About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience and dedication to understanding dogs of all behaviors. I volunteer at a local shelter, which has taught me how to manage and care for dogs with different personalities and needs. Plus, I currently work part-time at a doggy daycare, giving me even more experience in handling various breeds and temperaments. Your furry friends will be in great hands! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I prioritize their needs alongside my own. For example, I start my day by feeding the pets and taking them for a morning walk. Throughout the day, I incorporate playtime and training sessions, ensuring they get enough exercise and mental stimulation. I also make sure to schedule regular potty breaks and keep a close eye on their health and well-being. In the evenings, I provide another walk and some cuddle time before their final meal. This routine ensures that the pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for every day. I care for pets in my home by creating a safe and comfortable environment tailored to their needs. I make sure they have a cozy space to relax, plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and a consistent routine for feeding and walks. I also pay close attention to their behavior and mood, ensuring they get the love and attention they need. Plus, I keep them engaged with fun activities and socialization, so they feel right at home while you're away!

About: Hi there, I'm Marco Nunes, the founder of Polo's Paws—a local business dedicated to providing insured, affordable, and high-quality care for dogs. My journey with dogs began when my family rescued a pup facing significant behavioral challenges. She was aggressive towards people and other dogs, and destructive when left alone, making daily life challenging. Determined to help her and others like her, I immersed myself in the world of dog care. I started my career at a dog daycare that offered private lessons and boarding. Under the mentorship of experienced trainers, I quickly learned effective techniques. I led pack walks with groups of 10 dogs, of various breeds and temperaments. Through this experience, I not only transformed my family dog but also gained the skills to help other families achieve the same relief and joy of having a well-socialized, happy companion. Today, my goal with Polo's Paws is to ensure every dog I work with is fully fulfilled and transformed, allowing families to enjoy their wonderful company without the stress of managing a restless dog. With Polo's Paws, you can trust that your dog will receive comprehensive care and training, tailored to their needs. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I currently work part-time and it’s work from home, which means I spend all of my day with my dog—going on walks, playing, and ensuring they stay active and happy. Your pup will seamlessly join our routine, getting plenty of exercise, socialization, and enrichment throughout the day. Whether it’s a fun pack walk, playtime in my fenced yard, or relaxing downtime, I’ll make sure they have a fulfilling and enjoyable experience while in my care! I provide a secure and enriching space for your dog, whether in my home or yours. My home features a fenced yard and an in-building dog park, perfect for burning off energy. Your pup will also enjoy daily pack walks, just like the ones I led while managing groups of 10 dogs at a time in a doggy daycare. I have a friendly resident dog who loves company, creating a social and welcoming atmosphere. If needed, I can also crate dogs for rest and sleep, ensuring a structured and comfortable stay. Safety, trust, and a happy environment are my top priorities!
