Highlights
Pet care experience
We are pro pet sitters and cuddlers
Hello, my name is Fernando, and I take pride in providing top-notch pet-sitting services! With a long experience and a passion for animals, my wife Milena and I have the pleasure of caring for furry friends in Jersey City. As a pet owner, I understand the importance of ensuring our animals are happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I lived in Sao Paulo, Brazil (my hometown) and had a dog named Minnie for 16 years and a cat named Miety for 15 years. Now we have Serena, a cute Golden Retriever puppy! Milena also has been working as a cat and dog sitter for more than ten years in São Paulo, Brazil; Brisbane, Australia; and Boston and Jersey City, U.S. She was born around dogs and also developed a passion for cats as she started taking care of the felines of her relatives and friends. Whether taking your furry friend for a walk, providing overnight care, or dropping-in visits, you can trust that we are committed to ensuring their comfort, happiness, and safety. We are reliable and responsible; you can rest assured that your pet is in good hands. So if you're looking for a pet sitter who values the well-being of your animal just as much as we do, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. You will have two people giving so much attention to your little friend. We look forward to meeting you and your buddy!

Ratings and reviews
Fernando and Milena were both amazing at giving Sora the utmost time and care when it came to their drop-ins. We received so many photos of her at home and on walks, and she looked very happy! I told them they didn’t have to walk her at night and could use the dog run, but they did anyways which I thought was super sweet. We really appreciated their clear communication and getting to schedule a meeting beforehand so they could meet Sora and for me to show them around the building/where all of her things were. Will definitely book again the next time we are out of town!

Fernando and Milena are always so caring to Pantufa! ❤️

The best pet sitters, hands down! My dogs love them and I trust them fully because I know they really care about the dogs they are looking after, and do everything they can to make them comfortable, healthy and happy while humans are away 💛


Always a perfect sitting experience. I feel safe and know that Pantufa is being taken care of and also having a great time with Milena and Fernando!

There’s no one better!


Fernando takes excellent care of our foster dog, Ernesto and this stay was no exception. Even though he's watched him a few times before, each stay is different as Ernesto learns and grows and Fernando handles each update and change beautifully. He's a wonderful communicator and we never even have to wonder how Ernesto is doing when we are away because Fernando keeps us posted at every step. Thank you so much, Fernando!

Schedule
My wife and I work from home, and our schedules are flexible, so we have plenty of time to feed, walk and play with your pup. :) Or to come to your house, if you prefer! We are also available on weekends!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In our home, the pets are always welcome and can enjoy it as if it were their home! They can feel comfortable staying in bed or on the sofa - it's not a problem for me or my wife, and we love it! Our puppy gets along with other dogs as well! If either of us goes to a client's home, we always intend to stay more than we can because we love pets - so every opportunity that we can play and cuddle with them, we will!
Pets
A typical day
We like to play with the dogs with different toys and make them have fun with other kinds of games! There is an area on the side of our building with grass that we can take for a walk, as well as a large park 10 minutes from our house, where they can explore a lot.

- It's essential to know how old your pet is, in addition to some of their behaviors. We also need to see if it will be necessary to administer any oral medication or something like that (like dripping eye drops), do specific cleaning in any region of your pet's body, etc.
