About Renato

Hello, I'm Renato, a marine biologist with master’s and PhD in Science. Also, Postdoc position in Neurosciences, Animal Physiology, and Aquaculture (fish farm). My love for animals and dedication to their well-being has been a cornerstone of my personal and professional life. Although I am new to pet sitting, my extensive background in biology and hands-on experience with various animals’ species equip me with a unique set of skills and knowledge to provide exceptional care your pets.

- Why choose me?

Educational background.
1) Marine biologist: my undergraduate studies provide a solid foundation in animal physiology, behavior, and ecology.
2) Master’s and PhD in science: my graduate research focused on animal welfare, enhancing my understanding of their needs and how ensure their health and happiness. Additionally, my focus was about animal physiology, i.e., studying and understanding the biological functioning of animals.
3) All of these positions (postdoc) involved my professional development in animal biology, focusing mainly on understanding physiology, neuroscience (behavioral) and animal production (aquaculture).

Passion for animals.
I have a lifelong love for animals, from pets like dogs, cats, and birds to more exotic species. This passion drives me to provide the best care possible.

Animal well-being expertise.

My studies have equipped me with knowledge about animal nutrition, behavior, and health. I understand how to recognize signs of distress or illness and respond appropriately.

- Services offered.


Daily pet care. Ensuring your pet has fresh food, water, and a clean-living environment.
Exercise and playtime: providing physical and mental stimulation through walks, play session, and interactive activities.
Health monitoring: keeping an eye on your pet's health, including administering medications if required.

- Why I am right fit for your pet.

My scientific background ensures that I approach pet sitting with methodological and informed mindset. I am dedicated to creating safe, loving, and stimulating environment for your pets. Whether it's recognizing changes in behavior, or providing enriching activities, I bring a comprehensive and caring approach to pet sitting. I am excited to bring my knowledge and passion for animals to your pet's care, ensuring they receive the best possible attention and love while you're away.

It is important to note that I work in the morning. Visits are made right after my work. Around 10 am.
