Legal Advocate and Lover of Animals

Pet care experience

I've been caring for animals and pets (dogs, cats, parrots, raccoons, monkeys, fish and hamsters) since I was a child. I am a legal advocate for pets and the wildlife. I also have experience with diabetic cats. I know how to check for glucose levels and how to inject insulin.

René took great care of our 3 cats while we were away. She was very communicative, giving us both status updates and photos frequently.

Rene treated Hunter and Felix just like his own family. Ensure to always lock up and message without hesitating. Took instructions very well. Looking forward to Rene caring for our furbabies in the future.

Rene is my go to when I need a pet sitter and trust him with all my pets! He really loves animals and I can go away and not worry about anything while I’m gone. I highly recommend.

While away on vacation, Rene took care of my Himalayan princess (Cheepa) and treated her like the queen that she is! Cheepa connected immediately with Rene, with his warm and fun personality! Rene regularly updated me while I was away, so I was assured that Cheepa was in great hands! Overall, very great and stress-free experience!

I believe that everyone has their own philosophy when it comes to pet care. Respecting other pet owners' instructions is critical. As for myself, pet care involves providing love, company, attention, play time, outdoor time, food, water changes and cuddling.

Information René B. would like to know about your pet

Full disclosure of your pet is necessary. I need to know anything you believe is necessary to keep them safe, happy and stress free. In addition, if they need a muzzle for walks please let me know and bring them with you. If you prefer that they do not go for walks and instead get exercise in the backyard, that is completely fine. Communication is always key :)

A typical day

I enjoy spending time with pets, I talk to them, I sing to them, I sit next to them and enjoy their company, we play with toys if they like it, we do walks around the neighborhood during non-busy hours (to avoid coming into contact with many other dogs, this is always done to mitigate any possible altercations with other dogs), and they can run and play in the backyard whenever they feel like it, as long as the weather conditions and the owner's instructions allow me to do so.
