Pet care experience

Home Away from Home for Your Pet 🧡

I’ve been surrounded by pets my whole life — dogs and cats have always been part of my family. Although I don’t have pets at the moment, I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just cuddling on the couch, I love making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved. I’m a very patient and punctual person, and I can easily adapt to your pet’s specific routine and needs. I’m also experienced with administering medication if needed. My schedule is flexible, and I’m available to care for your dog in my home. It would be a joy to take care of your furry friend as if they were my own! 🐶💛

Ana was amazing with our dog. He stayed with her for more than 15 days, and throughout that time she kept us updated almost every day with photos and messages. She was always communicating about his behavior, the activities they were doing together, and how he was doing overall. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him, and our dog became very attached to her. When we picked him up, he was in perfect condition, very clean, happy, and it was obvious that he had a lot of fun during his stay. We are extremely happy with Ana’s services and will definitely continue using her as our dog’s pet sitter in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and professional pet sitter.

It went great! Finn is very high needs but he got the appropriate care and instructions were followed 🥰. It looked like he had fun and he came back in a good mood.

Ana Paula was really friendly and easy to communicate with. Marley felt at home as soon as he arrived at her apartment and she took really good care of him, during my time in the city. I would highly recommend

I strongly advise against trusting this sitter with pets that require even a minimal level of special care or attention. She was supposed to take care of my elderly, blind dog for two days. However, on the evening of the first day, she messaged me saying she "couldn’t handle it" and asked if someone could pick the dog up the next day - just because the dog was peeing more than expected due to stress. That alone shows a lack of preparation and responsibility. But what shocked me the most was when I arrived to pick my dog up — she had a visible wound on her forehead, and the sitter never informed me when or how it happened. My dog is blind and can bump into things, but she has never injured herself like that before. The sitter said she applied healing cream, but the fact that she didn’t even tell me about the injury beforehand is completely unacceptable. This experience was incredibly upsetting. I had to cancel plans and return from 100 km away — I can't even imagine what would have happened if I had flown to another country. The sitter clearly overestimated her ability to handle an unpredictable situation and failed to act professionally when things didn’t go as expected. Unless your dog is perfectly easy and has no behavioural or health nuances whatsoever, I would not recommend relying on this sitter. She is unreliable and irresponsible — and not someone I would ever trust with my pet again.

Schedule

My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to fully adjust to each pet’s routine — whether that means early morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening cuddles. Since I truly enjoy spending time with animals, caring for them never feels like a task; it’s something that brings me joy and balance in my day. I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family while they’re with me

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in theirs, my priority is always their comfort and well-being. At my place, I create a calm, safe, and cozy environment where pets can feel relaxed and loved. I follow their usual routines closely — feeding times, walks, medication, play, and rest — to help them feel right at home. When I’m in their home, I make sure to respect their space while providing attentive, loving care. I keep things as familiar and stress-free as possible, sticking to their habits and favorite activities. In both cases, I keep communication open with pet parents and send regular updates so they feel reassured every step of the way.

A typical day

I love making sure pets not only feel safe, but also have fun while they’re with me! Depending on their energy level and preferences, we’ll go on relaxing or playful walks, enjoy interactive games like fetch or tug-of-war, and have cuddle sessions for those who love affection. I also like to engage their minds with basic training, puzzle toys, or simply spending calm time together. Each pet is unique, so I always pay attention to what they enjoy most — whether that’s chasing a ball, sunbathing, playing with toys, or just following me around the house. My goal is to keep them happy, active, and loved the entire time we’re together.

To ensure your pet gets the best possible care, I kindly ask that you let me know in advance if they take any medication or have specific behaviors I should be aware of. Whether it’s dietary restrictions, anxiety triggers, leash reactivity, or special routines, any detail helps me create a safe and comfortable experience tailored to your pet’s needs. Your transparency means I can care for them with the attention and love they deserve. 💛🐾
