Valecans home started in the middle of the pandemic. I worked remotely and spent all day alone on the computer, so I just wanted to have company in my daily life, I started taking care of 1 or 3 dogs per month, and with the help of referrals and social networks, I was able to find more prospects. Little by little, Valecans has become a home for those dogs that cannot go on a trip with their owners, that suffer from separation anxiety, or are too puppies to leave them alone, so they come to my house daily and spend the day with me, and then they return to their homes. I am currently doing it in my apartment, which is sometimes complicated since I can only have a few dogs simultaneously. In the high seasons, I was forced to reject some, which made me see a great opportunity and be able to take this passion to a formal business.
