About Barbara

Hello, I'm Barbie, and I'm 32 years old. After being nomads for almost 2 years, we have settled down in Amsterdam, our favorite city with my husband Nico and our two adorable Chihuahuas, Coquita and Aureliano (yes, they have also been nomads with us!)

I have a fully fenced balcony where your small dogs can enjoy fresh air and the delightful company of my Chihuahuas. We can provide in addition two daily 30-minute outdoor adventures, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, as I live close to Rembrandtpark and Vondelpark.

Since I work from home, I can offer pet-sitting services at my place or yours. If you're looking for day care pet sitting, I can work from your home to spend as many hours as possible with your dog. I can provide two daily 30-minute outdoor walks (or more if needed) one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and even sleep at your place with your dog.

I can administer oral medication and accommodate up to 2 additional dogs apart from mine (for a total of 4 dogs at my place). We have a 75m2 apartment. All the pets I sit for are welcome to sleep with us, but if they prefer some space, they can stay in the living room.

I have a strong connection with animals; in my family's field, we had lots of different types of animals which I've always taken care of. Also, I had cared for Ramona, my first Chihuahua, for 8 wonderful years. While she is no longer with us, Coquita and Aureliano arrived to fill our lives with love and joy.

I deeply love spending time with animals, and my two Chihuahuas are proof of that. They are social, well-behaved, and incredibly happy dogs; they have been fully house-trained since they were 1 year old.

When you entrust your small dogs to me, you're not just getting a pet-sitter – you're getting a passionate and experienced caregiver who will treat your furry family members as her own. Your pets' well-being and happiness are my top priorities.

Contact me to provide your dogs with love, care, and attention. They'll be in safe, loving hands, and they'll cherish their time spent in my warm and welcoming home!

Doggy Day Care
Alessandra, 2024-07-05

I feel very lucky I found Barbara! She is an experienced and caring sitter and a lovely person.

She took wonderful care of my special-need senior dogs and the cats loved her too. Now they are all so happy when she comes in and I feel very comfortable in leaving them with her. Absolutely recommended.
