Persoonlijke verzorging voor je hond of kat: Buren

“Snelle reactie en afspraken. Vriendelijk en goed op onze Jutta gepast. Foto's gekregen tijdens verblijf. Flexibel in tijden afspreken.”

“Ilaria took care of our dog for a whole day. She walked and played with her a lot and sent us many pictures and videos. She also brought her to the forest. She was reachable and kept us updated throughout the day. We would recommend her!”

Belen A.

“We zijn de laatste jaren nig nooit zo zorgeloos op vakantie gegaan als nu. Diezel had het helemaal naar zijn zin. Achter de hamster aanlopen, wandelen samen met hun hond, zelfgemaakt eten krijgen. We kregen dagelijks fotos en filmpjes. Dovile had zelfs zijn mandje en knuffels uitgewassen en Diezel gedoucht, hij ruikt nou nog steeds lekker. En dat vond hij allemaal goed. En hoe raar het ook klinkt, we hebben Diezel bijna 15 jaar maar toch kregen we nog tips over hoe met hem om te gaan en over voeding die we zelf niet kenden Hij smult nog steeds van de homemade hondensnoepjes waar we een zak van meekregen. Divile zou workshops voeding en omgang kunnen geven. En het mooiste is dat iedereen die bij ons komt het idee heeft dat hij weer helemaal opgeleefd is en dat hebben we allemaal aan Dovile te danken. Soms denk ik dat hij haar ook wel mist. En hun hond ook want telkens als hij een hind ziet die er op lijkt moet hij er naar toe. We hopen dat hij nog vaak bij haar terecht zal kunnen.”

“Super oppas! Mijn hond heeft een fijne tijd hier gehad, werd lekker meegenomen op lange wandelingen! Super fijn, volgende keer zal ik Rick opnieuw vragen om op te passen😃”

Vera E.

“We had a wonderful experience with Begoña. She took great care of our rescue dog, who has some allergies and requires a little extra attention. Communication was very smooth from start to finish—she kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog looked happy and relaxed in every update, and it’s clear he had a great time with her. We’re so grateful for the care and love she provided. Highly recommended!”

Nicola S.

“This was the first time we use the services and I must say we are 100% satisfied. We left our babies and I felt like the most nervous mother who just left her children for the first time at pre school. I was nervous and emotional. Vatsala was amazing. We got updates and photos. Vatsala has been patient and answered all our questions. She has helped us feel comfortable knowing our babies are well cared for. If you are looking for a sitter Vatsala is the best you could ever get”

Erika C.

“Hele fijne oppas voor onze hond Mila. Laura houdt goed contact met je. Neemt de tijd voor meerdere wandelingen op een dag. Laura stemt alles keurig met je af. Superblij met deze oppasmogelijkheid en Mila ook!”

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.

“Sam took care of Sadie for 5 days and she did a wonderful job at it! She is a very friendly, approachable person, with a relaxed attitude. She sent me lots of pics and video's so that I could enjoy my holidays without worrying. Her two dogs were also very nice company for mine. The house and garden are a perfect environment for dogs! She communicates very well and consulted me when she wasn't sure about how to treat a situation. I would definitely recommend her and will most probably make use of her service in the future. Thank you Sam!”

Piroska O.

“I can highly recommend Esther to look after your animal. Luka, my pitbull stayed with her for 4 nights, and I could not ask for someone better!! She is kind, caring and kept me updated with photos daily. Luka was well received by Esther and her family. I can highly recommend her to look after your four leg child!”

Beatrice C.

“Maarten en zijn gezin hebben echt een grote liefdevolle toewijding voor de honden waar ze oppassen. Onze hond Stip is een gevoelige hond en was daar in perfecte handen. De twee kleine kindjes van Maarten wisten van nature hoe ze met Stip om moesten gaan. Maarten communiceert superfijn, is flexibel en echt een topper!”

Roos C.

“Muy contento con el cuidado que Mariangel ha tenido con mi perrita. La ha cuidado durante una semana y siempre me ha transmitido confianza y tranquilidad. Diariamente me informaba de cómo estaba la perrita mandándome fotos y dando detalles. Y no hay más que ver de como salía de contenta mi perrita en las fotos, de que estaba bien cuidada. Además, ha entendido las necesidades de mi perrita que es adoptada y tiene un poco de miedos, teniendo paciencia con ella y dándole lo que necesita.”

FRANCISCO N.

“Our Brooklyn is a sweet girl who needs people she can trust and we wanted her to feel comfortable while we were away for a night, so finding the right sitter is always important to us. Ash and her had a good connection and we really liked that he knows rescue dogs and sent us some pictures along the way.”

Candice B.

“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.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Pet Sitters! Marcela and Cristian took excellent care of my dog, Maqui. They kept me updated with lots of pictures, and it was clear that Maqui was happy and well cared for during her stay. I truly appreciate their kindness and dedication. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving pet sitters!”

Over: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets for 7 years. My family, friends and neighbors trust me for the best treatment and for their peace of mind. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time for pet care. I am available almost all week and you can contact me the same day. I live in a bungalow with a garden in a campsite with lots of green space so your pet can enjoy the outdoors and have a good time.

Over: Hello! My name is Jiayi, and I would be delighted to look after your pet. My motivation for becoming a pet sitter comes from my love for animals and the joy I get from spending time with them. Pet sitting is a wonderful opportunity for me to spend my free time doing something I truly enjoy while also earning some extra income. I charge very low because I’m still new in pet sitting, but with all my heart, I will not break your trust ❤️ I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and welcoming environment. I have experience caring for pets belonging to clients and also friends. Through these experiences, I have learned how important it is to be patient, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I take pride in being a caring and trustworthy person, and I treat pets with the same kindness that I would give my own. For the health and safety of all pets, I only accept vaccinated animals into my home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work from home most days, which allows me to spend plenty of time caring for pets. On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and am available all day to give pets extra attention and care. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care requirements to ensure they receive personalized attention. As I work from home most days, your pet will have regular supervision and companionship throughout the day. I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep fresh water available at all times, and make sure litter boxes are kept clean. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“As it was the first time our dog stayed at a sitter we were a little nervous. However we quickly received photo's and videos of Remy doing very well, which put our minds at ease. Communication was fast and easy and she does really come across as a true dog-person. Will definately sit with Prerona again!”

Over: Ik hou ontzettend van dieren en heb sinds dat we dit jaar een nieuwe hond hebben genomen een grote passie ontdekt. Ik doe ook om de week vrijwilligerswerk bij een kinderboerderij Ik begin vanaf 1 september weer met school, maar ben in het weekend en doordeweeks vaak in de ochtend beschikbaar. De dagen dat ik wel in de ochtend school heb ben ik tussen 08:00 en 09:00 beschikbaar om uit te laten. Ik heb een redelijk grote tuin met veel planten en ik heb een heel groot speelveld achter bij mij thuis. Ik heb ook een andere hond en een kat.

“He is very flexible with timing, which we really appreciated. Our dog is a very playful 6-month-old puppy, and he was extremely patient with him. He even bought a toy ball for him, which meant a lot to us. We were very satisfied with the care and truly thankful.”

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 ben opgegroeid met dieren en heb van jongs af aan ervaring met het verzorgen van honden, katten, vogels en andere huisdieren. Dieren zijn altijd een belangrijk onderdeel van mijn leven geweest en ook nu heb ik nog dagelijks dieren om mij heen. Ik vind het belangrijk dat elk huisdier zich veilig, rustig en geliefd voelt. Of het nu gaat om spelen, wandelen, voeren of gewoon extra aandacht geven, ik zorg met veel liefde en geduld voor ieder dier alsof het mijn eigen huisdier is.

“Ashmita heeft op onze katten opgepast. We zijn hartstikke tevreden, want ze heeft alles gedaan wat we van haar hebben gevraagd en onze katten vinden haar lief. Ook altijd een appje/update gekregen van haar bezoek. Al met al, een aanrader!”

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.

“Romy (5-jarige Roemeense rescue hond) voor de eerste keer bij de dagopvang van Nadja gebracht. Voor alle betrokkenen (en dus ook Romy) een spannende gebeurtenis. Zij (Romy) heeft dat goed en rustig gedaan. Hier zullen we ons hondje wel vaker gaan brengen.”

Over: Van jongs af aan ben ik gek op honden! Liefst honden waar je lang mee kunt wandelen, rennen en spelen. Energiek. Ik ben via mijn ouders, familie en vrienden veel in aanmerking gekomen met honden. Pas nu ook regelmatig op en loop met een hond voor de organisatie Dierenbuddy. Momenteel zit ik tussen twee banen in en ben ik meer thuis. Ik doe vrijwilligerswerk, maar heb veel uren over. Deze besteedt ik al veel buiten (in het bos). Aangezien ik veel van honden houd hoop ik die twee te kunnen combineren! Ik woon in een appartement op steenworp afstand van een hondenlosloopgebied. Voor een langere wandeling steek ik zo door naar het grote bos Den Treek. Thuis zou een hond ook even kunnen vertoeven, maar we gaan natuurlijk vooral naar buiten.

“Life offers BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE MEETINGS !!! Tatiana is definitely one of them !!! She has been WONDERFUL with our 6 months dog, she took care of him for 3 days. She even had to give him his medication. We couldn't find better than Tatiana to take so great care of our dog, a REAL GIFT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her !!! Thank you Tatiana.”

Over: I've always been surrounded by cats and dogs. I love puppies but also the older animals because I feel I can create a deeper connection with them. I've recently graduated from Wur. I'm currently doing some part time jobs, and I have a quite flexible schedule. In other words, I can change and organize my schedule to adapt to the needs of the new pet. At my place there is a lil garden and the animal can stay inside. I'm also happy to walk the dog and stay at the owner's place if that's more handy.

Over: I am friendly, kind and very good with animals. I have looked after stray animals for all of my life, and I have looked after 2 beautiful cats for more than 7 years. I have been providing animal care on these sorts of platforms since 2025. I am very experienced with difficult and not-so-friendly cats, also with administrating oral medication. I don’t mind when it comes to breed, size, and/or age, all animals are welcome with me. I have a followed a grooming course where I learned how to wash, dry, and style many dog breeds and cats. I will make sure to play with them, perform tricks, and go on potty breaks as often as needed. Feel free to contact me for any bookings and questions! I’m currently working part time 2 days a week in the afternoon/evening, and by the time I’m gone my boyfriend comes home pretty soon therefore there is almost always someone in the house. I kindly ask my clients to bring over any food, toys, beds etc. that the pet needs so that we can create a familiar environment for them and make them feel as safe and happy as possible. Of course, we make sure to keep around some treats in the house for our visitors ;) When I am at a client’s house, I make sure to respect the environment that I am in and make sure to keep/leave it clean. Additionally, I like taking care of plants in my house so if you have any in yours that needs to be watered, I can take care of that too!

“Jessica Samantha is een superoppas! Bij de eerste ontmoeting kon ons hondje Dora ook kennismaken met de hinden van Jessica Samantha. Dat ging meteen goed. Toen wij Dora op de oppasdag bij Jessica Samantha thuis brachten was ze heel relaxed. In de loop van de dag werden wij op de hoogte gehouden van Dora’s reilen en zeilen dmv foto’s en filmpjes. Geweldig! Een adresje om zeker naar terug te komen.”

Over: Ervaring in de zorg voor dieren – met liefde en oprechte toewijding Ik hou van dieren sinds mijn kindertijd – zolang ik mij kan herinneren, was ik altijd omringd door dieren: honden, katten, vogeltjes, hamsters. Voor hen zorgen was voor mij vanzelfsprekend en belangrijk. Ik gaf elk dier mijn volledige aandacht, warmte en liefde. Ik heb veel persoonlijke ervaring met verschillende soorten dieren – niet alleen in dagelijkse verzorging, maar ook in het begeleiden van dieren die moeten wennen aan een nieuw thuis. Zo hebben we bijvoorbeeld een kat uit het asiel genomen en ik heb hem op een rustige en geduldige manier geholpen zich veilig te voelen in zijn nieuwe omgeving. De kat werd apart gehouden van onze hond Nika zodat hij op zijn gemak kon wennen. Ik woon nu bijna 3 jaar samen met mijn hondje Nika, die ik heb gered uit slechte omstandigheden. Ze is heel lief en vriendelijk, maar ik zorg er altijd voor dat andere dieren zich veilig voelen – indien nodig worden ze apart gehouden, en als het kan laat ik ze op een rustige manier kennis maken. Ik begrijp hoe belangrijk het is om vertrouwen rustig op te bouwen, en ik geef elk dier de tijd die het nodig heeft. Hoewel ik geen professionele trainer ben, neem ik het gedrag van elk dier serieus. Ik probeer hun behoeften te begrijpen en reageer altijd rustig en liefdevol. Voor mij is het belangrijk om een warme, veilige en liefdevolle omgeving te creëren waarin het dier zich goed voelt. Ik doe altijd mijn best, zelfs met moeilijkere dieren – verlegen, gevoelige of minder sociale dieren zijn welkom. Ik ontvang ieder dier met liefde, zorg en geduld. Mijn doel is niet alleen om goed voor het dier te zorgen, maar om het echt gelukkig te maken. 🐾 Ik hou heel veel van dieren en wil niet alleen voor jouw huisdier zorgen, maar ook een bijdrage leveren aan dieren die nog op hun eigenaar wachten. Daarom ben ik een klein goedheidsinitiatief begonnen – ik verzamel voer voor honden en katten, dat ik later naar een dierenasiel zal brengen. Het kan wat langer duren om alles te verzamelen, maar elke kleine bijdrage is een grote stap voor deze dieren. Als je samen met je huisdier een beetje voer of lekkernijen zou kunnen meenemen, zou dat een prachtige gift zijn voor dieren die nog op hun geluk wachten. 💖🐶🐱 Mijn dagindeling – alle aandacht voor jouw huisdier Ik ben de hele dag thuis, dus ik kan jouw huisdier alle aandacht geven die het nodig heeft. Ongeveer een jaar geleden ben ik naar Nederland verhuisd – ik woon hier alleen met mijn man en mijn geliefde hondje Nika, die ik samen met mij heb meegenomen uit mijn thuisland. Ik heb hier geen vrienden of familie, dus al mijn tijd en zorg kan ik volledig aan dieren besteden. Mijn dagelijkse routine is rustig, ik hoef nergens heen en heb geen andere verplichtingen – jouw dier wordt mijn prioriteit. Ik bied niet alleen constante zorg en toezicht, maar ook veel liefde, tederheid en rust. Als het dier geduld nodig heeft, neem ik daar alle tijd voor. Als het behoefte heeft aan spelen of gezelschap, ben ik er ook volledig voor. Ik begrijp dat het niet makkelijk is om je huisdier aan iemand anders toe te vertrouwen. Daarom doe ik er alles aan om precies die verzorger te zijn die ik zelf ook voor mijn eigen dier zou willen hebben. Ik woon in een gezellig appartement met een afgesloten tuin, waar uw huisdier veilig zowel binnen als buiten kan zijn. Ik zorg met oprechte liefde en veel aandacht voor dieren – thuis woon ik samen met mijn lieve, speelse hond Nika, die vriendelijk is en graag met andere dieren omgaat. Wanneer nodig, wordt Nika in een aparte kamer gehouden zodat uw huisdier zich rustig en zonder stress kan voelen. Ik ben de hele dag thuis, dus ik kan zoveel aandacht en liefde geven als nodig is. Ik zorg er altijd voor dat uw huisdier zich veilig, gelukkig en geliefd voelt – alsof hij deel uitmaakt van mijn eigen familie.

Over: I’ve always been around dogs and have had my own for as long as I can remember. Friends and family often trust me to look after their dogs, and many of them stay at my home. I’m comfortable with different breeds and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for I work from home with a flexible schedule and I make sure to walk the dogs at least three times every day. I also have a backyard where the dogs can play and run around freely. I have a garden at home where dogs can safely play and relax. I also live in a calm area with plenty of parks, perfect for walks. I have a very friendly dog who loves the company of other dogs, so your pet will always feel comfortable and welcome.

“Chester had a great time with Mylene, she spent time to help him be comfortable and settle and took him several walks. Each day he was excited to return.”

Over: I am obsessed with dogs particularly rescues. I rescued my tripaw Odin 14 years ago from a river in Spain. I travelled the world with him (25+ countries) and trained him to be the best companion. He sadly passed in November 2025. I rescued Nuri two years ago and she is the happiest bundle of joy. She is just full of love and happiness. We look forward to welcome your lovely furr babies into our amazing home. I am self employed with my own companies. I work from home and I train every day but i own my schedule. The dogs are always with me, or if they are left at home it's only for a few hours where they can relax on the ultra comfy sofas. I have a very big fenced garden and huge comfy sofas. I live out of the city but easily accessible. I have two dogs in the house. One senior and one young.

“Vatsala was amazing!!! My wedding was this past Saturday and we needed someone to watch our pups all day during the festivities. We couldn’t have chosen anyone better for such an important day. Vatsala and her fiance were the sweetest people on Rover, on time, easy to work with, and most importantly, the fur babes loved them! Couldn’t recommend higher.”

Over: Ik ben een dierenliefhebber en een professionele fotograaf. Voor mij zijn huisdieren als engelen met vier poten, en ik doe mijn best om ze alle liefde en zorg te geven die ze verdienen. Ik geniet ervan om veilige wandelingen in parken te maken, van de natuur te genieten en ervoor te zorgen dat ze altijd comfortabel, veilig en gelukkig zijn. Ik hou ervan om met allerlei Fiele Vrienden om te gaan, of ze nu harig, gevederd of met een schild zijn. Ik zorg er altijd voor dat ik ze liefde en aandacht geef en houd de eigenaren op de hoogte met foto’s en video’s, zodat ze gerust kunnen zijn, wetende dat hun geliefde metgezellen in goede handen zijn. Ik ben nieuw in de omgeving en ben de taal aan het leren, hoewel ik een beetje Engels spreek. Ik heb nooit problemen gehad met communiceren, aangezien ik in staat ben om met mijn telefoon nauwkeurig te begrijpen, te vertalen en te antwoorden in elke taal, zodat de eigenaren altijd op de hoogte zijn en zich verbonden voelen met hun Fiele Vrienden. De zorg voor huisdieren past perfect in mijn dagelijkse en wekelijkse routine, omdat het voor mij een taak is vol liefde en toewijding. Elke dag zorg ik ervoor dat ik veilige wandelingen in de parken maak, geniet van de natuur en ervoor zorg dat de huisdieren altijd comfortabel, veilig en gelukkig zijn. Ik ga ook met ze om, of het nu spelen, aaien of ze persoonlijke aandacht geven is. Daarnaast houd ik de eigenaren op de hoogte met foto’s en video’s, zodat ze gerust kunnen zijn en op de hoogte blijven van alles wat er gebeurt terwijl ik voor hun Fiele Vrienden zorg. Omdat mijn werk iets is dat ik diep van binnen geniet, integreer ik het op een natuurlijke manier in mijn routine, waardoor de zorg voor huisdieren een essentieel onderdeel van mijn dagelijks leven is. Ik zorg voor de huisdieren met veel liefde en toewijding, en zorg ervoor dat ze altijd comfortabel, veilig en gelukkig zijn. Ik bied veilige wandelingen, spelletjes, genegenheid en persoonlijke aandacht, terwijl ik de eigenaren op de hoogte houd met foto’s en video’s. Ik richt me op het volgen van hun gebruikelijke routine, zodat ze zich rustig en in een vertrouwde omgeving voelen, of het nu thuis is of ergens anders waar ze zich op hun gemak voelen.

Over: I've been surrounded by pets since I was 5 years old, fostering a deep love and understanding of animal care. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of various breeds and temperaments, honing my skills in providing attentive and compassionate care. In addition to my extensive experience, I also take pride in personally giving basic training to my dogs, ensuring they are well-behaved and happy. My lifelong passion and hands-on approach guarantee that your furry friend will receive the best possible care and attention. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to engage play time and take dogs on walks and just be with them I have a 1 bed room apartment, I have 2 dogs of my own, they sleep and play around the house happily , they even can play fetch around the house

“Kenza is a lovely person who was very patient with our dog and really made an effort to make him as comfortable as possible. Herself and her partner really took the time to get to know our scared dog and made sure that he has everything he needs. I would recommend Kenza as a dog sitter and we hope to be able to make use of her services again in the future.”

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.

Ik werk en ben dus beperkt beschikbaar, voor mijn vriendin - student- geldt hetzelfde. Oppas of uitlaten dus altijd in overleg. Let op: ik woon op een bovenverdieping met alleen een trap ter beschikking. Geen tuin of balkon beschikbaar. Ik zal geen ander eten geven dan thuis gedaan wordt en ga het liefst veel naar buiten met de beestjes.

“Snelle reactie en afspraken. Vriendelijk en goed op onze Jutta gepast. Foto's gekregen tijdens verblijf. Flexibel in tijden afspreken.”

“Ilaria took care of our dog for a whole day. She walked and played with her a lot and sent us many pictures and videos. She also brought her to the forest. She was reachable and kept us updated throughout the day. We would recommend her!”

“We zijn de laatste jaren nig nooit zo zorgeloos op vakantie gegaan als nu. Diezel had het helemaal naar zijn zin. Achter de hamster aanlopen, wandelen samen met hun hond, zelfgemaakt eten krijgen. We kregen dagelijks fotos en filmpjes. Dovile had zelfs zijn mandje en knuffels uitgewassen en Diezel gedoucht, hij ruikt nou nog steeds lekker. En dat vond hij allemaal goed. En hoe raar het ook klinkt, we hebben Diezel bijna 15 jaar maar toch kregen we nog tips over hoe met hem om te gaan en over voeding die we zelf niet kenden Hij smult nog steeds van de homemade hondensnoepjes waar we een zak van meekregen. Divile zou workshops voeding en omgang kunnen geven. En het mooiste is dat iedereen die bij ons komt het idee heeft dat hij weer helemaal opgeleefd is en dat hebben we allemaal aan Dovile te danken. Soms denk ik dat hij haar ook wel mist. En hun hond ook want telkens als hij een hind ziet die er op lijkt moet hij er naar toe. We hopen dat hij nog vaak bij haar terecht zal kunnen.”

“Super oppas! Mijn hond heeft een fijne tijd hier gehad, werd lekker meegenomen op lange wandelingen! Super fijn, volgende keer zal ik Rick opnieuw vragen om op te passen😃”

“We had a wonderful experience with Begoña. She took great care of our rescue dog, who has some allergies and requires a little extra attention. Communication was very smooth from start to finish—she kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog looked happy and relaxed in every update, and it’s clear he had a great time with her. We’re so grateful for the care and love she provided. Highly recommended!”

“This was the first time we use the services and I must say we are 100% satisfied. We left our babies and I felt like the most nervous mother who just left her children for the first time at pre school. I was nervous and emotional. Vatsala was amazing. We got updates and photos. Vatsala has been patient and answered all our questions. She has helped us feel comfortable knowing our babies are well cared for. If you are looking for a sitter Vatsala is the best you could ever get”

“Hele fijne oppas voor onze hond Mila. Laura houdt goed contact met je. Neemt de tijd voor meerdere wandelingen op een dag. Laura stemt alles keurig met je af. Superblij met deze oppasmogelijkheid en Mila ook!”

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.

“Sam took care of Sadie for 5 days and she did a wonderful job at it! She is a very friendly, approachable person, with a relaxed attitude. She sent me lots of pics and video's so that I could enjoy my holidays without worrying. Her two dogs were also very nice company for mine. The house and garden are a perfect environment for dogs! She communicates very well and consulted me when she wasn't sure about how to treat a situation. I would definitely recommend her and will most probably make use of her service in the future. Thank you Sam!”

“I can highly recommend Esther to look after your animal. Luka, my pitbull stayed with her for 4 nights, and I could not ask for someone better!! She is kind, caring and kept me updated with photos daily. Luka was well received by Esther and her family. I can highly recommend her to look after your four leg child!”

Beatrice C.

“Maarten en zijn gezin hebben echt een grote liefdevolle toewijding voor de honden waar ze oppassen. Onze hond Stip is een gevoelige hond en was daar in perfecte handen. De twee kleine kindjes van Maarten wisten van nature hoe ze met Stip om moesten gaan. Maarten communiceert superfijn, is flexibel en echt een topper!”

Roos C.

“Our Brooklyn is a sweet girl who needs people she can trust and we wanted her to feel comfortable while we were away for a night, so finding the right sitter is always important to us. Ash and her had a good connection and we really liked that he knows rescue dogs and sent us some pictures along the way.”

Candice B.

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Pet Sitters! Marcela and Cristian took excellent care of my dog, Maqui. They kept me updated with lots of pictures, and it was clear that Maqui was happy and well cared for during her stay. I truly appreciate their kindness and dedication. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and loving pet sitters!”

Over: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets for 7 years. My family, friends and neighbors trust me for the best treatment and for their peace of mind. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time for pet care. I am available almost all week and you can contact me the same day. I live in a bungalow with a garden in a campsite with lots of green space so your pet can enjoy the outdoors and have a good time.

Over: Hello! My name is Jiayi, and I would be delighted to look after your pet. My motivation for becoming a pet sitter comes from my love for animals and the joy I get from spending time with them. Pet sitting is a wonderful opportunity for me to spend my free time doing something I truly enjoy while also earning some extra income. I charge very low because I’m still new in pet sitting, but with all my heart, I will not break your trust ❤️ I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and welcoming environment. I have experience caring for pets belonging to clients and also friends. Through these experiences, I have learned how important it is to be patient, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I take pride in being a caring and trustworthy person, and I treat pets with the same kindness that I would give my own. For the health and safety of all pets, I only accept vaccinated animals into my home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work from home most days, which allows me to spend plenty of time caring for pets. On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and am available all day to give pets extra attention and care. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care requirements to ensure they receive personalized attention. As I work from home most days, your pet will have regular supervision and companionship throughout the day. I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep fresh water available at all times, and make sure litter boxes are kept clean. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“He is very flexible with timing, which we really appreciated. Our dog is a very playful 6-month-old puppy, and he was extremely patient with him. He even bought a toy ball for him, which meant a lot to us. We were very satisfied with the care and truly thankful.”

Over: I am friendly, kind and very good with animals. I have looked after stray animals for all of my life, and I have looked after 2 beautiful cats for more than 7 years. I have been providing animal care on these sorts of platforms since 2025. I am very experienced with difficult and not-so-friendly cats, also with administrating oral medication. I don’t mind when it comes to breed, size, and/or age, all animals are welcome with me. I have a followed a grooming course where I learned how to wash, dry, and style many dog breeds and cats. I will make sure to play with them, perform tricks, and go on potty breaks as often as needed. Feel free to contact me for any bookings and questions! I’m currently working part time 2 days a week in the afternoon/evening, and by the time I’m gone my boyfriend comes home pretty soon therefore there is almost always someone in the house. I kindly ask my clients to bring over any food, toys, beds etc. that the pet needs so that we can create a familiar environment for them and make them feel as safe and happy as possible. Of course, we make sure to keep around some treats in the house for our visitors ;) When I am at a client’s house, I make sure to respect the environment that I am in and make sure to keep/leave it clean. Additionally, I like taking care of plants in my house so if you have any in yours that needs to be watered, I can take care of that too!

“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 🐾”

“Jack heeft het fantastisch gehad. Op de foto's en video's was dat goed te zien tijdens de uitjes en wandelingen. Maar ook hoe hij bij hun binnen was. Zo zichzelf. Super bedankt en ik hoop zeker dat we Jack nog een volgende keer mogen brengen!”
