Nelly

Hello, dear Pawshake community,

My name is Nelly and I am an expat living in Dusseldorf. I am working from home as a content writer and editor for online magazines and manage my own working schedule so I have plenty of time for pet and home sitting.
I am a huge animal lover and a vegetarian, and I had some amazing cats and dogs in my house since birth.
Since I became a remote worker, I have been doing a lot of pet sitting for both cats and dogs around the Netherlands and Germany. Unfortunately due to my travels, I cannot have a pet myself, so this is a great opportunity to spend time with some lovely animals! I love both dogs and cats (although cats are my favorite) so I will gladly watch both. I believe that life is so much nicer when there is a pet in it :)
In terms of services, I walk dogs anywhere between 30 min to 1 hour, whichever will be agreed upon. I'm okay with dogs of any size and breed.
I pet sit at the owner's home, either as a day visit or a stayover or at my apartment. Occasionally, I can also pet sit in other towns (with a public transportation contribution).

If I am taking care of your pet I will give regular updates and send multiple photos of your pet, so that you know your pet is well cared for and happy. I will stay for 40-60 minutes per visit, or even longer if needed.
I'm happy to help with plants, mail, packages, opening the door for cleaners or handymen, etc.

Due to my schedule, I only accept requests that are not more than 1 month in advance. Last-minute requests are very welcome! :)

* When sending a request, please state your address in cases of day visits, dog walking, etc (so I could check the commute), and in cases of boarding and daycare - please specify the exact times of drop-off and pick-up.
* 20% discount applies for house sitting and boarding of cats
* Standby would be considered a regular booking
* Please be aware of the cancelation policy
* Prices may vary when there is a special service needed that isn't listed on the website - such as "babysitting" dogs at the owners' house or extended doggy daycare
* Doggy daycare is 7 hours
* Boarding is 24 hours
* Boarding - I prefer pets that are mature, don't damage furniture or belongings, and do not require 24/7 care so I could maintain my regular everyday schedule. In any other case, there will be additional costs

If you have any kind questions, please feel free to contact me :)
