Hondenoppas in Antwerpen

Over: What sets me apart is that I’m calm, patient, and very focused on safety. I never rush a dog through a walk. I adjust to their personality and energy level, and I love relaxed sniff walks that help dogs feel comfortable and confident. I’m especially good with shy or sensitive dogs because I stay gentle, consistent, and predictable. I also send clear updates and photos, and I always respect your routine and rules. I’m happy to care for: Puppies (gentle leash practice, basic routines, positive reinforcement) Senior dogs (slower pace, shorter walks, extra comfort and attention) Dogs who need structure, calm handling, and patience Right now I’m in between two careers, so I currently have a lot of time and flexibility in my schedule. That means I can easily plan my days around pet care and give dogs the time and attention they deserve, without rushing. I’m also very consistent with timing, updates, and routines. I care for pets in a calm, safe, and routine-based way. I follow the owner’s instructions closely (feeding schedule, walk routine, medication if needed). I keep the environment clean, make sure they get attention and enrichment, and I always send updates and photos. Safety comes first: secure leash handling, checking doors/gates, and keeping stress low.

Over: Hi! I’m based in Antwerp and I offer reliable and caring pet sitting services 🐾 I have a background as a cabin crew member, which means I’m highly responsible, detail-oriented, and used to handling different situations calmly and professionally. I also grew up in a farm environment, surrounded by animals such as pigs, sheep, chickens, dogs (both puppies and senior dogs), and cats (both stray and domestic). This gave me a natural ease and confidence when caring for animals with different temperaments and needs. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust — that’s why I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. What I offer: ✔ Dog walking ✔ Home visits ✔ Daily updates + photos ✔ Flexible & last-minute bookings I’m comfortable with different types of pets and I always adapt to their routine and needs. 📍 Based in Antwerp 💬 Quick response & WhatsApp available Feel free to message me anytime — I’d be happy to help! I currently work as a freelancer, which allows me to have a flexible schedule and be highly available to care for your pet throughout the day. This means regular walks, attention, and consistent presence to ensure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for. I currently live in a small studio, which is best suited for small to medium-sized pets. To ensure their well-being, I provide frequent outdoor walks and regular stimulation, so they stay active, comfortable, and happy. I always adapt to each pet’s routine and energy level to make sure they feel safe and relaxed during their stay.

“Je suis trop contente, Édouard était super bien la bas. Avec le jardin c’est génial. Steve est vraiment cool, on hésitera pas à refaire appel à lui !”

Over: J'ai toujours vécu avec des animaux, Chats, souris, hamsters... Et j'ai récemment rencontré et adopté ma nouvelle meilleure amie, une chienne de 5 ans. J'ai toujours pris énormément de plaisir à m'occuper des animaux des autres, et durant les quelques années ou j'ai vécu en montagne, je gardais régulièrement les chiens de mes amis. Aujourd'hui, j'ai même décidé d'essayer d'en faire mon métier. Je suis une formation pour devenir éducatrice canin, et je rêve sincèrement de construire ma vie professionnelle autour du bien-être animal. S'il y a une chose dont vous pouvez être certain en me confiant votre compagnon, c'est que je ferai toujours preuve d'une grande bienveillance à son égard et que je lui offrirai toute la patience et la tendresse dont il a besoin, tout en respectant son espace. Les services que je vous propose sont: -des promenades et des séances de jeu, pour que votre chien puisse se défouler -des gardes à mon domicile lorsque je suis disponible, y compris la nuit (c'est également valable pour nos amis les chats). A l'heure actuelle, je suis très disponible car je n'ai pas d'activité professionnelle, mais comme je suis en recherche, j'ajusterai mes disponibilité en temps voulu. Je suis actuellement à la recherche d'un travail. J'ai plusieurs projets en cours et je suis une formation d'éducatrice canin, qui se déroule principalement les week-ends. Idéalement, j'aimerais trouver un emploi à mi-temps afin de pouvoir consacrer le reste de mon temps à m'occuper de vos animaux. Je trouve indispensable d'avoir une fiche descriptive de l'animal, son caractère, ses besoins et ses routines. Idéalement, j'aimerais pouvoir rencontrer au préalable la personne et son compagnon, afin de créer un premier contact et montrer à l'animal que son humain me connaît et me fait confiance. Dans un premier temps, je propose de faire quelques essais dans le jardin du propriétaire et/ou dans le mien (j'ai un jardin parfaitement sécuritaire) pour établir un premier contact extérieur (particulièrement pour les chiens). Ensuite, nous pourrons passer progressivement à des promenades de plus en plus longues. Lors des promenades, je tiendrai toujours l'animal en laisse, sauf dans le cas d'un chien que je connais très bien, avec lequel une confiance mutuelle est établie, et uniquement avec l'accord du propriétaire. Le plus important pour moi est de pouvoir échanger de manière transparente avec le propriétaire et de prendre le temps de connaître l'animal dans la douceur et la bienveillance.

“Elena was absolutely great with Milo. Very responsive, quick to reply, and genuinely kind. You can tell she really cares. Milo looked completely at ease and happy with her, which means everything to us. We felt reassured the whole time. Would 100% recommend her”

“Super blij. 😀 Balou is een bange hond die schrik heeft van vreemden en heel gevoelig is voor prikkels. Dit warm gezin heeft mijn advies heel goed opgevolgd waardoor het heel goed is verlopen. Ze hebben eerst vertrouwen opgebouwd. Ze zijn heel toegewijd. Ook kreeg ik vele foto’s en filmpjes wat ik enorm apprecieerde. Balou gaat daar zeker opnieuw logeren. Bedankt voor de goede zorgen.”

Over: Hi! I’m a friendly and responsible dog lover based in Antwerp, living near Central Station. Thanks to my central location, I can easily reach different neighborhoods for dog walks and drop-in visits. I grew up with dogs when I was younger, so I’m comfortable around them and understand their needs. I enjoy spending time outdoors and staying active, which is why I truly enjoy walking dogs and taking care of them. I’m patient, attentive, and always adapt to each dog’s personality and pace—whether your dog is energetic or more relaxed. During every walk, I make sure your dog gets enough exercise, attention, and a safe, enjoyable experience. I’m happy to send photo updates after each visit or walk, so you can feel relaxed knowing your dog is in good hands. I’m flexible and available during weekdays, including daytime hours. I’m new on Rover and excited to meet new dogs and their owners in the area! I'm postgraduate students. I have a flexible schedule and am available for dog walking and drop-in visits throughout the week, including daytime on weekdays. Because I live near Antwerp Central Station, I can easily travel to different neighborhoods and respond to bookings quickly. I’m also open to last-minute requests whenever possible. I make sure to dedicate enough time and attention to each pet, so they feel comfortable and well cared for during every visit or walk. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine and personality, and I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner. For drop-in visits, I make sure your pet is well cared for by providing food, fresh water, and a clean environment (including litter box cleaning for cats if needed). I also spend quality time with your pet, whether that means playing or simply keeping them company. As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to create a calm and stress-free environment. I always treat every pet and home with respect and care, and I keep everything clean and organized. I’m happy to send regular photo updates so you can feel reassured while you’re away.

“Zeer vriendelijk, toegankelijk, super lief voor de hond! Leuke wandeling gemaakt met onze puppy van 4 maanden! 🐶 Wij komen zeker terug!”

Over: I’ve had a dog my whole life, he’s my best friend and I took care of him from 4 months old, so I am very vigilant and attentive, and like to integrate my dog in my daily activity so they are not just taken care of but as happy as possible away from their owner Im currently working hybrid full time, but always home on weekends, and usually monday/fridays as well. I love to walk around and love greenery, ideal for a pet, and am able to adapt to a pet easily. I have a very comfortable living space, and have access to a big park as well. Food, water, any amenities always assured based on the owner’s schedule for their dog

Over: Hello everyone! My name is Federica, I am Italian and I currently live in Antwerp, for few months! I speak Italian, English and German. My current job requires me to be out of home 3 days a week (usually Saturday and 2 days weekly) which means I have some good time to spend with your pets! I currently live with my partner who is also a animal lover and he would help me in taking care of your pet during an eventual stay fo your animal. I have a lot of hobbies: I love reading, doing crochet, yoga but also running. My hobbies fit very well with any kind of pets: I can relax at home cuddling them all day, I can take endless walks, or run with them but surely cuddles are not gonna be missing! I've been taking care of dogs for years now, from small to bigger size, I also take care of cats but less often. My main experience has been with a chihuahua and a lagotto romagnolo between others, I am missing having pets around me for a while now and that's the reason why I would like to help someone and enjoy and take care of someone else's pet! I am available for any information, feel free to contact me :) I am really looking forward getting to know you and your pet-friends! I'm currently working part time which means I will be out of my house 4 days a week. I currently live with my partner who is also an animal-lover and he would help me out in case you are planning to leave your pet with us for more than 1 day. I don't have a garden in my current house, but I don't have any problem in walking more than once a day of course. I am also a runner in case of dogs that need to run or be more active.

“Thank you very much Angelo! Django was super happy to have small holidays with you.”

Over: I am a caring, responsible, and trustworthy animal lover with a genuine passion for dogs and cats. Although I am new to professional pet sitting and dog walking, I have always enjoyed spending time with animals and understand the importance of providing them with attention, exercise, and affection. I am patient, attentive to pets’ needs, and committed to ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care. Whether it’s taking dogs on walks, playing with energetic pets, or giving cats the companionship they need, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Pet owners can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and dedicated to their pets’ well-being. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to dog walks, playtime, feeding, and providing companionship throughout the day. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so regular walks and caring for pets are something I genuinely look forward to. Whether a pet needs a quick visit, a longer walk, or attentive care while their owner is away, I am happy to adapt to their needs and ensure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, refreshing water, walks, playtime, administering basic care instructions, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to build trust and ensure they feel safe and happy while their owner is away. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where they can relax, play, and receive plenty of supervision. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, regular exercise, mental stimulation, and lots of love and companionship. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and treated like part of the family.

Over: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, especially dogs, so pet sitting feels like a very natural extension of who I am. I have four dogs back in Peru, and since moving to Antwerp last year to pursue my Master’s degree, I’ve deeply missed being around them. Caring for other people’s pets has become a way for me to stay connected to something I genuinely love and understand. In Peru, I gained hands-on experience through pet sitting for friends, family, and private clients, as well as caring for both dogs and cats in different environments. I have experience with short and long stays, including a dog who lived in my home for a month while his owner was travelling. I am calm, responsible, and very attentive to each animal’s emotional and physical needs. I focus on creating a safe, stable, and loving environment where pets can feel at ease and understood. I have experience with all life stages, from senior dogs to energetic puppies, and I am comfortable administering oral medication when needed. I provide structured walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, always respecting each pet’s routine and personality. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel fully reassured while they are away. For me, every pet is treated as family, with patience, consistency, and genuine care. I prefer vaccinated pets to ensure a safe environment for all. I can dedicate regular, consistent time each day to care for pets, including walks, play, feeding, and cuddles. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, as I prioritize attention, love, and engagement to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. My partner also loves animals and is around to help, which means your pet will always have plenty of attention and company. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for all pets in my care. I live in a cozy apartment with a small terrace, perfect for fresh air and short outdoor breaks. At home, I ensure clean spaces, secure routines, and close supervision. I respect each pet’s needs, monitor their wellbeing, and follow any special instructions from their owners. Communication is key: I provide updates, photos, and remain available for questions so owners can feel confident their pets are loved, safe, and happy.

Over: Wij, Henk & Daniëlle hebben al meer dan 30 jaar ervaring met verschillende soorten honden. Van huishond tot sporthond (pakwerk, speuren) en verschillende rassen van Friese stabij tot Bully xl en van Poedel tot Stafford. Kortom; wij hebben de nodige kennis in huis en zijn dol op honden. Bij ons is uw hond zo goed als thuis! Samen met mijn vrouw zal ik voor uw vriendje gaan zorgen. Mijn vrouw is hele dagen thuis en ik werk onregelmatige diensten dus ben ook veel thuis. Wij hebben een pleegzoon van 11 en een kleinzoon van bijna 1 jaar waar we vaak op passen. Wij hebben een omheinde tuin van ongeveer 100m2. Zelf hebben we op dit moment een Duitse herder pup van 13 weken, die goed met andere honden overweg kan. Wij gaan 4x per dag lopen met de honden waarvan 2 grote rondjes ( er wordt natuurlijk gelet op leeftijd en conditie) en 2 kleinere rondjes. 2 a 3 x per dag voeren we de honden, is maar net wat ze gewend zijn...maar letten wel op rust na het eten om maagkanteling te voorkomen. Wij voeren de honden altijd apart om misverstanden te voorkomen. Natuurlijk ontbreekt het ook niet aan de nodige knuffels en wat snackjes.

Over:

“Delfi is phenomenal! I am a repeat customer and my little dog loves spending time with her! In fact, when I drop off my little one, she runs to Delfi with excitement and always comes back to me relaxed and content. Delfi is flexible, friendly, and you can tell she enjoys being around animals. I would recommend her to anyone.”

“Lisa a été une personne hyper attentionnée et attentive au bien-être de notre chien ; grâce à elle, nous avons pu vivre nos vacances à l'étranger en toute sérénité. Je vous la recommande vivement !”
