Kenneth

Hello all pet owners! I am Kenneth from Hong Kong, who has just moved to South Shields with my wife and our dog, Chico. We have lived in Europe for almost 9 years before, I graduated from the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences with a degree in Physiotherapy, while my wife is an opera singer, pianist, and music teacher. We both love animals, that is why we adopted Chico from Spain 8 years ago. I worked as a part-time pet sitter in the Netherlands alongside my study, while my wife helped me out when she was at home. After around three years, my profile has been piled up with a lot of happy guests.

I will be offering the following services:

1. Dog boarding service in our house

I will be hosting no more than 2 guest dogs at a time. When you reach me, I will first arrange a meet and greet with you and your dog, for which your dog could get to know me and Chico, and I could hear your needs. If both you and your dog feel comfortable with us, we could then confirm the booking. The time for check-in and check-out at our place is totally flexible.

During the meet and greet, I would love to know:
- how many walks your dog would need in a day, and how long they should be;
- at what time I should prepare breakfast and dinner for him/her;
- if he/she would have something that I should take special care of, such as allergic reactions to certain food, anxious reactions to certain thing, or medications.

As Chico is 8 years old, I usually walk him three times a day - a morning walk before his breakfast, a long walk in the afternoon, and a night walk before bed. I will do my best to accommodate your dog's need.

Most of my guests would bring their own food, and I will wash their bowls after every meal. If you have any special requests, please feel free to let me know.

Some of my guests would like to bring their own bed or crate, it is totally fine with us.

During your dog's stay, I will always keep you updated with videos and photos.

2. Dog daycare service in our house

Like dog boarding service, we will arrange a meet and greet beforehand, and I will be hosting no more than 2 guest dogs at a time - so if a guest dog is staying in my house for a week, I could only accommodate one other guest dog for daycare. The time for check-in and check-out is totally flexible. 

I will make sure your dog is well accompanied and gets enough exercise during the day, and I will keep you updated with videos and photos.

3. Dog walking service

I would come to your house to hear about your dog's need before I give him/her the first walk. Please let me know at what time and for how long you would like the walks to be, I will come to your place on time and give you updates after the walks.

4. House visits for cats

I would also come to your place for a meet and greet with you and your cat. I must introduce myself to the master, write down what he/she needs, and when I am needed. Besides offering food and water, I would spend time with the master until he/she is happy, and I will give you updates after the visits.

Please feel free to contact me, I am looking forward to meeting your furry kid!:)
