Your Pup’s Home Away from Home!

Hi, I'm Manuela I've had dogs my entire life, and caring for them is truly my passion. I've also volunteered as a foster home for dogs rescued from high-risk shelters, so I have experience with pups from all kinds of backgrounds — especially those needing a little extra love and patience. At home, I live with my sweet, spayed female dog named Mocca. She's very friendly and gets along well with others, so your pup will have a built-in buddy to play with and feel at ease around! Whether you're looking for a day sitter or need someone you can trust while you're away, I provide a safe, loving environment where your dog will be treated like family. I also speak Spanish, so feel free to reach out in either language! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Manuela is wonderful with pets. She cares deeply about their health, wellbeing, and comfort. She has worked with rescues many times caring for them for a few days before they transitioned into new homes. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals makes her a perfect fit to be a caregiver for pets.

She loves dogs and animals in general. She has fostered several dogs up for adoption. She's had a dog all her life, and now she has a beautiful little dog named Mocca. She's very sweet, playful, and friendly with other dogs.

Schedule

I work from home full-time, so I’m always available to give your dog the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. I’m also available to go for a walk or take a trip to the dog park since it’s only 5 min away from home.
