Kenneth

Hello all pet owners! I am Kenneth from Hong Kong, who has just moved to Jarrow with my wife and our dog, Chico, and will be welcoming our baby in mid-November:) We lived in South Shields for a year and the Netherlands for almost 9 years before, I have a degree in physiotherapy and currently work in Jarrow, while my wife is a musician. We both love animals, that is why we adopted Chico from Spain almost 9 years ago. I have always worked as a part-time pet sitter in the Netherlands, while my wife helped me out whenever she was at home. After around 5 years, my profile has gradually been piled up with a lot of happy guests.

I will be offering the following services:

1. Dog boarding service in our house

I have hosted multiple dogs in the Netherlands, they have always returned home happy and healthy, but currently we host only one guest dog at a time. When you reach me, I will invite you for a meet and greet in which your dog could get to know us, 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.

We live in a 3-bedroom house, your dog will have enough space to move around. During the day, we will give him/her a nice walk in the park unless the weather is too bad.

We kindly ask you to bring the food for your dog, as Chico's meals are prepared by my wife, we do not have kibbles at home. I will wash their bowls after every meal. If you have any special requests, please feel free to let me know.

We have an extra bed for our guest dogs, but if you would like to bring your dog's own bed or crate, it is totally fine with us. It would be great to have a few blankets with your smell too.

During your dog's stay, I will always keep you updated with videos and photos. I can guarantee that he/she will be safe, healthy, and happy.

2. Dog daycare service in our house

Like dog boarding service, we could arrange a meet and greet beforehand, and I will host only one guest dog at a time. The time for check-in and check-out is also totally flexible. 

I will make sure your dog is well accompanied and gets enough exercise, 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.

We want to continue hosting doggies so our baby can learn respect and empathy towards life and nature. Another thing to note, we always keep our promise and your booking is secured with us, we do not change or cancel it leaving you panic about your plans. Please feel free to contact me, I am looking forward to meeting your furry kid!:)
