Reliable, Loving, and Trustworthy

Hello🤗 My name is Manuela and welcome to my profile! I am a professional with a Level 3 Award in Canine Care, Behavior, and Welfare. My love and knowledge makes possible for me to understand your dogs behavior and also his needs. With over a decade of experience working closely with dogs, and also caring for them since I was young girl, I am thrilled to offer my expertise and passion for dog care to you and your furry companions. Throughout my extensive career, I have had the pleasure of training numerous puppies, guiding them through their formative stages with patience and skill. I have a vast experience in training both adult dogs and puppies. I had the great opportunity to learn so much with Sandra Strong co founder of Dogs on camera while living in London. I can help your puppy with crate training, potty training, redirecting chewing, basic obedience, sit, wait, come and socialisation while under my care. I offer a family home where your dog will have play time and exercise realising the excess of energy , enrichment activities exercises can keep dogs mentally sharp and prevent boredom. 🐾In a a typical day, we start the morning with a walk in the park and also playtime to provide exercise and mental stimulation for the dogs. Throughout the day, fun activities may include interactive games such as fetch or tug-of-war, training sessions to work on obedience or tricks, puzzle toys to engage their minds, and socialization with other dogs or people. Additionally, activities like paddling pool in the summer ⛱️ I can provide new and exciting experiences for the dogs and most of them loves it. I always tailor activities to the individual needs and preferences of each dog to ensure they have a fulfilling and enjoyable day. On week days drop off from 7:45 am to 10 am. Weekends drop offs from 8:30 am to 10 am. I have Level 3 Award in Canine Care, Behavior, and Welfare ,First Aid ,Common Dog behaviour and training problems certified. I speak English and Portuguese and a bit of Spanish. Constant supervision is my mantra, ensuring your dog receives attention and care at all times. Safety is paramount during our walks, as I prioritize secure routes/parks and vigilant oversight to guarantee a positive and enriching experience for your beloved pet. All dogs are matched for sociability and temperament. Also, it's important to update your dogs profile with weight please. I don't take dogs over 18 kilos. I look after small and medium dogs up to 18 kilos only. Dogs have access to the grass garden that is safe, fenced and enclosed. if you need someone reliable and also qualified to look after your dog and provide love but the most important safety, please get in touch.

Our dog Tula stayed with Manu whilst we had a few days away . Manu was quick to respond to our initial request and from then on we had really good communication. Good to meet Manu and the first signs from Tula was they were going to get on great ! Whilst we were away Manu sent good photos of Tula and she looked so settled . Manu and Tula , who is a slightly nervous dog had plenty of walks and she looked like she was loving her time with Manu. Overall would definitely recommend Manu to any dog owner looking for boarding , and Tula will definitely be staying with her again … 10/10

It's important to know if your dog has any behaviour issues. Does your dog suffer from separation anxiety?Whats your dog likes, dislikes,walking schedule and behaviour during walks, any past injuries?medical issues? Lack of sociability? I don't have dogs with separation anxiety just dogs that are used to be boarded or dogs that are happy to sleep in the lounge and it won't be upset if there isn't anyone in the room with him.
