Hi! (Mijn naam is) My name is Denise and I love animals. I can speak both Dutch and English, dus als iemand een Nederlandse oppas voor dieren nodig heeft, kunnen jullie altijd bij mij terecht! I have found that Pawshake is an amazing job with the opportunity to meet awesome ones who live close by! At home I have always been surrounded animals, having a dog for 13 years, 3 cats over the past 14 years, guiney pigs, rabbits, fish, hamsters and I did horse riding for multiple years. But now that I am a student and have moved out of my parents house, animals are almost nowhere to be seen and therefore I think being a pet sitter, dog walker, or caring for a dog or cat would be amazing!
I'm 23 and as mentioned before, am a student at Groningen University. In terms of experience and my motivations, I have always loved taking care of animals and I'm most happy and myself when around them.
I offer house sitting services, walking and feeding, and house visits mainly. This includes dog walks from 20-60 minutes depending on the type of dog (smaller shorter, larger longer) and I like to make sure I play with cats for about half an hour (unless you request otherwise, same goes for the dog walks), so they don't feel too lonely. I live close to a park so walking dogs is always an option too! But I would love to have animals over anytime as well! The house I live in at the moment isn't huge, but I would love to watch any animals for a few days! Home visits include me taking a picture or giving an update on how your pet is doing and being there for a while to make sure the pet is doing okay.
I am almost always available as I am a student I don't have a set schedule and I am entering my thesis track (therefore no set classes), so it's up to you! House sitting will usually be a few days (no limit). If there is anything else you would like to know, feel free to message me! (Als er nog iets is waar U vragen over hebt kunt U mij gerust een berichtje sturen!)
The best we could ever expect! Top!
Denise is a great catsitter - my cats were at ease with her when she first came over and during our vacation, we often received updates and photos. Communication was smooth as well - I would definitely recommend having Denise watch your pets and would surely book her again!
