Olivia

Hey there! :)

My name is Olivia and I'm a 24-year-old master's student here in Rotterdam. As my studies only consist of the occasional course meeting here and there, I have lots of free time and am therefore looking for a job to keep me busy - and what better job than spending my days with our furry little friends?

I have always been a huge friend of any type of animal and have been surrounded by them since I was a little kid. I grew up with guinea pigs, mice, cats, and fish and learned how to take care of them at a very young age. I especially love cats and have the honour of owning one with my housemates. She has taken up a big portion of my heart (and also about 70% of my camera roll). But I love dogs too!! I always look forward to hanging out with my sister's and mother's dogs, giving them lots of cuddles, and going on walks. Currently, I also have had the pleasure of hanging out with a lovebird every now and then, who has the sweetest personality (if not a very loud one).

I am no stranger to house-sitting and taking care of pets of friends, family, and neighbours when needed.

Here are a few things you can expect from me if you choose me as a caregiver for your beloved pet:

- In the case of house sitting, I will send daily updates and pictures to assure you that there is nothing to worry about and we are having a great time together. I can also take care of your plants and other things.

- As I am a huge animal lover, I will make sure to give your pet exactly what it needs through cuddles, love, and undivided attention or (if that's not what they like) through space and understanding. Additionally, I will put in lots of playtime and take care of any food requirements they may have.

- I love going for walks! So in the case of dog walking, I do not mind going on long walks with your dog if this is something you/they want. I am also always available for short outings.

- If you want me to visit your home to check in on your pet, I will spend lots of time with them, where I will socialize with them, feed them, change their water bowl, and clean any form of litter. I can do this up to three times a day (depending on the location).

- I am a patient, caring, and reliable person and I will make sure to exactly follow the instructions given to me, to make this a pleasant experience for everyone involved.

- I am very flexible and will (most likely) be able to take last-minute requests.

I hope to meet your furry best friend soon and become a close friend myself! Or maybe their new favourite auntie?
