Life without animals is incomplete.
Pet care experience
I have 4 years experience working with animals hands on at The Humane Society. I am often the go to person in my family regarding animal advice and guidance. I believe in a fear free environment for all living creatures and use positive reinforcement to communicate with animals. I am available to work around your schedule for walks and play Thursday - Sunday. I am also available for house sitting with a 2 week advance notice. I have worked with dogs of all experience levels when it comes to leash walking. I give nervous or shy dogs time and work on trust building through techniques learned from my experience at a dog shelter. I also have experience with escape artists and take every precaution to ensure the safety and security of your pet.
Reviews
Ro was great with our dogs. We look forward to working with her again!
Ro has created a special relationship with my pup! Harley loves her! She is always professional! I love to see her teach Harley new things!!! I am learning a lot from her as well with puppy training!!
Rocio is a fantastic animal owner and works with animals professionally as well! She’s owned multiple dogs and is always taking care of the feral kitties or any animal in need. She is super responsive, responsible, and has a huge heart. Rocio will care for your pets just like her own, and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of services!
Rocio is the only person I have trusted with my fur children. She is an excellent person to work with a animals. I felt even more secure knowing she worked with a vet for years. She is loving, attentive, and really loves what she does. I would definitely recommend Rocio to anyone!
About Rocio J.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Every animal I've encountered is as unique as every person I have met. I prefer to let them set the pace so a foundation of trust can be built. I am also always curious about learning new techniques and skills that will further enhance my ability to communicate with them and allow them to relax and become comfortable in my presence.
Information Rocio J. would like to know about your pet
Allergies, medical conditions, and health history of course are a priority. I also prefer to know as much about a dog's behavioral history as possible so that I can have a better understanding of what my best approach would be. I like to know what their triggers are, so I don't put them in a position where they feel unsafe. I don't ever want to set a dog up for failure.
A typical day
I love walks and play. I also try to give them a full sensory experience with the use of hidden treats and reward based interactions. I like to meet the dog where they are at and build from there.

I often joke that I have more fur friends than human friends. Besides being the lucky caretaker of the animals in my life, I rejoice in the company of the pets who reside with my family and friends (🤫 And sometimes am more excited to see them).
