About Maria Paula

Hi there!

This is Maria and Michael. We are the proud of having a lovely shorthair kitten, Nesta, as part of our family. We have both have pets our whole lives and would be more than happy to make your pet part of your family while you're away!

We bring the following experience:

- We have looked after bunnies, turtles, birds, dogs and cats. 

- Last year we took part in training an Australian Shepperd named Alicia to become a disability support dog with the program 'Dogs for life'. Sadly, because of her free spirit, she only lasted a month in the program, and so did we... However, we learned a heap of tricks to handle and entretain dogs from this training!

- We brought up our baby Nesta since she was 2 months old, coming up with creative ways of keeping entretained and mentally engaged while being an indoor cat. 

- Maria has been a long-life cat and dog owner.

What we offer:

- For stays at our place, we have a strict one booking policy, meaning that we can focus on your pet alone and give them all the attention and love they need. 

- We commit to following your pet's routine, as we understand this is important for their wellbeing (and yours as well while away from your loved one!), including administring any medication, special dietary requirements, food schedule, playtime, and stimulation activities your pet may be used to. 

- For stays at our place, we have a small backyard, without direct access to roads and high-fenced. 

- For stays at our place, we are only able to take up indoor trained pets. For dogs, we do not take puppies and not large breeds. We welcome kittens.

- For stays at your place, we are happy to take up any dog/puppy you have.

We look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Maria & Michael
