I work from home permanently, and have plenty of time to walk dogs. I walk my dog 3 times a day; 07:00 (1,5hr) - 13:00 (1hr) - Evening 20:30 (15min). However we can adjust to our guests' needs. My own dog is fine staying home alone, I normally am not longer away than up to 4 hours but this is exceptional. Again we can adjust to our guests.

My home is already designed for a dog's best life, so that is no issue. I have a large fenced off balcony for the sunny days. My apt has 3 rooms and so plenty of space for guests. I live in a super green area with lots of water, dog parks and great walk options.

Information Dennis L. would like to know about your pet

Its good for me to know: - how your dog interacts with other dogs in and outside - how your dog reacts to animals outside (birds, mice, cats) - how much excersize the dog can manage daily, as we will adjust to their needs

A typical day

Normally we throw frisbee, balls or sticks, all depending how well our guests can share their toys off course. In general I will walk between 7 - 10 km per day with the dogs, as this is what my dog needs. At the house I give our guests lots of attention and playtime, without disturbing the nap needs. All adjusted to the specific guests off course. In principal I never unleash our guests on outside walks, I do not like to take risks. The dogs will get lots of space with me on the leash.

Pet care experience

Hi There, my name is Dennis and a life long dog lover. Our family has always taken in dogs from people who could no longer take care of them. In our household, the kids were responsible for taking care of the pets and so from a young age I learned to handle doggies. I know how hard it is to leave your dog, I have the still with Dara as well. So I promise to treat your furry amigo as my own family. At the moment I have my own dog Dara for 11 years who stays with me and sometimes with my family. This means that if needed, Dara can stay with my family if our guests are not fans of other doggies. I have dog sat up to 20 times for friends' dogs from pups to seniors, sometimes up to 3 dogs. I understand how important trust, patience and routine are. However for now 2 is the max. amount of doggies I would take on. I work permanently from home and take long walks but we can adjust to our guests. We will accept regulars on a daily base but also long staying guests. The dog sitting would happen at my 3-room apartment in Diemen Noord with a large balcony with sun. We live in a 'polder', meaning its surrounded by nature and water. There are many walking routes and dog parks around. We would only accept vaccinated doggies. Larger dogs over 15kg that are very energetic are not a great match for Dara, however Dara sometimes stays with my family. So if the timing is right larger energetic dogs can be accepted. In regards with my neighbors, we cannot accept dogs that constantly bark or howl unfortunately.

Dennis heeft goed voor Bailo gezorgd. Goede communicatie ook met fotos en filmpjes van hoe het gaat. Zeker een aanrader.

Dennis took great care of our dog. He really understands dogs and gives them what they need in the moment - be it some space, a ball or a walkie. We will definitely leave our dog with him again.

Dennis took care of our Labrador Theo for two weeks while we were away on vacation and I’m happy that we now have a trusted pet caregiver in him, whenever we plan our next trip. Theo is by no means an easy dog to handle with his 25 kg muscle build body, while well trained, he’s like every Labrador - playful and sometimes pulling the leash but Dennis managed to build a great relationship with him and was very engaged throughout, sending us a lot of photos to keep us updated. We can highly recommend Dennis as a caring dog owner himself he delivered and exceeded our expectations!

Dennis not only loves animals, and especially dogs, but also takes care of them with very high levels of responsibility, ensuring their needs are met and that they get all the love and attention in the world. Whenever Dennis takes care of my dog, I know she will enjoy long walks, lots of pets and cuddles, fun playing time and I can rely that she is in a safe and comfortable environment and having tons of fun. I'd trust Dennis with any pet.
