Hello my name is Gemma and I live in an 145 m2 apartment with my husband Ben. We are an Australian couple who have been living and working in the Netherlands for over 3 years. We are both used to having our own pets in Australia (golden retriver, maltese x west highland terrier, british shorthair) however due to work commitments we are unable to commit to having our own here. Therefore, we would love to take care of your dog or cat on the weekend while you are away from home. Our apartment is spacious enough to take care of your pet where they will recieve our full attention and loving care. I can also arrange for a home visit for 30-60 mins where I will spend time with your pet - feeding, playing, scooping the litter box, changing water or just spending time with them. I'll also happily take your dog for a walk to keep them happy and healthy. Whether your dog enjoys a short stroll or a long walk, I'm here to keep them active and engaged.

Gemma and Ben took really good care of my Labradoodle Dalì. She was very relaxed with them, got lots off attention and looked great when we picked her up again.

Gemma (and Ben) have been friendly, and took very well care of our dog Lucky. On short notice, they decided to take care of Lucky, walked with him two times in a morning and our dog came back "Lucky". Trustable, dog friendly and flexible companions for your pet, do not hesitate to contact them!!

Gemma and Ben were just the loveliest people, they took such good care of our dog. It was such a lovely day for Hektor! He had a great time with Gemma and Ben, and felt right at home from the start.
