Your Dog’s Second Favorite Place
Looking for a home where your pup will be loved like family? That's exactly what I provide. Your dog won't just be staying with me, they'll become part of our family. ❤️ I intentionally keep my bookings small so every pup receives the one-on-one attention they deserve, with plenty of cuddles, daily walks, playtime, and personalized care. Safety is always my top priority, so I carefully introduce every dog and recommend a meet-and-greet before boarding to make sure both you and your pup feel comfortable. I have several years of hands-on experience providing both boarding and in-home pet care, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and have experience administering medications, following detailed routines, and creating a calm, low-stress environment. I'm also experienced with shy or anxious dogs and always let them adjust at their own pace. Because I work from home, your dog will enjoy frequent potty breaks, close supervision, and lots of companionship throughout the day. Whether your pup loves to play or prefers a quiet nap on the couch, I'll tailor their care to their individual needs. I also send daily photo and video updates so you'll always know how your best friend is doing. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving home away from home where your dog feels like family and you can enjoy complete peace of mind. I can't wait to meet you and your pup!

Ratings and reviews
Ximena did an absolutely incredible job taking care of my boys! She truly treated them like they were her own! She went above and beyond to ensure that they felt loved and cared for. She was very communicative and pro-active which was great for an anxious dog mom, like me!
She took excellent care of my dog and always kept me updated with photos and status reports. Highly recommended.
This was my first experience with a pet sitter. Ximena was wonderful with Barney and stayed in contact throughout the day. She was very responsive and sent photos and videos throughout the day to keep me updated. I could tell Barney had a blast and came home happy and relaxed. I could tell Ximena truly cared and made sure Barney had a great day and got along with the other pups. Will definitely be booking again!
This was the first time I’ve ever left my dog with a rover sitter and Ximena was fantastic. She was very communicative throughout the stay. I can tell that my dog enjoyed his time with her.
It was another great experience! Ximena is so responsive and sends videos/photos everyday. Remi loves staying there and it’s comforting knowing he’s happy when we’re away!
Awesome. Great communication and my dog loved her

Schedule
Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life, so welcoming another dog into my routine feels completely natural. I work from home full-time, which allows me to plan my day around feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I keep a consistent routine because I know it helps dogs settle in quickly and feel safe in a new environment. I'm also experienced with administering medications, as one of my own senior dogs takes daily heart medication. Whether your pup loves to play, go for walks, or simply curl up for a nap, I'll make sure they receive the personalized care, love, and attention they deserve throughout their stay.

Safety, trust & environment
I keep things simple and follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and at ease. That means feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you share. In my home, I provide a calm, clean space with lots of attention and care. In your home, I make sure your pet stays on their routine and feels safe while you’re away. I also have experience with senior dogs, medications, and pups that need a little extra patience. I intentionally keep my bookings small, so every dog gets plenty of one-on-one attention

A typical day
A typical day starts with a morning potty break and breakfast, followed by some playtime or a short walk. Throughout the day, I make sure each dog gets attention, check-ins, and time to relax. In the afternoon, we usually have another walk or play session, depending on their energy level. Evenings are more calm dinner, a final potty break, and wind-down time so they can settle in comfortably. I keep things consistent and adjust based on each dog’s routine and needs
