Gustavo

Hello! My name is Gustavo Pinheiro, I'm a 29 years old Brazilian, currently living in Melbourne for a 6 months PhD exchange at RMIT University.

Before arriving here, I used to take care of many pets, dogs and cats, offering day care, dog walking, and house sitting. I've being doing these services for more than 4 years, never had any negative experience during this time, and I'm really hoping to keep with this hobby here in Australia!

I used to live with dogs in my family during 23 years, period that I spent on learning how to take care of them, understanding their needs, and comprehending their behaviors. I have experience taking care of cats and all sizes dogs, puppies and also eldest ones, being capable to give them oral medication if necessary.

I live by myself in a small studio (for this reason I'm able to accept only one pet per booking). The building is located on Flinders street, at CBD, also next to dog friendly parks! I also have the Work With Children card!

It will be a pleasure to spend a good time with your pet!

Current services:

- Home visit: two or three times per day (30-40 minutes). During the visits I'll care for your pets, respecting their regular routine, giving them attention, and cleaning/organizing whatever is necessary to keep them comfortable!

- Day care: guarantee your regular walks, playtime activities at friendly dog parks, respecting their habits and schedules regarding eating and sleeping times.

- Sleepover: I'll keep your pet comfortable, providing regular walks, playing, giving them attention, and caring to keep them as cozy as possible, so they can feel safe and happy, like a second home! Always respecting their routine and habits!

- Dog walks: walk with your pet twice a day during 20-30 min (or as much as necessary).
