Your fur babies deserve the best care!

Pet care experience

From a young age, I have been deeply connected to animals it was for them that I became a vegetarian when I was 10 years old. Starting with the many cats i adopted as a child and and with my childhood and adolescent years spent caring for my beloved husky named Astro. Astro wasn’t just a pet, he was a cherished member of our family. His energetic personality and independent spirit taught me valuable lessons in patience, responsibility, and empathy. Despite his stubbornness and occasional mischief Astro taught me the language of dog love through training, positive reinforcement and a lot of patience. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have also provided pet sitting for my sister’s two beautiful dogs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding or simply providing companionship, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every animal under my care. Despite my love for animals, my nomadic lifestyle over the past five years has prevented me from having my own pet. However, now that I am permanently located in Amsterdam, I am thrilled to finally have the opportunity to form meaningful connections with animals through pet care services. Furthermore, my passion for animals extends beyond just caregiving. As an animal painter and ceramic sculptor specializing in animal subjects, I immerse myself in capturing the essence and beauty of our furry friends through my artwork. Overall l, my combination of hands-on experience, compassion and unwavering dedication to animal welfare makes me a trusted and reliable choice for pet care. With me, pet owners can rest assured that their beloved companions will receive the highest level of care and attention, just like family

Zoek je iemand die je poezen behandelt alsof het koninklijke hoogheden zijn terwijl jij lekker op vakantie bent? Zoek niet verder, Silvina is je vrouw! Wij lieten onze twee diva's poezen bij haar achter toen we met het gezin op vakantie gingen, en het was alsof ze hun eigen mini-vakantie hadden. Silvina heeft niet alleen voor hen gezorgd, maar ze heeft ze ook echt verwend - ik zou bijna jaloers worden! En over verantwoordelijk gesproken, Silvina is zo betrouwbaar dat ik haar zou vertrouwen met de gouden sleutel van de stad als ik die had. We kwamen thuis bij een huis dat zo netjes was, ik begon me af te vragen of we wel aan het juiste adres waren. Met Silvina kun je gerust op reis gaan, wetende dat je poezen en je huis in superveilige handen zijn. Kortom, als je iemand zoekt die je kat behandelt alsof het haar eigen pluizige kind is, terwijl ze ook nog eens je huis bewaakt als een persoonlijke fortbewaker, dan is Silvina je go-to!

Silvina has taken care of my three cats and has done such an amazing job each time she has tended for them. She’s just a natural animal lover and I immediately felt at ease leaving my fur babies under her care and she did not disappoint me, she expertly covered all their needs from the typical things (feeding them, litter box etc) to also give them love and care while I was gone. I simply cannot recommend Silvina enough as a pet sitter!!!! Thank you so much Silvina for all your energy dedicated to my babies!

Silvina is definitely an animal lover and I would definitely recommend her. Not only is she amazingly loving and caring, but also super organized. She sent us updates throughout the 2 week trip we made. She is thoughtful and attentive to detail. My 12-year old doggy Foncho, has to take medication and she would always let me know daily after she had done so. I would definitely trust my beloved dog to her again. Foncho loves her!

Silvina is the light that came to our house. our complicated shy cat doesn't tolerate strangers, so we had to testrun the meetings with Sneeuw before we left for our month long trip. Sneeuw immediately felt comfortable, and even came to meet her. Normally she disappears when there are strangers. On our trip Silvina sent us updates and she was super flexible and went out of her way to even get better for for Sneeuw. I would highly recommend her. Apart from being a total animal lover she is super well organised and reliable. I would highly recommend her

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, which is located in the vibrant neighborhood of Amsterdam Oost on Javastraat, I ensure that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and secure. My apartment is situated in a friendly and welcoming community with accommodating neighbors, providing an additional layer of safety and support for the pets under my care. One of the key features of my home is the fenced balcony facing South, which offers a safe and secure outdoor space for pets to enjoy fresh air and sunlight. This allows dogs to have additional sensory stimulation and relaxation while remaining safely contained within the confines of the balcony. Additionally, I provide regular potty breaks and walks to nearby parks, such as Oosterpark and Flevopark, where pets can explore, exercise, and socialize with control. In the client's home, I prioritize establishing trust and rapport with both the pets and their owners. I adhere to any specific instructions or guidelines provided by the clients regarding the care of their pets, ensuring consistency and reliability in my caregiving approach. I maintain open and attentive communication with clients throughout the pet-sitting period, providing updates, photos, and reassurance to alleviate any concerns they may have. Creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets involves not only physical aspects but also emotional well-being. I pay close attention to the individual needs and preferences of each pet, providing personalized care and attention to ensure they feel loved, valued, and secure. Whether it's maintaining a familiar routine, offering comforting cuddles, or engaging in interactive play, I strive to create a nurturing and supportive environment where pets can thrive and flourish. Overall, safety, trust, and environment are foundational principles that guide my pet care practices. Whether in my own home or the client's home, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every pet, providing them with the love, care, and attention they deserve.

Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily and weekly routine, especially since I am currently working from home. With my flexible schedule, I have ample time to dedicate to the well-being and happiness of your furry companions. While pets are under my care I engage in various activities such as walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions to ensure they receive the physical exercise and affection they need to thrive. In addition to interactive play and exercise, I also allocate time for essential tasks such as feeding and administering any necessary medications. Maintaining a consistent feeding schedule and attention ensures that your pets remain healthy, comfortable, and happy throughout their stay with me. Since I am working from home, I have the flexibility to supervise and monitor your pets closely throughout the day, offering them companionship and reassurance whenever needed. Whether it's a quick potty break, a midday snuggle session, or just keeping them company while they nap, I am fully present and attentive to their needs at all times. Furthermore, my availability for pet boarding is nearly full-time, with the ability to accommodate your pets every day of the week. This means that they will receive round-the-clock care and attention, giving you peace of mind knowing that they are in loving and capable hands while you're away. Overall, pet care is not just a responsibility for me; it's a joyful and rewarding part of my daily routine. I cherish the opportunity to bond with your pets, provide them with the love and care they deserve, and ensure that they feel safe, comfortable, and cherished throughout their stay with me.
