Pet care experience

Shall we be friends? 🐶🐱🧡🩷

I grew up in a rural family surrounded by animals, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. Over the years, my family has had several dogs of different sizes and personalities, as well as cats. I have a particularly strong connection with dogs, and people tend to trust me with their pets because I am very gentle, patient, and attentive. I have a naturally nurturing personality and I genuinely enjoy making animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, bathing, basic care, and following each pet’s usual routine. I understand that every dog has a different personality and pace, so I always adapt my care to what makes them feel most at ease.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I’m happy to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar environment and feel more comfortable and relaxed. I can follow their usual routine closely, including walks, feeding, playtime, medication if needed, and plenty of companionship. I’m very patient and attentive, and I always try to make pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away.

Piera has been wonderful with our dog. She is reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. Our dog is always happy to see her, and we feel completely comfortable knowing he is in good hands. Piera is also great with communication and always keeps us updated. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!

Schedule

I’m currently a PhD student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to adapt easily to different pet care needs. I can often accommodate walks, drop-in visits, daytime care, and overnight stays throughout the week. My academic work also means I spend a lot of time working independently, so I can organize my routine around your pet’s usual schedule and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship.

I’d love to know about your pet’s usual routine, personality, energy level, favorite activities, and any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. Please also let me know about feeding schedules, medications, walking habits, or anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I’m happy to adapt to each pet’s individual needs.
