Ready to love & play with your pet.

Pet care experience

Growing up on a farm in the Netherlands with horses, cats, goats and chickens gave me a great sense of responsibility in taking care of animals.

We felt really good about leaving our girls with Saskia! She sent us pictures throughout our entire trip and kept us updated. We look forward to using her again.

Chloe is so happy after Saskia has fed, walked and played with her. I don' t worry about a bored, lonely puppy when I'm gone. Such a wonderful, dog-loving sitter to trust my big girl to!

Saskia was the PERFECT sitter for my energic german shepherd. She took her on walks and had a huge backyard for her to run in. I knew the moment we stepped in the door that this was the right fit for us. You can immediately tell that Saskia is an animal lover which is very reassuring to us pet owners. I look forward to booking her again and again!

Saskia took such great care of our Cooper during his first overnight stay with her. She took him for walks and a hike, which he loves. She sent us pictures and videos to let us know how he was doing. We knew when he took to her right away, that he was in good hands. We highly recommend Saskia as a rover sitter and will definitely use her again! Thank you Saskia!

Safety, trust & environment

Having a large fenced yard is great for the dogs that needs physical stimulation and who just want to run around or play fetch. The house it self is very spacious and dog/cat friendly, I like to have a clean house as well. If needed you can bring your dogs crate so that their is a sense of a safe and familiar space. Also I know that it is important to have regular updates with good quality of photos or videos. If you book with me this is guaranteed, unless you do not want it. Your dog(s) or cat(s) will definitely get enough attention in my home and I will take care of it as he or she is my own.

Information Saskia D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cat(s) or dog(s) has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I will do my utmost best to make sure that all of her/his needs are met. If you are more than 2 hours late with picking-up your pet after boarding the agreed boarding time I will charge a 1/2 daycare fee till 12:00 pm or a full day care fee till 18:00 pm. If you are late after a day care stay without notice up front will also be charged. If you do not comply with the agreements which are made on Rover during your cat(s) or dog(s) stay, there is no follow-up appointment.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. We can play outside in the fenced back yard, and in the summer there is a small pool in the shade for some water fun. Another possibility is to take your dog on a walk in my neighborhood "Five Points" or to go on a hike in Monte Sano. Regarding cats, I will not crate them. They will have a good, calm and spacious house were they can wonder around and will have attention from me.
