I work 50% (part-time) as a freelancer, which gives me excellent flexibility for pet care. I've made caring for animals a regular part of my routine – I look after dogs every day, whether it's for walks, visits, or longer stays. Pet sitting is more than a side job for me; it's something I genuinely enjoy and have built into my weekly schedule. My part-time work arrangement means I can be flexible with timing and availability, ensuring your pet gets consistent, quality care when you need it. Whether it's morning walks, midday check-ins, or full-day care, I can adapt to your pet's routine and your schedule. I'm reliable, organized, and always make sure the animals in my care get the attention and exercise they need.

Safety, trust & environment

In your home: When caring for pets in their own environment, I follow your routines and instructions carefully to keep everything familiar and stress-free. I ensure doors and gates are securely closed, keep hazardous items out of reach, and maintain a clean, safe space. I stay attentive to your pet's behavior and any special needs they may have. In my home: My home is pet-friendly and secure, with a safe space for dogs to relax and play. I keep the environment clean and free of hazards, and I'm always mindful of each pet's comfort level. If caring for multiple pets, I introduce them gradually and supervise interactions to ensure everyone gets along.

Trained Service Dogs, Now Caring for Yours

Pet care experience

When I was a teenager, I have been training service dogs for Handi'chiens – my mum was was a member of the association and we got one puppy to take care at home and to train, and we'd care of him for 1.5 years, teaching him skills to assist people with disabilities. This taught me patience, consistency, and how to work with dogs through repetition and positive reinforcement. We also hosted short-term dogs (1/2/3-week(s) stays) when their hosting family was on holidays or also to have a rotation and to help the dogs socialize with different people and environments. Since then, I've regularly cared for pets of relatives and friends, and it's always been a joy. What sets me apart? Training experience: I know how to teach and reinforce commands, handle behavioral needs, and work patiently with dogs of all temperaments Adaptability: From puppies to senior dogs, short visits to extended stays – I'm comfortable with various care situations Genuine love for animals: I don't just watch pets; I engage with them, understand their needs, and make sure they feel safe and loved Pet sitting has never felt like work to me – it's always been smooth and natural because I truly care about the animals in my charge.

Théo took wonderful care of our dog, Kenya, for 3.5 days in our home. She can be a bit dramatic at times, but she absolutely loved him. When we returned, she was calm, happy, and clearly had not been anxious or stressed at all. He followed her schedule closely, took her on long walks, brought her along to restaurants, and truly treated her like a member of his own family. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. We would not hesitate to contact Théo again—highly recommended!

Théo ist ein sehr liebevoller und verantwortungsbewusster Katzen- und Hundesitter, den ich auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen würde! Er hatte sofort eine gute Verbindung zu meinem Hund und hat ihn super betreut während meiner Abwesenheit.
