Pet care experience
Welcome to Paws & Play Retreat, where your furry friends are treated like family! I am a nurse with more than 16 years of experience. I grew up on a farm surrounded by lots of animals. At present i own a golden retriever called Miles. He is 2 and he is the heart of our household. Our cozy home offers a home away from home for dogs of all sizes and breeds. We have a spacious play garden and comfy sleeping quarters. I am dedicated to provide personalised care to ensure your furry friend will feel right at home. From interactive games and stimulating activities to relaxing grooming sessions, I ensure that every tail wags with joy during their stay. Trust me to provide a safe, fun, and loving environment for your beloved canine companion while you're away. Let the tail-wagging adventures begin! 🐾 #HomeAwayFromHome
Reviews
I have known Catalina for many years. She is one of the most kind, compassionate and dedicated people I've ever met! Her love for dogs and animals in general is second to none. Her long career and expertise in nursing is an added bonus as she can competently recognise and deal with a number of medical problems. I can't recommend Catalina enough!

Information Catalina P. would like to know about your pet
Understanding each pet's personality, preferences, health considerations, and any special needs is crucial for providing appropriate care and planning enjoyable activities. Prior knowledge of their temperament, energy levels, favorite toys, dietary requirements, any medical conditions, and behavioral quirks can help tailor activities and interactions to suit them best. This ensures a safe, fulfilling, and enriching experience for both the pets and the caretaker.
A typical day
As a pet caretaker, I'd engage in various activities to ensure the pets' well-being and happiness. These could include interactive play sessions with toys, stimulating exercises like agility training or obstacle courses, leisurely walks or hikes, teaching new tricks through positive reinforcement, and providing plenty of cuddle and bonding time. Additionally, I'd tailor activities based on each pet's preferences and needs to ensure they enjoy their time to the fullest.
