TopNotch Pet-Sitter For a TopDog
Pet care experience
Hi there pet-parents! My name is Mieke and I am a health coach currently doing my Masters's degree in Mental Health and Counseling (online). Two years ago, I moved from Manhattan to beautiful, Stamford, Connecticut. We live in a stunning, well-kept, brand-new, pet-friendly building with a dog spa and amazing parks everywhere to be found. Often as pet-parents, we feel guilty if we have to leave our beloved pets behind when we go on vacation, but you have our word that we will make sure that they are having a wonderful time being at their home away from home. I am here to ease your mind and I am available to care for your pets on all weekends (daycare and overnight stay) as well as on Mondays and Fridays. I have been passionate about animals since a very young age, and my love for animals has grown more and more over the years. I grew up with two cats and over the years ten amazing dogs – all who have contributed in a positive way to the person I am today. All of our pets were always extremely well taken care of and treated like our children and as an important part of our family. I grew up with three English Bulldogs (Dolly Dee, Douglas and Choppie), one Chow Chow named Bobby, one Shar-Pei named Gunther, two Terriers (Olga and Otto), one Chihuahua named Alfie ,and one Miniature Pinscher (Michael) – This is evidence that I have knowledge of various different types of dogs and how to care for them. I am also proud to say that I have worked together with our neighborhood vets to help tame and neuter stray cats after which we would help find them forever homes. I am sure that I am able to provide the same amount of love and care for any other pet as I do for my own. My comprehension of the needs of pets, especially those of dogs and cats is outstanding – from feeding them food with the right nutrients to walking them, I know it all. Moreover, I possess knowledge of how to take care of old pets and pets that are sick, therefore, would be able to effectively manage their appointments with the vet and administer their medication. And to make you feel more at ease, there are 15 vets within a 1 mile radius of my house, meaning, that in case of a medical emergency, you have the guarantee that your pet will be able to get to a vet within minutes. My most common pet services include: feeding, supplying treats, stimulating pets through mental games and physical activity, and providing grooming services, such as brushing and bathing (we have a pet spa in our building so if you would like your sweetie to come home smelling like a sweetie, check out my rates for grooming. And, then, of course, we can throw in a pajama party stay over too. If you have a pet that you consider to be super special and cool (that's all pets to me), I will be able to tailor to your specific needs. If said pet likes to do more adventurous walkies and is more energetic, I will find a way to make it more fun... perhaps a trail walk instead of the normal street walk then. I hope you will consider choosing me as your host. You have my word that I will go above and beyond to make your pet's stay the most comfortable and best experience for them. Because our pets deserve vacations, too. I promise that I will love and care for them like they are my own. P.S I have excellent references from pet-parents who have trusted me to take care of their "kids" and they were very happy. I am more than willing to provide these if requested.
Reviews
Mieke is a very trustworthy Dog Vacay host that you don't want to hesitate reaching out to for her service. With a flexible schedule around her lifestyle, she manages to create opportunities for our dog, Parker, to come for a visit while my boyfriend and I are away (even sometimes on short notice). At first, finding a host that was suitable for Parker was difficult as there was never a good match. Mieke, on the other hand, is the perfect fit for ANY dog, and she goes above and beyond with him. Now Parker knows when we've arrived at her apartment, and we couldn't be happier or more comfortable with who he's staying with. We look forward to doing business with her again, and you should, too.
Mieke is Pawsome! :-) She is very responsive and flexible, and so easy to work with! Gracie loves hanging out with Mieke and we've gotten fantastic pictures to keep us updated. In addition to lots of play time inside, she's gotten lots of walks now that it's getting nice outside again, which she loves. Highly recommend Mieke for all of your dog sitting needs!
Mieke was a great sitter for my 4 year old Cavachon Noodle. She gave daily updates and Noodle always seemed really happy. I know she is in good hands. I would definitely use her services again.
very friendly and open. pleasure to meet her and leave my puppy to her for care
