Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog handler/trainer with 15+ years of experience
I have taken care of pets since I was 7 years old, when my family started a dog business. In the past years, I attended multiple dog shows and trained different dog breeds. My grandfather`s profession is a dog breeder and trainer and I always helped him and picked up some useful skills in pet care. I grew up helping run a dog kennel with my family in Romania, where we raised and trained dogs with a wide range of temperaments and needs. We worked most closely with Rottweilers, German Shepherds, and Bernese Mountain Dogs, but I’m comfortable handling any breed, including mixed breeds and rescue dogs who may need extra patience or structure. My experience includes obedience training, guarding, socialization, and correcting aggressive or reactive behavior, always tailored to the individual dog’s needs. I understand how to adjust care and training depending on breed traits, age, energy level, past trauma, or medical conditions, and I’m always happy to follow your pet’s routine to keep them safe, calm, and fulfilled.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I currently do not host dogs in my own home, but I’m happy to care for them in your home while you’re away. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — walks, meals, attention, and playtime included — so they feel safe and relaxed. I know how stressful it can be for pets to stay in shelters or busy kennels, and I always aim to offer the opposite: calm, one-on-one care, where your dog feels secure in their environment. This way, you return home to the same happy pet you left — no disruption, just wagging tails.
Ratings and reviews
Thanks Vladimir for taking care of the dogs. For sure everything went well
Hele rustige en fijne oppas. Vladimir heeft geen enkele moeite gehad met het uitlaten van onze drie honden. Wij kregen regelmatig updates en foto’s. Kortom, een zeer betrouwbare oppas!
Erg blij met de liefde & zorg voor onze hond van Vladimir! Met een gerust hart vertrokken en hij stuurde leuke foto’s tijdens zijn verblijf bij ons in huis! Dankjewel voor herhaling vatbaar!
Vladimir took great care of our two Newfoundlands, which is not an easy job. They need brushing, daily drying and extra fur care, and they might be tough to bring outside on your own when playful. He did marvellous. We were away but relaxed and confident they were in good hands. Absolutely recommended!
Vladimir was really great with my energetic and playful dog- took him for lots of exercise and sent plenty of photos during the stay. He was super responsive and helped us out when our flight home was delayed a day. Would definitely book again!
If you're looking for a pet caregiver who will treat your dog like family, look no further than Vladimir! He took care of my beloved pooch while I was out of town and I couldn't be happier with the care he provided. Vladimir is not only responsible and reliable, but he has an uncanny ability to connect with dogs on a deep level. My dog is usually quite reserved with strangers, but she took to Vladimir immediately and was clearly very comfortable in his presence. Vladimir went out of his way to make sure my dog received plenty of exercise and affection, and he even taught her a new trick! I appreciated his regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Vladimir as a pet caregiver for anyone looking for someone who truly loves and understands dogs.

Schedule
Pet care is a core part of my daily life. I’m currently catching up on university credits, which gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of free time that I dedicate to dog sitting, walks, and outdoor activities. Whether it's early morning or late evening, I’m able to adjust to each pet's needs and routine. Caring for animals isn't just something I do on the side — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize every day.
