About Alice

Hello!

I am a 31 year old New Zealander living in Amsterdam. I work as the chief operations officer for a jewellery company (from home in De Pijp) and I adore animals. I grew up on an organic permaculture farm in New Zealand and have been surrounded by animals my entire life. I specialise in high energy dogs but love every dog I have the pleasure of meeting. As I can't have my own dog in my apartment, I would love to care for yours. I have a fun relaxed approach with dogs and love to watch them explore, sniff around and be themselves. 

I offer walking services, overnight care, animal sitting, almost anything! Feel free to ask.

In New Zealand & Australia I worked as a volunteer for 10 years in dog care. I supported and lived with foster dogs that were awaiting adoption, helped to rehabilitate dogs after injury/surgery and helped the adoption teams find suitable homes for the animals. Dog health and well being is very important to me and I am highly trained in recognising dog behaviours. 

I have a lot of experience with dog sitting, dog walking and dog care. I have many references that I would love to share. I speak English and some Italian. Dutch translation below.

Hallo!

Ik ben een 31 jaar oud Nieuw-Zeelander en woon in Amsterdam. Ik werken als Chief Operations Officer voor een sieradenbedrijf (vanuit huis in De Pijp) en ben dol op dieren. Ik ben opgegroeid op een biologische permacultuurboerderij in Nieuw-Zeeland en ben mijn hele leven omringd geweest door dieren. Ik ben gespecialiseerd in honden met een hoge energie, maar hou van elke hond die ik heb mogen ontmoeten. Aangezien ik mijn eigen hond niet in mijn appartement kan hebben, zou ik graag voor de jouwe willen zorgen. Ik heb een leuke ontspannen benadering met honden en kijk graag hoe ze ontdekken, rondsnuffelen en zichzelf zijn.

Ik bied wandeldiensten, nachtopvang, dierenoppas, bijna alles! Vragen staat vrij.

In Nieuw Zeeland & Australië heb ik 10 jaar als vrijwilliger gewerkt in de hondenopvang. Ik ondersteunde en leefde met pleeghonden die op adoptie wachtten, hielp bij het rehabiliteren van honden na een verwonding/operatie en hielp de adoptieteams bij het vinden van geschikte huizen voor de dieren. De gezondheid en het welzijn van honden is erg belangrijk voor mij en ik ben hoog opgeleid in het herkennen van hondengedrag.

Ik heb veel ervaring met hondenoppas, hondenuitlaatservice en hondenverzorging. Ik heb veel referenties die ik graag wil delen. Ik spreek Engels en een beetje Italiaans.

Donna spent 8 days with Alice and her boyfriend and she got a 5 star hotel treatment! Alice was really great with Donna, very accommodating and perfect communication. I received lovely pictures and videos every day. Donna was super happy and I would bring her back to Alice any day. She is the kind of person you immediately trust. Highly recommended!!
