Hello Pawshake community! My name is Laura, and I’m a Psychology student at Maastricht University. Growing up, I was always surrounded by cats and dogs and developed an enormous LOVE for them! Since moving to the Netherlands for my studies, I’ve had to leave my beloved pets with my family back home and I truly miss their company. That’s why it would be an absolute pleasure to take care of your pets and share some of the love and care I have to give. I completely understand how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pet with someone new. That’s why I’ll keep you updated frequently with pictures and little notes about our time together, to help put your mind at ease. I’m happy to follow any specific routines, preferences, or care instructions you have. My top priority is making sure both you and your pet feel comfortable and cared for. Back in Greece, I also volunteered at an animal shelter, where I provided care, affection, and support to animals in need. Through that experience, I gained valuable knowledge in basic medical care, behavioral training, and recognizing signs of overall animal health. In addition to volunteering, I also regularly looked after my neighbors' pets when they were away. En ja, ik spreek Nederlands! Ik ben opgegroeid in Griekenland, maar ik ben half Nederlands! Je kunt me dus ook altijd in het Nederlands bereiken. Warm regards, Laura
