“Elly heeft een week op Evy gepast en dat is ons en Evy fantastisch bevallen. Elly is een lieve, zorgzame oppas. Elke dag zijn we op de hoogte gehouden met een filmpje hoe het met Evy ging, Ze liet haar rustig wennen aan haar nieuwe omgeving en dat had succes! Bij het ophalen liet Evy zelfs blijken dat ze het nog wel goed had eigenlijk. 😀”

Nancy V.

“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.

“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!”

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: 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.

“Nasz piesek Foxi był u Pedro 6 dni. Wszystko poszło super ! Bardzo dobry kontakt. Pies wrócił szczęśliwy. Napewno skorzystamy jeszcze z opieki u Pedro. Bardzo polecam!”

Żaneta B.

“Fantastic support for our last minute booking for our precious Gemma. Ash has been responsive the whole time, and very caring. Gemma had a lovely stay, enjoying her walks and outings. Thank you so much!”

Over: Hello, dear pet parents! 🐾 My name is Elena, and I’ve always been passionate about animals and the unique personalities that make each one so special. A few years ago, I became the happy cat parent of Arya, and caring for her has been an incredibly meaningful and rewarding experience. Through our time together, I’ve learned how important it is to understand an animal’s individual needs, routines, and preferences. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, long walks, or simply providing comfort and attention, I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved. My experience with animals has helped me develop a caring, patient, and attentive approach to pet care. I understand that every cat and dog has their own character, energy level, and way of communicating, and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet enjoys active adventures, cozy cuddles, or a calm and familiar routine, I will do my best to provide the care, attention, and affection they need while you’re away. I would be delighted to offer my pet-sitting services across the Amersfoort area and ensure that your beloved companion receives the same level of care and respect that I would give my own pet. 💛 I currently work a part-time morning job, which gives me good flexibility in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care, including walks, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I can also adjust my schedule in advance to fit your pet’s routine when needed. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, whether I’m caring for them in their own home or during visits. In a pet owner’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep the pet’s environment familiar and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get the right amount of exercise and attention, and that their usual routines are maintained. I also keep the home tidy and secure, and I’m very mindful of keeping doors, windows, and any hazards properly checked. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and boundaries, so I can interact with them in a calm, respectful way that helps build trust. I always make sure pets feel safe, never rushed, and comfortable at their own pace. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care so pets feel relaxed and well looked after while their owners are away.

“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.

“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: 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.

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: Sinds mijn 15e heb ik een eigen kat gehad die een liefdevol en vrij leven heeft gehad. Daarnaast heb ik ook andere huisdieren gehad en vind ik het heel leuk om verschillende dieren te verzorgen. Als afgestudeerd paraveterinair dierenartsassistent wil ik mijzelf alleen maar meer bezig houden met dieren en de zorg die hierbij komt kijken.

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.

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: 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.

“Fijne oppas plek! Rick heeft tijd en aandacht voor de hond en zorgt er goed voor. Onze Luz komt er graag!”

“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.”

“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.”

“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: 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

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: I have a close relationship with my dog back home and now looking forward to take care or spend my time with some pets away from home. Love to take them for walks and overnight care. It is important for me to know there routines and behaviour for the best care I can give. I have a Labrador that is 8 years’ old he is hyperactive and I have been able to understand dog behaviours and needs to keep them happy. I have walked pets earlier too of different age and sizes. I'm mostly available on the weekends and evenings with flexible timings. Timings can be spoken based on the need and some days, I can also make it in weekdays and work while taking care of your pet. I have an decent sized apartment and wouldn't mind the pet going around the house and use my furniture's to chill if they are used to doing that. I will do my best to make them feel like home when I have them over at mine.

“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.”

Ariana K.

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: (honden,katten,konijnen,knaagdieren)
 alle soorten en maten ben ik mee opgegroeid:) Thuis hebben we nu 2 honden (Akita/Heder & ChowChow) en hebben we nog 2 katten. De Chowchow is mijn eigen hond en ik weet hoeveel dieren voor je kunnen betekenen. Gewend om met twee honden tegelijk te lopen die absoluut niet makkelijk zijn en een eigenwijs karakter hebben. Ook heb ik meerdere cursussen met ze gedaan dus weet waar bepaald gedrag vandaan komt.
Regelmatig pas ik bij kennissen en familieleden op hun dieren in huis. Inmiddels ervaringen met verschillende dieren en rassen.Ik heb er dan ook geen moeite mee om op verschillende dieren te passen.
Dus Ervaring met andere honden heb ik, zowel groot als klein! Ik ben vrij flexibel als het om tijden gaat weekend of avonden maken voor mij niet uit :) bij mij is er veel mogelijk van lange tot korte wandelingen tot in huis komen oppassen. Momenteel heb ik geen vaste baan en plan mijn eigen diensten in. Zo ben ik flexibel in het aannemen van dieren en ben ik veel thuis. Woon samen in een appartement met mijn hond. Super lieve en gemakkelijke hond. Ze is gewend met andere honden die bij mij thuis komen maar heb haar ook vaak mee genomen naar andere oppas adressen :)

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.

“Elly and Theo are absolutely lovely people and they took such good care of Khai🥰 They sent me updates and photos which were super cute. I highly recommend them and I will definitely bring Khai back again. ❤️”

Over: Hi there! Animals have been a core part of my life for as long as I can remember. Having cared for dogs, cats, parrots, and hamsters over the years, pet care is both a lifelong passion and second nature to me. I remember myself at 7-8 years old begging for a pet to take care of, because I couldn’t take chickens or pigs to my apartment from my grandmas village. Since I was 14 years old I have been taking care of my cat Mars and after that dog Herra. They were a big part of my life, you can see them on my pictures. I potty trained my cat, walked and trained my dog, spending a lot of my feee time with them. Now that I live in the Netherlands and currently cannot have a pet in my house permanently, I would really love to take care and give my love to your pets. What i offer: * Work-From-Home Flexibility: Available throughout the day for mid-day check-ins, feeding, and dog walks every 2–4 hours. * Tailored Energy Levels: Long, stimulating walks and games of fetch for active pups, plus calm, reassuring companionship for quieter pets. * Comprehensive Pet Care: Reliable drop-in visits for cats, routine feedings, engaging play, and experience administering necessary medication. * Hands-On Experience: As a long-time former dog owner, I deeply understand pet safety, routine, and individual care needs. I am working full-time but mostly from home that makes it easier for me to have my evenings free. I am also available during the weekends. For the Active Adventurer: I have plenty of enthusiasm for long, brisk walks, outdoor exploration, and engaging games that will leave your pet happy and tired. For the Homebody & Senior Pet: I love creating a calm, safe environment. I'm more than happy to spend hours just hanging out at home, sharing moments of peace, and offering quiet companionship.

Over: Both of us are currently working from home, and our schedules allow us to be flexible to care for your pet. There will always be 2 pairs of watchful eyes on your pet and we will never leave them unattended even if they are sleeping. We also love taking walks in nature, so we would be very happy to walk your dog and spend time with them outdoors. Our weekends are very flexible, so we are open to also watching your pets for a longer duration! We have a quiet apartment, with plenty of space for the pets to run around and play. As we regularly pet-sit, we always ensure that the pet has the water bowl filled, and a cozy corner with their toys and blanket. We make sure that our balcony is closed, and all decorative objects in the house are out-of-reach. We love playing and cuddling with the pets and always keep a constant eye on them and send photo/video updates to the pet parents.

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.

“Zeer enthousiaste hondenliefhebber en -kenner. Een heel prettige dame in de omgang en dan ook nog eens kennis van zaken. De klik met zowel onszelf als de honden was er daardoor meteen.”

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.

“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!”

“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!”

“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!”

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.

“Nasz piesek Foxi był u Pedro 6 dni. Wszystko poszło super ! Bardzo dobry kontakt. Pies wrócił szczęśliwy. Napewno skorzystamy jeszcze z opieki u Pedro. Bardzo polecam!”

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.

“Marcela was great! Woody seems to have loved staying with them. Usually he's very picky with food but seems to have eaten well during his stay, which is a great sign. Communication was great, and I got a lot of happy photos.”

“Hep vond het geweldig bij Fenna, ze neemt uitgebreid de tijd om kennis te maken en weet alles van honden. Bedankt voor je flexibiliteit! tot de volgende keer!”

“It was such a relief to meet Christa! To find her such a lovely and responsible person, I could absolutely trust her with my dog. He’s quite a tough dog to handle with lots of precautions, but she was perfectly able to deal with him and fully respected all my rules with discipline. They got along very well, and I was impressed - especially it was my first time ever to leave my dog with a stranger. Christa was also easy to communicate with, responsive, sent me updates and was flexible. I will go exclusive from here on out!”

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. 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 different pets for families and friends, covering various breeds and ages. 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.”
