Window cleaner Nolly attracts lots of attention with his dog Zarrie: "The highlight of Amsterdam"
Window cleaner Nolly Vittali has become a well-known figure in Amsterdam due to his loyal dog, Zarrie, who accompanies him on his daily routes. The pair has gained local popularity, with residents and tourists frequently stopping to interact with the dog.
For forty years, window cleaner Nolly Vittali has worked in the center of Amsterdam, but he is now frequently accompanied by his loyal bobtail dog, Zarrie. The dog has become a local celebrity, drawing attention from tourists and residents alike who often stop to pet or photograph him. Nolly, who considers Zarrie his constant companion, notes that the dog joins him everywhere he goes, making his daily work life significantly more enjoyable.
Nolly comes from a multi-generational family business originally started by his Italian grandfather, who moved to the city in the 1930s. His father eventually transitioned from chimney sweeping to window cleaning, even becoming a national champion in the field in 1969. Nolly has continued this family tradition and now works alongside his own son. After a difficult year without a pet following the loss of a previous dog, Nolly emphasizes that having Zarrie by his side provides essential companionship that enriches his personal and professional life.
