Hi! I'm Vanessa, a 22-year-old student from Poland, and I've called Amsterdam home for the past three years. I grew up in a house full of love for animals and have been around pets since I was four. At 16 I started volunteering at a dog and cat shelter, and that's where I really learned what caring for animals means. I worked with all kinds of pets, from anxious ones recovering from trauma to those who simply needed some human love and lots of cuddles. It taught me patience and how to read each animal's needs. I'm a very active person and love spending time outdoors, whether it's long walks or playing in the park. If your dog needs more energy burned, I'm happy to go running together! I live with my partner (23), also a student and a lifelong animal lover. He grew up with big dogs, so larger breeds are in very experienced hands too. We're both calm and responsible, and we'd have a pet of our own if it weren't for our regular trips home to Poland. For now, we'd love to share our time with yours! We both have flexible schedules, so your pet will get all the attention it deserves. We live right in the city centre, next to Dam Square, in a spacious 97 m² apartment with a rooftop terrace and a small garden in front of our building. Vondelpark, Oosterpark and Sarphatipark are all close by. Sarphatipark is my personal favourite, with lots of space for dogs to play and make friends. We can't wait to meet your furry friend! 🐾
