Loving Care While You’re Away 🐾
Hello! We are Paulo and Francisco, a couple offering home boarding and pet care from our spacious home with a large, fully fenced and secure garden. We have shared our lives with pets for many years and currently care for Juno, our friendly 5-year-old Chow Chow, and Misha, our beloved 17-year-old cat. We have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, including senior pets and those requiring daily medication. Because we both work from home, visiting pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Misha is very accustomed to dogs and gets along well with them. However, if your dog is not comfortable around cats, our house is large enough for Misha to have her own separate spaces away from visiting pets, ensuring everyone feels safe, relaxed, and comfortable. We understand that every pet is unique and will do our best to follow their usual routine, making sure they feel happy, secure, and loved while you’re away.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Paulo and Francisco were amazing with my dog Purdey- she’s scared of everything and can be grumpy with other dogs but they put me at ease on the meet and greet and then when I dropped Purdey off for her stay. They kept me updated throughout the sit with photos and information about how she was getting on, eating, sleeping and I enjoyed receiving pictures of her. Purdey seems to have enjoyed her stay and I will certainly be going back to Paulo and Francisco in the future- thank you so much to you both!
Our high spirited lab puppy Rocky was very well looked after and had a great time with Juno. Paulo and Francisco were excellent- great communication and kindly sent us photos too which were very much appreciated. Rocky is really looking forward to his next stay.
Paulo and Francisco were amazing with Bella, making her feel so comfortable and welcome. Sometimes she won't eat when staying away from home but the fact she ate and ate well, even having her treats was a sign of how relaxed and safe she felt. Cant thank them enough. Best wishes, Stephan
Paulo and Francisco took care of my Great Dane, King, for 5 days while I was away. They were brilliant with him and it was obvious he was having a great time. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, and it was a huge comfort knowing he was being so well looked after. King came home happy and relaxed, and I wouldn't think twice about leaving him with them again. Highly recommended!
Paulo and Francisco looked after my Labrador and Poodle for 10 days, and I felt completely reassured knowing they were in such caring hands. They treated my dogs as if they were their own, providing plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship throughout their stay. They also kept me regularly updated with messages and photos, which was greatly appreciated and gave me real peace of mind. My dogs returned home happy, relaxed, and clearly very comfortable with them. It is obvious that Paulo and Francisco genuinely care about animals and go above and beyond to ensure they feel safe and loved. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy, and compassionate pet carers.

Schedule
We both work from home and are lifelong animal lovers, so your pet will enjoy plenty of company, attention, and care throughout the day. Our home is already shared with Juno, our friendly Chow Chow, and Misha, our 17-year-old cat, and we understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether they love long walks, garden playtime, cuddles on the sofa, or a quiet place to relax, we’ll do our best to make them feel completely at home.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet will stay in our spacious, pet-friendly home with access to a large, fully fenced and secure garden. We have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including senior pets and those requiring medication. We always take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. We share our home with Juno, our friendly 5-year-old Chow Chow, who enjoys the company of other dogs, and Misha, our much-loved 17-year-old cat. Misha is accustomed to dogs and generally gets along well with them. However, if your dog is not comfortable around cats, Misha has plenty of separate areas within the house where she can relax undisturbed, ensuring everyone feels safe and comfortable. Our home is a calm adult-only environment with no children, making it particularly suitable for pets who prefer a quieter setting. We carefully supervise introductions and make every effort to create a safe, happy, and stress-free experience for all pets in our care.
Pets
A typical day
Because we both work from home, pets are rarely left alone and become part of our daily routine. A typical day includes garden time, play sessions, plenty of attention and cuddles, regular toilet breaks, and walks tailored to your dog’s age and energy levels. Juno loves having canine visitors to play with, while more relaxed or senior pets are equally welcome to enjoy a quieter pace. Throughout the day, we make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and part of the family.
