I am home full-time, love dogs

Pet care experience

I had babysat dogs when I was a teenager, I enjoy having long walks with dogs, I treat them as my own, I own dogs since I was little, back in my country in the Dominican Rep. The longest period of time I had a dog was for 14 yrs. I am very good with dogs, I have lots of patients, I have lots of love to share with them. I care about their health, emotions, and needs. I own two dogs, a German Shepherd who is almost 4 months and a Golden Retriever almost 6 months; both girls. I consider dogs part of my family, and I take good care of them like I would with my own children, who also love animals and nature. I have tough them to protect, respect and care for all animals in general. My children are 7, 7 (twins) and an almost 5 yrs of age, all boys. It is very important to get to know a person who will take care and protect your beloved furbabies, I consider myself the right person to take care of your furbabies; I am very responsible, love dogs regarding their breed or condition. I always put other people's needs before mine; one day, I pray I can make it and get my own shelter to help homeless dogs and provide the basics to low-income families, such as food, vaccinations, medicine, etc. ... that's my dream (goal) and I hope I can accomplish that in the future. I want to start here step by step, I know I have a long way to go, and that is not easy; but maybe, I could meet the right person that could guide me to accomplish my goal in the future.

This sitter was deceptive in her rate per day. She advertised $37.00 per day but actually tried to charge $88.00 + a $40.00 up charge due to a holiday being included. She was also told prior to booking that we were experiencing behavioral issues with the dog. He was barking incessantly and we needed him boarded to get him away from a female in heat . After taking him she began messaging me at 12:30 am complaining that the dog was barking a lot. Then claimed he was infested with ticks. These "ticks" turned out to be his nipples. She also attempted to collect additional fees. We terminated this stay less than 24 hours into the stay. I am rating this sitter at a request from Rover and not out of a sense of anger.

Sent me constant updates of my dog. Wyllow was exhausted after bringing her home. Which means she was kept busy with Wilkas kids and two dogs. Will definitely use her again!

Very pleased with Wilka's handling of Vaashti, my 3 moth + old doxie. On- time and leaves a message about how the time spent with her went. Thanks

Information Wilka B. would like to know about your pet

The dogs' diet, if the dog is allergic to something, the dog's behavior at home, the dogs health, what is the dog's favorite game, food, and activities. I don't have any preferences, but the dogs need to be friendly to strangers because if the dogs are not friendly I can't do my job, or take the dog for walks and activities.

A typical day

playtime, private naps, walks, love, go to parks near me (open field), attention, lost of running and exercising
