Pet care experience

Away from home and missing my pups

Apart from working after-school at my uncle’s pet hotel in El Salvador. My greatest pet experience has been caring and raising my two border collies and my poodle… I can handle crazy energetic dogs. I have basic training experience but what I excel and have experience at is giving your pup the attention and love they deserve to have a great time and feel comfortable.

Doggy Day Care • Juni 21, 2026

Samuel and his partner were amazing. We were nervous about leaving our baby since she is 16 and has health issues and never has used this service before but they were so gentle and attentive with Bella. I was getting updates with pictures and videos during her stay which made me feel more comfortable. Will definitely recommend to anyone.

Sam took good care of Z. Communication was in point and he was flexible with my schedule. I'll book him again

Samuel is a great find here. Thank you so much for taking care of Basil for the weekend. I really appreciated the consistent updates and cute photos of my pup through the weekend I was gone.

They were so great!!! Woody loved them and came home so tired in the best way. They were super communicative and provided lots of photos and updates.

Schedule

I currently work part time and have a very flexible schedule. I also have a car, so depending on the distance and day I could be willing to pick up or drop off. I want to take your pup on my daily jog or hang out with them while I do my homework.

Safety, trust & environment

I have had a great time since I came to the USA, but my daily dose of doggy seratonin has been the one thing missing. I live in a very well lit apartment with no balcony. There’s a lot of walkable areas around my apartment. Additionally my work is a block away from my apartment, so I never have to leave for more than a couple hours.

A typical day

I go for a run every morning and it would be great to have good company. I love to play with dogs and always carry treats with me. I’m young and energetic so with dogs I like to play fetch, frisby, and also cuddle when it’s time to settle down.

Please connect with me about any special needs your dog has. I’m also happy to accommodate any special diets that your dog has as long as you can provide me with it. If possible provide me with some of their favorite toys and let me know about their favorite treats.
