Maila

Hello pet lovers!

My name is Maila, 32 y.o., Brazilian and resident in Potsdam. I'm a biologist, PhD in Oceanography and currently work in a research institute in Potsdam. I have two great passions in my life: the ocean and dogs. The ocean is part of my everyday-life, and although I'm not close to the coast, the ocean is in everything I think, read and write. Dogs, unfortunately, are no longer part of my routine. While working on my PhD back in Brazil during the pandemic, Sheldon (puppy-like black and white dog) and Luna (the caramel 14 y.o. lady) were my best companiors. More than physically present, they were EXTREMELY important for my mental health during such a tough period. So are they for my dear mom that lives with them in Brazil. Since I left my country, I miss petting, cuddling and taking care of pets. As my partner and I travel a lot for working purposes, we don't think this is the best moment to add a four-paws member to our team. For the moment, I would be very happy to take care of your best friend through visits, pet sitting and/or dog walks. I can provide them with medications (oral pills or applying creams, but no injections!) but no grooming or training. I'm also happy to water your plants and pick up your mail if needed! Previously, I have only taken care of friends' pets, so I still have limited experience. I'm very patient, responsible and trustworthy, though.
Please make sure your pet is fully vaccined. Other than that, count on me! 🐕🐕‍🦺🐈💙
