Pet care experience

An absolute dog-lover’s home with a huge garden

I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember, growing up with furry companions by my side. Over the years, I’ve cared for many dogs, including regular dog-sitting for my friend’s pup, Petra, whenever she goes on holiday. Now, I live in a house with a spacious 200-square-meter garden — the perfect playground for your dog to run, sniff, and explore! I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and always form a strong bond with them. With years of hands-on experience and a deep love for animals, I promise to give your dog the care, attention, and cuddles they deserve while you’re away. I only host one booking at a time, but I’m happy to care for multiple dogs from the same family. This way, your pups can stay together in a familiar pack environment while still receiving plenty of individual love and care.

Doggy Day Care • Feb 15, 2026

Jiena is a responsible and dedicated dog sitter with a genuine love for animals. My dog felt comfortable with her immediately and was always happy in her care. She is reliable, attentive, and communicates very well. I would confidently recommend her services to any pet owner.

Jiena has provided the best care we could expect for our Cocker Spaniel Princesse: addressing particular needs and quickly building trust. Her home and husband Edwin are both very pet friendly, we in particular appreciated the lush garden, the flexibility and engagement shown for example by going on a run with Princesse and taking pictures and videos to reassure us while away. A big thanks and see you soon! Lisa and Romain for Princesse 🐕

Doggy Day Care • Jun 23, 2025

English below :) Fantastische oppas! Omdat het mijn eerste keer was, mochten we van tevoren langskomen — Jiena was supervriendelijk en nam de tijd om ons kennis te laten maken met haar, het huis en de tuin. Dat gaf meteen een vertrouwd gevoel. Ze hield me de hele dag door op de hoogte met foto’s en video’s, luisterde goed naar mijn wensen en ging liefdevol en geduldig om met mijn puppy van 4,5 maand. Hij voelde zich helemaal op z’n gemak en kwam blij en ontspannen weer thuis. Een oppas zoals je hoopt te vinden — ik raad haar iedereen aan! Amazing sitter! Since it was my first time leaving my puppy, she kindly let us visit the day before. Jiena was super friendly and welcoming — she took the time to show us around the house and garden, which made me feel instantly at ease. Throughout the day, she kept me updated with lots of sweet photos and videos. She really listens to your wishes and takes such loving, patient care of your dog. My 4.5-month-old puppy felt completely at ease and came back home happy and relaxed. Exactly the kind of sitter every dog owner hopes to find — I highly recommend her!

I know Jiena for many years, and she is an amazing person. When it comes to dogs, I hardly know anyone whom loves them more than she does. We have a couple of dogs home, and they absolutely love when she is around. She is very attentive and careful with them, thus no surprise why my dogs love her. I can strongly recommend Jiena as a pet sitter.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

As a freelancer working from home every day, pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m home most of the time, so your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and company throughout the day. Because I have a flexible schedule, I can easily follow your dog’s usual routine — whether that means regular walks, time in the garden, meals, or simply being nearby for comfort and cuddles. Your pup will never feel alone or bored while staying with me!

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I offer a calm, dog-friendly home with a 200m² garden — perfect for safe outdoor play and exploring. I always supervise outside time and make sure the environment stays clean, secure, and relaxed. Since I work from home, your dog will never be left alone for long periods. I build trust by giving each pup the attention, affection, and routine they’re used to, so they can settle in quickly and feel at home. Whether it’s their first stay or they’re a regular guest, I do everything I can to create a safe, loving, and low-stress environment — just like you would.

A typical day

Every dog is different, and I tailor each day to your pup’s usual routine to help them feel safe, happy, and at home. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers a more relaxed pace, I follow their schedule as closely as possible — from walk times and meals to play, rest, and any special care they need.

To give your dog the best care possible, it’s really helpful to know a few things in advance: • 🐾 Daily routine – Walk times, meal schedule, nap habits, and any special rituals • 🐶 Personality – Are they shy, playful, energetic, or more laid-back? • 🐕 Behavior around other dogs or people – Any reactivity, fears, or things they love/hate • 💊 Medical needs – Medications, allergies, or anything health-related I should watch for • 🧸 Comfort items – Favorite toys, blankets, or anything that helps them feel at home • 🚫 Any no-go zones or rules – Are they allowed on the couch? Any training you want me to stick to? The more I know, the better I can make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for!
