Loving Pet Care for Dogs & Cats
Hi! We're João and Lara, a couple based in North London who love providing care for your pets. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, reactive, elderly or simply loves lots of cuddles, we'll make sure they receive the same care, patience and routine they're used to at home. We know every animal has their own personality, and we take the time to build trust at their pace. João grew up in the Santarém mountains of Portugal surrounded by large working dog breeds, while Lara grew up in a cat-loving family and has spent her life caring for rescue and stray cats. Together we've cared for everything from tiny lap dogs to energetic young dogs, as well as confident, shy and rescue cats. We'll keep you updated throughout every booking with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe and well looked after. Just take a look at our reviews they speak for themselves. We can't wait to meet your furry family

Thank you Joao and Lara ❤️❤️
Our dog really loves when Joao and Lara looks after him. They send regular updates and take such good care of our home.

Joao and Lara looked after my dog for a week! He is quite nervous and takes a while to warm up to strangers, but he was clearly so well taken care of as he was very relaxed when we returned home. The house was also very taken care of as was spotless when we returned. Thank you very much

Really good work, Left my cats with both Lara and Joao and they were so happy, everything was left in great condition and both boys were really taken care off.
Great pet care, Ari seemed so well taken care off, everything was cleaned when I came home and as I left it 5/5 nicest person
