Hello! My name is Marília, and I am currently studying English in Ireland. I have grown up surrounded by both small and large animals, and caring for them has always been a passion of mine. I started a Veterinary Medicine degree in Brazil, which gave me valuable knowledge about animal health, behaviour, and welfare. I have worked as a professional pet sitter and also owned a small dog boarding and daycare business. In addition, I have hands-on experience with bathing dogs, nail trimming, hygienic grooming, wound care, applying topical medications, and giving oral medication safely. When walking your dog, I always allow plenty of time for sniffing and exploring, as I believe this is an important part of their mental stimulation. At the same time, I stay attentive throughout the walk to make sure they do not eat anything unsafe or get injured. I also enjoy studying dog breeds and canine behaviour, which helps me better understand each dog’s individual personality and needs. I currently have three dogs of different breeds, so I am very comfortable caring for dogs with different temperaments and energy levels. I treat every pet as if they were my own, always providing patient, loving, and responsible care. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you are away.
