If me and my cousin Antonio are chosen for your pets Sitters you can count on us to keep them safe, and show them lots of love. Typically we assigned designated areas for your pups so that they have a safe space every-time they come. There is water left out all day so they can clench their thirst. The food bowls however are given at owner’s instructions for feeding times in designated areas too ensure they are eating properly and safely .Usually we start our day around 7am and wind down around 9 pm. Depending on the and amount of pets during their stay, if low population we will go for a walk, play outside or play inside. If higher population pets will be allowed to play with other pets unless instructed not to. Being away from home can sometimes be very scary to our pets ,so, we do ask that you bring the following applicable items: crate, bed, blanket, food & treats.

Pet care experience

Never lived a day in my life without a dog and i could never imagine it. I started pet sitting since 2019 with my mother in Brentwood Ca and have moved out too Madera and bringing my services with me. I hope too build enough clients that I can open a pet sitting hotel one day. In my home I currently have two dogs on pit/weenie mix (7) and German shepherd (3) both fixed, super friendly and love meeting new friends. I have 2 outside cats that occasionally come hangout when they run out of food. I strive too make an active effort of your pet’s safety at all times . This means I never leave your pet unattended and am always available for check ins too easy your mind. I have a cousin that helps me run my service at home too ensure that your pet will never be alone. I have worked with dogs and cats all shapes, sizes, and ages. All I ask is that you bring whatever your pet needs too feel most comfortable, a blanket or bed , food a favorite toy and any other accommodations your pet may need too ensure they feel safe and comfortable in my home.

When we need to leave Leo at a dog sitter, we feel so confident that he will be well taken care of. I sort of think even Leo looks forward to his little vacations😊

Rafael and his wife are the absolute best. Their house has a perfect set up for dogs and my dogs love staying with them. They get excited as soon as we turn into their neighborhood.
