Hola! My name is Cynthia, and I look forward to taking care of your precious pup! I was born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela. I have lived in New York for several years and will begin graduate school in the fall. Right now I have the most flexible schedule and will dedicate all day to pamper, give personal attention, and lots of affection to your dog. We would take several walks a day and any activities you enjoy doing together. Your dog will be loved and taken care of the same way as you do. During my childhood in Venezuela our home was almost a zoo, from hamsters, pet parakeets and parrots, to rabbits, cats, fish, and of course: dogs! I was raised in an environment with plenty of love and respect for animals and nature, certainly, since a very young age I learned how to take care of them on my own. Most of my relatives were raised the same way. As we were very close, I spent my time in all my cousins homes, with their dogs! And rabbits, parakeets, parrots, and even a monkey! Szuky, my almost 14-year-old maltese, is in Venezuela at home with my parents. I am the one who took care of her since she was born. She slept in my room when she was a puppy. I watched her during the night for potty time for several weeks, and trained her to do potty at a specific place in our house's laundry room that was covered with newspaper. I miss Szuky very much, she is my little princess, and all that love for her I will give to your pup. I am a very sensitive, caring, and detail-oriented fine artist to soon begin a master's in social work. I want to make the world a better place and connect humans back to nature. I care for all animal's well-being, and I love our furry friends -and dogs love me too! I am their naturally patient, affectionate, and very playful best friend. Your dog will be in great hands with me and I will make sure to only give my best to meet their needs. I am also a photographer, and enjoy taking dog's portraits. I would keep you updated as much as you like and will send you great photographs of your beautiful one, so you'll be sharing with us too.
