Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs are my favorite people! 🐶🐾
With hands-on dog walking and pet sitting experience, plus years caring for my own dogs and volunteering with dog rescue organizations in both Brazil and NYC, I understand that this role goes far beyond simply taking dogs out for a walk or pet sitting. It’s about ensuring their safety, reading their behavior, managing their energy, building trust, and giving owners confidence that their pets are genuinely being cared for. I’m comfortable handling daily walks in all weather conditions, feeding routines, administering medication, and providing attention, structure, playtime, and companionship. I treat every pet with patience, care, and responsibility, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away.

Safety, trust & environment
Ensuring the safety, trust, and well-being of pets is my top priority, whether I'm caring for them in my home or in my clients' homes. In both settings, I take several measures to create a secure environment for the pets such as avoiding access to harmful substances, creating safe places to play with my dogs also selecting toys that can be used by them according to their sizes, following guidelines and instructions provided by the tutors, sending them pictures, videos and updates of their pets. My goal is to provide a safe and trustworthy space to dogs and tutors.
Ratings and reviews
Ricardo was great! Very attentive, responsive and accommodating. Highly recommend.
Ricardo is the absolute best! So attentive, kind and communicative. He went above and beyond looking after my two cats. I've used Rover for years and he is truly the best. I will be booking with Ricrdo again! He's amazing!!
Ricardo N. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.

Schedule
As a marketing manager, I recently made a significant life change to support my wife’s career ambitions after she received an amazing job promotion in a big company in the United States. This move allowed me to align my professional skills with my passion for pets, leading me to start working in pet care here. Combining my marketing background with my love for pets, I've created a structured yet flexible schedule that allows me to provide top-notch care for the pets while working from home managing my professional responsibilities in my area. This new chapter has been incredibly rewarding, and I’m excited to continue growing in this field.
