Hi :)
My name is Vittoria, I am 24 years old and I am italian. I have been living in Gent for about 2 years and I am currently studying at University. I love animals, dogs in particular, and I love spending time with them. I truly believe animals make our lives better and caring for them really makes me happy.
I have a dog myself, his name is Martino and he is a chihuahua. He is almost 4 years old and he might be small in size but he definitely makes up for it in personality. Unfortunately, he still lives in Italy with my family and I miss him very much.
Experience wise I have been volunteering at the local dog shelter by taking dogs for walks. In addition, I am used at spending time with and dog sitting my family's dogs: a german sheperd, a simil-labrador and an american bully. All well trained. When I hang out with friends that have pets they know I will be most likely be sitting on the floor to spend time with them.
I believe I am good at caring for pets. My dog has a bit of a difficult personality, he is not very trusting with other humans/animals. This has given me the ability to understand when a dog is not comfortable in a certain situation. In addition, I know that owners have preferences concerning food and treats for their pets and I will follow the instructions that are given to me. I believe it is important for pets to have a certain routine concerning their food diet.
I can't take pets into my home but I can offer walks and home visits. I am currently writing my master thesis so I can study from your home while taking care of your pets! I love being outside so I will be more than happy to take your dogs for a long walk if necessary!
