Hi dear pet mom/dad,

I'm Rebecca, 30 years old, and I live in a quiet yet central neighbourhood in Rotterdam. I recently signed up as a pet sitter here because, frankly, it's what I've always been. I just spent the first two months of my life without any pet at all, and I miss that companionship and bond dearly - so here I am!

I grew up in a rural area surrounded by dogs, cats, chickens, and even donkeys right in my backyard, which helped me connect with animals on a deeper level from a very young age. Over the past 30 years, I've had two dogs, three cats, and five guinea pigs of my own. Now that I live in the city, I’ve become the go-to person for my neighbourhood, friends, and even friends of friends. But since I no longer have a pet myself, I’m more than happy to take care of yours :)

I’m very experienced with disabled or traumatised animals (especially deafness and anxiety disorders) and have worked closely with a pet psychologist for years. I know how to apply common practices to help any dog or cat feel at ease. I also work from home (with just one office day), which allows me to check on your furry friend almost every day. The best part? I live close to the dog park on Noordereiland, so your little one will always come home happy and tired. 

I’m also experienced with exotic animals and insects, so feel free to drop off your snake, scorpion, or whatever else you’ve got!

And last but not least, I can make sure your pet understands commands in Dutch, English, and German :)
