LAUNCHING MY DOG MINDING SERVICES:
For those that don’t know me, Chantal Wiessner, I ❤️ dogs! I ❤️ dogs more than most humans.
While living in Cyprus 🇨🇾 between 2020-2023, I was a volunteer with Nieske De Jonge. Nieske founded and continues to operate Strayhaven Dog Rescue and Adoption Centre.
Nieske’s life’s purpose is to “help those who do not have a voice and cannot help themselves”. She is beyond inspiring. The obstacles she’s overcome including the burning down of the Giolou (Cyprus) shelter. Nieske makes the world a better place!
I volunteered on the ground at the shelter, feeding, walking and cleaning. I became a foster carer to some of the more vulnerable rescues and I helped a little with fundraising, from time to time. But, I prefer hands on work with the dogs.
I have been offering dog minding services in my home, more or less since moving to Acequias. Below are my rates:
1-7 days
First day 30€ (if first stay)
Every other day 20€
7+ days
First day 30€ (if first stay)
Every other day 15€
My rates include 3 campo walks per day when climate allows, 2 otherwise.
The doggy’s food fave toy, bowl, bed and Pet Passport must be supplied for the stay.
I’m experienced in caring for and medicating sick dogs, even with human chemotherapy (advanced Leishmaniasis). 
Male dogs must be neutered otherwise cleaning closts are added. Female dogs cannot be on heat during their stay, cleaning & increased care costs will be applied. All dogs must be human and dog socialised.
I accept a maximum of 2 doggy guests, from one client, at any one time. My environment is no good for more dogs.
At this time, all sits are in my home. I’m not available for house sitting generally.
IMPORTANT: I will not take on any of my Lecrín valley friends (Liz and Helen) clients! Liz or Helen will let me know if they’re not available and would like help.
Way too many dogs to include a photo of each one I’ve helped but, here’s a few photos I could easily find.
