Emily

Hi! My name is Emily and I am a 34-year-old

recent transplant here in Amsterdam from New York City. I absolutely love dogs, and I can't wait to meet yours. My love for dogs began growing up when I had an adorable Samoyed/Terrier mutt named Scooter who I was responsible for taking care of. When I got older, I was never able to get a dog of my own because I worked long hours, so I walked and took care dogs whenever I could, in particular my roommate's dog (the small, gray, fluffy pup in my profile pictures) who I often took care of and walked when she had to go out of town. I have an easy-going personality and I think most dogs enjoy being around me. : )

I am a journalist and I am working here in Amsterdam doing some freelance consulting. This leaves me with a lot of time and flexibility and my work here does not require any travel, so I am usually in town. Walks during the day or at odd hours are no problem for me, just let me know what you need! I could become your regular walker, or just walk your dog as needed. I am an avid runner, and I could easily take your dog running if he/she has lots of energy. Otherwise, we can visit a nearby park and walk around your neighborhood, or play fetch for 45 - 60 minutes. Whatever helps your dog get exercise and makes him/her most comfortable. After we connect, we can work together to figure out a routine and walk-length that best fits your dog's needs.

I am also available to do home visits, up to twice a day. Je parle Francais and ik leer Nederlands. Looking forward to meeting you and your wonderful dog! References on request.
