“Lisbeth is an amazing dog walker and I am very thankful I came across her. I have been very pleased with the care and attention she has provided for my dog (Mango). Due to my hectic schedule, I needed someone to help me walk Mango twice a week. Fortunately, I came across Lisbeth who made me feel very comfortable since the beginning. Lisbeth is always very caring towards Mango and maintains great communication with me regarding any updates. I know Mango is in good hands whenever Lisbeth takes him for a walk. I highly recommend her services!”

About: I worked 1 year in pet boarding. And bath groomer. I cared every single breed and also cared a lot cats. It’s amazing !!!I loved it I’m available to play all afternoon. I really love spent my time with them. In the morning I have a job but I’ve arrived always early to my home. I always take care to them. Hours to eat, hours to play, to go to walk, most importantly make feel the dog comfortable and also the costumer. I am currently not working but have a few errand along the day. In the morning as soon as I wake up I would take care of the cleaning pet area, feeding and walking if needed. I would repeat the process in the afternoon. I make sure to keep everything as clean as possible, separate the pets as directed by the owners, also feed and walk (of dog) twice a day or as directed for the owner
19. Roberto M.
“My boyfriend, Roberto, has always been extremely caring, loving, and playful with my dog, Simba. Every time he comes over, they play tug-of-war, he shows Simba love through petting him or bringing him new toys, or they go on walks at the nearby park. Simba truly gets so happy when he says Roberto because he knows it’s going to be a good day!”
