Manuela

Hello! I am Manuela and I recently finished a master's degree in Filmmaking. I'm looking for a side gig while I find a job in Brussels. I'm an animal lover, with a soft spot for dogs. I miss my doggie siblings Eva and Uma terribly, but I know they are living their best dog life back in Ecuador 😎🐶

I have experience taking care of puppies, adults and old dogs. I can administer oral and topical medicine as well as practice basic training. I offer house visits service for short periods (either morning, afternoon or night, for 30 minutes up to 3 hours) and home-sitting for 24 hours. I can also do whole weekends or in between the week depending on my availability. I prefer house sitting to hosting because I live with house mates.

I have previous experience pet sitting for friends and family and throughout different moments in my life, I have volunteered at animal shelters and foundations. I also have experience with rescued/reactive dogs.

In addition, I offer pet walking services: group dog walks (2-4 dogs) so your buddy can socialize, or if you don't think it's a fit, to walk your dog/cat/etc. alone. Walks can last from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the pet's necessities. We can go to dog parks to play and exercise or follow the walking route you have established already. Either way, we'll have a great time!

I'm a very organized and thorough person, so don't hesitate to let me know any special or specific needs you or your pet (or house) might need from me. I have less experience with other animals like cats, bunnies and hamsters, but I love them all and I'm willing to learn! I can speak Spanish and English perfectly, I have a basic understanding of French and I'm picking a word or two of Dutch. I'd be happy to practice either language with you and your pet.

P.S. I put a photo of my grandpa and his dogs because I know loving pets runs in my veins!
