Bonjour, Hoi!

I'm a 33-years-old French-Dutch living in Amsterdam, and working as a copywriter and translator. In my free time, I enjoy writing, reading, running, singing or taking theater classes. I live in Stadionbuurt, close to a lot of parks (including the greenest area of Amsterdam: the Amsterdamse Bos), which makes it a perfect location to walk outside with a dog!

I recently was a pet-sitter for the first times (with Floyd and Dhalia, who you can see on most of the pictures) and I loved it :). I visited and walked Floyd, and house/pet-sat Dhalia. I’m convinced that it benefits to everyone: calms the animal, reassures the owner and sends positive vibes to the pet-sitter (especially if the pet-sitter is, alas, not allowed to have pets in her apartment).

It's hard for me to choose between #teamdog or #teamcat though, because of the adorable cat you can see in another picture, Ramos. Back when I was working in a library, we rescued him with my colleagues and helped him get adopted by a lovely family. I also grew up with a labrador, Kiara, who I miss very much (definitely #teamlabrador, by the way), and two guinea pigs. I love animals and also volunteer at the WWF (but I have not pet-sat a panda... yet).

Be assured that if you contact me, your dog or cat (or panda) will be cuddled and well-cared-for. I provide visits at your place (around 30 minutes, during which I offer to feed and cuddle your dog or cat or rabbit or guinea pig), walks (usually around 30 minutes, depending of course on the needs of the dog) and house-sitting. I'm currently working mostly from home, and I have a flexible schedule (I generally finish work at 15:30).

Cheers, Claire
