A loving home for your fur baby!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Alissa and I have had dogs since i was 11 years old! My first dog was a high energy Nove Scotia Duck tolling retriever cross, and now I have a 3 year old beautiful Border collie cross at my home in the Netherlands. Her name is Flix she is spayed and has all of her shots up to date and is really my baby:) We go on at least 3 walks per day and we do agility training once a week and I go for a jog in the dog park every morning and Flix comes with me! She is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play but also knows how to calm down and snuggle when it is the time. I am Canadian and also my husband is Dutch if you are wondering why we live in Gouda lol. We bought our home here 2 years ago. We also have an adorable fluffy cat named Lommel who loves dogs and also thinks she is a dog. She also gets along very well with other cats, we leave her at a friends house when we go on vacation to Canada and our friend said she is the most chill cat ever and I think she knows well cause she has 5 other cats! I wanted to get another puppy because I absolutely LOVED Flixies puppy stage but my husband won’t let me haha, but I suggested maybe I could walk or pet sit other peoples dogs and he said that is a great idea. I have plenty of puppy experience and I love to potty train them and also teach new tricks! Whatever your dog or cats needs are I am more than happy to cater to; we love to spoil our babies and I can cook chicken with brown rice and vegetables also for your dog because that is Flixies favourite meal! If you have a young dog that loves to be outdoors and run a lot that is perfect for us but also if you have an older dog I am happy to take them on a chill walk to not over exert themselves too. My first dog lived til 16 years old and had diabetes in her later years and was blind so I am experienced with elder dogs and can also give insulin shots. If your dog is crate trained they can stay in their crate if you like but they are welcome to have a dog bed in the bedroom or living room or even squish onto the bed if there is room:) We have a full bin of dog toys and a cupboard full of bones and hond snoopjes! Looking forward to welcoming your fur baby into our home!

Alissa and Daniel were amazing! They looked after our sweet fur-baby for 5 days and gave him so much love while we were away. Alissa was very warm and friendly and arranged a meeting to be introduced to our cat and to get to know him before we left. She was very thorough, asking questions we hadn't thought of so that she knew everything she needed about him. The communication was 5 stars! This made the whole experience an absolute breeze as we always received updates on how Gandalf was doing, got photos along the way and knew he was in great care :) All round 5 star care and Gandalf is so happy and still purring so we know we made the right choice :)

Joep had a great time at Alissa! She sent me multiple videos everyday to let me know how he was doing. They went on big walks and she even took him swimming. Could not have wished for a better dog sitter! Can highly recommend!!

We booked with Alissa for the second time, and we were away for about 25 days for our annual leave. Alissa has taken very good care of our lovely cats, and she even brought a lot of food, snacks, and toys for them. We are super grateful for her kindness and professional care for our cats. We certainly highly recommend her as a top-rated cat sitter, and we will definitely come back to her if she is available to sit our cat for our next holiday.

Jacobo was treated to a few lovely days with Alissa and Daan and their furries - long walks by the canals and cuddles. Thank you for being so caring to an old pup. He's already missing you!
