Pet Paraiso Inn

Pet care experience

I am a online/stay at home student and business owner with a great love for animals. In fact, I have a number of pets! Including 5 small doggies, a hamster named Tequila, lots of goldfish and some outdoor street cats, whom have come to call my house home. I have always had pets throughout my life and honestly could not imagine my life without them. I believe pets bring happiness and love into our lives. You can rest assured that your dogs will be taken care of and loved for as if they are my own. Why I love dog sitting To say that I have loved dogs all my life is cliche, but it's the truth. Ever since I was little I have cared for animals. From fish, to small animals, to cats and dogs, I have always had some kind of pet throughout my life. Currently, I have 5 dogs, whom I consider my little babies :). They are small dogs with big personalities whom would love to make friends with your doggies! Here is what you can expect at Pet Paraiso Inn! -Playing, running and bathrooms breaks in our huge yard; depending on weather, we go outside every hour and more if needed. -Also, long walks to Langdon park and the National Arboretum, which is right around the corner from us! -Homemade natural goodies/treats! Just let me know if your doggie has any allergies beforehand. -24/7 hour supervision. Between me, my dad, uncle, cousin and boyfriend, there is always someone in the house. Your doggie will never be left alone! -Tons of toys and activities to pass the time. My dogs have tons of energy and always love playing with new friends. I am always finding new ways to keep them entertained! If your doggie is older or is not the playful pup, no problem. My doggies know when to back off and our house is pretty big, they are sure to have their space. My doggies also have their very own room that is built onto the side of our garage. Your doggie is welcome to hang and play there with my doggies in a fenced in yard, or they can stay in the house with me when they don't want to be bothered. ? -Pet taxi. If you are unable to drop off or pick up, no problem. I can pick them up/drop them off for a small fee depending on how near or far you live. Just be sure to let me know so I can work out the distance. -And much more! So what are you waiting for?! Go ahead and book a stay with us! Your dog/pet will love it here! ***Pick up info*** ***If pick up time is after 8pm a small fee of $10 Per dog will be charged.

Awesome! She took great care of my fur babies and sent me daily updates and pictures while I was gone.

Always great. Flexible and welcoming. I have a 6 month pup and she always comes back tuckered out from playing with the other doggos.

Esmeralda took really good care of my 150+ lb dog Fluffy! Always kept me updated. She’s very responsible. I will definitely let her sit my dog again! Very much recommended!

Esmeralda was amazing! She took both of my big stubborn pit bulls for daily walks (at the same time!) and sent me lost of pictures. She was super communicative and always texted right back. Will definitely book again!

Information Esmeralda G. would like to know about your pet

I am open to all dog breeds and do not have any preferences. But for the time being I am only able to accept small and medium size doggies. This is for safety for my own dogs, as well as others that I take care of. I also want to know: 1. That they are up to date with their vaccines 2. If they are potty trained 3. If they are aggressive towards other dogs

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I plan to take your dog on walks around my area. Right across the street from my house is a public park where many people in my neighborhood frequently take their dogs. I also like taking my dogs to the National Arboretum, which is right around the corner from my house. My dogs love going there for long walks and great sites to stiff out; I would love to take yours there as well. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog is welcome to sleep pretty much anywhere he/she wants. My bed included. Time I'll spend with your dog Since I work from home and am currently taking online classes, I am able to spend more than enough time caring for your dog :). When I do go out, it is only for a couple of hours to run some errands. Other than that, I will be spending the rest of my time with your dog.
