About Elwina

13 years experience

Ik hou van de natuur, ben vrolijk en vriendelijk

in mijn jeugd hebben we meerdere honden gehad. Dat waren geen rashonden, maar ik genoot ervan om met ze te wandelen. Ook heb ik met heel veel honden via Petbnb gewandeld, zie de reviews. Helaas lukt dat niet meer in verband met een instabiele knie en enkel. Wel kan ik katten, cavia’s, konijnen e.d. verzorgen; knaagdieren heb ik vroeger veel gehad en inmiddels heb ik ruime ervaring met katten. Ik verzorg de huisdieren graag als u zelf niet in de gelegenheid bent om voor ze te zorgen in verband met vakantie of iets anders. Ik vind het ontzettend fijn om op die manier een ander te kunnen helpen, en eigenlijk helpen we elkaar. Ik ben zelf woonachtig in Voorschoten en kom met de eBike naar uw huisdier toe. Door weer en wind, want regen is nooit een probleem.

Elwina heeft voor de eerste keer voor ons huisdier gezorgd en wij zijn meer dan tevreden!! Elwina is zeer zorgzaam, lief, betrouwbaar en is een echte dierenvriend. Ze heeft ons goed op de hoogte gehouden door ons met regelmaat foto's en berichtjes te sturen. Wij hopen in de toekomst nog vaak van haar diensten gebruik te kunnen maken. Elwina, SUPER bedankt!!!

Mijn hondje Snoes is altijd erg blij als ze Elwina ziet en gaat graag met Elwina mee op pad! Elwina zorgt altijd goed voor Snoes, ze krijgt alle ruimte om te snuffelen en uiteraard om haar behoeftes te doen. Ook krijg ik achteraffoto’s van de wandeling waar ik m blij mee ben.

Once again Elwina came to the rescue to care for our Kiwi whilst away on summer holidays. This time Elwina really outdid herself. She had to come visit kiwi double the amount of times to give her medicines, which she diligently did every day. She send ups pictures and videos every time, we could see Kiwi was happy, well fed, stress free and recovering from her illness. Elwina also kindly helped us with so many minor details - opening and closing the windows depending on the weather, making sure Kiwi has extra water on especially hot days, watering our plants and protecting them from the harsh sun by putting them in the shower. I cn't say enough good things about her, if it weren't for her I would not have been at peace during our holidays but knowing she's there to care for our little one is the best reassurance we can get. Thank you Elwina again for your invaluable help!

Dear Marie, thank you so much for yr sincere and positive words! It makes me humble to read them. So happy that it all worked out so well and that Kiwi was so positive and relaxed too. I did it all with the love she needed and deserved. I am really glad I could help you both in taking care of her. Thank you again for yr faith in me!

We couldn't be happier about Elwin taking care of our cat Kiwi! She is extremely diligent in taking care of our little one, and the kindest and sweetest person too. We got lots of pictures and videos on each visit, and even an extra unplanned visit because there was a storm and Elwina wanted to make sure Kiwi as alright. She's very professional and caring, knew exactly how to approach Kiwi and even though Kiwi is a very shy rescue cat she warmed up to Elwina and was not afraid. It's difficult to find someone with a big heart and so much patience to take care of a cat like Kiwi, and I'm so happy to have left her in the best hands!
