Hi! My name is Bruno Monteiro, from Portugal, I’m 30 years old and currently living in Hilversum, close to the train station. I work full-time as a Night Auditor at a hotel in Amsterdam, which gives me availability during the day—usually from around 12:00 to 19:30 or 20:00, and with more flexibility on my days off.

My motivation to become a pet sitter is deeply personal. I grew up with my beloved dog, Timmy—a Husky mixed with Labrador—who was with me for 11 amazing years. We shared everything: long walks, daily meals I cooked for him, brushed him, and gave him a lot of love. Sadly, Timmy passed away just two days after I moved to the Netherlands, and his absence left a big void in my heart. Since I’m not allowed to have pets in my current place, pet sitting feels like the perfect way to reconnect with that joy and share the same care I gave to him.

Although I haven’t worked professionally as a pet sitter before, I have experience taking care of Timmy and occasionally helped friends with their dogs as a favour. I’m responsible, attentive, and truly passionate about animals, specially dogs. Personally, I also have a background in the military, where I served in NATO missions, and later earned a degree in Tourism to pursue a career in the hotel industry.

I welcome vaccinated pets into my care, and I’m here to offer them affection, fun, and a safe environment—just like I would with my own. Pet sitting isn't just a side job for me; it's a way to feel whole again and bring more wagging tails into my life.
