[I ALSO SPEAK DUTCH AND FRENCH] Hi! I'm Cécile, 38 years old, and I live in a spacious apartment in Amsterdam-West with my lovely five-year-old Pomeranian, Chilli. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can genuinely trust with your four-legged family member. Leaving your dog with someone else isn't always easy, and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing your dog is in loving, caring hands. Chilli is a very important part of my life, and I love spending time with her, whether we're exploring the neighbourhood, enjoying a walk in the park or simply relaxing together at home. **A cosy, loving home** I live in a spacious apartment close to Erasmuspark and Gerbrandypark, where there are plenty of lovely places for walks. I work from home, which means I'm around most of the day and have plenty of time to give your dog the attention, affection and companionship they deserve. To make sure every dog feels comfortable and gets enough individual attention, I welcome a maximum of two guest dogs at a time, in addition to Chilli. **What a typical day looks like** Our days are relaxed and revolve around the dogs' needs. Chilli and I usually spend around 1,5-2 hours walking each day, spread across several walks. Of course, I'll adapt the length and pace of our walks to your dog's age, energy level and preferences. Between walks, there's plenty of time for cuddles, playtime, naps and simply enjoying each other's company. I believe dogs thrive when they feel safe and their routines are respected. I'll happily follow your dog's usual feeding schedule, dietary requirements, walking habits and any special instructions. **Which dogs are welcome?** I particularly enjoy caring for small and medium-sized dogs who are house-trained, sociable and comfortable around other dogs. Since Chilli lives here too, it's important that our dogs get along. I'd therefore love to arrange a little meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure everyone feels at ease. Dogs staying with me will rarely need to be alone. If I do need to step out, I'll always take your dog's usual routine and ability to stay home alone into account, and we'll agree on this beforehand. **Peace of mind while you're away** I know how reassuring it is to receive a little update when you're away from your dog. I'll happily send you photos and messages so you can see how your furry friend is doing. My goal is simple: to give your dog a safe, happy and loving home away from home, where they're treated as part of the family. Chilli and I would love to welcome your furry friend!
