Taking care with Love & Patience 🐾

We LOVE animals! I have experience working with dogs and cats for 16 years when I started my own animal shelter in Colombia, I ran a pet store, I've foster animals and now I'd love to share my expertise with your fur babies ! I’m an expert with puppy training and senior care and also grooming if your furry baby needs it! Me and my husband both grew up with dogs as pets, and we love having them around. We have 15 rescue dogs in Colombia and they live with my sister there. We take great care of our animals, and we would love to care for your animals while you are unable to take them on your trip! We are both experienced in caring for animals with extra medical needs - We have cared for animals with eye problems, ear problems, and also diabetic issues. We don't have any children and live in a very friendly neighborhood where we can take your dog for walks on a normal basis. Book with us and your pets will be well taken care of and have a great time!

Veronica made our dogs feel at home and loved. One of our dogs has special needs (diabetes and blindness) and her meals and medications were timely, which is very important. Veronica and her husband were welcoming and accommodating to both of our dogs and we felt very comfortable leaving them for the weekend. We hope to bring our pups back for future trips!

Veronica was so gracious about extending our dog’s stay last minute when we had a medical emergency! She took great care of Hank and sent us regular updates. She was very responsive and we would definitely use her again!

Veronica was super communicative and thoughtful with sharing photos of our pup when she did drop in visits for us the past two days. We will absolutely reach out again when we need pup care in the future.

Veronica is wonderful! She took such great care of Balto. She communicated with us every day and sent photos and videos. Balto settled in with her routine really quickly, and it was clear that he felt comfortable, happy and relaxed in her home. We highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

I take care of my furry guests like if they are in their own home, with love and patience making them feel safe and loved in the time I’m with them. For pet sitting in my home: Safety First: My apartment is a secure and confortable 4th floor with elevator and we have a secure fenced dog park a few steps from our building. I ALWAYS use in every walk a leash for the dogs and my eyes are always on them for supervision and never let them by themselves Comfort and Enrichment: Inside, your pet will have plenty of space to relax and feel comfortable. I provide cozy bedding and engaging toys to keep them entertained. We'll also enjoy plenty of playtime and cuddles, just like they're used to at home. Individualized Care: I'm happy to follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs they may have. For pet sitting in the client's home: Respect and Responsibility: I understand that your home is your pet's safe space. I will treat it with the utmost respect, following your instructions for alarm systems, cleaning up after your pet, and maintaining their usual routine. Peace of Mind: While I'm there, I can also take care of tasks like bringing in the mail, watering plants, and rotating lights to give your home a lived-in look while you're away. Communication is Key: I believe in regular communication, so I'll send you text or photo updates so you can see how your furry friend is doing.

A typical day

A typical day is filled with fun activities like playtime! We love playing with furry friends. We'll shower your pet with lots of love and cuddles throughout the day. We don’t have a back yard in our apartment but we have in the complex a closed dog park where we can play and run. If you're comfortable, we can also go for walks around our neighborhood.

Hey, just letting you know, I'd love to learn a bit more about your pets before we get together. What's their feeding schedule like? Are they crate trained? If not I can help with it How do they typically act around new people? (Friendly, shy, etc.) This helps me know what to expect and how to best interact with them. Let me know if your dog has any special needs! I can take care of dogs with special needs with all the love and patience to continue treatment as needed during the stay in my home.
