Dagopvang Almere

Over: Wij zijn een warm en liefdevol gezin dat in een huis met een tuin woont en een grote liefde voor dieren heeft. Daarom vinden wij het fijn om voor dieren te zorgen wanneer hun baasjes even weg zijn. Onze dochter van 15 jaar is erg verantwoordelijk, geduldig en zorgzaam. Ze past regelmatig op de honden en katten van vrienden en kennissen en doet dit altijd met veel plezier. Dieren voelen zich snel op hun gemak bij haar en ze vindt het belangrijk dat ze voldoende aandacht, beweging en verzorging krijgen. Wij hebben zelf een kat gehad en hebben momenteel een papegaai. Ook hebben we vroeger al een papegaai gehad, waardoor we veel ervaring hebben met de verzorging van vogels. Daarnaast heeft onze dochter ervaring met het verzorgen van verschillende andere dieren, zoals kippen, eenden en koeien. Wij begrijpen dat elk dier zijn eigen behoeften en gewoontes heeft en doen ons best om ervoor te zorgen dat ieder dier zich veilig, comfortabel en geliefd voelt. Bij ons krijgen dieren veel aandacht, zorg en een fijne omgeving. Dit account wordt aangemaakt door mijn moeder, maar ik, Anna, ik ben 15 jaar, zal vooral voor de huisdieren zorgen. Wij zijn allebei grote dierenliefhebbers en vinden het belangrijk dat dieren goede zorg en aandacht krijgen. Tijdens de zomervakantie heb ik veel vrije tijd, waardoor de verzorging van huisdieren goed in mijn dagelijkse routine past. Ik heb voldoende tijd om dieren eten, vers water, aandacht en de verzorging te geven die zij nodig hebben. Veiligheid, vertrouwen & omgeving Wij wonen in een ruime woning en een afgesloten tuin. Daarnaast wonen wij vlak bij een bos en een park, wat ideaal is voor wandelingen met honden. We hebben zelf ook een papegaai en zijn gewend om goed voor dieren te zorgen. De veiligheid en het welzijn van huisdieren staan altijd voorop. Bij opvang of verzorging zorgen wij voor een rustige, veilige omgeving en volgen we altijd de afspraken van het baasje.

Over: I have 2 dogs of my own and years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Your dog will be coming into a calm, dog-savvy home run by people who genuinely love this - not somewhere treating it as a side hustle. I offer boarding at my place, house sitting at yours, and dog walks in and around Hilversum and the Gooi. I keep numbers small on purpose so that your dog gets real attention, a proper routine, and someone who actually notices if something feels off. I use an intake form with every booking so I know your dog's routine, quirks, health needs, and what they're like with other dogs before anything is confirmed. No surprises for either of us. I am additionally comfortable with senior dogs who need calm over chaos and dogs with specific routines or sensitivities. I ask for: honest answers on the intake form and a quick meet-and-greet before boarding or sitting bookings. Pet care isn't something I fit around a busy schedule, it is the priority when I have a booking. I work from home, which means dogs in my care aren't left alone for long stretches during the day. Walks, feeding, rest, and outdoor time follow your dog's natural routine as closely as possible, not mine. I keep bookings small so I'm never stretched across too many dogs at once. My home is calm, dog-proofed, and already shared with 2 dogs of my own, so incoming dogs arrive into a settled environment. Before any boarding or sitting booking I use a detailed intake form covering health, behavior, feeding, and emergency contacts, plus a meet-and-greet to make sure it's a good fit. I use a signed agreement with every client. If something feels off with a dog during a stay such as appetite, energy, behavior, I notice and I communicate that. Owners hear from me with updates; they don't have to chase me for them.

“Charlie had amazing time with Carolina. She was taking pictures and sending updates all day. I recommend this sitter, your dog will be in very good hands!”

“Rico had a great time with Leonardo and Giulia. They are so enthusiastic and kind. I will gladly ask them again when I need a place for Rico to stay”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m super happy with Shamira! She took such wonderful and loving care of my two dogs, Gini and Specki, during their daycare stay. 🐶❤️ You can immediately tell that she genuinely loves dogs and is very caring and reliable. I especially appreciated that Shamira kept me updated throughout the day and regularly sent me little updates. It was so reassuring to know that Gini and Specki were doing well, and I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. 😊 They both clearly felt very happy and comfortable with her. Thank you so much for taking such great care of them! We’ll definitely be back and I can absolutely recommend Shamira to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. 🐾❤️”

Over: I have been surrounded by pets since I was a child. Growing up with both a cat and a dog, I learned early on how to read their different "languages." One of my proudest achievements was successfully socialising my cat and dog to live in harmony, a process that required a lot of patience, calm energy, and an understanding of animal boundaries. Beyond my own pets, I have years of experience walking my relatives' dogs. Whether it’s a high-energy pup who needs to run or a shy dog who needs a gentle leader, I am comfortable adapting to different personalities. I’m not just a "sitter", I’m someone who genuinely enjoys the bond that comes from a long walk and a good play session. Im a 20-year-old student living in Almere. Because my studies allow for a very flexible schedule, I have plenty of free time and energy to dedicate to your furry friends. I’m currently saving up for my tuition, and since I can’t have a dog of my own right now due to occasional travel, pet sitting is the perfect way for me to share my home and heart with animals! I live right near Oostvaarders Station, which is a dream location for dogs! We are minutes away from incredible green spaces and the edges of the Oostvaardersplassen. My "adventure walks" take place in these expansive, quiet areas where your dog can truly explore. Also my neighborhood is peaceful and pet-friendly, with plenty of room to roam away from heavy city traffic. To ensure the highest level of safety and care, I only host one pet at a time. They will have my undivided attention for cuddles, play, and supervision. Safety & Communication Safety is my priority. I always use a leash during walks unless we are in a securely fenced-in area. I know how much you’ll miss your pet, so I love sending regular "pupdates" with photos and videos of our day so you can see how much fun they’re having! I only accept vaccinated pets to keep everyone safe and healthy. I can't wait to meet your companion and give them a fun, stress-free stay!

“Amazing, warm person who knows how to deal with animals. Highly recommend to everyone who is looking for a professionalism. Will be back for sure.”

“Vera was incredibly helpful we needed last minute doggy day care for our pup. I would highly recommend her services”

Asta J.

“Buddy is meestal wat terughoudend bij nieuwe mensen, maar was hier snel op zn plek. Na een meet en greet bezoek was hij heel enthousiast toen we er weer langskwamen. Top”

Hans D.

“Michelle took a great care of Lucky! She provided a lot of details, and Lucky was clearly happy and comfortable with her. I would definitely let Lucky with her again!”

Over: I’ve grown up around cats and dogs since I was a child and have always loved caring for animals. I currently have my own cats and dog back home in Sri Lanka, so caring for pets has been a natural part of my life. I’m new to professional pet sitting in the Netherlands, but I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m available to give your dog or cat the attention, companionship, exercise, and care they need throughout the day. I’m happy to follow their usual routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my priority. I’ll provide a calm, clean, and caring environment and carefully follow your instructions about feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and other routines. I’ll be patient and attentive to your pet’s personality and needs, and I’ll keep you updated so you can feel reassured while you’re away.

Over: 🐶 Over mij Hoi! Ik ben Emily, een enthousiaste en zorgzame hondenliefhebber. Ik heb zelf 15 jaar een hond gehad en pas regelmatig op de honden van vrienden, dus ik ben gewend aan honden met verschillende karakters, energielevels en behoeftes. Ik vind het heerlijk om met honden op pad te gaan, te spelen, te knuffelen en ze vooral een fijne en gezellige tijd te bezorgen! 🐾 Wat ik aanbied Uitlaten Een lekkere wandeling waarbij jouw hond alle tijd krijgt om te snuffelen, ontdekken en energie kwijt te kunnen. De duur en intensiteit stem ik graag af op wat jouw hond gewend is. Dagopvang bij mij thuis Je hond is van harte welkom om gezellig een dag bij mij te komen. Ik werk doordeweeks flexibel en kan mijn hondoppas goed combineren met mijn werk. Mijn hondenvriendje mag in principe zelfs mee naar kantoor, dus als jouw hond het leuk vindt, kan hij/zij gezellig met mij mee. Logeren – dag & nacht Ook voor een nachtje (of meerdere!) is jouw hond welkom bij mij. Ik zorg ervoor dat hij/zij zich zo comfortabel mogelijk voelt en probeer zoveel mogelijk het normale ritme van thuis aan te houden. 🐕 Mijn beschikbaarheid Ik ben doordeweeks eigenlijk vrijwel altijd beschikbaar en ook in het weekend kan er veel. Omdat ik flexibel kan omgaan met waar ik werk, kan ik goed rekening houden met verschillende opvangmomenten. Ik vind het belangrijk om vooraf even kennis te maken met jou en je hond, zodat we kunnen kijken of er een goede klik is. Ik leer graag kennen wat jouw hond fijn vindt, waar hij/zij behoefte aan heeft en waar ik rekening mee moet houden. Ik kijk ernaar uit om jouw hond te leren kennen en er een gezellige tijd van te maken! 🐾❤️ Currently working full time but I can always bring your dog to the office with me. I walk a lot, in the morning, afternoon and evening. I have an apartment without garden but I often go to the park when i have to dog sit, I love being outside so that’s a good thing for your pet :)

Over: Many of my friends and neighbours come to me for pet sitting - dogs and cats. I send them pictures every day, and the owners often say that their pets look so happy with me!! I'm gentle while firm, and will help your little animal stick to the rules and training, while giving them so much love that they deserve. I also have experience taking care of rabbits, guinea pigs, and parakeets. I work from home fully, so very flexible with my schedule and open to adapting to the needs of your little one. A typical schedule - 08:00 - a morning leg stretch; 12:00 - a bit of running in the neighbourhood park; 18:00 - a digestive walk to the lush dog park; 22:00 - a chill evening stroll. I have a big enough apartment for 3~5 animals, and they'll have plenty of space to run around! Your little animal will be allowed on furniture and the whole apartment, but not on the bed

Over: Two Dalmatians, a chihuahua, a Pomeranian and three mutts were my siblings growing up. I took care of them through every vet visit, may it be grooming days, sick days, or the few times they’ve given birth to puppies! I currently work part time so I am mostly at home and can do check-ins or walks, this is updated on my Rover calendar. I stay alert on walks and during home-sitting with pets. Care instructions for your little one will be carefully followed and depending on your preference, I can send updates throughout the sitting.

“Pablo is een fantastische oppas! Hij was erg lief naar mijn hond en heeft me meerdere keren updates gestuurd met foto’s en filmpjes. Hij heeft een ruime woning met genoeg ruimte voor mijn hond om rond te lopen. Zijn vriendin en hij waren de hele dag thuis dus er was continu iemand om Bowser gezelschap te houden. Ik raad Pablo zeker aan!”

Over: I’ve had dogs since I was young and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. I currently have a 30 kg Goldendoodle, Willow, whom I’ve spent the past two years intensively training as my service dog. Through this, I’ve gained lots of experience with obedience, consistency, positive reinforcement, routines, and understanding dog behavior. I’m also very comfortable with larger, energetic dogs and providing plenty of exercise, structure, and, of course, cuddles! 🐾 I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and am around throughout most of the day. Dogs in my care get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I normally take Willow on three longer walks and two shorter walks each day, so your dog can easily join our routine. I’m also happy to adjust my schedule to your dog’s usual walking, feeding, and sleeping routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. 🐾 Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure any dog staying with us feels comfortable around her. Since I work from home, dogs are rarely left alone and get plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day. Dogs are treated like part of the family in our home, they’re welcome on the furniture (clean paws permitting!) and can sleep in my bedroom. I follow each owner’s routines and rules closely and will always take the time to help your dog feel safe, relaxed, and at home. And obviously will send pictures throughout the day of your pup; as a dog owner, that’s what I’d want as well!

“Maria Teresa was great at communicating at all times and I received many updates of Hector during his stay. She was so sweet with him! He came back home feeling very calm. Thank you, Maria Teresa!”

Valeria R.

“Caoimhe and Alex took great care of Charlie. He got along really well with their 9 month old toy poodle, Waffles. They took him for several short pee breaks during the day which we really appreciated since it is quite hot out to do longer walks today. They also kept us well informed throughout the day and shared plenty of cute photo and videos of Charlie and Waffles. Thank you both!”

Over: Ik ben altijd opgegroeid met verschillende honden, bouviers, dwergschauzers en heb goed overwicht om ze in toom te houden indien nodig. Ik wandel graag en ben graag buiten te vinden. Ik werk fulltime, maar ik werk veel vanaf huis dus ondertussen kan ik jouw trouwe viervoeter ook bel aandacht geven. Ik ben altijd met een hond om me heen geweest en het lijkt me enig om jouw hond de aandacht te geven die het nodig heeft! We hebben een grote achtertuin waarin jouw trouwe viervoeter lekker buiten kan spelen. Naast ons huis is een groot grasveld waar hij of zij lekker los kan gaan!

“Heel betrokken, zorgzaam en mega lief voor onze hond. Heldere communicatie, flexibel in de planning, zeker voor herhaling vatbaar!”
