A baby scientist who loves doggos!

Pet care experience

***I'm an Immunology Ph.D. student based in La Jolla. While I have a flexible schedule, it's important your fur babies are fine being left alone for a few hours.*** 💐About me💐 I grew up with dogs (mostly Rhodesian Ridgebacks) and cats, so I am quite experienced and at ease around animals. I make every effort to provide personalized attention to each pet's distinct personality and needs. I make sure that every animal receives the best care and attention possible, from special diets to extra cuddles. You can count on me to care for your pets and give them the love and attention they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

While caring for your babies, I will do my best to create a cozy and friendly environment with access to food, toys, and affection. I will keep their routines consistent by keeping their living areas clean, sticking to regular feeding and exercise schedules, and giving them plenty of attention and playtime to make them feel loved and cared for. I will be updating you daily on how they are fairing. In addition, I will take care and be respectful of your homes while you are away.

Information Tanaka R. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know energy level of the dog, favorite activities, allergies, likes, dislikes, and overall routine. I pay strong attention to your pets communication, but some things are easier shared by word.

A typical day

I like taking the dogs on walks, and discovering the neighborhood. The dogs are usually more familiar with places than me so I also let them walk me places haha. I also enjoy playing with the dogs and sometimes reading to them. Scratches are a must!

Availability

I primarily offer house sitting services because I think it is easier on both you and your fur babies. It also makes it easier to keep their routines consistent and help with you not being around. I am comfortable with longer stays. If need be, and with advanced notice, I can also provide daytime house sitting services. Rates and dates can always be changed before a sitting is officially booked, so please don't hesitate to reach out and we can work together.
