Hondenuitlaatservice Aleksandra uit Overdinkel

Animal behaviorist and veterinary technician by education and passion.

Distance up to 30km. If needed, we can also arrange furry taxi ;)

As a petsitter I guarantee you quality time with your dog/cat/rabbit/budgie.
I had an opportunity to assist in running a dog kindergarten and classes for companion dogs. I have experience in petsitting dogs, cats and rodents both at home and at the owner's home, I also provide behavioral consultations. I can apply any medication if needed.

I always adjust the intensity of the walk to the individual needs of my client - some dogs will need a quiet walk with a lot of sniffing, others will be happy to engage in play, running or simple exercises. :) After prior arrangement and longer cooperation, it is possible to introduce elements of training, e.g. calmly passing other dogs/pedestrians/cyclists, reaction to recall, heelwork. I base my work on the relationship with the dog, I do not use aversive methods, I do not walk dogs on thin slip collar, of course I can help with matching the appropriate collar/harness for your dog to feel comfortable :) Currently, I live with a lovely medium-sized female who likes dog and cat company, respecting their space and signals sent by the guest.

Want to know a bit more? I studied 5 yrs at the University of live sciences in Lublin city. Later I build also a veterinary technician and dog trainer skills. I am constantly gaining wider competences. I participate in kyno conferences, and short courses and workshops like "Aggression in dogs" with Amber Batson, "Emotions and motivations" with Alexa Capra, webinars about dogs communication with Michele Minunno. I ran a temporary home for dogs and exotic companion animals and helped with adoption procedures. I gained a lot of experience in dealing with many dogs, some of them had kinds of behavioral issues, but as a beh/dog trainer I can can say I speak their language ;). In positive, kind and respectful way of course.

I had also an opportunity to deal with various exotic species, mainly due to work as an animal keeper at the ZOO. I felt fulfilled looking after all kinds of animals, introducing a few changes, at least slightly improving welfare of my pupils and doing my best to make their life better. For financial reasons I am currently working here in the Netherlands as a part time warehouse worker, conducting behavioral consultations and companion animal care as well as online classes in the meantime.

Feel free to make a booking or contact me :)
I will be very pleased to meet you and your pet,
See you soon,
Aleksandra :)
