About Silvia

I have always loved caring for animals and hope to provide your special family member with tender loving care. 

My partner and I currently live together in an apartment with no balcony/yard. We have an open layout living room, kitchen, and study area, as well as multiple rooms in a 135 m² apartment with elevator access. Many parks and grassy areas nearby. Situated near the LRC / Terwijde. Waterwinpark, Maxima Park, Haarrijnseplas, & dog parks close by. 

I have many years of experience owning, fostering, and caring for both other people's pets and my own. I took animal husbandry courses and have basic knowledge of animal first aid. Also, 3 years in Future Farmers of America (FFA). Raising rabbits and cavies, dogs, cats, horses, goats, pigs, sheep, cattle, and horses. Pets with medical issues are not a problem. We prefer stays of under a week initially, unless it is a small non-dog or cat. However, this is negotiable, depending on the pet's personality and the first meeting. Special dietary restrictions, mobility issues, and nighttime care can be provided.

I am available for sudden On-call Visits (e.g., baby birth, family death, hospital visit, etc.).

I own a pet bike trailer/stroller to accommodate senior, young, and disabled pets. I have access to car sharing and a driver's license (at your expense).

My female dog Luna is NOT sterilized; therefore, intact males must be vetted before staying at my home.

***We expect a litter of puppies between 27 October and 12 November 2025. Therefore, pets must be fully vaccinated before staying at our place.****

!!!!We do NOT accommodate intact males to stay with us between the birth and January 2026!!!!

Walks are a maximum of 30 min unless otherwise arranged, depending on weather and other agreements with the pet parent. Additional time is 5 euros/15min. 

Home Visits encompass feeding, providing water, cleaning the bowl, and any medications. If your pet needs a walk outside the home/yard, it is an additional 5 euros per 15 minutes.

Daycare involves 2 walks per day, 2 meals, and lots of cuddles.

An overnight stay involves 3 meals and 3-4 walks. With prior discussions and agreement, the pet can also be taken on trips to nearby beaches, forests, and other destinations included in our weekend and summer excursions. 

Homestays will include overnight supervision and climate/light control, mailbox duties, and cleanup after the pet and me. I stay all day/night in the home with the pet and carry out similar care as daycare in your home. 

For cavies, guinea pigs, rabbits, or other small animals, as well as farm animals, customised care will be provided. Attention will be paid to their health and noise. I have previously cared for and owned pedigree cavies, and I am aware of their needs; however, I am flexible. I do not currently own a cavy/rabbit enclosure, so this would need to be provided for boarding at my home. Otherwise, I can visit your home. 

Cavies/Rabbits/Reptiles/Amphibians/Etc 10 €/day for boarding/ 5 € for each additonal pet. For home visits same fees as cats & dogs apply but billed only per home not per pet with a 20% discount.
