Pet care experience

It will be fun for the both of us

I love dogs (and animals in general) since I remember existing. And they seem to love me back. :) We adopted a 2-months old puppy, a Jack Russell Terrier, in July 2021. I used to feed, pet, and play with the stray dogs in my hometown, in Portugal, every day. I lived in Spain for more than 2 years (while working in Gibraltar) and used to play an hour a day with my neighbours' tiny dog, Dora, who didn't seem to like anyone else and was extremely active, but I've always managed to create some game. Haven't seen her for almost 5 years, but on my last visit she recognised me and licked my face for half an hour. :D I'm an IT engineer, so I'm doing this just to have a chance to be closer to our lovely friends, as there are no stray dogs on the streets. If this is your first booking you can use this code to have £15 OFF: PAULOB35674 -- Important notice: ------------------------------------------------------ For safety reasons (as I have a child and a puppy), I'll not accept requests from users if their profiles (or their dogs') are incomplete or without pictures. I'm afraid, for the same reason, I'm not accepting dogs from breeds considered "dangerous" (I don't have any problems with these dogs myself - I actually like them a lot, as they're very athletic - but I prefer not to take a chance with a child at home).

Paulo was great with Lilo and very understanding of her. He sent regular updates throughout the day and gave a thorough handover when I picked her up. Thanks again!

It was Maisie’s first day care ever. She was very well looked after by Paulo and Maria. Both Teddy and Maisie are exhausted after a great day at theirs. Thank you.

Paulo and Maria were FANTASTIC! I cannot thank them enough for taking care of our 7month olds pup Kuma. It was my 1st time using Rover and Paulo and Maria were very kind and extremely thorough with their communication. We received many updates through the day of photos & videos of Kuma and could not have asked for a better dog sitter! Kuma had a blast with their pup Hebbe, they played so well and Kuma came home very happy and content :-) Many thanks again Paulo, Maria, & Hebbe!

A typical day

I would like to go to a park with a dog with his/her favourite toy and play with it (by hiding or throwing it). Some running would be good for both of us as well, as I'm a very active person.
