Experience: 8 yrs
Hi! I'm Manuela, a dependable and caring pet sitter with over 8 years of experience caring for animals. I have been a sitter to dogs, cats, fish, chickens, ducks, and more. Through these experiences, I have developed strong skills in understanding animal behavior, following specific care instructions, and ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to provide personalized care tailored to their needs. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply providing companionship, I am committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind, knowing their beloved companions are in caring and responsible hands.
There are very few people I trust completely with my home, my son, and my dog, and Manuela is at the very top of that list. She is truly exceptional, and I recommend her with my whole heart. I've known Manuela for five years, first as my student and now as someone I trust implicitly. Watching her grow into the incredible young woman she is today has been such a privilege. She will complete her MBA this December, and she is every bit as responsible, intelligent, and hardworking as you would expect. More importantly, she has a genuinely kind heart and an unwavering sense of integrity. She has stayed in our home while we've traveled, cared for our son, and looked after our bulldog puppy, Winnie. Anyone who has owned a bulldog knows they can be a high-risk breed that requires constant attention and careful monitoring. Leaving Winnie with anyone else would make me anxious, but when Manuela is here, I can actually relax and enjoy our time away because I know she is in the very best hands. My son absolutely adores her and is always excited when he knows she's coming. She is warm, patient, fun, and attentive, and she has a natural ability to make children feel safe and comfortable. She also treats our home with tremendous respect and consistently goes above and beyond without ever being asked. Finding someone you can truly trust is rare. Manuela isn't just dependable; she's the person I call when everything that matters most to me is in her care. If I could give her more than five stars, I would. Any family would be incredibly lucky to have her.
