Searching for a furry friend

Pet care experience

I stop to talk to every dog I see walking down the street. I work remotely and would love to have a little buddy to hang with and walk during the work day. My roommate has a sweet cat that keeps me company but I’d love to find a pupper/doggo to love on a daily basis. I volunteer at an animal shelter just to interact with the dogs. I hope to find a furry friend that I can take on walks by the lake and play with in between my conference calls. I’ve taken care of a lot of buddies. From healthy puppies to senior dogs who needed meds administered. Let’s meet so your dog can sniff me out and tell you I’m the real deal. I speak baby talk to all my furry friends and always ask them about their day.

Rocio was awesome! Niles can be nervous with new people but she managed to win him over and make sure he was loved while we were gone.

Rocio is simply the best! She’s thoughtful, professional and incredibly reliable. Rocio went above and beyond taking care of my cat, Chai, while I was out of town for work. She sent detailed updates with photos/videos every day and I had complete peace of mind knowing she was with my fur baby. I cannot recommend her enough and already look forward to her taking care of Chai next time!

Rocio what a find you are!!! I could tell from the start that Bear was is great, capable, loving hands. You picked him up daily at the designated time, reported on all his "poos and pees”. Gave me a map of his daily walks and pics. I never worried about him while on vacation and will most def call you again.

Let me know if your dog has any special quirks or have any specific needs. I’ll ask during the meet and greet but it’s helpful to know ahead of time.

A typical day

We will go on walks by the lake front and around the neighborhoods. I love playing with dogs because I get to see their little faces getting so happy and it brings me so much joy. Not sure how corny that sounds but it’s true. Dogs brighten up my day, without fail.
