My name is Francesca, 23, I come from a small farm town in Chile and moved to Brussels a couple years ago, I currently study Social Sciences at the VUB. I speak English and Spanish fluently and am currently taking Dutch courses.
Please ignore the average response time on my profile I am currently available and will respond asap:)
I used to have all types of pets back at home, dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens,goats, horses and turtles. I get along very well with animals and enjoy playing With them and caring for them, I also have experience training dogs with professionals and on my own. I can take care of almost any animal, and I am a fast learner.
I have done plenty of dog walking around brussels and I know almost all of the nice parks, including where they can be set free.
I also have experience dog boarding (long and short periods) as well as house sitting (for long and short periods). I have been doing it consistently for almost 5 years now.
I now own an almost two year old chihuahua, she is very sweet and playful. If I house sit I can take her as well as leave her home, however is most convenient.
SERVICES: information
The walks depend on the size and needs of the dog, but the average would be one hour.
I am a student so I am usually home all day to the exception of times I have doctor appointments which last max 3 hours. Your pet will never be alone since I have roommates, so in case something is needed when I am out it will be managed immediately (only whom I trust completely, And this wouldn’t be a recurring occurrence, only in urgent cases).
In the case of house sitting or dog boarding I dedicate my full time to the pet and do not make plans etc to ensure I am there once booked.
I currently am staying in an apartment in ixelles, I can take dogs of all sizes.
The home visit hours and amount of time are completely flexible to what your pet needs.
Having been a pet owner for many years I understand the trust that goes into leaving your loved one in the hands of someone else, maybe thinking they won't be as attentive as you, etc. I can assure you, when I am caring for someone else's pet, i treat them like my own and take everything into consideration.
I enjoy taking care of animals very much, so it is a job I enjoy as well as take very seriously, as the well-being of your pet is in my hands. I always send updates if I notice anything unusual. I want to make sure your pet is happy and safe, that is my top priority.

Leaving my 3-paw friend with Francesca is a huge relief. She is very sweet, kind and caring, also very experienced and knowledgeable. My sweet boy came back so happy and has been running excitedly more often ever since. I'm so glad he enjoyed and I will certainly come back! Definitely recommend!
Francesca was a wonderful pet sitter. She sent us daily pictures and videos. Our dog was happy which makes me happy
