Hi! I moved to NY six years ago from Japan with my two beloved rescue cats. Previously, I honed my skills as both a Kindergarten teacher and a dedicated pet sitter in Tokyo, where I was fortunate to build a loyal clientele and gain invaluable experience. In El Salvador, I had the honor of assisting at various animal shelters. My tasks ranged from bathing dogs to providing temporary housing for all kinds of animals in need. My passion for animals extends beyond just cats and dogs; I love all creatures, from birds to lizards, and am fascinated by the unique and complex personalities each one brings. If you’re seeking someone who will care for and appreciate your pet as the unique individual they are, I’m your human! I enjoy being physically active, which is ideal for high-energy dogs needing to burn off some of that extra zest, but I won’t complain if all they want to do is cuddle on the couch all-day  At the moment, my schedule is quite flexible and I’m available on most days. I would kindly ask that bookings be made at least one week in advance to allow for a proper meet and greet. Thank you for considering me as your trusted pet sitter. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved companions soon! Additional Info.: * I have my own insurance on top of Rover's * Overnight stays are not the same as constant care. If your pet cannot be left alone for more than 2 hours you might want to opt for this. * I also offer 60-min drop-ins. The default ones are 30 minutes.
