Kattenoppas in Castricum

Over: I've had pets all my life, and I love taking care of and being with them! I intend to give a lot of attention, affection and special care to your pet companion!!! I'm from Brazil, and I live in Leiden as an aupair. My working hours are from 15h until 20h. all week, and I'm always free on weekends. I'm available to help at any time I'm not working. 😊 I always like to prepare meals for the Pets 2-3x a day, water throughout the day, lots of play, affection and walking and walks to spend energy! 😅

“Leo was very nice for my cat Sammy. She kept me informed, sent pictures and liked Sammy very much. So good to know that your cat is in good hands. I hope she can take care of Sammy another time!!”

Over: I bring a calm presence, genuine curiosity, and strong intuition that help animals feel safe and seen. I treat every pet as an individual and adjust to their unique needs and personality—whether that means playful energy, training patience, or simply being present and calm. I’ve cared for up to three dogs at the same time, each with their own challenges and special needs. This experience has taught me how to stay focused, balanced, and responsive in dynamic situations. I also have experience with administering medication and handling pets who require extra attention. I’m physically active and happy to take long walks or go for runs with high-energy dogs. At the same time, I’m attentive and gentle with older pets who need a slower pace and more care. My background as a massage therapist and actor has sharpened my sensitivity to body language and emotional cues, which helps me connect deeply with animals. I’m flexible, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Looking forward to hearing from you! Although I currently work full-time during the day, I’m available for pet care in the early mornings, evenings, and overnight. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, or stays outside regular office hours. I live in Wormerveer. I always take great care to ensure a safe and calm environment, whether I'm in your home or mine. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language and energy, and adapt my approach to keep them relaxed and secure. I build trust gradually and connect both with pets and owners on a personal level, so everyone feels at ease.

“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Laura to look after my beloved cats, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment we met, it was clear that Laura is a true animal lover. Throughout the entire pet-sitting period, Laura provided exceptional care and attention to my cats' every need. She followed all the instructions meticulously and went above and beyond to ensure my cats were comfortable and happy. I received regular updates and adorable photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while we were away. Not only were my cats well-fed and groomed, but she also enjoyed plenty of cuddle time. Laura took the time to understand my cats' personality and preferences, and it showed in the way they interacted with her. I highly recommend Laura to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and professional cat/dog-sitter. Her dedication and love for animals are truly exceptional, and I will definitely be hiring her again in the future. Thank you Laura!”

Over: I have been in love with dogs since I was 12 but I could never have mine so I love to take care of lovely dogs. I trust them more than humans. I will be quite flexible in the summer. Mainly not available on weekends and won't be in Amsterdam from the middle of a guest till the 5th of September I can not host the dog in my place but I am open to taking care of them in their places one of my best I is a vet so I always try to update myself in conversation with him.

Over: I grew up in La Pampa, Argentina with a childhood filled with dogs and cats, and my own beloved 6-year-old fox terrier, I have practiced my skills as an exceptional pet sitter since very young age. From playful games with the Kong to leisurely walks together, cuddles are always more than welcome. I understand the importance of providing love, attention, and exercise to furry companions. Trust me to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for your beloved pets while you're away. I work mostly from home so for me is easy to find time for them. Some days are an exception and I work on location so please pre-consult with me the days you have in mind. I am always alert to any circumstance that could put them in danger and I try to play with them as much as I can. I live in a studio that’s why I cant have medium/big dogs boarding.

Over: Als professioneel opgeleide hondenuitlaatservice en hondentrainer, geniet ik dagelijks van de vrolijke energie van honden, terwijl we samen mooie wandelingen maken door diverse buurten, parken en bossen. Het verzorgen en uitlaten van honden is bij privé uitlaatservice "De Hondenkenner" dagelijkse routine. We staan iedere dag klaar voor álle honden die wat extra ondersteuning, aandacht en begeleiding kunnen gebruiken. In de afgelopen jaren heb ik ontzettend veel ervaring op gedaan in het verzorgen en trainen van honden. Wellicht kan ik u helpen met het aanleren van nieuwe of het verbeteren van bestaande vaardigheden van uw hond.

“all great with Manali 💗💗💗”

Over: I’ve been lucky to care for two playful, energetic dogs and a loving cat back home, who were like family to me. I adored spending time with them, whether it was going on walks, playing games, or just cuddling. Being far from them now, I miss their joy and companionship every day. That’s why I’m so passionate about pet sitting—it gives me the chance to connect with and care for amazing pets again. With my experience and love for animals, I’ll ensure your furry friends are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away! I'm currently studying BBA in Amsterdam and working part-time. Therefore I would like to spend my free time as a lovely pet sitter anywhere close to my place in beverwijk and in Amsterdam if I'm close by. My neighborhood is very calm and peaceful with several areas for walking and playdates with a sweet pet. It's spacious and we exciting to go around the neighborhood in a lovely day...

Over: I have many years of experience house-sitting for friends and family, primarily caring for dogs, cats, and birds. In addition, I’ve looked after my own cats, fish, rabbits, and plants. As I am studying part-time remotely, my schedule is highly flexible, allowing me to have plenty of free time to dedicate to your pets. This flexibility enables me to adapt to their routine and provide consistent, high-quality care to ensure their well-being. When caring for pets in a pet owner's home, I respect their environment by following their routines and instructions carefully. I make sure to keep the home clean and safe, ensuring the pets feel secure in familiar surroundings. Open communication with pet owners is key to maintaining trust and ensuring their pets receive the best care.
