I have been taking care of other people’s pets for over 15 years. It used to be a favor for friends and a way to make some extra money. Now I do it for friends and strangers because I genuinely enjoy being around animals. I live near a park where dogs can roam free or on leash. There is also the Amsterdam Zoo across the street where dogs can stroll to their heart’s content through the garden. I live in a huge two story, two bedroom apartment so animals that stay with me will have plenty of space to roam. I do have two cats so they need to be friendly with other cats. I am also able to stay at the owner’s home as long as I am given keys and access to the building. Am willing to come by one or more times per day for an hour or two to play with your cats, clean their litter box, make sure they have food and water and be a welcoming presence for them. I can also stay overnight if that is preferred. Pets tend to find me a warm and welcoming presence and I am a very calm person in general. I’m also reliable and consistent so I say I’m going to do something, I commit to it.
