Availability
I offer a flexible schedule from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with my busiest window typically being between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM. To ensure I have enough time to plan the perfect enrichment activities, please book your walks or visits at least 24 hours in advance. Safety & Handling: A safe walk is a happy walk! For everyone’s well-being, I take extra care when assessing large, powerful, or reactive dogs that tend to pull on the leash. Open communication about your dog’s strength and triggers is essential so we can enjoy a secure, controlled, and stress-free experience together.

About Rubens C.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I usually follow the tutors' recommendations regarding food, water, electricity, bathroom, etc. It is very important that the owner makes all the information about his pet clear before the visit/walk.
Information Rubens C. would like to know about your pet
I’m all about planning the perfect day! Before our walks, I design outdoor enrichment activities tailored to the weather, traffic, and your dog's energy. For kittens, I bring the fun and stimulation right to their home environment. Safety is my top priority: I provide secure transport and I’m meticulous with home security (keys, locks, and alarms). You’ll stay in the loop via the Rover app with updates on potty breaks, meals, and plenty of action shots! Every activity is customized to your pet’s age, health, and unique personality.
A typical day
Our days are packed with stimulation! We explore park trails filled with natural scents, games, and runs to burn energy. For senior dogs, I keep a gentle pace with light strolls and plenty of companionship. I’m strictly focused on well-being: ensuring shade and hydration in the summer, and proper care during snow and winter cold. You’ll receive detailed reports on 'number 1 and 2' and any health observations. I finish with scheduled feeding, oral medication if needed, and lots of cuddles!

Enrichment Dog Walking Specialist
Pet care experience
Pets are not our whole life, but they make up our whole life. I believe that we can learn a lot from the affection and loyalty of pets. Having good times with your partner depends on the good quality of life your pet has. When your pet walks and plays daily, its quality of life increases. Thirty minutes of walking or playing will prevent illness, socialize your pet, control weight, increase muscle mass and other benefits. I meet these needs by walking your dog, entertaining them in a healthy and professional manner. I'm a professional walker who seeks the well-being and enrichment of your pet's walk. Being a Dogwalker is a fantastic exchange of experiences with these remarkable beings. Let's Rock !
