Pet care experience

I’m an animal person 💛

I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, starting young by helping family, friends, and neighbors with their pets. I’m an Animal Science profissional with experience across different species and a true love for animals. I work from home, so I’m able to spend most of the day with your pets and give them the attention and care they need. My partner is also a veterinarian and helps me care for your beloved pets. I follow their routine, keep them safe and happy, and provide daily updates with photos and videos. Every pet is different, so I always adapt their care to what they enjoy most, from active walks to calm cuddles 🐾

We couldn’t recommend Ana João and Francisco enough! They treated Artie like their own dog, taking him everywhere and making him completely part of the family. We trusted them 100% and loved receiving regular updates with lots of photos and videos. Artie clearly had the BEST time and seemed sad when it was time to leave! 😂❤️ We’ll absolutely be booking with them again!

Ana was brilliant with our elderly dog Rico. She doesn't have a garden which I knew when booking. She took him out for regular breaks and sent me lots of updates and photos. Thank you Ana!

Ana João is an incredibly responsible and loving pet caregiver. She took care of my three cats over a weekend and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. She played with them, kept everything clean and organized, and truly understood what they needed. I especially appreciated the constant updates and photos she sent, which gave me total peace of mind. I would absolutely trust Ana João with my pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring.

I can’t say enough great things about Ana and the amazing care she provided while pet sitting for my dog. From the very beginning, she was attentive, responsible, and clearly passionate about animals. She treated my dog as if he were her own, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was how consistently she kept me updated. She sent me regular videos, photos, and messages, so I always knew how my dog was doing. Seeing him happy, relaxed, and well cared for made all the difference. It was clear he was in loving and capable hands. Ana truly cares about the pets she looks after. She’s trustworthy, dependable, and goes above and beyond to make sure both pets and owners feel comfortable. I couldn’t be happier with her service, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a green, pet-friendly area with parks and walking paths nearby, making it great for safe and enjoyable walks. I have a spacious one-bedroom flat with a safe, fenced balcony where pets can relax and enjoy some fresh air. I also have a friendly and well-trained Boston Terrier who can keep your pet company if they are comfortable with other dogs. I will follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I’ll also send you daily photos and videos so you can see how they are doing while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

I like to keep your pet mentally and physically stimulated while always adapting to their usual routine. Depending on their needs and energy level, I have plenty of nearby parks, open spaces, and woodland areas where we go for walks, play, or have a good run.
