About Romy

 I have rescued dogs in Guatemala and Mexico and volunteered with dog
rescue organisations in both Guatemala and Mexico and have had 4 successful dog
adoptions from these countries, with all four now living in different locations
in the USA.
 

I have rescued, bathed, fed & fostered many dogs whilst I lived in
Guatemala in 2017-18 and volunteered in Mexico 2019 and 2022-2024. I am an
absolute animal lover, partial to dogs and will treat your dog as my own, with
love, attention, and affection.
 

I would like to be able to look after a home and hopefully a pet for
someone who requires a trusted and honest person to take care of their life
while they are away.
 

I have grown up with animals, we always had dogs & cats &
rabbits and birds & could not imagine a life without giving love to a loyal
and loving friend that pets always are. Your family member would be in great
hands with me as a carer/sitter and would be treated as if he/she was my own.
They will be loved, cuddled, and walked and talked too and made to feel
comfortable and secure, as much as they are when they are with you.
 

I have had multiple jobs in both Sydney and Puerto Vallarta Mexico
looking after homes and people's pets and so have a lot of experience with
rescue animals as well and animals under stress. I am looking to pet sit in
your home to make your pet as comfortable as possible whilst you are vacation
and to enable, he/she to remain in the environment they are accustomed to.
 

I am available to walk your dog in the mornings and evenings as I work
full time. I will always keep your dog on leash while walking, unless you give
me permission to have the dog of leash in an area such as a park, where your
dog is comfortable and familiar. I am comfortable giving medication, and very
comfortable bathing your dog as I have worked with a grooming salon for the
last 3 years on a casual basis. I am also happy to clip your dog's nails.
 

I will respect your home as if it was my own, I will keep it clean and
tidy, water plants, maintain a pool and bring in the mail while I am looking
after your pets in your home. I will keep your home secure and follow any
instructions given to me to maintain the security of your home and of course
your animals. Your pets, your family, will be my family.

Romy is an excellent companion for our puppy Archie. We have engaged Romy previously as she did a great job last time, and is a fabulous house sitter - everything kept clean and tidy. Romy also takes great pet photos and keeps us up-to-date frequently, which we appreciate so much. Thanks Romy! Archie can't wait for his next holiday!

Absolutely delighted with Romy and her care for our puppy Archie - we have no hesitation in recommending her services. Romy was easy to communicate with, and she kept us updated regularly while we were away. The apartment was also well cared for.
