Ready to help your Pet.

Pet care experience

I like meeting and trying to communicate with the Animal world. If your pet meets me and decides I’m a good fit, all the better!

Rui is the best dog sitter ever! We highly recommend him. He takes great care of our 2 year old mini schnauzer. He makes Oscar feel right at home and gives his lots of love and attention. Rui has a wonderful way with dogs (and people). His calm, gentle demeanor puts even the most sensitive pets at ease. His home provides the perfect environment for pets, especially if they like to be outside. You couldn’t ask for more!

Rui is so sweet to our pup on every stay. We’ve worked with him several times - sometimes short term and long stays. Always a pleasure.

Rui was and is the BEST! He took excellent care of my puppy. She loved him and was well taken care of by Rui with care and lots of love. I will have Rui as my puppy sitter in the future! I highly recommend Rui!

Rui is a delightful host. He was so kind in caring for our dog. They went on many walks and dog park adventures. Rui was very responsive to our messages, he sent lots of pictures and updates. We whole heartedly recommend Rui and hope to book him again on our next visit

I have a fenced yard and room inside for Pets. I find client homes to be preferable than boarding at my place because your house is your pet’s natural habitat. Let’s meet and see if I pass your pet’s interview process.

Information Rui C. would like to know about your pet

Please ask me about it and I will clarify any concerns you might have. At this job my priority is to ensure that the rights of your pet are protected.

A typical day

Play in the yard. Go for walk around the block. Cuddle. Nap. Play some more. Maybe go to a dog park? The one just up the street is ample and cool to explore. Or we can just stay in the property, play fetch, hide and seek.
