Hi, we are Inês and Matilde! We are a Portuguese couple with a passion for travel and a deep love for animals, currently living in Brussels working as computer engineers. When we are not befriending the neighbour's dog, you can find us playing boardgames, hiking, watching international cinema, singing at the local choir or playing futsal :) Why do we want to pet sit? Because it is a great way to reconnect to pets! While we don't have any pets of our own at the moment, we've always been drawn to the joy and companionship that animals bring into our lives. So, as we count down the days until we have an apartment where pets are allowed, we compensate for our pet cravings by making a list of all the possible names for pets, hanging out with cows, goats, alpacas and ducks during our hikes :D We were both fortunate enough to grow with pets: Matilde has two big cats back in her hometown (Sky and André), and I two even bigger dogs (Nina and Flash) in mine, so we make for a great team! We are both very used to the cares and daily needs of our animal companions: from going for walks and ensuring good hygiene and nutrition, to giving them their medication and, obviously, lots of (healthy) treats!
