Hi, I'm Maddie! I moved here in 2022 from Canada to study a masters in environmental anthropology at UU. My mom is a veterinarian and I grew up surrounded by animals (mostly dogs and cats). I also spent a lot of time at her clinic and I'm very confident with my abilities to care for both cats and dogs, including young and old pets, those with trickier behaviours, or pets requiring oral or injectable medications. I have never done pet sitting for money but have done it often back home for friends and family over the last 5 years. I have cared for up to 4 dogs at a time for a maximum of one week and have also fostered cats that required oral medication for over 6 months. As a lifelong animal lover, I am dearly missing having pets around here in Utrecht. Spending time with animals is always such a fulfilling experience. Walking in nature, taking care of, and spending time with animals has always been something that makes me feel grounded.
Services: I can offer dog walking at any time of day, as well as home visits. I can offer pet sitting within the owners home. I hope to hear from you! ☺️

Specific Skills

Familiar with dog training techniques
Since my mom is a veterinarian I have a lot of experience with service trips aiding rescue animals, and working in her clinic. This has often meant handling animals with illnesses and in need of medication as well as with behavioural issues and needing to be held during administration. I have also fostered my own pets and cared for many dogs and cats over the years.
