About AzorPaws
Born from a love of animals and the Azores, we connect pet owners with trusted local caregivers across the beautiful islands.
Our Story
AzorPaws was founded in 2024 on the island of São Miguel when Ana Sofia realised there was no reliable, technology-first pet care service in the Azores. As a dog owner herself, she knew the struggle of finding trusted care when travelling or working long hours.
Today, AzorPaws serves pet owners across multiple Azorean islands, offering dog walking, cat sitting, pet transport, and our signature free hugs programme. Every caregiver is background-checked, insured, and genuinely passionate about animals.

Every pet is treated like our own.
Safety Always
