Professional care!

Pet care experience

I became a first responder to care for others on their worst days. My own pup has kept me company during mine, especially when work becomes a bit stressful. Overall he has completed my little family 🐶👨‍👧 I wouldn't mind spending some of my free time caring for your pets. I myself have a Doberman named Achilles who is such a affectionate pup. I have spent the last year training him on obedience, commands, socialization, food aggression, leash behavior, discipline and recall. My dog is a perfect example of how my style of care is. Highlight on providing a loving environment mixed in with some structure for routine. I receive many compliments on how well behaved he is. I strongly believe that our pets reflect highly on the type of character their owner has. Dobermans are a high energy breed and require a lot of mental stimulation to maintain a healthy balance within the home. I do live an active lifestyle so physically keeping up with your pet is never an issue. Providing them with a fun and caring place to enjoy themselves is the goal. I reference my dog so that you can get a general idea of what experience has been gained. Along with the experience I have had from my childhood until an adult helping care for a wide variety of animals from strays to family members pets or friends while they were out of town. Each came with their own personality and preference on care and I can proudly say that I have been successful providing each with a high level of care while they spent time around me. The breeds I spent the most time around through family & friends would mostly be Dogs: Great Danes, Pit bulls, German shepherds, Poodles, and Dobies. Cats: Maine coon, and Tabby cats “Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.”

I found Santino very conscientious and caring for my dog while I was disabled, I would definitely ask for him to care for my dog again should I become sick again.

Very smart young man. I thought nobody can handle my pets, but My pets responded to him great. He showed professionalism and respect, I would definitely refer him to anybody.

Anytime I am providing care to one of your pets, my goal will be aligned with what I expect from sitters when I hire them to watch my pup during trips I can't take him on. That will be to maintain that same feeling of routine and care for your pet that you provide for them.

Information Santino L. would like to know about your pet

Questions I will typically ask What your dog likes or dislike? If there are any behavioral issues that you are aware of? Any special needs or care that they may require? Food aggression? Owners preference on correcting pets behavior? History of socialization around other animals (cats, dogs, bird etc) I find that if you provide me with a general idea of what a typical day for you and your pet looks like when you are home I can do my best to mirror that so that it does not disrupt their daily routine when you return.

A typical day

Interactive toys, walks (weather permitted), pet puzzles, chew toys and exploration are a few different ways to stimulate a pets mind. Needless to say, each pet has their own preferred form of entertainment. You know yours best so feel free to let me know what your pet enjoys.

I currently work in EMS as a first responder on the night shift. I am also a student doing pre requisites for nursing. During the day I just work on homework or study so making time to care for your pets is no challenge at all! To be honest when I am hired to dog walk I just use it as a warm up before heading to the gym lol. When I am hired to pet sit or do a drop in, it is an excuse to just spend time around a wide variety of loving breeds which is a win to me.
