Hi! I’m Alena, I’m 30 and have been living in the Netherlands for the past 10 years. I’ve always absolutely loved animals and grew up surrounded by them (cats, dogs, guinea pigs, fish, turtles… even a rabbit at one point). Caring for animals has always been second nature to me. These days I live in the Hague with my sweet rescue cat, who I absolutely adore, she means the world to me. In my spare time I build her toys and playgrounds, and I’m always coming up with new ways to keep her happy and engaged (through puzzles, exercise, teaching her tricks, and lots of cuddles). I guess you could say I’m a bit obsessed... but I really do believe all animals deserve all the love, care, and a life full of enrichment and cuddles. :) Over the years, even before joining this platform, I’ve looked after many cats and dogs (of all ages) for friends and people in my community, and it brought me a lot of joy to share my love with so many animals. Now that I have more time, I’d love to offer that care to others too! If I’m looking after your pet, you can always expect daily updates and photos (I know how much it means to see that your furry family member is doing well while you're away). I’m flexible with availability, happy to meet beforehand, and I’ll care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own. Overview of what I offer: - Home visits + house sits (feed and give fresh water to your pet based on their routine, clean litter boxes, engage them both in mind and body through play and exercise, water your plants if requested, and spend some quality time with your pet making them feel loved and pampered - I want them to get the best treatment while you're away). - Walks (I will make sure your pet has a fun and fulfilling walk catered to their personal needs and routines) - Regardless of service, I provide lots of written and photographic updates, and would love to know what your pet's personality and individual preferences are so that I can tailor everything to their unique needs. Really looking forward to meeting you and your lovely pet! :) Please note: the prices listed on my profile reflect first-time bookings, and are therefore at a discounted rate. My services are tailored to your pet's (and your) individual needs, and we can discuss the pricing to reflect that together. Please also note that the prices listed are based on the care of one pet, additonal pets incur a surcharge of 5eur/pet/visit.
