About Me Animals have always been part of my life. My daughter recently took our family dog with her to university, so I no longer have a dog living with me — and I truly miss that daily companionship. I grew up with dogs and cats, and today I still support rescue animals – at my country home in Brazil, I care for 14 dogs and 10 cats. Here in Zürich, I no longer keep my own pets due to frequent travel, but looking after dogs and cats gives me the chance to stay close to them, share my love, and offer them a safe and caring environment. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your furry friend. 🐾 My Services ✔ Day Care at My Home (7:00 am – 7:00 pm) Safe, cozy family-style environment Small groups (max. 3–4 dogs) or one-to-one care depending on compatibility Lots of attention, play, and rest time Pick-up & drop-off service available ✔ Half-Day Care (Mondays only) From 7:00 am until 1:00 pm Includes a long walk and time to rest Perfect for dogs needing structured morning care ✔ Holiday Care / Overnight Boarding 24-hour boarding with access to beautiful walking areas and two large verandas (if the owner permits) Boarding is per 24h from drop-off (new day begins after that) No unspayed female dogs, as pets have free access to all parts of the house Female dogs in heat cannot be accepted ✔ Extra Care Puppy training support (basic obedience & good habits) Brain games and mental stimulation for happy, relaxed pets Light bathing and grooming if needed – for example on hot days or if your dog gets a bit messy Administering medication and special care if required My Approach Every pet is unique. I adapt my care to your dog or cat’s breed, age, temperament, and energy level – whether that means long adventurous walks, play on the verandas, or quiet cuddle time. I care for animals with patience, empathy, and responsibility, just as I do for my rescues in Brazil. I never take more pets than I can give proper attention to, ensuring every guest feels safe, loved, and part of the family. I also send daily photo and video updates to keep you reassured and connected. Languages I speak English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
