“I highly recommend Azize as a dog sitter; she took amazing care of Dora and treated her like family! Throughout the entire stay, Azize kept me fully updated with regular messages and lovely updates. I could see that Dora felt incredibly comfortable, perfectly fed, and deeply loved with her. Azize organized great walks and fun playtime, which perfectly helped Dora forget that she was away from home. Dora came back happy, well-rested, and wonderfully showered with affection – we will definitely choose Azize again!”

Over: We recently moved to Amsterdam from Minneapolis, USA. I am a dog lover for sure. Today I have an 8 month Yorkie who loves playing with other puppies. I enjoy teaching her new tricks and taking her for walks for her to explore the world. Would love to take care of another dog as it would make me and my puppy happy. I take care of my own dog, therefore taking care of another dog will be quite easy. I do frequent bathroom breaks and walks to help with energy. I have a 2 bedroom spacious apartment with a balcony with a peepad. The are I live in is walk friendly and super safe to walk the dogs.

“Cristina and Guillaume were wonderful pet sitters. Aki stayed with them for five nights, and he was happy and comfortable throughout his stay. We really appreciated that they took him on plenty of walks, keeping him active, and they spent lots of time playing with him as well. Major highlight for us was how frequently (3+ times/day) they kept us updated. After every walk, they sent us messages and lots of photos, so we always knew how Aki was doing. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Cristina even sewed a couple of Aki’s toys after he destroyed them! They took excellent care of Aki, and it was clear that he felt completely at home with them. We would happily leave Aki with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter🙌🏻”

“Ana and her partner were amazing sitters for my baby girl! I got photos and videos twice a day just like I asked, and they took Emma on long play sessions, walks, and even a visit to the tulip fields. She looked so happy in every video. I’d definitely recommend them and will be booking again. Thanks so much, Ana!”

Over: Hi, I’m Julia! I’m 27 years old, born and raised on a Swedish farm and now studying a Masters in Communication Science at UvA. I’m fluent in English, Dutch and Swedish (I can teach your dog some ;) ) Ever since I can remember I’ve been a big fan of dogs. I’ve had dogs around me my whole life, I grew up with a Golden Retriever and a Rhodesian Ridgeback, and have in my later teens helped raised two Kangals. I have a lot of understanding and respect for dogs, both big and small. Lately I’m sitting my brothers Cane Corso Enzo, he is a puppy who needs a lot of training, and I’m up for the challenge! Apart from my experience and love for animals, I am an active person who walks a lot, I love being in nature and I would say I have a lot of patience. Whether it’s an older dog who needs a slower pace, or an active dog who needs a long power walk, I’m up for it! Since I am a student at the UvA, some mornings and afternoons are blocked out, but also some days are totally free for me. I’ll be honest and say that my schedule might change every 2 months with new courses, but mostly I am busy 3 days of the week. Still, everyday I stay active by going on a walk in Amsterdamse bos, going to the gym or biking. I love to cook and to relax with my boyfriend at home (he is also crazy about dogs!) I live in an apartment of roughly 95 m2, with a big living room and a large balcony (with a serious fence). We keep it clean with fresh air flowing. We live 3 minutes walking from the Amsterdamse Bos, it’s a national treasure and a dog heaven! My boyfriend and I live together have the same philosophy: nobody has died from a dog on the couch. But the of course, if your dog is not used to being on furniture, we will respect his/her boundaries ;) I will be as strict or relaxed as the dog needs me to be, I am a flexible dog sitter.

Over: With years of experience caring for pets, I provide personalized and attentive services to meet each pet's unique needs (dogs, cats, rabbits). Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, or training, I ensure every pet feels loved, secure, and happy. Your furry friend will be in great hands! I live right by the Amstel River, so it's perfect for walks with your pet. I work remotely, so I have plenty of time to take care of your animal and go on walks during the week and weekends. I’m pretty active myself, so your pet will get lots of love and exercise! With me, pets are treated like part of the family. They have access to cozy spaces and outdoor play areas, and plenty of attention and affection. I also follow any specific care instructions provided by the owners to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well-cared.

Over: I’ve taken care of my cat since I was 14 years old. Also, I’ve taken care of my cousin’s and aunt’s dogs whenever they were going on vacation. Already three years since I started to take care of other dogs and cats here in Amsterdam. I am currently working full time at a hotel. I have different shifts during the week, such a as morning and late, but I can be flexible if needed to take care of a furry friend. To take care of my furry friends, I play with them a lot, I like to talk to them, pet them and also going for a walk, give them treats from time to time, if the parents have a nice yard I love to play catch the ball and never get tired of it.

Over: I've been surrounded by dogs for most of my life. I grew up with two wonderful dogs a Bernese Mountain Dog and, more recently, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, who is still living happily with my family in Brazil. Since moving to Amsterdam, I've really missed having animals around, so taking care of dogs here feels like a natural way to continue doing something I genuinely enjoy. Besides caring for my own dogs, I've looked after my cousin's cat on two separate occasions for around 2 3 weeks each time, as well as my sister-in-law's dog. These experiences have taught me the importance of respecting each pet's personality and routine, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I live with my girlfriend, who is also a big animal lover, and we both have flexible schedules, which means your dog will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day. We live directly across from a beautiful park and the Sloterplas lake, making it the perfect location for long walks, playtime, and outdoor adventures. Whether your dog loves playing fetch, exploring the park, or simply relaxing on the sofa with plenty of cuddles, I'll make sure they feel at home and receive the same care and affection I'd give my own pets. My name is Pietro, and I live with my girlfriend Susana. We both have flexible schedules, and on weekdays there is always one of us at home, so pets are rarely alone for long periods of time. Our daily routine allows us to give pets plenty of attention, company, and care throughout the day. We can easily adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means regular walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply spending time together. On weekends, Pietro and Susana enjoy taking longer walks in the morning or evening, especially around Sloterplas Park, where pets can enjoy fresh air and explore. We genuinely love having animals as part of our routine and making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while they are with us. I want every pet to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they are with us. My girlfriend and I are both big animal lovers, and because we have flexible schedules, there is almost always someone at home to keep them company. We live in a comfortable two story home with a secure balcony, giving pets a safe and welcoming space to relax. Our home is a calm environment where they can feel comfortable, play, and enjoy plenty of attention throughout the day. We truly enjoy having pets around whether it's going for a walk, playing with their favorite toys, or simply relaxing together on the sofa. We love creating a place where pets feel like they are part of the family. When caring for a pet, we always respect their routine and personality. We make sure they have fresh water, food at their usual times, a clean space, and lots of attention and affection. We also love sending photos and updates, so owners can feel reassured and connected while they are away. Our goal is simple: to make your pet feel happy, safe, and loved.
