Hi, you have found me! :D My name is Effy.

After a long trip to México, I am back in Amsterdam! 

I have been living in the city of Amsterdam for the past 12 years. I love animals, especially those with whom we spend much time cuddling, interacting, and co-inhabiting in the same space. I used to live with a cat and a dog when I was younger and I have learned a lot about life and love through spending time and living with them. They also made me a more curious, cheerful, and caring person who have developed a lot of deep connections with more-than-humans and the world. I become someone who enjoy taking care of others and working with different challenges.

I have also been a pet sitter for the past 10 years for many friends and families. Mostly I have experiences with cats and smaller animals and I am excited to spend time with them and know them personally! I find it very important to be attuned to the distinctive personalities and needs of our furry friends and I have learned to adjust my approaches by listening to them well and making attentive observations.

I work as a freelancer in the art and creative industries therefore my schedule is very flexible. I am happy to come to your place in all areas of Amsterdam to feed, spend time, and take care of your cats or small animals and I would love to walk your dogs based on your needs and theirs. I can stay at yours if that works better for your loved ones. But most importantly, I am more than excited to meet you and accommodate you and your (furry) friends’ needs and wants in person. Let’s have a chat!
