Pet care is an essential part of my daily life. As a proud owner of three amazing dogs — a 6-year-old Golden Retriever, a 6-year-old Jack Russell Chihuahua, and a 5-year-old German Shepherd — I spend time every day feeding, walking, training, and playing with them. I’m also an early riser and maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to offer drop-in visits and dog walking services throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Whether you need a quick check-in for your pet or a longer walk to keep them happy and healthy, I’ve got you covered

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust are my top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where my dogs thrive. I always supervise playtime, ensure pets have access to fresh water, and keep toxic substances out of reach. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain the same high standards of safety — locking doors, keeping food and dangerous items out of reach, and following your specific instructions. I also understand how important it is to build trust with your pets, so I take a calm and gentle approach to make them feel comfortable and secure.

Information Yazmelin M. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know about any special needs your pet may have, such as dietary restrictions, allergies, or medical conditions. Please let me know if they have any behavioral quirks, like separation anxiety, fear of certain noises, or difficulty getting along with other pets. I also appreciate knowing about their favorite toys, treats, and any commands they are familiar with. The more I know, the better I can provide a safe, personalized, and stress-free experience for your furry baby.

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch is filled with fun, exercise, and plenty of love. I start with a refreshing morning walk, where your furry baby can explore, sniff, and get some energy out. For active dogs, I offer playtime with their favorite toys — whether it’s a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or some basic training exercises to keep their minds sharp. For more relaxed pets, I provide gentle belly rubs, cozy cuddle sessions, and peaceful strolls at their own pace. I also make sure to follow your pet’s feeding schedule, provide fresh water, and maintain their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy.

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience with a wide range of animals and my lifelong love for pets. I grew up in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, taking care of farm animals like chickens, ducks, and goats, which gave me a deep understanding of animal behavior and care. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of personalized care, patience, and attention. Whether it's caring for energetic puppies, calming anxious dogs, or providing gentle support for senior pets, I have the experience and skills to ensure your pet is happy and safe. I’m also highly reliable, maintain a clean and secure environment, and communicate promptly, giving you peace of mind every time I care for your furry family member.

"I am thoroughly impressed with the level of care and professionalism provided by Yazmelin. She demonstrated exceptional reliability, attention to detail, and genuine compassion for my German shepherd. Throughout the duration of their service, I received regular updates and felt confident that my pet was in capable hands. I highly recommend Yazmelin to anyone seeking a responsible and dedicated pet care professional!!!!
