Hi! I’m Ines, a 19-year-old second-year university student who absolutely loves animals and would be very happy to look after your pet. I’m fluent in Dutch, French, English and Portuguese, and I can also hold a conversation in German if needed.

I’ve always loved being around animals and have three years of experience volunteering at a wildlife centre, where I helped care for and rehabilitate animals. I also have a dog of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, temperaments and needs. My own dog can sometimes be a little reactive around other dogs, which has taught me a lot about being patient, understanding body language and giving dogs the space and support they need. I’m therefore very happy to care for dogs who may need a little extra patience or have difficulties with socialising.

I’m happy to look after dogs of all sizes and personalities, whether they are energetic and love a long walk and lots of playtime, or prefer a calm afternoon of cuddles and relaxing. For home visits, I’m happy to spend time playing, exercising, giving attention, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company. Just let me know what your pet enjoys and how long you would like me to stay!

As a university student, I have a fairly flexible schedule, although I do occasionally have mandatory classes, university events or exam periods that I need to prioritise. I’m always transparent about my availability and will communicate in advance if anything affects our arrangements. I’m also happy to be flexible with visit times where possible.

Most importantly, I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I’d love to get to know their personality, routines and little quirks so I can give them the kind of care they’re used to at home.

I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and make sure they have a fun, happy and comfortable time while you’re away! 🐶💕
