Saskia & Maarten looked after Erik’s pets & home

If you're looking for someone trustworthy, capable, and genuinely loving towards animals, look no further than Saskia. She is one of the most reliable and thoughtful individuals I know, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her as a house and pet sitter. Saskia has an extensive background managing multiple short-term accommodations simultaneously, she’s not only highly organized and detail-oriented but also deeply understands the importance and value of maintaining a home to a high standard. Saskia shines at managing logistics, handling unexpected situations, creating ideal temporary and long term fixes, and generally keeping things running smoothly , Saskia does it all with calm competence. What truly sets Saskia apart, is her lifelong connection with animals. One of her first jobs was in animal care at a wildlife organization, and has cared for pets all her life. As a devoted pet owner, she brings not just experience but an intuitive understanding of animal behavior and needs. She’s cared for others' pets in a wide range of capacities—from quick, last-minute check-ins to multi-week stays involving daily care, companionship, and even training if needed. Her ability to bond with animals quickly and earn their trust is remarkable. Saskia and I have been close for years and I can vouch for her integrity, responsibility, and warmth. She approaches every commitment with dedication and care, and I’d trust her in my home and with my pets without a second thought. You’ll be lucky to have her on board—your pets will be in loving hands, and your home will be just as you left it, likely better.
