Your Pet’s Second Family

Having chemistry with pets is a real thing. Research shows that puppies can sniff out people’s emotions by smell alone. They decide if they like us or not. Thus, selecting the right sitter contributes to their happiness too. With me, your puppy will be taken care with much love and attention as at home with you. They will follow their same exact routine for meals, walks, fun and sleep times. You will get fast updates with cute pictures. 🇪🇸Hablo Español.

Mercedes was wonderful with our 8-month-old puppy! We had never left her alone with anyone before and felt safe and secure with Mercedes providing us with regular photos and updates of our happy girl. Definitely wouldn't hesitate to book her again.

Mercedes was an incredible sitter start to finish! This was the first we’ve left our pup with anyone and I was extremely nervous. She sent photos and updates all throughout the day and treated our baby with lots of love. Also her dad was very sweet with our boy. Highly recommend and will be using her services again!

I had a last minute neeed for a pet sitter and Mercedes really stepped up to the plate. She was so communicative with me and you can tell she really cares about your pet as if they’re her own. Overall it was so lovely working with her!

Milo had a great time with Mercedes!! He is a very nervous dog and she took him on walks, gave him his treats, and the care he needed to feel comfortable! She also was extremely communicative and sent lots of pics during the day! We will definitely book her again in the future

Our baby had such a good time with Mercedes and her dad!!! Mercedes would update us pretty often with pictures on how our puppy was doing and Dalia seemed pretty comfortable her whole stay. I would definitely recommend Mercedes to anyone looking for a puppy sitter cause you can tell she loves dogs so much!

Schedule

From my experience, there are two things to ensure the well-being of pets. First, having contact with nature. I like to take them for walks to explore and smell. Secondly, enjoying extra love and attention: I live with my retired parents who like to play and cuddle with them.

My opinion is that it is very important to listen to you, your instructions, and to ask you questions to have an idea of your puppy’s personality and preferences.
