Pet care experience

Pets are my life, especially dogs!

I am 60 years old and I have had dogs for as long as I can remember. As a child I would take in homeless dogs behind my mother's back since she was not an animal lover. At the moment I own 2 pit bulls, 1 rottweiler, and 4 chihuahuas. I have taken care of hurt birds and cats as well. My aspiration in life is to have a rescue home for animals. You can trust that your pets would be in loving and warming hands.

Safety, trust & environment

I transition my dogs from in and out of my house. I do have a fairly large fenced back yard. I keep the pit bulls and Rottweiler separated from the chihuahuas inside and outside. My chihuahuas sleep in my bed or in their dog beds. The big dogs sleep in the laundry room on their dog beds.

Rosa is very sweet and professional. I can tell she loves dogs. We know our dog Tom is in good hands with her- he loves when Rosa comes to stay!

Rosa did a fantastic job caring for my animals while I was away. She gave the medication necessary to my dog and went above and beyond caring for my sick guinea pig by hand feeding her and giving medication. I know I can always trust her. Thank you Rosa!

Rosa was very friendly, professional and most of all she is a dog lover. We will be using her and Rover when we go on vacations in the future.

Schedule

I am currently a janitor but would like to work as animal sitter full time. I have to take my grand child to school at 9:00am and pick him up at 3:30pm. I can work a couple hours in between drop off and pick up time and after 5pm when my daughter gets back from work to watch her son. I would be more available on the weekends.

Rosa can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I would like to know if your dog is easily excitable when walking around neighborhood around other dogs so I can avoid walking around other dogs.
