Evgeniia

Hello everyone! Thanks for visiting my profile. 

My name is Evgenia but friends call me Jane. I am 32 y.o., currently live in Rotterdam with my husband and son. I speak English, Russian, Italian. As long as I remember myself I had been loving any pets (dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters) no breeds or size preferencies. I was taking care of lots of pets in my childhood, but it was like a hobby. I've always dreamed about having dog or cat in my own place, we couldn't afford it before due to movings, but when my son was 2 and asked about having a dog, I've realised that I need to make not only my dream but also my son's dream come true. 

Before actually taking a dog I started my journey in understanding dogs' psychology, how to create a special bond with your pet, what to do in order to make them understand you. I spent lots of time reading. consulting with professional dog trainers.

Only after I was ready to have my dog Butch (American Bully, standard size) and continue my way of understanding animals with him. My boy is only 2,5 y.o. but we’ve made a long way of trainings and understanding each other. We’ve learned the recall and other commands also how not to pull the leash and follow me even without, and unfortunately we were attacked by a reactive dog, so we needed to go and work through his trauma as well. Meanwhile I’ve learned a lot about reactivity and how to reduce it, moreover how to react if you are under attack of the reactive dog. 

I am happy to share my knowledge and experience and look after your pets providing best care for them and be most helpful and supportive for you as a pet's owners, since I also understand how stressful it can be to leave you beloved pet with other person. 

More about my services:

– Dog boarding. As you could see above I have a dog at home, he is very calm, obedient, trained dog with strong personality and he doesn't like to be challenged by dominant male. Before boarding I always ask to meet in person with dogs at park so, firstly, I can greet your dog (mine will be waiting nearby, he is trained for that) and you can see my approach with dogs, build a trust and antroduce dogs. For me it's important to show dogs that they need to listen and respect me not just do whatever they want. After I ask also to come to my apartment to see how dogs will be together in closed space because sometimes outside and actually inside home dogs behavior can be different. I provide constant supervision (even if I am not at home, I have video camera in the room so I can check on your dog, of course when I leave home dogs stay in different separated rooms). Moreover, I never go out together with two dogs because as for me walking with dog is a process wjen I can train dog,play with dog and also fill the need of the breed as running or serving. I am sending photo/video report few times during the day + online call if you want is also possible))

– Home visit. I am currently not working since I look after my son (droping him off at school and picking him up after), other time I am at home, so I can happily look after your pet: come to your place and visit your pets. During the working days and weekends also. 

My visit usually last around 1 hour, sometimes longer depends on the behaviour of the cat. My approach with cats is to give them time, respect their borders and wait when they come out of curiosity to say “hello” and then I give them treats to create a positive bond between us. 

During home visit I provide services which are required from pet owner (instructions). I fed pets, play with them, clean their toilet or crate, sending video and photos to you (also video calls if it's needed). I am also ready to help with your plants, mail, deliveries, dishes or check the robot vacuum cleaner. Don’t worry if something happened I also wash floor and clean everything.

In the end of the visit I send detailed report of how your pet is doing,videos and photos.

 – Dog walking. Since I am a dog owner myself, I know what is needed during the walking and also I am not afraid of being durty due to activitives with dogs :) . I provide activites (runing, jumpimg), playing witt toys and treats (approved by dog owner) and few min of trainings. I have very long leash (5 m) for dog, so your pet on one hand will be constantly on the leash, on the other hand will get freedom during walks what is needed for dogs.
