About me

My name is Nancy, and I have extensive experience with caring for dogs. In our household, we've always had dogs. Personally, I have had two mixed-breed dogs: a Schnauzer-Poodle mix and a Collie-German Shepherd mix. Both lived to the respectable ages of 16 and 15 years. My most recent experience was raising a Golden Retriever puppy named Chevy for Helppes, an organization that trains assistant and guide dogs. I had Chevy for 9 months, during which I taught him socialization skills, from meeting other dogs to visiting museums and participating in various social activities. He quickly learned basic commands and later mastered retrieving objects on command as a future assistance dog.

What I need to know about pet

To ensure I can take the best care of your dog, please provide me with the necessary information to look after your pet.

What is your pet's name and breed?
What is their age and health status? Do they have any health issues or special needs?
What are their daily habits and routines?
What is their temperament? Are they calm, energetic, shy, or friendly?
How do they get along with other dogs?
Do they have any favorite toys, games, or activities?
How are they used to walking? Do they have favorite places or routes?
Are there any specific instructions for feeding or care?
How do they react to strangers or new situations?
Is there anything else I should know about their behavior that would help me take better care of them?
As for breeds, there is no specific breed that I cannot handle, but it is good to know if your dog has any particular needs or behaviors that I should be aware of.

I look forward to working with you and getting to know your pet!

What we learned when we met Nancy
from verification interview with Hlídačky.cz

Nancy pochází z Košic, kde vystudovala obchodní střední školu. Následně absolvovala roční pomaturitní studium angličtiny a odjela do USA jako au-pair. První rok strávila v rodině s novorozenými trojčaty. Druhý rok začala v New Yorku, ale pak se vrátila ke své první rodině a zůstala tam i další rok. Kromě trojčat se v rodině starala i o další děti. Rok pracovala jako animátorka v resortu v USA, nějakou dobu cestovala a od roku 2012 žije v Praze a pracuje v administrativě.

Odmala měla pejska, křížence. O osm let později přibyl další kříženec - kolie s vlčákem. Ke konci života už neměl v pořádku játra, tak musel mít přísnou dietu a navíc měl epileptické záchvaty. V roce 2023 měla devět měsíců zlatého retrívra, kterého cvičila na asistenčního psa.

Domluví se anglicky. Ve volném čase se ráda vzdělává, cestuje a poznává nové věci. Pravidelně také sportuje - věnuje se plavání a cyklistice. Baví ji i fotografování.


How Nancy handles everyday situations

You are about to look after 5 years old Anna from Prague. She has been going to kindergarten for a year and her mum and dad need to have a rest and go for the trip together on Saturday. You know Anna has been looked after only by her mum's sister, she would not last long for the book and enjoys any movement the most. The parents won't have any special requirements for the daily schedule leaving it completely up to you. What is your common Saturday going to look like?

zajiste bych chtela o mnoho vice informaci o Anicke a jejich aktivitach. Kam spolecne s rodinou chodi, jak spolu travi cas, co Anicku zaujima - sport, zvirata, poznavaci stezky, plavani, brusle atd. Dle odpovedi od rodicu bych naplanovala program na dopoledne neco aktivniho, pres obed asi hodinovou pauzu, ze by jsme si povidali co ji oslovilo rano a odpoledne by jsme si mohli rozdelit neco mene fyzicky narocneho, mozna spojit program s kulturou nebo si doma neco spolecne lehkeho uvarit nebo upect dle navyku v domacnosti.

You are at the sandpit with Anna enjoying not only playing at climbing frames but also making sand cakes. Anna is sitting calmly trying to prepare a confectionery pleasure. She is holding a sifter in her hand "sugaring" the sand cake. Suddenly, a little girl approximately at the same age comes to her, takes the sifter and is going to play with it herself. Anna is really unhappy and looks as she is going to cry. How are you going to solve the situation?

pred prichodem na piskoviste, by jsme si mohli s Anickou nastavit pravidla jak se budeme chovat v urcitych pripadech, jak spravne postupovat, kdyz ostatne deti se nechovaji hezky, resp kdyz ona je svedkem ublizovani ostatnim detem. Anicku by jsem se snazila uklidnit, ze situaci budeme resit pokojne a hned. Devcatko by jsem se zeptala s kym je na piskovisti a oslovila by jsem doprovod a informovala o netaktnem chovani ditete vuci Anicce.

You have agreed with the parents they would come back home in the evening to make their daughter fall asleep. Half an hour before they should arrive, the desperate mother is calling you she has been stuck in traffic on the highway and they will certainly not be able to arrive on time. There is going to be a serious delay and there is nobody to substitute for them. Anna is quite tired of the all-day rollicking and she is asking for her parents. How are you going to cope with the situation?

Anicce bych neslibila, ze ji budou uspavat rodice. Domluvila by jsem se s nima, ze to spise bude prekvapeni pokud stihnou jeji cas uspavani. Anicku by jsem pripravila na spanek - vecere/koupel, cteni pohadek, povidani si a mozna by casem usnula, pokud ne, snazila by jsem se ji co nejdele nechat v klidnem rezimu, ale to skutecne zalezi od ditete. Nektere deti od unavy maji hodne energie a nejde je lehko sklidnit, je nutne je poznat, co na nich funguje. Nekterym staci, kdyz si zpivaji,kresli nebo povidaji, nebo jim pripravit soutez co je namotivuje byt potichu v posteli.

“Slečna Gabriela se postarala 3 noci o naší roční fenku a byli jsme s hlídáním moc moc spokojení! Na Gabči bylo už při prvním setkání vidět, že ví jak se o pejsky starat a naše fenka si ji okamžitě oblíbila. Během hlídání nás informovala, posílala fotky a celkově domluva byla skvělá! Rozhodně se na Gabču znovu obrátíme, až budeme opět shánět hlídání. Moc díky! 😊 ”
