Experienced and very trustworthy pet lover

Hello, My name is Rodrigo and I live in Nine Elms - Central London Since I can remember I have loved and have an affinity with all animals. I'm definitely more of an animal's person than a person's person. I am happy either way staying at someone's house looking after, feeding, playing and entertaining their pets, boarding them at my own place or out and about walking their 4 legged friend. However, your pet's safety and wellbeing is always my biggest priority.

Rodrigo and his partner took amazing care of Juno when I was in London for a couple of days. I had a nightmare with a breakdown and they were flexible enough to let me change the plans at the last minute. Juno had a great time with them and they clearly love dogs!

Artemis enjoyed a month-long stay with Rodrigo and came back healthy, energetic, and happy as usual—this was her third time having fun with Rodrigo! Rodrigo was communicative and we really appreciated that Artemis was safe and well for an extended period of time.

We booked Rodrigo based on his excellent reviews, but unfortunately our experience didn’t quite match what we expected. He arrived around 20 minutes late to pick up the keys from our neighbours, which caused some initial concern. Communication could also have been better — we often had to reach out ourselves to ask for updates or photos of Mila, and there were long gaps between check-ins. Rodrigo was polite and took care of the basics, but we didn’t feel Mila was fully comfortable with him. The updates we received were minimal and didn’t give us much reassurance while we were away. We also had the impression that Mila may have been left alone longer than we had agreed. Overall, we appreciate that she was safe and well when we returned, but we would have hoped for more proactive communication and engagement during his stay.
