Hi! I’m Elisa, 30, Italian, and now living in Brussels. I grew up surrounded by animals—mostly cats and a few German Shepherds at my dad’s place—so having pets has always felt completely natural to me. My mom still has four lovely cats back home, and every time I visit her it gets harder and harder to leave them behind. That’s when I realized how much I miss having pets in my daily life. Since I can’t have my own right now, I’m really happy to spend my time taking care of yours. I already cat-sit for a friend here in Brussels whenever she’s away, and I absolutely love it—it feels like borrowing a little bit of joy and comfort. For me, looking after your furry loved ones isn’t just helping you out, it’s also the best gift you can give me. I’d be so happy to meet you and your companions soon!
