I had my own dog, a whippet, for 12 years, so I’m very familiar with everyday life with a dog: walks, feeding, playing, giving them space to rest, and of course plenty of attention. I miss having a dog around and would love to occasionally look after someone else’s. I work from home a lot and live in Hoorn, so I can be quite flexible with walks and pet sitting. It’s important to me that a dog feels safe and comfortable. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible and pay attention to what they enjoy and what they’d rather avoid. I have the most experience with sighthounds, but I’m happy to look after other dogs too. I’m probably not the best match for very large, strong dogs or dogs with serious behavioural issues.
