About Francois
🐾 Loving & reliable pet sitter in Amstelveen
Hi, I’m Francois! 👋
I’m originally from South Africa 🇿🇦 and have been living in the Netherlands for the past 3.5 years.
Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets. I genuinely love spending time with animals and understand that every pet has its own personality, routine and needs.
I currently have two lovely Jack Russell girls, Lulu and Maisy, who are a big part of our family. Having pets of my own, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust to look after your beloved furry family members.
🐱🐶 What I offer
I particularly enjoy looking after cats, but I’m also happy to care for dogs, provided they are friendly, easygoing and relatively chilled in nature.
I offer reliable and loving home visits, including:
* Feeding and making sure your pets have fresh water.
* Cleaning litter boxes and keeping their environment tidy.
* Walking dogs and providing exercise appropriate to their needs.
* Spending quality time playing, interacting and giving attention.
* Providing cuddles and companionship (if they enjoy it!).
* Administering medication where needed.
* Sending regular updates, photos and videos so you know how your furry family members are doing.
🏡 My availability
I work in a hybrid office/home-working arrangement, usually working from home 2–3 days per week. This gives me flexibility to arrange visits throughout the day, depending on your pet’s needs.
I’m based in Amstelveen and am happy to travel locally.
🔥Why choose me?
I understand that pets are family, and leaving them in someone else’s care requires trust. I will always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect as I would my own.
I’m fluent in English and Afrikaans and currently learning Dutch.
I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾
