Hondenopvang De Bilt

Over: I’ve had pets all my life and have always had a deep love for animals. Back home, I have two 🐶 (age 13 and 8) and two 🐱 so I’m very comfortable caring for both younger and older pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ve also looked after dogs on multiple occasions, from regular walks to overnight stays, and I really enjoy getting to know each pet and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re away from their owners. My boyfriend and I have a spacious home with a big garden, giving dogs plenty of space to relax, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. We’re happy to welcome both dogs and cats for short or longer stays, whether it’s just one night or several days, depending on our availability. What your pet can expect: 🏡 A spacious, comfortable home 🌳 A big garden to enjoy 🐕 Walks and outdoor time 🎾 Playtime and attention 🍖 Meals according to their usual routine ❤️ Lots of love, cuddles, and companionship 😴 Plenty of time to rest Our goal is not just to look after your pet, but to get to know them so hopefully we can become your sitters of trust for your furry friend. I can care for dogs throughout the day on weekdays (especially Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays as I work remotely), as well throughout the whole weekend. I’m also happy to provide overnight stays, either for one night or multiple nights depending on my schedule. For cats, I can either visit them at your home or, when suitable, they can stay with us at our place on the same available days. For me, caring for a pet is about more than just feeding them and taking them for walks. I like to spend time with them, understand their personality, have fun with them, ensuring they are safe and feel attended. I take care of your pet the way I’d want someone to care for my own!!

Over: I’m a dog lover based in Utrecht . I do have some experience as a dog sitter but only to cats and dogs from friends for around 1/2 years, I’m excited to learn and grow with each opportunity. I am planning to adopt an own dog soon, so I’m eager to care for and spend time with furry friends as I build my skills. I’m enthusiastic, responsible, and dedicated to making sure every dog feels happy and loved. Looking forward to meeting your pup and providing them with the best care! I am working from home 2 days per week and weekends pretty much in the area too. I prefer to host but I’m also fine with visiting the dog at the owner place I’m flexible on going to the dog owner place or hosting at home, we live in front of the Dom in a 80m2 apartamenr

Over: I worked with my family dog in therapy certification, agility training, and basic training like heel, play dead, etc (she is my pride and joy)! I have also walked dogs in the neighborhood and pet sat for a list of family and friends. I have a lot of availability right now and open to routine long or short walks, or just cuddles! I live near prospect park and happy to go there as many times as needed! I work from home now and live near a park with a lot of availability for walks. I do live on the 4th floor of a walk up - happy to carry small dogs if needed. I can also accommodate a crate if needed. Happy to also stay in home with the pup - I have done this before and very comfortable taking care of a place and letting the pup feel safe at home!

“Onze Jack Russell Jip heeft het geweldig naar haar zin gehad. Laura en haar vriend hebben haar veel aandacht gegeven en spelletjes gedaan, maar wel rekening gehouden met de beperkingen van een 14-jaar oude dame. Laura hield ons goed op de hoogte via Whatsapp met leuke foto's. We gaan Jip zeker nog eens langsbrengen -:)”

Over: Wij zorgen al sinds jongs af aan voor honden. Met veel liefde en plezier. We hebben zelf momenteel geen hond, en zijn daarom maar al te graag oppas voor jouw hond. Tamara werkt 4 dagen thuis en Kees 2 a 3. Genoeg tijd om een hond veel aandacht te geven en lekker een stuk te gaan wandelen. We wonen in een rustige straat en hebben een omheinde tuin. Geen grote tuin, maar toch lekker om even naar buiten te kunnen. In de buurt is er mogelijkheid om langs het water te lopen of het groen op te zoeken.

“So grateful to these two for how well they took care of my fur child. They’re caring, prompt with communication and just genuinely lovely people! I’d absolutely take them up to look after Lumos again.”

Over: Vanaf jongs af aan ben ik opgegroeid met honden en katten, wat mijn liefde voor dieren alleen maar heeft versterkt. Ik heb verschillende puppycursussen gevolgd om ervoor te zorgen dat ik goed voorbereid ben op de zorg en training van jonge honden. Mijn vriend en ik dromen ervan om ooit een eigen hond te hebben, dat is helaas momenteel nog niet mogelijk. Daarom zou het fantastisch zijn om op een hond te mogen passen en zo onze liefde en zorg te kunnen delen met een viervoeter. Als u het leuk vindt stuur ik graag een update met fotos en videos zodat u op de hoogte blijft van de avonturen en ontdekkingen van uw hond. Ik kijk ernaar uit! Ik werk parttime dus op de dagen van beschikbaarheid heb ik de volle aandacht voor uw hond. Ik hou ook enorm van wandelen en ga graag met uw hond op ontdekkingstocht. Ik woon samen met mijn vriend, die ook erg van honden houdt in een appartement met balkon en lift. Ik hou ervan om meermaals per dag te gaan wandelen, spelen, knuffelen met uw hond.

“Maria is always so friendly and energetic! She absolutely loves Declan and is always excited to see him☺️She takes very good care of him and makes sure he is played with alot and walked and her dog Noki is super cute and Declan and him get along very well”

“Kon op voorhand een keer met Onyx langskomen om te kijken. Onyx voelde zich direct op zijn gemak en Guusje kon goed met hem overweg. Alles is volgens afspraak verlopen.”

Over: I grew up around all kinds of animals (cats, dogs, bunnies and duckies) so l love every type of furry friend! Since I moved away from Greece, I miss every day my family dog but I find joy in taking care my friend's and colleague's pets while they are away and I love every second of it. I work hybrid, so my schedule is quite flexible with most days working remotely at home. Always happy to have a furry company to spend the day together and going for walks during my lunch break. I don't own other pets so my attention will be focused on treating your pet as part of the family. There is plenty of space for a bed, toys and all things to make the transition as smooth as possible.

“Thank you for taking such great care of our Archie! He thoroughly enjoyed his time in your home.”

Ken P.

“Fantastic care. Daily pics and vids of how they were doing, really gave you a good feeling of how loved they were. The doggies have enjoyed their stay. Would love to keep coming back in the future.”

“Ontzettend fijne oppas! Boele heeft een geweldige tijd gehad. Mylene kijkt echt goed naar onze hond en ziet wat hij nodig heeft of checkt bij ons. Zodat Boele zich optimaal op zijn gemak voelt. De 2e keer (na de proefdag) liepen we haar straat binnen en ging hij al kwispelend voor haar deur zitten. Nou dat zegt genoeg!!”

Claire M.

“Charlotte and Will were the perfect sitters for our dog Kia, as well as very accommodating with plans and keeping us updated with photos. I could see immediately that Kia was relaxed and happy at their home with their family. She got lots of nice walks in the forest, comfy spots to chill, and warm attention. Would be so happy to book again when we’re away!”

Over: Animals are one of my greatest loves in life. I have my own cat, who is currently living with my sister in South Africa while I arrange to bring him over to join me in the Netherlands. Over the years, I’ve regularly looked after friends’ pets and cared for animals while house sitting. I also spent three months living with a friend who had two dogs, and during that time I became one of their primary carers. I loved taking them for walks, feeding them, spending time with them and making sure their needs were taken care of. I’m very patient, loving and attentive, and I understand that every animal has their own personality, routines and boundaries. I take their health and wellbeing seriously and will always follow an owner’s instructions carefully. Most of all, I absolutely love being around animals. I’m the person who notices every cat I pass and gets excited about every dog I meet! Looking after someone’s pet isn’t just a job to me. It’s something that brings me great joy. I have a very flexible work schedule and work from home most days, with the option to work from home whenever needed. This means I can spend plenty of time with your pet and adapt my routine to their individual needs. I usually go for walks, go to the gym a couple of times a week and pop out for groceries, so when I do leave home it’s generally only for a few hours at a time. I’m also very happy to adapt this depending on how much companionship, exercise or attention your pet needs. I love walking and have great access to parks nearby, so dogs who enjoy getting outside will have plenty of opportunities to explore! My first priority is always to follow your guidance and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. You know your animal best, so I’ll pay close attention to their feeding, exercise, medication, boundaries, house rules and anything else that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I live alone in a calm, peaceful home in a quiet neighbourhood. I occasionally have a friend visit, but otherwise it’s a very relaxed environment with plenty of attention available for your pet. I have a balcony, but access would always be managed according to your instructions. Indoor cats will stay safely indoors, and I won’t take unnecessary risks with any animal in my care. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their wellbeing comes first. I’m very happy to adapt my routine around them and give you updates so you can relax knowing they’re safe, comfortable and getting plenty of love.

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.

“Jiayi was een hele lieve oppas voor onze bulldog Baas! Het hele huis was al voorbereid toen we kwamen kennis maken. Communicatie ging snel en het was allemaal heel flexibel. Super fijn en sowieso voor herhaling vatbaar 😊!”

Laura P.

“We are so happy we found Tatiana on this website! The communication was open and friendly. The stay went well and smoothly. We had a really good break with zero worries. And the dog is calm and happy afterward.”

Ilya P.

“We hebben onze Bella bij Christa laten logeren dat is heel goed gegaan Heel blij met Christa een lieve en vriendelijke oppas Eind augustus gaat Bella weer logeren. Ik zou haar zeker aanraden bij kennissen”

Esther v.

“We’ve left out Lab Saga and our french bulldog Luna with Monique, Sam and their lovely dog Charlie for our weekend away. Since it was our first boarding experience we didn’t know what to expect. But Monique offered a first meet and great and after that it all went smoothly. She has sent picture updates and answered all our questions while we were away. Saga and Luna seem to enjoy their stay as well. I would definitely write to her again in the future. Thanks for everything 🐾”
