I’ve loved dogs since childhood, when my family had a Golden Retriever. Since then, I’ve gained experience caring for dogs of different breeds and sizes, including my sister’s Water Dog and Retriever mix, an Akita, and dogs belonging to friends and family. I work full-time during the week, so I mainly offer dog sitting and walks at weekends, when I have more time to give dogs the attention and care they deserve. I live alone in a cosy 60 m² apartment on the third floor of a building with a lift, in a quiet residential area of Nordend, ideal for lovely walks. When looking after a dog, I enjoy going for regular walks, usually around 30–60 minutes depending on the dog’s age, energy level and needs. I make sure they have plenty of attention, playtime and rest, while following their usual feeding and walking routines as closely as possible. Before any stay, I’d be happy to chat about your dog’s usual routine, habits, likes and dislikes, so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible. It would be great if you could bring their essentials, such as their bed, a favourite blanket or toy, and something familiar that smells like home. I’d also ask for their pet passport and vet’s contact details, just in case of an emergency. Above all, I’d love to make sure your dog feels safe, happy and at home while you’re away!
