I work as an online English and Spanish teacher from home, which allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care throughout the day. Because I work remotely, I can provide companionship, supervision, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and plenty of attention while maintaining their regular routine. I understand that every pet has different needs, so I do my best to adapt my schedule to their habits and preferences. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, outdoor walks, quiet companionship, or simply having someone nearby, I’m able to provide a calm and caring presence throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I know how much our pets become part of our family. My dog Nami (I called her my baby) has taught me just how important trust, consistency, and patience are when caring for an animal. She is skittish, and through her I’ve learned to pay attention to the small things — changes in behavior, routines, energy levels, and all the little details that help a dog feel safe and understood. I know that leaving your pet with someone else can feel stressful, so my goal is to help both you and your pet feel comfortable and at ease. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar and reassuring. I’m here to help you :) Since I work from home, I’m able to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care and provide plenty of companionship, attention, and supervision throughout the day. Whether it’s going for walks, sticking to feeding schedules, playing, or simply keeping them company, I aim to create a calm, safe, and positive environment where they can feel at home with me.

Information Romina C. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me everything about your dog! Their favourite things, their funny habits, their fears, their triggers, or anything else you think I should know. My own experience with Nami has taught me that every dog is different, and that the best thing we can do is pay attention to who they are instead of expecting them to fit a certain mold. I love getting to know each dog’s personality and little quirks, and I’m always happy to learn what helps them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. All they need is to feel understood. Don’t we all? ❤️

A typical day

One of the biggest things I’ve learned from Nami❤️ is that enrichment looks different for every dog, and even for the same dog on different days. Sometimes she’s happiest playing fetch and being active, while other days all she wants to do is sniff around, explore, or work on a puzzle. Because of that, I’ve learned to pay attention to what a dog needs in the moment and adapt activities to their personality and energy level. I enjoy finding different ways to keep dogs engaged, mentally stimulated, and happy while respecting their individual preferences. Nami has been my mentor :)

Rescue Dog Mom Who Understands Pups

Pet care experience

Hey everyone! I got tired of petsitting for my friends for free lol, so here I am officially offering my services. If you're looking for someone with real experience, genuine love for animals, and attentive care, I’m your person. I grew up surrounded by animals back in Chile and have always been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. I’m a dog mom, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, caring, and truly attentive to the furry members of your family. My own dog, Nami, is a rescue and a very sensitive, anxious girl. Caring for her has taught me so much about patience, communication, and understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. Living with her every day has given me hands-on experience with routines, exercise, enrichment, health monitoring, and creating a calm and safe environment — especially during challenging moments like when she gets triggered by loud noises. Those are the moments where gentle guidance, patience, and comfort matter the most. I’ve also helped friends by safely traveling with and transporting their dogs internationally (I really love reunions hehe), including bringing one dog from Chile and another from Mexico. These experiences taught me responsibility, adaptability, and how to help pets feel safe and comfortable during potentially stressful situations. I’m a full-time private teacher working from home, which allows me to spend a lot of time with the pets in my care — we can definitely keep each other company throughout the day. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic care routines, and adapting to each pet’s individual needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own, with kindness, patience, and respect. And of course… if allowed, cuddles are always included 🐾

Romina looked after my boy Fedor and he instantly fell in love with her. She was very sweet to him and really understands canine language. She also texted me with updates and pictures, which made me feel reassured. I highly recommend Romina and I'm sure Fedor would be delighted to be with her again. Gracias, Romina!

Romina is kind, caring and most importantly an animal lover. Her attention to detail with our pup is admirable. Our dog is so excited to see her all the time. She’s also extremely flexible with time. Thanks for all your help Romina!!
