Pet care experience
Premium Dog Care & Trainer
Hello, I have dedicated the past four years to training and caring for my own service dog, gaining hands-on experience in advanced obedience, emotional support, and psychiatric service dog (PSD) training. My expertise goes beyond basic pet care—I specialize in helping dogs become confident, well-mannered companions who provide meaningful support to their owners. I am currently building Peace Dogs, a program designed to empower individuals on their healing journey by guiding them in training their dogs as emotional support or psychiatric service dogs. Through this initiative, I work with dogs of all backgrounds, helping them develop the skills and temperament necessary to thrive in high-stimulation environments while maintaining a calm, supportive presence. What Sets Me Apart? ✔ Specialized Training – I have experience training emotional support and psychiatric service dogs, tailoring techniques to each dog’s personality and needs. ✔ Behavioral Expertise – Whether your dog is shy, excitable, or in need of structure, I adjust my approach to provide a safe and enriching experience. ✔ Premium, Personalized Care – I offer a high-touch, professional service that prioritizes your pet’s well-being, ensuring they receive top-tier care tailored to their routine. ✔ Balanced Socialization – My own trained service dog often accompanies me to sessions, providing a calm and structured socialization opportunity for dogs who would benefit from it. ✔ A Holistic Approach – I believe in the emotional and psychological well-being of both pets and their owners, ensuring each experience fosters growth and trust. With my expertise and commitment, I provide more than just pet sitting—I offer a tailored, enriching experience that helps your dog thrive.

Your beloved companion will be cared for with the same attention, love, and structured guidance as my own precious dog—always with your best interests in mind.
Ratings and reviews
Rosalinda was great! She walked our dog who was staying at a family member’s house while we were on vacation. She was great about communicating regularly with him to arrange the best time to walk our dog. She provided photos and updates on each walk. We would definitely book with her again!
Rosalinda was great with my pup, sent multiple pictures a day, and kept me up to date on all of the important things. She also took him for multiple walks per day and he definitely seemed to have enjoyed that. I felt completely comfortable with her taking care of my pup.
Rosalinda was great with Jade. Sent pics and let me know about her eating habits. I really appreciated that. Was convenient to my home.
I was nervous at first because my dog isn’t used to being around other dogs. but gets super excited to new people. Those energies combined can feel a bit overwhelming. Rosalinda was very patient and caring with my dog. She made the experience less nerve racking for me, she was kind and understanding to my dogs transitioning. Definitely would recommend her services, and will be taking my dog back!
Rosalinda kept me informed of Jade's sleep and eating habits. I felt very comfortable with leaving Jade with her. She sent pictures of Jade activities and informed me that she was happy being around her dog Ivory. I will use Rosalinda again.
As a former helicopter dog mom, I have to say that this super friendly and playful Dynamic Duo, was really instrumental in helping me trust other people with the care of my dog. My little dude is a sweet and exuberant, LOUD Australian Shepherd that requires a lot of mental stimulation and physical exercise. I'm always concerned that people and dogs might misinterpret his vocalizations and intense need to play...but not these two! Rosalinda (and Miss Ivory Bones!) came highly recommended by a neighbor and I contacted her when I was really in a bind; I am so so glad that I decided to reach out! The dogs got along great (Ivory is precious, sweet natured and always seems ready to play) and both me and my pup really took to Rosalinda's warmth and openness. She is really genuine in her curiosity and care for the animals that she looks after. I've always felt safe and comfortable leaving him in her care as he so clearly enjoys his time with them! That peace of mind is so invaluable to me. I highly recommend!

How My Schedule Benefits Your Dog: ✔ Consistent Availability – I have frequent availability throughout the week, making me an ideal choice for pet owners seeking a reliable, long-term care partner. ✔ Balanced Routine – With a schedule centered around training and care, your dog will enjoy a structured day filled with physical activity, mental stimulation, and relaxation. ✔ Priority Scheduling for Regular Clients – I am looking to build lasting relationships with discerning pet owners who want consistent, exceptional care for their dogs.

- To provide the highest level of care and ensure a stress-free, enriching experience, I like to gather key details about your dog before their stay. Below are some essential questions I ask, along with how I use this information to tailor their care. 1. Does your dog have any specific behavioral needs or triggers? 💡 Why it matters: Understanding any reactivity, fears, or training needs helps me create a safe and comfortable environment. If your dog is sensitive to certain sounds, experiences separation anxiety, or has specific behavioral quirks, I’ll adjust my approach accordingly. 2. What is your dog’s daily routine, including feeding, exercise, and rest? 💡 Why it matters: Consistency is key to reducing stress and maintaining your dog’s well-being. I strive to follow their established routine as closely as possible. 3. How does your dog interact with other animals and new people? 💡 Why it matters: My own dog is a lead trainer in my Peace Dogs program, and in many cases, she can help guide and socialize other dogs in a calm, structured way. If your dog would benefit from positive socialization with a well-trained, balanced companion, I can incorporate this into their care experience. However, if your dog prefers one-on-one attention, I am happy to accommodate that as well. 4. Does your dog have any health concerns, dietary restrictions, or medication needs? 💡 Why it matters: I carefully manage dietary needs and administer medications as directed, ensuring your pet stays healthy and comfortable throughout their time with me. 5. What training experience does your dog have? Are there any specific skills you’d like reinforced? 💡 Why it matters: If your dog is currently in training or you’d like me to reinforce positive behaviors, I seamlessly integrate structured learning into their day. 6. What activities does your dog enjoy most? 💡 Why it matters: Whether they love agility exercises, scent work, puzzle games, or long nature walks, I craft an experience that aligns with their preferences and energy level. 7. Are there any household rules or boundaries you’d like me to maintain? 💡 Why it matters: If your dog follows specific guidelines at home (e.g., no jumping on furniture, leash manners, crate training), I reinforce these behaviors to ensure consistency. By gathering this information in advance, I ensure that your dog not only receives excellent care but also enjoys a personalized, enriching experience tailored to their unique needs.
