A little background, I grew up with a Labrador which has shaped my love of dogs(angels) Dogs are such a blessing and deserve only the best from us to take care of them.

My partner Phil and I very often look after other people's dogs (friends,clients,family) big or small, old or young, because it gives us so much joy to be around them, even if for a short time. Phil has also joined the dog loving community since being together almost a decade and we strive to adopt one of our own someday:) In the meantime we thought it's a good idea to join Pawshake to fill the void of a dog less home, not to ask for a lot of money but to help people who need a trustworthy loving home for their dog child.

We have a lot of time to spend with the dog in the days and nights. (I work 30hours/week outside the house and my partner works from home full time so the dog will hardly ever have to be alone.

We live next to at least 2 very nearby parks and live in a quiet residential neighborhood away from very busy streets in case the dog prefers being away from a lot of noise. If they like adventuring in the city we can definitely take it around with us for city errands and hangouts. (We also have a bakfiets in case of older dogs that cannot easily get around)

We like to take dogs for multiple long walks daily depending on what they want, morning, middday, evening. If they like to run or play with other dogs then we can take them to an area where there is more space to run free(if ok with owner) or we can easily take them to quiet parks where they will not be bothered by other dogs or people if they prefer that:)

We are used to dogs that have very particular food prep, also for allergies/preferences and also dogs that need medications etc.

It is good to know we live on the 2nd floor with wide carpeted stairs (not too steep) with no elevator, so in case they cannot do stairs it may be tough but if they are light enough to carry it is absolutely no problem for us.

We would love to update the owners with lots of photos to see what their doggo is up to daily:)
