About Marcela

My name is Marcela and I love animals, especially dogs. I'm from Brazil and I recently moved to Leuven. In Brazil, I have 7 dogs and 3 cats of differente sizes and ages. For now, they are at my parent's house, because there is a big garden and they can be happy playing all day. I miss each of my dogs and cats so much, but I wuld like to bring them to Belgium soon.

One of my dogs needs a wheelchair, so I have experience with animals that need more attention and are on continuous medication. I'm able to caring for sick animals or after a medical procedure. I know how to administer oral medications and some types of injections 

I live in a small apartamente in the center of Leuven and I can work from home, so I have plenty of time. Unfortunately, my rental agreemente does not allow me to have pets. But, for me, having the company of pets is therapy and makes me very happy. As I still can't have my puppies here with me, I would be very happy to help take care of your best friend. 

I'm available for: 

  • Walk with your dog regularly, up to twice a day, for 1 hour each, 
  • Help administer topical, oral or injectable medications, 
  • Play and entertain your pet so that he is calmer, 
  • Take car of your pet at your home, keeping ryou pet's space organized and clean,
  • I have no problems taking care or more than one pet at a time.  
  • I wold be verry happy to be your pet sitter and taking care of your pets will be a joy for me and for they! Oh, I also have experience caring for kittens, incluiding thse who need to be breastfed and I know how to give medicine to cats, if anyone needs help.

    Marcela took excellent care of our cat while we were away. Our cat is usually shy, but he took to Marcela immediately. Marcela is an excellent communicator and send us regular updates (and videos) while we were away. I'd recommend Marcela without hesitation!
