Fun & Loving Home for Small Dogs & Cats
Pet care experience
I live with my dog, my cat and my three parakeets. My building is surrounded by green fields and trees. There is also a large communal garden, and parks are nearby. I enjoy strolling around the city, discovering new trails, and playing with my pets just as much as I enjoy relaxing with them on the couch. I understand the responsibility and difficulty of finding someone reliable to care for Pumba and Nala while I travel, which is why I decided to assist others when I am available. My dog and cat's happiness and well-being are my top priority, as will be your pet's. Some background: I grew up on a farm, surrounded by all kinds of animals. I've raised and cared for many cats and dogs over the years, from puppies to seniors, through health and illness, fun, and discipline. It's an ongoing learning experience that I enjoy every day.
Reviews
I want to thank Maria-Teresa for such a wonderful care provided for Ivy! I enjoyed my worry-free vacation, while Maria provided regular updates with tons of photos and videos! Also Maria had always been available in case on any questions and let us meet first before confirming the booking to see if my little one will go along with her pets. I highly recommend Maria-Teresa, and very grateful I chose her ❤️
Super caring and very reactive.
María Teresa is amazing. She gives the attention my puppy needs. Bruno was even sad of leaving Maria Teresa’s house. He gets along really well with Pumba ❤️
María Teresa has been a great host for Bruno. So lovely with my puppy and patient. I totally recommend her.

As a dog and cat mom, I understand the need of finding a flexible and reliable sitter, and the importance of knowing what to expect from the service I'm paying for, so here's a bit more detail on what each service involves: BOARDING This is a great option if you're going on vacation and need overnight care for your pets. In my apartment, they'll be treated like family. It's a safe, warm space with plenty of comfy beds (including mine!) for them to snuggle up in. While they're with me, your pets will enjoy at least four walks a day, plenty of playtime, timely meals, any necessary medications and of course, tons of love. You can can expect daily updates and a lot of photos and videos from them, as well as my full-time availability for any additional questions you may have during the stay. To ensure your pets have a happy and healthy stay, I advise to bring along their own food and bowls. Feel free to pack also their favorite bed, toys, blankets, snacks, and anything else that will make their stay extra pleasant. This service covers 24 hours of care. Check-in and check-out times are flexible to suit your schedule. I offer a discounted rate for stays longer than 14 days. DOGGY DAY CARE This is ideal if you need a sitter to watch over your pets while you're at work. During their visit, your pets will enjoy two to three walks, plenty of playtime, timely meals, any necessary medications and lots of love. You can expect a brief report of their stay and a lot of photos and/or videos from them. Just like with the boarding service, bringing along their own food and bowls is advised to keep their stomachs happy. You're welcome to include their favorite bed, toys, blankets, and snacks too. This service covers about 9 hours of care. Drop-off for your pets before work, and pick them up on your way back home. Drop-off and pick-up times are flexible to suit your schedule. DOG WALKING It's ideal for busy people with active pets who need to unwind. You can expect me to pick-up your furry friend at your house on time, take them for a one-hour walk around your neighborhood, and then drop them back off.

Information Maria Teresa P. would like to know about your pet
Clear and honest communication is essential for building trust and providing a positive experience for your pet(s). The more information you offer about your furry friend, the better, so please share all of the details regarding your dog's or cat's routines, as well as any specific needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. All small breeds (and big personalities) will be welcomed and loved.
A typical day
A typical day with my pets (and yours) would begin with breakfast. My cat, Nala, is an early eater. Afterwards, we'd go for a long walk. Pumba and I enjoy wandering around the Johan Cruyff Arena and other surrounding fields. With a high-energy dog, I understand the importance of taking my time and offering both physical and mental stimulation. After that, we'd return home and have a lengthy siesta, because rest and sleep are equally necessary. While at home, we would spend some quiet time playing with their toys and lying on the couch. The rest of the day would be spent walking, eating, and napping some more, with occasional photoshoots.
