Persoonlijke verzorging voor je hond of kat: Almere

“Dank voor de goede zorgen voor Frouke. Op de foto’s en filmpjes die we tussen door hebben ontvangen is zo goed te zien dat ze het naar haar zin heeft gehad! Een fijne omgeving en wat zijn jullie lief voor voor Frouke. Dank!”

Tjitske K.

“We left Watson with Julia for the first time, and we're a bit anxious on how he will adjust. But Julia made his stay and our entire experience seamless and very comfortable. She took very good care of him, attended to his needs as he was on medication. I would really recommend her for your fur babies.”

Sakshi G.

“It was my first time using this website to let Agata take care of my Birman cats, Momo and Taro. They were both nervous, but both Agata and her boyfriend did an amazing job to let them feel comfortable. You can easily tell that they really like animals and I was being updated reguraly with how they were doing (and also send pictures) Thank you so much!!”

Susan R.

“Lieve oppas voor onze hond! We waren in de buurt op vakantie en wilden een dagje Walibi en daarvoor gebruik gemaakt van de oppas door Elvira. Fijn geregeld en fijn contact, een aanrader!”

Anke D.

“Nastia was great! She was very professional, looked very well after our little one and made sure we were updated at any time. We could not have wished for anything more! ❤️”

Over: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 16, including help with street cats’ delivering. I also took care of indoor cats and dogs from friends, family and colleagues. Currently my boyfriend and I have a two-year old Maine Coon and three chinchillas (4+yr) at home. Most of time I work from home so it’s convenient for me to spend time with the little ones. I’m very patient, trustful and friendly with pets. I’m currently working from home except every Wednesday , so I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I’m available for boarding on most weekdays after 2pm. I also don’t mind early mornings or evening visits if needed. Spending time with animals is honestly one of the best parts of my day, so I’m always happy to fit them into my routine! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with a bright living room where cats and dogs can safely play and explore. I also have a friendly, well-socialized cat who love making new friends. If your pet prefers their own space, I can absolutely crate them or keep them separated when needed. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and stress-free at all time!

Over: Hi, I’m Joey, Chinese and just move from Singapore to Netherlands. I love dogs and enjoy spending time outdoors. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, relaxing at home, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust with your family member, and I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 欢迎找我遛狗！我很喜欢狗狗，我自己也有一条狗在中国，我即将在荷兰养一只自己的狗，在此之前，先开放我的狗狗陪伴服务❤️ I’m currently having career break, so I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your dog company, I’ll make sure they receive the care they need. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s usual routine whenever possible. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I’ll always follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding, walking, exercise. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly apartment where your dog will receive plenty of attention and companionship. During walks, I always prioritize safety by keeping dogs leashed unless instructed otherwise in a secure area. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

“All went well. It's good to have a contact when needed a stay for our dog Bobbie. Thank you again”

“Zoro seems quite after coming from from her house. He is very high energy puppy. It seems he missed her as he definitely had enough attention he wanted and from video she shared he was happy playing.”

Yogesh L.

“Onze hond Tipsy heeft een heel fijne kerst gehad bij Emalia en haar gezin, zou haar zeker weer vragen voor ons schatje te zorgen tijdens vakanties of weekendjes weg!”

April B.

“Marjolein heeft heel goed voor Elijah gezorgd. We hebben dagelijks contact gehad en als er iets was kon ik met haar overleggen wat nou het beste is om te doen voor Elijah in deze situatie. Erg fijn! Ze heeft hem ook dagelijks een pilletje gegeven, dat was geen punt. Fijn om te weten dat je kat in goede handen is terwijl je in het buitenland verblijft. We zijn super dankbaar!”

Jeanine H.

“Xiaobing is helemaal fantastisch. De houdt echt van katten, dat kun je merken. Onze kat heeft veel liefde van haar ontvangen. Daarnaast deed ze haar taken heel zorgvuldig en professioneel.”

Taco S.

“Had to go out of the country for an emergency and luckily Rania was able to quickly step in and take care of my cats. Got daily updates so I knew my cats were happy and safe and when I got back, I got back to a very happy household. Thanks again Rania!”

Over: As a dedicated cat lover, I provide personalized care for your furry friend while you're away. From administering medications to deep-cleaning litter trays, I ensure your cat is comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. I’m experienced with cats of all personalities and will make sure your pet feels loved and safe until you return.

Over: Your cat will stay in a calm and quiet environment with very little noise. We have a small bunny in one of the rooms, so we naturally keep the house peaceful—no loud music or anything that could cause stress. This makes it the perfect place for cats to feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable.

Over: Hi! I’m Vanessa, and thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! Cats have always had a special place in my heart. I love their unique personalities and the trust they build when they feel safe and comfortable with someone. Originally from Brazil, I’ve been living in the Netherlands for the past six years. I now live in Apeldoorn after spending three years in Amsterdam. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for many wonderful cats, and I understand that each one has their own way of communicating, their own preferences, and their own pace when it comes to building trust. My priority is to provide personalized care while respecting their boundaries and helping them feel safe and relaxed in their own environment. I adapt my approach to what makes each cat most comfortable, whether that means playtime, gentle attention, quiet companionship, or giving them the space they need. I also make sure their familiar routine is maintained as much as possible while you are away. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter maintenance, medication if needed, and providing companionship in a way that suits their personality. My goal is to build a trusting relationship and make their time without you as calm and positive as possible. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved pet and your home. That’s why I treat every animal and every home with kindness, respect, and responsibility. I’m also happy to send photos and updates, so you can relax knowing your cat is safe and well cared for. A few details about my services: • I offer cat sitting visits locally around Apeldoorn, where I can easily travel by bike. • For locations outside Apeldoorn, I offer house sitting wherever the location is reasonably accessible by public transport. • For bookings that require travel by public transport, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered by the pet owner. I’m always happy to discuss the expected travel costs with you in advance. • I always like to arrange a short meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, meet your cat, and make sure we are a great match. For meet-ups outside my local area, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered. A quick note about Rover’s pricing: Sometimes the app applies additional charges for extra pets. I’m always happy to discuss these costs and find a solution that feels fair for everyone. If you think we might be a good match, I’d love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your cat! Warm regards, Vanessa

Over: Ik zorg al voor allerlei soorten katten sinds mijn tiende. Mijn buren, vrienden en familie vertrouwen erop dat ik op hun huisdieren pas, ze voer en ermee speel... 25 woorden zoals

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!

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.

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.

“Ale was amazing with our dog, Willow. She took her on several walks, kept me updated throughout the day & even took her to the park. When I picked Willow up, I felt like she was sad to leave Ale, which is the best sign ever. We’ll bring Willow back any time to spend the day with Ale!”

Jan Willem L.

“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!”

Maja S.

“Mathilda was an excellent puppy-sitter. She was great with communication and demonstrated professional skill with the puppy/other dogs, clearly understanding their behaviours. Leaving our Pup with Mathilda and the other dogs for the day made our whole day easier, with great updates throughout the day. We would book again.”

Over: Jarenlang honden gehad bij mijn ouders, veel ervaring. Ook met puppys! Ik vind het leuk om veel te wandelen, op te letten op een hond. Je hond is geheel vrij bij mij en ik geef hem/haar de aandacht en liefde die het verdient! Alle dagen van de week beschikbaar behalve op de woensdag. En in het weekend op de zaterdag en zondag zal waarschijnlijk beschikbaar gaan komen. Ook met de feestdagen zijn er mogelijkheden maar dan graag even in overleg. Ik woon alleen in een ruim en rustig appartement van 113m² en ook een grote woonkamer, waar de hond lekker kan ontspannen/chillen. Daarnaast een ruime hal als hij/zij een eigen kussentje heeft kan liggen. Daarnaast heb ik 2 balkons die volledig omheind zijn. Lekker dicht bij het Lumiére Park, een fijne plek waar altijd veel hondjes te vinden zijn. Dus dat is een heerlijke uitval basis! Een fijne, vertrouwde omgeving dus voor honden die graag buiten zijn én een warm thuis willen voelen.

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!

“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: I'm new to Rover, but dogs have already been part of my routine for a while. My parents look after a friend's dog once a week, and I often join in, walks, feeding, playtime, the whole thing. I know how to help a dog feel settled and comfortable even outside their usual home, and I bring that same patience and attention to every dog I care for. I'll follow your instructions closely and keep you posted throughout, and while I'm new to the platform, I'm not new to dogs, I'd love the chance to prove that to you and your pup :) I work from home most days, so I'm around and available almost all the time, the only regular exception is Thursdays, when I'm out. I'm also quite active, which works out well: dogs get a proper walk, and if it's a cat keeping me company at my desk instead, that's just as good a day for me. I live in a small studio (36m²), but the area right outside is genuinely great for dogs, plenty of green space nearby. Happy to share more about the neighborhood once we're in touch. For cats, the studio itself is calm and quiet, which makes it an easy space to settle into.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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: Wij zijn twee echte hondenliefhebbers die graag voor jouw hond zorgen. Omdat ik momenteel tussen twee banen in zit, heb ik alle tijd en aandacht om jouw hond een fijne dag te bezorgen. Mijn vriend heeft ruim 10 jaar ervaring met honden en is opgegroeid met een hond vanaf zijn zevende. Daarnaast passen we regelmatig op het hondje van een vriendin. We wonen in Amsterdam, maar maken graag lange wandelingen in het Vondelpark of rijden naar een mooi natuurgebied voor extra avontuur. Bij ons krijgt jouw hond veel liefde, aandacht en beweging. Omdat ik momenteel tussen twee banen in zit, ben ik veel thuis en kan ik mijn dag volledig afstemmen op de behoeften van jouw hond. Dat betekent alle tijd voor wandelingen, spelen, knuffelen en de verzorging die jouw hond gewend is. Mijn vriend werkt fulltime, maar is ’s avonds en in het weekend ook graag betrokken. Samen zorgen we voor een rustige, liefdevolle en betrouwbare omgeving waarin jouw hond zich snel thuis zal voelen. Ik vind het belangrijk dat een hond zich veilig en op zijn gemak voelt. Daarom houd ik zoveel mogelijk de dagelijkse routine aan die hij of zij gewend is, zoals vaste wandelmomenten, etenstijden en eventuele medicatie. Er is volop tijd voor aandacht, spelen, rust en knuffels. Ik stem de verzorging altijd af op de wensen van het baasje, zodat jouw hond de zorg krijgt die hij of zij verdient.

“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”

Over: Als kind ben ik opgegroeid tussen de dieren en we hadden altijd honden. Die jarenlange ervaring heeft ervoor gezorgd dat ik dol ben op honden. Groot en klein! Ik hoop jouw hond een heerlijk verblijf te geven vol met fijne wandelingen, plezier en de nodige rust. Ik kijk er naar uit! Momenteel werk ik vanuit huis dus ik ben zeer flexibel. Soms moet ik de deur uit voor een afspraak maar over het algemeen veel thuis. Ik woon in een fijn ruim appartement waar veel plek is voor de hond. Ik woon aan een mooi park met een groot grasveld waar ik graag ga wandelen. Ook is het Vliegenbos niet ver weg, daar wandel ik graag naartoe.

Over: Hi, I’m Joey, Chinese and just move from Singapore to Netherlands. I love dogs and enjoy spending time outdoors. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, relaxing at home, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust with your family member, and I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 欢迎找我遛狗！我很喜欢狗狗，我自己也有一条狗在中国，我即将在荷兰养一只自己的狗，在此之前，先开放我的狗狗陪伴服务❤️ I’m currently having career break, so I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care throughout the day.

“Maria is extraordinarily kind and communicative and took great care of my rescue Costa for the day. It’s obvious she provides a safe and stable place for dogs with difficulties because there were none despite Costa being in a brand new environment at her home. She kept me posted and is consistently polite and I can’t wait to trust her again with sitting my Costa.”

Over: I grew up with pets (dogs and rodents) and have taken care of pets practically my whole life. 5 years ago, I took a wonderful boy called Charlie home from the shelter (you can see him in all of my pictures). He was already a bit older, and I was lucky to have him by my side for 4.5 years until he sadly passed away last October. I have a big heart for animals, and therefore miss taking care of a hairy friend! I have experience with taking care of both small and larger dogs, as well as senior dogs and dogs with medical needs. I recently started a PhD and am therefore not home during work days (mo-fr). This is why I currently am not in the position of adopting a dog myself, but would love to take care of dogs on the weekends when I am home. When taking care of a dog I adjust my routine to meet the needs of the dog. I try to suit the needs of the animal and respect their boundaries. If they prefer to be lazy or alone, I give them space, if they prefer interaction and play, I give them attention. I feed them and walk them as agreed with the owner.

Over: Hello! My name is Sandy, I’m 30 years old, a mother, and I truly understand the importance of care, attention, and responsibility in daily life. I am new to professional pet sitting, but I have always loved animals and enjoy spending time with them. I am caring, gentle, and responsible. My priority is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you are away. I am available Tuesday to Saturday from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Mondays and Sundays are usually not available, but occasional exceptions can be arranged in advance. I live in a spacious home with a large yard. The outdoor area is not fully enclosed, so pets will always be supervised when outside for their safety and comfort.

Over: Al van jongs af aan ben ik een groot dierenliefhebber. De komst van mijn eerste eigen hond was dan ook zeker een feestje. Januari vorig jaar mocht ik mijn eerste hondje verwelkomen, een Australian Shepherd mo genaamd Maeve. Met Maeve ben ik actief in een groot aantal sporten. Zo zijn wij bezig met agility, detectie, canicross, schapen drijven, trick training, Rally-O en obedience. Ook zijn wij regelmatig op show te vinden. Daarnaast heb ik ook de nodige kennis van lichaamstaal. Ik doe niets liever dan op pad zijn met mijn hond. Heerlijke boswandelingen of een korte trainingssessie, zolang er plezier is geniet ik ervan. Vanuit huis uit heb ik al meerdere jaren ervaring met verschillende dieren, waaronder katten, honden, paarden en knaagdieren (en sommige vogel soorten). Ook heb ik twee jaar in een dierenspeciaalzaak gewerkt waardoor ik een breed scala aan kennis heb. Vanwege extra tijd zoek ik een aantal viervoeters om gezellig mee op pad te gaan, of die wat extra aandacht thuis kunnen gebruiken. Neem vooral contact op om de mogelijkheden te bespreken. Ik ben op alle doordeweekse dagen overdag beschikbaar. Avonden in overleg. Ik bied mijn services aan in omgeving ‘t Gooi en omstreken. Verzorging van uw huisdier kunnen we in overleg helemaal op maat maken. Ik vind het belangrijk om voor ieder dier de tijd te nemen. Karakters van dieren zijn zo anders per dier en hebben vaak even nodig om zichzelf te uiten en op hun gemak te zijn. Daarom kijk ik graag naar ieder individueel dier en zijn of haar behoeftes.

“Rania was great with Layla. She was enthusiastic to play and walk with her and I felt so comfortable leaving Layla with Rania. I have already booked another session with Rania. I can recommend her to anyone!?”

Over: I'm a young professional that works from home and have some extra free time and LOVE caring for dogs. So this is the perfect opportunity for me and I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs on Rover, after graduating from undergrad I took up dog sitting and I have watched homes and pets while family is out of town since then. I am very flexible and reliable and would have a great time with your pet! Why I love dog sitting: I had a dog who I was extremely close with and since his passing I miss a dog's companionship. Because of school and work I'm not able to take care of a dog full time so in the meantime I would love to keep yours company! I’m currently working from home and on my own schedule so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and give them lots of attention! How I care for pets varies on the individual pup or cat. Every one of them have their own special needs so I will be sure to be informed and have notes on the stay before booking.

Over: Mijn liefde voor dieren is er al zo lang ik me kan herinneren. Ik ben opgegroeid met de goedzak Lester, een zwarte labrador en later kwam daar een vrolijke adoptiehond, Puca, uit Spanje bij. Zelf heb ik nu geen hond, maar ik vind het heerlijk om voor die van een ander te zorgen. Zelfs op mijn werk weten collega’s inmiddels: moet er een hond ergens heen, dan bel je mij. In mijn HR-profiel heb ik dat stiekem ook een beetje als ‘specialisatie’ benoemd. Ik verzorg dieren met veel liefde, geduld en aandacht. Elk beestje is uniek en ik pas me daar met plezier en liefde op aan. De gezelligheid die dieren met zich meebrengen, is voor mij echt goud waard. Met mijn ex-partner had ik een vakantiehuisje in Denia, Spanje. Elke keer als ik daar was, maakte ik een ritje naar het plaatselijke asiel om een hond uit te laten en wat extra liefde te geven, dat werd al snel een vast ritueeltje. Thuis heb ik geen hond, maar wel een ontzettend lieve Noorse Boskat van 10, Marley. Door privéomstandigheden woont ze nu tijdelijk bij mijn moeder, maar ik zoek haar nog vaak op. Ze komt me altijd vrolijk begroeten als ik binnenkom, zit op commando en apporteert haarelastiekjes. Ze geeft me een beetje het gevoel dat ik tóch een hondje heb, op haar eigen unieke manier. Op social media zie ik vaak filmpjes van mensen die dieren (in nood) tegenkomen en redden. Hoe triest sommige verhalen ook zijn, diep vanbinnen hoop ik stiekem dat ik ooit zelf in zo’n situatie kom, zodat ik kan helpen. Mocht ik ooit de loterij winnen (of het gewoon zelf bij elkaar weet te sparen), dan wil ik op een (stads)boerderij wonen en daar dieren opvangen die een veilige plek nodig hebben. Op maandag en woensdag ben ik de hele dag beschikbaar om huisdieren te verzorgen, zowel bij mij thuis als bij het baasje. Ook in het weekend maak ik hier graag tijd voor, met veel aandacht voor veiligheid en vertrouwen. Ik zorg altijd met veel aandacht en geduld voor huisdieren, of dat nu bij mij thuis is of bij het baasje. Een vertrouwde en veilige omgeving staat voorop: ik neem de tijd om het dier rustig te laten wennen en houd goed rekening met hun gewoontes, voeding en beweging. Ook volg ik nauwkeurig de instructies van het baasje op, zodat het dier zich zo comfortabel mogelijk voelt.

Over: I have extensive pet care experience spanning eight years, starting in 2016. Beyond routine care, I've regularly tended to dogs in shelters and have experience fostering them. With a personal pack of four dogs, ranging from small to medium breeds, I'm well-versed in managing various canine personalities and needs. Additionally, I specialize in training both puppies and seniors, ensuring they receive tailored care and attention suited to their age and development stage. As I'm currently just finished my Master Degree and working hybrid! I have ample flexibility in my schedule to prioritize pet care. I can seamlessly integrate it into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that your furry friend receives the attention and care they deserve. I'm available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, providing consistent and reliable care tailored to your pet's needs. In my apartment, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a nurturing environment for pets. Whether in my home or a pet owner's, I ensure a secure space where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Dogs are welcome to stay in my bed if that's their preference, and I'm diligent about maintaining a pet-friendly environment. Near my home, there's a park where pets can enjoy outdoor activities and socialization. I take precautions to safeguard pets from any potential hazards and provide a loving atmosphere where they can thrive.

Over: “I love animals and I am a responsible, caring and calm person who truly enjoys taking good care of dogs. I am punctual, trustworthy and always focused on making sure every pet feels safe and happy. I am new to professional pet sitting, but I have personal experience taking care of dogs from family and friends. This has taught me to be patient, attentive and responsible. I also have a small dog at home. She is friendly, calm and fully vaccinated, which has helped me better understand dogs and their needs. I am very used to living with pets and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to provide the best care possible. I enjoy long walks, playing, and spending time with dogs. I am available in Zaandam and Amsterdam and I am motivated to learn and grow while providing loving and reliable care.” I am a student and I study English for about three hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. After my classes, I am fully available and flexible for pet care during the rest of the day and week. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily include walks and care in my daily routine. I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet. At home, I have a friendly dog, and I am used to caring for animals responsibly. My house has a garden, but it is not fenced, so I only allow outdoor time under supervision or I go for regular walks instead. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and supervised at all times. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and providing them with attention, exercise and care.

Over: I began working with animals in 2016 through Paws and Claws, an independent daycare and dog walking service in the UK. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, and caring for dogs throughout the morning and afternoon. I was also responsible for pick-up and drop-off, which involved being trusted with access to clients’ homes. Alongside this, I carried out house calls to help socialise dogs or check in on those who didn’t require a full day of on-site daycare. At the daycare facility, I comfortably handled groups of up to ten dogs of varying breeds, sizes, and temperaments on walks in the local woodlands. As demand grew, I expanded my services to include house and pet sitting across several nearby villages and towns. Over the years, I have cared for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, and I am also happy to tend to gardens or house plants when needed. After moving to Utrecht for my studies, I began offering my own dog walking and pet sitting services to pet owners that I met in the city or at surrounding walking spots. During my time in Utrecht, I also worked for a local hondenuitlaat service, which gave me experience with a lot of common (and some less common) Dutch breeds. A few years later, I am now living in Amsterdam, working full-time with dogs at a fantastic farm facility outside of the city, and finishing up my Master's degree. Do I sound like the right fit for you and your dog? Drop me a message and we can arrange an initial meeting to get to know each other better! (Multiple positive references available upon request). I work a few days a week at a dog daycare organisation on a rural farmland property outside of Amsterdam. On my working days, if I am looking after a dog, I like to bring them with me so that they can socialise with the pack. All transport is done using a fully converted, dog-friendly wagon with additional AC (and lots of cookies!). If a dog needs to be left alone or doesn't get along with other dogs, this can also be easily accommodated during the day in a safe, penned-off area at the facility. On my days off, I am entirely flexible and work from home while finishing my Master's thesis, making my routine highly compatible with dedicated pet care. I live with my girlfriend in a large, multi-room apartment in the Rivierenbuurt neighbourhood of Amsterdam. The location is convenient for dogs and humans alike, being just a short walk from several metro stations and with easy drop-off outside via street access. We are lucky to be located just a stone's throw away from Beatrixpark and Martin Luther Kingpark, with the Amstel and the Amsterdamse Bos close by, providing some wonderful green spaces right on our doorstep for daily walks. Our apartment has two balconies (one of which gets the sun all day long ☀️☀️☀️) and plenty of comfy space inside for dogs to relax. All my dog guests get an entire room to themselves to ensure they have their own quiet and safe space to rest—unless, of course, they prefer to cuddle up with us on the sofa or in bed... Because of my professional background managing packs, safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities, whether looking after a pet in my home or yours.

Over: Hi! I’m Vanessa, and thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! Taking care of animals is one of the most rewarding parts of my life, and I’d love to care for your furry family member. Originally from Brazil, I’ve been living in the Netherlands for the past six years. I now live in Apeldoorn after spending three years in Amsterdam. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for puppies, senior pets, rescue dogs, reactive dogs, and many wonderful cats, each with their own unique personality and needs. I truly enjoy getting to know every pet as an individual and helping them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision. That’s why I treat every pet and every home with kindness, respect, and responsibility, just as I would hope someone would treat mine. My priority is to give your pet the love and attention they deserve while giving you complete peace of mind. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos, so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your furry friend is happy and doing well. Nothing makes me happier than knowing that you can return home to a happy pet and a well-cared-for home. A few details about my services: • I happily provide house sitting throughout the Netherlands wherever the location is reasonably accessible by public transport. Having lived in both Amsterdam and Apeldoorn, I’m comfortable traveling to care for pets in different parts of the country. For bookings that require travel by public transport, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered by the pet owner. I’m always happy to discuss the expected travel costs with you in advance so everything is clear before confirming the booking. • Dog walking and drop-in visits are available locally around Apeldoorn, where I can easily travel by bike. • I always like to arrange a short meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, meet your pet, and make sure we are a great match. For meet-ups outside my local area, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered. A quick note about Rover’s pricing: Rover may automatically add significant extra charges for additional pets. I don’t always agree with how these fees are calculated, so please don’t be discouraged by the total price shown in the app. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s needs and find a fair price that works well for everyone. If you think we might be a good match, I’d love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Warm regards, Vanessa Pet care is my main focus, and I’ve built my schedule around providing attentive and reliable care for pets. Aside from my Dutch classes, my time is dedicated to ensuring every pet I care for gets the love and attention they need. This flexibility allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine and ensure their happiness while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In your home, I ensure the environment is kept clean, secure, and comfortable for your pet, respecting their routine and any specific instructions you provide. I keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being, providing plenty of affection, playtime, and care to make them feel safe and loved. I also communicate regularly with updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s maintaining a calm, familiar atmosphere or adapting to a pet’s unique needs, I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would for my own.

“Dank voor de goede zorgen voor Frouke. Op de foto’s en filmpjes die we tussen door hebben ontvangen is zo goed te zien dat ze het naar haar zin heeft gehad! Een fijne omgeving en wat zijn jullie lief voor voor Frouke. Dank!”

“My dog Muffin had an amazing time with Cristina and Guillaume! It was clear when I picked him up he was relaxed and happy! They're great sitters, completely trustworthy, responsible, and exceptionally good with Muffin! During my time away they kept me updated about Muffin with pics and videos every day, they also played with him and gave him the attention he needed! I felt very relaxed to enjoy my holidays knowing Muffin was in good hands! I look forward to book with them again in the future! Thank you Cristina and Guillaume for keeping Muffin happy while I was away! :)”

“It was my first time using this website to let Agata take care of my Birman cats, Momo and Taro. They were both nervous, but both Agata and her boyfriend did an amazing job to let them feel comfortable. You can easily tell that they really like animals and I was being updated reguraly with how they were doing (and also send pictures) Thank you so much!!”

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

“La verdad que ha cuidado de mi perra genial. Se ha adaptado a todos los cambios que tuvimos y estoy contentísimo. Se la dejaré siempre que lo necesite. Confianza 100% y un amor con los animales”

“Carolina was great with Sebas! He can be very anxious which gives problems with going out but she was very patient and understanding. She obviously cares and has a lot of experience. Sebas was here for more then 2 weeks and all went well; he was happy and relaxed. She and her boyfriend are really nice and good people; we will definitely book again!”

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.

“Mathilda took r good care of Arya. She constantly sent me pictures from her, and we had some good conversations about Arya. Mathilda also has a cat that is dog-friendly, which made Arya really happy!”

Timoteo Z.

“Amanda is sweet to Snoop; she sent a photo or video every day. I saw a happy and enthusiastic little dog. Amanda sticks to the agreements. We will definitely come back again.”

Over: In my opinion, looking after dogs it's a great responsibility because who owner of a dog I know that it is very important for the family. About their care, dogs are all different, like people, and each one has their own way of communicating and feeling trustworthy. I like to respect the dog's time to feel comfortable with me to have a friendly relationship and make them feel safe. I have a flexible hours because I work by project, so if we arrange a day before, I can adapt my schedule. Also I don't have any problem to look after them a workable day as well as a weekend. First at all, I would ask the owner if the dog had special treatment for health or behavior. Second, I would ask what type of game it usually plays and I would adapt to its way of playing. Third, what are its times for eating or going for a walk.

“Super happy that I found Anushka. She took really good care of my dog while I was on a work trip. My dog can be quite sensitive to changes and a bit worried when I leave her with new ppl but Anushka was patient with her and gave me updates, sent pictures and told me about how she was settling in. Felt very safe to leave her there. Will def book again when something’s come up.”

Lina K.

“On super short notice Megha and Ash took in our English Bulldog LouLou for a long weekend. They responded almost instantly, were extremely welcoming and finally made the stay for LouLou (and our family) super relaxed. She received all the attention she needed - and a lot more probably). Therefore we highly recommend this loving and warm couple - and thank them a lot. 🙏🏻”

Benny S.

“Was hele prettige kennismaking Na verblijf was Rust heel relaxed en je kon merken dat hij het enorm naar zijn zin heeft gehad Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar”

Alex C.

“We had a wonderful experience with Vidushi! She sent us lots of photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that she genuinely enjoyed taking care of Rio. She took him on fun outings, kept us updated throughout his stay, and was very thoughtful about the hot weather for our frenchy. We really felt he was in great hands, and it looked like he had an amazing time too. We would highly recommend Vidushi and would happily leave Rio with her again! See you soon!!!”
