About: I have two dogs of my own and am very experienced in taking care of them! I’m able to work around your specific dog’s needs, as I know leaving them with a sitter can be stressful! I’m currently a full time student and coaching part time! However, I will have plenty of time to check on your pets throughout the day. I am more than happy to follow the specific rules you have for your pet when I watch them in your home! I want everything to run smoothly for me, the pet, and you!
8. Antonio C.
“Antonio is a very caring and responsible young man. He has a love and passion for animals, which I have seen him interact with my own 2 dogs when babysitting and over night sitting, my dogs just love him. His future hopes and dream is to open up his own doggie daycare and training camping which in detail would be lodging your pet and any behavior training of your pet needed. I would say he would diffently do a good job at it. Any questions please let me know. Sincerely, Teresa Reyes”
