About Milena & Xander

✅ Who are we: Milena is from Brazil and works in the HR field. Xander is from Antwerp and studies bioquimistry. We were both raised with pets and love their company.

✅ Why are we in Pawshake: (Milena) back in my country I have my own little dog and since I'm a kid I love taking care of animals. Now my dog is also taking care of my parents for me back home and I hope I can give it back by helping other people to take care of their pets since I know how important they are for us and our families ❤️ Xander has been always interested in pet training (clicker) since he got Jojo (our bird) and loves to figure out how to connect with them. With a lot of home office time we enjoy having extra cute companies with us!

✅ Our experience: We have experience with dogs 🐶 , cats 🐱 and birds 🐦. We are very caring and knowledgeable, with experience in taking care of animals from only making company to giving medications when needed. If you have different pets we are open to take care of them as well. We have first aid experience too and a vet clinic next to our apartment.

✅ Our services: We offer the services of pet sitter, pet walking (standard 30' duration) and visits to feed and spend time with your pet (standard 60' duration)🤩 We can keep your pet at our ground floor apartment with a big garden or stay with them at your place as well. We can check on them 2x per day, however you prefer. If we are pet setting yours we won't plan any trip, party or event (your pet will be our number 1 priority). We are available 24h in WhatsApp or phone and can send you pictures, videos or video call anytime. Xander can run with your dog so if you have special leash just bring it, same for training snacks. We currently don't take cats because of our bird Jojo but we can def go for house visits. Only Xander walks dogs over 12kgs.

✅ Our location & amenities: We live in Wilrijk, Antwerp. Our apartment is in the ground floor with a big garden. The pet has access to all areas of the apartment and we love animals. We have a small parrot, very calm and introverted. We are always extra careful and keep them in separate places.

✅ Important info: We prefer to receive castrated or sterilized dogs. If your pet is trained that's even better. Our neighbors don't like barks and can complain so if your pet is loud please let us know. We are not able to accept big dogs considering the size of our apartment. Also, check in time is 9am or later (can be negotiated) and check out time is 5pm/6pm for dog day care and 9am/10am for dog boarding. If needed after that, for day care we charge an extra fee of 5 euros and if it's dog boarding we charge a day care (20 euros, in order to keep availability).

Ps: Please contact us to confirm availability and let's arrange to meet you and your pet 😊✨

‼️We do not accept bookings without a first meeting to get to know you and your pet‼️

‼️Specially for new clients, a first meeting is not a confirmation, you have to book in the app immediately to confirm and keep availability‼️

We’re glad this nice couple agreed to care for our dogs even though our dogs are first timers staying with a Petsitter. We’re even happier when we’re assured that our babies are in good loving hands after seeing photos of their stay. We especially like the location of their residence which is quiet & safe for doggy walks without too much traffic nearby. Many thanks & till next month.

Mijn corgi Ficus werd bij Milena & Xander grandioos in de watten gelegd, en ik kon niet geruster zijn tijdens mijn afwezigheid!

Het eerste contact was meteen een hit, en Milena & Xander hebben een absoluut hart voor dieren!

Ik kreeg dagelijks meerdere updates, foto’s en filmpjes, en mijn furry baby heeft absoluut geen seconde heimwee of verdriet gehad.

Als je een liefdevolle en betrouwbare oppas zoekt zit je helemaal goed bij Xander & Milena! 😃♥️
