Hiii
Originally from New York City, my name is Kwen and I have a wealth of experience with animals. In NYC I worked at a dog daycare caring for up to 40+ dogs at once (but on my favorite days, there were only 10.) After a couple of years cuddling dogs and a few cats there, I became a full time dog walker for an independant business and started my own business here in Bruxelles.
I have since realized I don't like paperwork, so pawshake it is!
Working face to face with clients helped me learn the best way to care for pets and to adapt my clients needs. I also am more than excited to work with cats and other animals (see below), but my speciality lies with dogs.
AVAILABILITY
I have a day job at the moment, I'm usually working from 9 to 17h or from 13h30 to 21h30.
I will try to keep my availability updated as my work schedule rolls out.
Expérience
In my career, I've worked with:
- puppies (Such sharp teeth)
- older dogs who require a gentle walk,
- sick and injured animals
- pets with behavioral issues (human/dog agressive, ADHD, etc).
I am capable of training basic commands and teaching different forms of play. I can handle large and small dogs, with no price difference for size, and I am capable of preventing/de-escalating any potential fights instigated by any socially aggressive animals.
I am happy to walk dogs solo or in a group for 30 mins or, for a slightly higher price, one hour.
I can deliver medication to dogs orally with treats or, if absolutely necessary, hand to mouth.
CATS & OTHERS
I love cats! My favorites are the needy ones but even if they're asocial, I'm happy to take a photo and talk to them while I pour kibble and leave.
Typically I stay at the home for at least 30mins caring for the cats, playing with them, cleaning any messes I notice or just existing in their space long enough to be sure that nothing is amiss. I have little to no experience giving medicine to cats aside from adding powder in food and that hairball paste that's usually a 50/50 in terms of taste.
Recently I gained the chance to care for a small farm of chickens, bunnies, and guinea pigs. I love to take on new challenges, so if you dont see your pet in my page, reach out to me anyway. Chances are I'll *professionally* squeal with joy at the prospect of learning something new.
Also, I love taking weird photos whether it's by posing something on your pets head. Don't get me started on the captions 😂 I think I'm very punny
Thanks for reading and I hope to hear from you soon!
