Hello!
I am originally from the United States, but I have lived in the Netherlands for 10 years. Last year my family and I moved to Haarlem. We have a little zoo at home which consists of two cats, a hamster and a snake. We also just welcomed a boxer puppy to the family, so it is really a full house. Needless to say, pets are a big part of my family's life and I know how difficult it can be to find a trustworthy person to take care of them.
I have always enjoyed animals, and animals seem to warm up to me quickly.
I grew up with a dog, and spent several years pet sitting my friends' dogs just after I graduated university. I have expanded to pet sitting cats and an occasional bearded dragon since moving to the Netherlands.
Currently, I am a life coach and my partner and I have our own business. I appreciate the flexibility that allows me more time to offer others dependable and trustworthy care for their animals when needed.
With my zoo at home, I can't offer to care for your pet in my home, but I would be happy to make sure it is taken care of in your home.
I offer one or two visits a day depending on what would benefit your pet the most. I find it important to spend time with animals, playing or cuddling, or a combination of both; therefore, each house visit is a minimum of 30 minutes. In addition to taking care of your pet's needs (feeding, walking, changing/scraping the litter box, brushing, etc), I can also water plants and collect mail. I will be happy to keep you updated with daily messages and pictures if you would like.
Looking forward to meeting you and caring for your beloved pet.
Trish was very good with Moji and Lappi! We got daily photo updates, and both cats were clearly well cared for. Highly recommend if you need a reliable and loving petsitter!
thank you for taking good care
