About Elena

More than 15 years of experience with cats

Cats have been an important part of my life for more than 15 years.

It all started with Bandit and Lady — a brother and sister we adopted from the streets. When we moved to the Netherlands, they came with us as part of our family. Starting a new life wasn't always easy, but having Bandit and Lady by our side made everything feel a little easier. Thanks to them, we quickly began to feel at home.

After recently losing Lady, I realised even more how much caring for cats means to me. I want to share that care, attention and warmth with other cats and their families, while keeping Lady's memory close to my heart.

Today, Bandit still brings that same feeling of calm and comfort into our home.

I hold a Master's degree in Biology and BioMedicine, specialising in human and animal physiology. During my studies, I was involved in research into new treatments for animals with acute kidney and heart failure complicated by diabetes.

This experience taught me to pay attention to the small details. I don't just feed your cat, refresh their water and clean the litter box — I also notice changes in their behaviour and wellbeing, and I'll always let you know if something seems unusual.

Every new relationship starts with a Meet & Greet (€5) — a chance for your cat get to know me in their familiar surroundings.

So when you’re away, you can relax knowing your cat is in caring, attentive hands.

    She checks her schedule and replies personally — usually within a day.

  3. Meet & Greet

    For first bookings, a €5 visit so Elena, you and your cat meet in person.

  4. Payment, then care

    Pay securely via link online. Visits begin on your dates, following your cat's routine.

FAQ

Questions people usually ask.

What happens during a Home Visit?

About 20–30 minutes with your cat: feeding and fresh water, cleaning the litter box, a little play, and quiet companionship — following the daily routine you already have at home.

Can Elena give my cat medication?

Medication mixed into food is fine and part of a normal visit. Tablets and pills aren't offered as a standard service. This isn't veterinary care — if your cat needs medical attention, that's a job for your vet.

What days and hours can Elena visit?

Sunday to Friday, 09:00–17:00. Visits are normally scheduled in one of these time windows: 09:00–11:00, 11:00–13:00, 13:00–15:00 or 15:00–17:00. Saturday is normally Elena's day off. If Saturday is essential, please mention it in your request and Elena will check availability.

Do you visit outside Amstelveen?

The standard service area is Amstelveen and homes within roughly 7 km. Slightly further out is often possible with a small travel supplement — send your address and Elena will confirm.

Is a Meet & Greet always required?

For your first booking, yes. It's a €5 visit so Elena, you and your cat can meet in person, walk through the routine, and agree on the details before care begins.

How does payment work?

After you send a request, Elena confirms availability personally. Once confirmed you'll receive a secure payment link to pay online. No accounts, no automatic charges.
