“A Home With A 🐶 Is A Heaven”

Pet care experience

I have had pets in my home ever since I was a child and I have a very deep bond and connection with all of them … I get friendly and playful according to their age and I have a skill to understand their requirements and entertain them by talking , and telling stories on walks …. I can basic train them like sit , down, shake hand , stay , rollover etc… ,

Our Labradoodle ( Chiki ) stayed with Poornima for over 2 weeks. She took care of Chiki really well. Our dog was really happy staying at her place. She took care of the Chiki like her own pet. She gave us timely updates everyday with videos and pictures. She fed our dog exactly like the way we do at our home. Chiki got her walks and playtime exactly like we did at our home. Our dog felt very homely at her place. The level of care was excellent. We will definitely use her services again.

This is our second time leaving our furbaby, Peach, with Poornima and she did a wonderful job looking after her! Poornima sent pictures, videos, and updates throughout the day which we really appreciated. Her dog, Arjun (also lovingly known as Joe!!), is very sweet and the best pup friend Peach could ask for. We highly recommend Poornima as she is an amazing and attentive sitter!!!

Poornima was amazing! She helped us out last minute over the weekend and took such good care of our dog. She kept us updated with texts and videos, which made us feel so much better while we had to be away unexpectedly. Our dog looked happy, relaxed, and totally comfortable with her. We’re really grateful for how kind, thoughtful, and reliable she was. We’d happily book with Poornima again and definitely recommend her!
