About
Founded by Andrea C., who left the corporate world in 2022 to pursue her lifelong passion for animal care. The Pura Vida team consists of employees—not contractors—each completing a 10-step hiring process that includes background checks and CPR certification.
How It Works
You start with a required meet-and-greet so the team learns your pet's personality and routine. From there, they coordinate with your planner, photographer, and venue to build a custom timeline. On the day, your attendant handles transport, aisle walks, photos, breaks, and everything in between.
Monday–Friday 9am–5pm, Saturday–Sunday 10am–3pm. Bookings based on availability; last-minute accepted for additional fee.
