Purr & Paws Pet Care Service

Pet care experience

I've cherished a lifelong bond with dogs, cats, and birds, finding joy in their companionship. With a rich background in nurturing a variety of pets, I bring a wealth of experience in catering to their every need. My approach is rooted in patience, attentiveness, and a keen ability to interpret their body language, allowing me to multitask effectively. Whether it's recognizing hunger, sensing the need for a walk, or understanding when they require bathroom breaks, my intuitive care ensures their well-being. Following your instructions diligently is a commitment I take seriously, emphasizing the establishment of trust as a cornerstone of my service. My goal is to create an environment where both you and your pet feel secure, calm, and content.

Anel was a fabulous sitter and took such good care of my dog and cat. She followed all the instructions and gave regular updates with lots of pictures. She communicated clearly and often. I have no complaints!

Anel was great with our cat and senior dog. She was very respectful of our house and very mindful of health and safety. We so appreciated her watching over our little ones!

Anel was amazing with our dog and we felt comfortable with her in our home. She accommodated all of our needs and gave us updates throughout the duration of her visit. Highly recommended!

Anel really helped me out when I was in a pinch - and I can tell that Brownie felt safe and sound with her. They went for walks, to the park, and even to brunch together! Thank you Anel for giving Brownie a fabulous "staycation" while I was away.

Safety, trust & environment

At my home or yours, the well-being of your furry family member is my top priority. In my home, I've taken measures to create a safe and secure environment, free from potential hazards. I've designated a cozy space for pets to relax and feel at home. For cat owners, I understand the importance of catering to their unique needs. In addition to the basics, like providing fresh water and quality food, I'm meticulous about daily grooming, especially during the summer shedding season. Your cat will wake up to a set of engaging toys, ensuring entertainment and mental stimulation. When I'm pet sitting at your home, I bring the same level of dedication. Your furry friend will receive my undivided attention. I'll follow any specific instructions you provide regarding their routine, diet, and special requirements. Rest assured, safety and trust are non-negotiable aspects of my service. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable and secure, knowing they're in caring hands. Let's create a positive and memorable experience for your furry friend!

Information Anel L. would like to know about your pet

Absolutely, understanding your pet's routine and preferences is crucial for providing the best care possible. Here's what I'd like to know ahead of time: Daily Schedule: Feeding Times: Specify the usual times for meals, any special dietary requirements, and preferred types of food. Walks/Exercise: Inform me about their regular exercise routine, including preferred walk times, duration, and any specific routes they enjoy. Rest and Sleep: Share details about where they prefer to rest or sleep, and if they have a favorite bed or blanket. Likes and Dislikes: Toys: Identify their favorite toys or games that bring them joy and keep them engaged. Activities: Let me know if there are specific activities they particularly enjoy or if there are any they don't like. Interaction: Are they more social or independent? Do they enjoy being petted, brushed, or prefer some alone time? Favorite Treats: Special Treats: Provide information on their favorite treats or snacks. This helps in maintaining a positive and rewarding environment. By having this information in advance, I can tailor their experience to match their routine and preferences, minimizing any disruptions and ensuring a smooth transition into a comfortable and enjoyable environment. Your pet's well-being and happiness are my top priorities!
