About Minerva

Hi there!

I am Minerva, I am Spanish and this is my first year in Maastricht. Before coming to Maastricht, I studied Biology in Salamanca (Spain) and Leuven (Belgium). During my bachelors (4 years) I worked as a petsitter. I took care of dogs and cats very often but I had a very special little dog which I worked with for 3 entire years and we would see each other almost everyday! His name is Pirata🐶 and he is living his happy life in Salamanca still. I am more that convinced to continue working in what I like to do, being in contact with animals and taking care of them. What I do normally is playing with them as much as possible, pet them, and trying to teach them some tricks if they don't know already. With Pirata, I would walk for hours because he had a lot of energy and we would play with his ball⚽. I also spent some time with other dogs, older, younger, big, small, I don't care! I adapt to the necessities of each dog and circumstance. Just let me know!

If they need daycare I would make it work for being with them as much as possible. Fortunately, I have the help of my boyfriend which would be at home if I have class, but my schedule is pretty flexible so most of the time it will be me who is with your little friend.

Here , I don't have other pets but I do have 3 cats in my house in Spain which I love with all my heart. So cats are more than welcome as well😻. I also have a hamster🐹 called Tortilla, in Spain, so any other animal is welcome too.

I also have experience helping the animal shelter in my hometown, where I worked for some time. My motivation to be a petsitter is to help you doing what I love the most! Let me know if you have any further questions.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon 😸🐶🐭

My dog stayed overnight. Minerva and her partner were very flexible in the drop off and pick up times. And were willing to send some pictures and updates throughout the day. A very nice service and my dog seemed really happy as well.

Super happy with Minerva and her partner as our petsitters. They took amazing care of our busy puppy Bruce and enjoyed it also a lot themselves. Thank you so much, we will definetely come back!
