Hi :) I’m Rita, and I would love to take care of your cat or dog!

I've had cats since I was 14, and I’ve been secretly influencing everyone to do the same ever since! My first cats were Riscas and Simba, and now I have Balu, who lives with me in Amsterdam, and Caju, Michi, Mel, and Gizmo in Portugal. I’m super comfortable around them and love getting to know their personalities. I’m used to taking care of cats, from feeding and cleaning their litter to playing and cuddling. I also love dogs and would be very happy to play with or walk yours.

For dog walks, I usually walk 30min around the neighborhood and nearby parks. I’m happy to keep walks calm and relaxed or make them more active, depending on what your dog is used to and enjoys. I feel more comfortable walking one dog at a time. 

I’ve been living in Amsterdam for almost 3 years, and I’m also a Pawshake user, so I totally understand your worries about choosing someone to care for your pet. I’ll do my best to keep them happy and send you photos or videos while you’re away. Right now, I have a super flexible schedule, so I can do either 1 or 2 visits per day (or even more), 30min each, preferably in Amsterdam-Noord and Amsterdam-Centrum. I’m flexible with visit times and can adapt to your pet’s routine and needs. I'm also able to give meds to most cats. We can meet beforehand to make sure I'm a good match for your pet and to pick up the keys.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out :)
