Information Fernanda D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, allergies, medications, or behaviors that I should be aware of. I welcome pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, but having this information ahead of time helps me give them the best and safest care possible.

A typical day

Your dog’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, so I’d love to know everything that helps them feel at home—favorite toys, routines, any medical needs, quirks, or triggers. Every dog is unique, and I’m here to provide care that’s as special as they are. The more I know, the better I can love and care for them like family.

Assembly Row Cat & Dog Sitter 🐾

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m FERNANDA! I’m part of the Assembly Row community and love supporting my neighbors with trusted, caring, and reliable love for both dogs and cats. At the same time, all pet parents across Boston are welcome—I’m happy to help wherever you are! I’ve been caring for pets since I was 16, starting with my own sweet dog Mila, who was with me for 14 wonderful years. Since then, I’ve gained experience with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from energetic puppies and curious kittens to calm seniors. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight boarding, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐶🐱

Great experience boarding my dog Winnie with Fernanda! My dog can be very shy and reserved at first and Fernanda took the time to get to know her and let her warm up. Winnie came back home happy and healthy
