Milena Moraes

Hello! I'm a Brazilian-Portuguese-Canadian professional currently living in Canada, with a passion for animals, travel, and discovering new places.

I'm currently the proud mom of three wonderful dogs: Penelope, my Shih Tzu; T'Challa, my Mastiff; and Kirby, my Golden Retriever. They're very much part of my family! I'm also a proud mom of two grown sons, aged 29 and 23, who live in Canada. Leaving them behind will certainly be emotional, but I'm equally excited about this new chapter in my life! I've accepted an exciting opportunity to work remotely with Wella, and I'm planning to move to Europe in January 2027.

I'm a mature, responsible, organized, and independent person who enjoys a peaceful lifestyle, nature, and experiencing different cultures. Having lived internationally, I appreciate the opportunity to explore new communities and experience everyday life as a local.

House sitting is a wonderful fit for my lifestyle because it combines my love of animals with my desire to travel throughout Europe, particularly Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, and other beautiful destinations.

I am respectful of other people's homes, attentive to details, and committed to keeping everything clean, safe, and well cared for. I speak English and Portuguese and value open communication, honesty, and reliability.

I'm flexible about destinations and particularly interested in stays of several weeks or longer. I would love to give homeowners peace of mind while enjoying the companionship of their pets and discovering new places.

I'm a lifelong animal lover and dedicated dog owner, with over 35 years of experience caring for pets of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, including large dogs that require patience, confidence, and attentive handling.

Over the years, I've learned how important it is to understand each animal's unique personality, recognize subtle changes in behaviour, and create a calm, loving, and reassuring environment. I'm comfortable managing feeding schedules, walks, daily routines, companionship, and following specific care instructions.

My three dogs will join me in Europe in July 2027, so until then, I would absolutely love to share my affection and care with other people's furry family members. House and pet sitting feels like the perfect opportunity to enjoy the companionship of animals while discovering new places and settling into European life.

When it comes to caring for a home, I'm just as attentive and responsible. I take pride in keeping spaces clean, organized, and welcoming, always respecting the homeowner's privacy, belongings, and instructions.

Although I'm new to house sitting through an online platform, I bring decades of personal experience caring for my own pets and home, along with the reliability, responsibility, and communication skills I've developed throughout my professional career.

I'm more than happy to provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. I also welcome a video call before any stay so we can get to know each other and make sure everyone feels comfortable.

Above all, I want you to enjoy your time away knowing that your home is in good hands and your beloved pets are receiving the same love, attention, and affection I give my own!
