Grace

I have over 25 years experience with taking care of pets. I have worked with numerous rescues and shelters and am also a dog trainer. I also do pet photography so I know how to really work with animals and read their body language.

I do this professionally as a registered business through the KVK.

I am experienced in dealing with all kinds of dogs and their behaviors. I am able to give medication and attend to the needs of senior or disabled dogs or cats. I work with both dogs and cats. My schedule is very flexible and I am available on short notice. I am willing to travel. I try to be very flexible because I know how much I love my dogs and how picky I am with the person who watches them, so I want to offer that same level of service that I expect. I gave a little description below but we can change it to meet your needs. I have plenty of references outside of Pawshake.

I don't mind if you want a security camera set up.

For cats- my day rate includes snuggles and cuddles- feeding, watering, and cleaning litter box. And I can administer medication at that time if they need it. You will get pictures of before and after feeding and watering. I also send pictures of your furbaby just being themselves. I text every visit. I'm also happy to send video if you would like.

For Dogs- Drop in visit is letting them out to potty, feed/water/meds/ some cuddles. Typically about a half hour-45 minute visit. If you want the dog walked during this time, then you also need to book dog walking and I will discount the combo for you. If there are multiple dogs- I do charge a little extra for the dog walking part of it per dog but not for the drop in visit. Pictures of everything will be provided the same as I do with the cats.

Dog walking- I will walk your dog on leash only for 30-45 minutes. I'm happy to provide the route we take in an app so you can see where I'm at. This does not include feeding/watering or any other service.

For Pet sitting overnight-

Pet sitting includes all services. Walking, feeding, medicine etc. and lots and lots of cuddles.

I will be with your pet full time other than going to the grocery store. I do not work another job and I'm not a student. This is my job. You will get multiple updates and pictures each day.

I know it's scary to leave your fur babies with someone else! I'm more than happy to provide whatever you need to make that a little easier! I send pictures every day before and after feeding and watering. I also send pictures of the furbaby just being themselves so that you can see that they are happy and relaxed. I will also send videos if you would like. I don't want to make people go over the data plan for the phone so I always ask first. I had to leave my furbabies with my daughter when I first moved here and was waiting for my visa to be approved and it killed me. I made her FaceTime me every day so I could talk to my dogs! So no request is too crazy for me. :)

I, unfortunately, can't take your dogs/cats at my house.
