Sandra was very accommodating and took the best care of my pup! She spoiled him with much love as he was her own. She also sent me pictures when I was away with updates on his daily routines, eating, walks and play dates. Her house has a great setup for outdoor running that’s fenced in. I would book with her again for sure!

Sandra provided excellent care for our pup and sent us pics and videos of her playing. I had no worries that she wasn’t in great hands! Thank you

Sandra was absolutely wonderful. We had a last minute request and it was our first time leaving our dog with anyone else besides grandma. She sent us photo updates, putting us at ease. Teddy had a blast and was full of excitement and a wagging tail when we picked him up. We would definitely love to have her care for him again.

Sandra took care of my two dogs while I was out of town, and she was amazing! Super sweet with them, always on time, and even sent me pics while I was away. My pups loved her I’d definitely call her again. Totally recommend her if you need someone reliable and caring for your pets. Isabella Naranjo l.

Hi! Just wanted to say Sandra did a great job watching my cat, Luna. She’s super friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly loves animals. Luna usually hides from people, but she warmed up to Sandra right away. I’d totally recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! Nicolás Torres Z

Schedule

Pet care is the heart of my daily routine. From early in the morning until the end of the day, I organize my time according to the needs of each dog under my care. Each walk, meal, game or moment of rest is part of a routine designed with love and responsibility. I make sure to maintain consistent schedules, adapt activities according to the dog's age and energy, and always be attentive to its physical and emotional well-being. More than a task, taking care of dogs is an essential part of my day to day and something I deeply enjoy.

Safety, trust & environment

1. Professional organization of space I have a clean, safe and adapted area according to the size and personality of each pet. I use beds, toys, and differentiated areas for rest, play and food. 2. Structured but flexible routine I plan the day with fixed schedules for walks, meals, baths, and rest time. I adapt to the specific needs of each pet (medication, diet, energy level). 3. Communication with the owners I maintain constant contact with the owners through messages, photos or videos. I inform you about how your pet is, if he eats well, if he plays, or if I notice something unusual. 4. Hygiene and well-being guaranteed I clean the spaces and utensils daily. If required, I give baths or perform basic hygiene care. 5. Security and responsibility I never leave pets alone or in a cage I know basic first aid for animals 6. Love, attention and respect I treat each pet as if it were mine. I strive to make them feel comfortable, calm and loved, like in their own home.

A typical day

A Typical Day as Your Dog Sitter – Full of Tail Wags and Fun! As your dedicated dog sitter, my goal is to make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. Here's what a typical day with me looks like: Morning: We start the day with a refreshing walk to stretch our legs and explore the neighborhood. After that, it’s breakfast time followed by some play — whether it’s fetch, tug-of-war, or a squeaky toy session, your dog will have a blast. Midday: This is usually a calm time for rest and cuddles. I also take the opportunity to brush their coat or work on basic commands if they’re in training. Mental stimulation is just as important as physical! Afternoon: Time to burn some energy! We might go for a second walk, visit a local dog park, or play some fun games in the backyard. I also love using treat puzzles or hide-and-seek games to keep their mind active and engaged. Evening: After dinner, we wind down with some quiet time and lots of affection. Whether your dog loves belly rubs, lounging on the couch, or just being near someone, I’m there to make sure they feel relaxed and content. Every dog has their own personality, and I always tailor the day to their individual needs and preferences. Whether your pup is playful, shy, energetic, or a total cuddlebug — they’ll be in loving hands.
