About Gabija

I am a true animal lover with a gentle and caring personality. Spending time with pets brings me joy, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I am attentive to each pet’s needs, routines, and personality, whether it is playtime, walks, feeding, or simply companionship.

A little about me: I am an International Communication student currently studying in Groningen. I am originally from Lithuania, where my love for animals began. When I was eight years old, I got my first puppy, a Yorkshire Terrier named Pepe. She was the sweetest and most loving dog I have ever known. We grew up together and shared countless happy moments. Sadly, after 14 wonderful years, she developed cancer and I had to say goodbye to her. On a happier note, my family now has a French Bulldog named Kruopa, who has become the princess of our home in Lithuania.

Since moving to the Netherlands for my studies, I do not have pets here, and I truly miss being surrounded by animals. That is one of the main reasons I want to be a pet sitter. I love their companionship, warmth, and the joy they bring to everyday life.

I have experience caring for dogs, hamsters, and rabbits, and I would be very happy to care for cats as well. Animals will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will treat your pet with the same kindness, patience, and love as my own.

When caring for pets in my home (boarding or daycare), my priority is to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible so they feel safe and relaxed. Before each stay, I ask owners detailed questions about their pet’s daily schedule, including feeding times, walk routines, sleep habits, favorite toys, and any special needs or sensitivities. This helps me adapt my care to the pet rather than changing what they are used to.

During their stay, pets receive regular supervision, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live next to a park, which provides a safe and pleasant environment for walks and outdoor time with dogs. I always follow the owner’s instructions regarding leash use, exercise level, and interactions with other animals.

I also maintain close communication with owners. I am happy to send updates, photos, and messages during holidays or time away, so you feel reassured that your pet is happy and well cared for. In the unlikely event of any health or safety concern, I would immediately contact the owner and follow their preferred emergency instructions.

My goal is to create a calm, loving, and secure environment where pets feel at home and cared for as individuals.
