Can’t wait to meet your furball!!
Pet care experience
We are dog trainers with over 14 years of experience combined, and the owners of International Pet Academy, LLC. We’ve taken care of dogs (ours, friends and clients) for several years. We have had a Great Dane, Weimaraner, Golden Retriever and Poodles in the past, so we’re familiar with giant and high energy breeds. But we love all breeds and try to learn as much as we can every day since we know that with dogs it’s not “one size fits all”, every dog has their own personality and needs. The most important thing for us is bonding with the dogs we sit/walk so we can enjoy all the fun activities we'll do. We work fulltime as dog trainers but still have availability for weekly walks and visits on weekdays.
Reviews
Alfonso and Maria are fantastic. We love them and they are so helpful.
Alfonso has taken care of my senior dogs many times now. He always does an exceptional job. He sends daily reports an pictures, but what I value the most I that he spends quality time with my precious furry family and takes good care of them. I can count on Alfonso every time I need to leave town. Thanks!
Alfonso is important part of Asher’s day. I’m grateful for their bond. I can’t thank Alfonso enough for taking care of Asher. Having an husky takes a lot of energy and how Alfonso matches the energy when he greets Asher is pleasure to watch. I’m super confident that Asher is in safe hands on his walks with Alfonso.
Maria and Alfonso have been so dependable and flexible! And our pups just love them!! Highly recommend!!

We only offer leashed walks as a safety precaution and determine the length and pace of every walk by assessing each dog’s condition at the time (always extra aware of any ailments or extreme weather). No dog park visits because of liability issues.

Let us know if your dog has any special needs, what he likes and doesn’t. We like to provide exercise and enrichment to cover all your dog’s needs.
A typical day
We walk around the neighborhood or go for hikes on close by trails rain or shine unless otherwise preferred. If the visit is just at home we provide potty breaks, play time, enrichment and bonding (brushing, petting…) for the duration of the stay (30 or 60 min). In the case of housesitting we strive to provide a routine as close as what the pups are used to, always within our possibilities and terms of service.
