Loving & careful. Grandma's house!

Pet care experience

My dogs died very old and I moved to US. As I love dogs and also worked in Brazil with abandoned and mistreated animals all my life, I’ve decided to take care of someone's else dogs, instead of having my own, giving them all my love and attention. My decision of not having my own dogs is ‘ ‘cause I travel a lot. But when at home my work is mostly at the computer around 3 hours a day. So I have enough free time to spend with my beloved “step” dogs. I have 4 grandpets: 2 dogs and 2 cats that visit me once in a while ❤️❤️❤️❤️ The “step” dogs that I host in my house can be in all places and sleep with me in bed. I call my house "Grandma's home"!

Vera was great with Cody, Cody gets panic attacks when left alone. Vera sat with him in our home for the entire day. She took him for walks, and even got him to eat the picky eater he is. When Vera walked in our home she knew how to interact with him and they bonded. She is trustworthy and would be loyalty to your pets.

This was my first time using this type of dog sitting and I was a bit apprehensive especially because it became a last minute situation. I was beyond pleased at the frequent updates and the way in which Mia was cared for. I would use Vera again in a heartbeat! Mia was safe, happy, and spoiled!

Words cannot describe my gratitude to Vera and Frank. We left our dog, Cooper, in their care over the Thanksgiving vacation. The following day, Vera contacted me. She did not like the way Cooper was behaving and was concerned that he had vomited. She took him to our vet. Cooper was in liver failure and had pancreatitis. He was hospitalized. Vera visited him twice a day at the hospital until we were able to return. She sent me videos and text updates on him. Yes, we were in touch with the vets but the personal attention from Vera and Frank was wonderful. Were it not for Vera's quick action, I am certain we would have lost Cooper. She is a smart, caring person. You would be lucky to have her and Frank watch your dog!

Information Vera S. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know her or his preferences, if they fear something (sounds, lightenings, etc), their habits, if there's any special care (medications) and what kind of things they like for fun. The idea is to do everything that the pets are used to in order to make them t feel good, safe and secure with me.

A typical day

I live in a gated condo with lots of places to walk and play. We can walk and play and have lots of fun together. The ones who like to be taken in my arms during the day, are very welcome to jump and stay, even when I am at the computer.
