Pet care experience
Looking to take purrfect care of your cat and dog!
Hi everyone! I'm Efi, originally from Greece, and I've been living in the Netherlands for about four years! Currently, I live with my partner (George) in Vleuten in a spacious house with a really nice yard/garden, where your dog can play and run carefree while being safe! Although we don't have a cat nor a dog of our own, our love for animals runs deep. We have been taking care of our friends’ cats and dogs on and off and for almost a year now we have been doing pet sitting. We truly love it and that is why we strive to offer you peace of mind and offer them a (holiday) home away from home. We have welcomed in our home all types of breeds from small poodles to Belgian Malinois to rescues so we have gained some experience regarding the characteristics of each breed. Our goal is to offer all the dogs the care, the physical and mental exercise that they need. We have a fenced park nearby which we visit to play fetch and do not worry if your dog is not a fan of the dog park we opt for a quieter place where he/she is safely leashed by a 15 meter long line which gives him/her enough freedom to play! In the house, we also give them puzzles, sniffing games and lickmats. Apart from dogs, we of course love taking care of cats by dropping by your home and spending time with them. We really enjoy their cuddles and purrs! A little bit about us, we are both active people who love to travel and can never resist the chance to pet any animal we meet along the way! Back in my village in Greece, I take care of the many stray cats and dogs , feeding and looking after them when they need extra care. We would love the opportunity to meet your furry friend and take care of them while you're away, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in good hands.

Superleuke, lieve mensen en Gep voelde zich voor een eerste keer al voor zijn doen enorm op zijn gemak! Ik ben blij dat hij een fijn adresje heeft gevonden.
I felt so confident leaving Rexy with Ethyima! He settled in very quickly and was well looked after. He’s already looking forward to his next stay :)
Efi looked after our dog for 4 days at her house and we couldn’t be happier! We scheduled a visit at her house so our dog can see his temporary home and also discuss our dog’s needs as he has hip problems. Efi was very understanding and caring towards Duke which was very comforting for us. She had also prepared a lick mat for Duke which made him instantly happy. Efi was very attentive and she was giving us updates about Duke and made us feel at ease. She also got him toys! Efi is super lovely and we would definitely recommend her 😊
Efi has become our to go sitter as our kitty loves her and we also trust her to come to our place when we are away. She was visiting our home twice a day to play and feed Leo. At the same time she was also caring for our house by taking care of our plants, the Mail and double checking that the kitty hadn’t had an accident in the house. We were getting daily updates , photos and videos which was very thoughtful and appreciated. We would definitely choose her again to look after Leo!
Efi has taken very good care of our little dog, Charlie. We are very happy with her services as she also keeps us updated of the well-being of Charlie, which makes us more comfortable leaving him with her. Totally recommend her!

Schedule
Even though I am working full time my schedule is pretty flexible and the majority of the time (3-4 days a week) I work from home. If I have to go to the office and we have a pet at home my partner stays at home so your pet is always supervised and is not neglected.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My partner and I are currently living in a spacious apartment and in December we will move to a bigger house with a fenced yard, where your dog will have more space to mingle around! We are very gentle with the pets and we do not mind letting them sit on the couch with us, unless you give us instructions that they are not allowed on furniture. Regarding visits at your house I can also water your plants, store your mail etc :)
A typical day
While I watch the dogs I always spend time playing with them either fetch or with pulling the rope. If I see that the dog is veeeery energetic I take them for an extra walk. I always try to offer some mental stimulation as well by giving the a lick mat with peanut butter and yogurt or teaching them new tricks or hiding treats around!
