My name is Francesca, 24, I come from a small farm town in Chile and moved to Brussels a couple years ago to study in university. 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.
