Treating Every Pet Like Family ♥️

Hi! My name is Manuela, and caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. Back home in Colombia, I took care of my own two dogs as well as my relatives’ dogs, so I’ve been around dogs with different personalities and needs for years. I also worked as an Au Pair, where one of my daily responsibilities included caring for two family dogs. This gave me experience balancing pet care with a busy routine while making sure they received plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Most of the dogs I’ve cared for have been large breeds, including Pit Bulls, Labrador Retrievers, and Rhodesian Ridgebacks, so I’m comfortable handling bigger, energetic dogs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family. I will always care for your pet with patience, kindness, and the same love I would give my own. Every dog has their own personality. I take the time to learn their routine, energy level, and what makes them feel comfortable, so they can feel at ease while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and happiness will always be my top priority. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I respect every client’s home as if it were my own, and I make sure pets have fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection. I have experience caring for large breeds and understand that every dog has different needs and energy levels. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease. I’ll also send regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

You will NEVER find another person who will care more for your animal than Manuela! She took care of my two Rhodesian Ridgebacks for a year, until we moved. She not only provided them with the basic care (food, walks, play, administer medicine), but loved them as if they were her own. When my boy was sick, Manuela was his nurse while I was at work. She provided him, and me, with such tender comfort. Manuela is a beautiful soul, very respectful, dependable, and genuinely kind. Search no further - Manuela is the BEST there is!

Schedule

I’m currently available seven days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your pet whenever you need. Whether it’s a morning walk, an afternoon visit, or overnight care, I’ll do my best to work around your schedule. I’m committed to providing dependable and consistent care, and I always make sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I also speak both English and Spanish, so I’m happy to communicate in whichever language you’re most comfortable with.
