I am a calm, reliable, and attentive person who truly cares about the wellbeing of animals. I live in central Manchester and have spent my whole life around pets. In Brazil, I left behind my dog and cats, who I am currently in the process of bringing to the UK. Because of that, looking after other people’s pets is not just a job for me — it’s also a way of offering the care, affection, and security I would want for my own animals.

Beyond my own pets, I have been pet sitting in Levenshulme since 2024, staying in my customers’ homes when they travel.

I have experience with shy, elderly, and sensitive pets, and I always respect each animal’s personality, routine, and comfort levels. Whether cats or dogs, I focus on building trust, keeping their normal habits, and ensuring they feel safe and relaxed at home. I also send clear daily updates so owners can feel reassured.

My goal is to provide responsible, thoughtful, and loving care whenever you are away.

Specific Pets I’ve Cared For

I recently cared for two pets in Manchester — Abelinha (cat) and Sukka (dog) — each for one full month.

Abelinha is a very gentle cat who had a skin allergy when I started looking after her. I followed her treatment plan carefully: applying her medicated cream at the right times, monitoring her skin daily, keeping her environment clean, and giving her plenty of calm, gentle company. Her allergy improved noticeably with consistent care and attention.

Sukka is a young dog who was transitioning to a raw-food diet. At first, he struggled with the new food and would often vomit. I worked patiently with him, introducing the food gradually, mixing textures, giving small portions, and observing what worked best for his stomach. Over the month, he learned to enjoy the raw diet without discomfort or vomiting.

These experiences strengthened my ability to handle pets with different needs — medical care, dietary transitions, and sensitive personalities — always with patience, observation, and kindness.

Dog Walking – How I Walk Dogs

When I walk dogs, I always adapt to their needs. Energetic dogs get longer, stimulating walks with time to explore and release energy. Senior, shy, or sensitive dogs receive slower, calmer walks with plenty of reassurance. I use secure leads, avoid unsafe areas, and constantly monitor body language to keep every walk relaxed and positive. I also make sure they have water breaks and gentle encouragement throughout the walk.
