About: I have helped raise three kitties! I have additionally helped to raise a puppy who was a bit reactive and required additional training. While it was tough, it was very rewarding and I appreciate the way it helped me better communicate with my dog. I am currently taking a very long break from corporate work, and would love to spend this year regrouping but doing one of my favorite things: Hanging out with and helping adorable animals! I am extremely flexible with my schedule, and willing to travel. Currently, I care for my pets by providing weekly brushing, daily feeding, daily litter box cleaning/rotation, weekly litter deep cleans, and play time. For dogs, I am comfortable, feeding, walking with a harness, collar, as well as a gentle-leader for our more reactive friends. While doing home visits, I am comfortable and happy to supervise outdoor/backyard time. I love long walks and am comfortable with dogs up to 100 lbs.

“Debora was the best dog sitter for my dog Stark. We went on 5 day vacation to Cancun and she did an amazing job coming to the house and caring for Stark. I could tell from the start that Debora was responsible, caring and would be the perfect fit to watch Stark in our home while we were away. She even sent me clear updates along with photos and videos which were very comforting to me and my family seeing that Stark was doing really well and was happy. She did everything in her power to make sure Stark was safe, comfortable, and well cared for all around. I would recommend Debora to anyone looking for someone to care for their Dog or other pet.”

About: My first pet was 16 years old, she was a Boxer and this was my greatest experience!. Then I had 2 cats with their mother and 6 other puppies(Her puppies), I had a lot of love, patience and fun, the best thing I can have in life is this type of sharing My afternoons are dedicated to them, going for a walk, getting to know them, taking care of them and understanding that everyone needs to have a different time each day... something different from their environment and with someone different from their normality. Spanish/english As a first step. Get to know the owner, their pets and their environment, for to be able and to see their personality. I like to share with them, play, and follow all the instructions for caring for the pet. but most important objective is that they don't feel never alone.
