Hondenopvang in Haarlemmermeer

Over: Austin is the most experienced since he grew up with dogs since he was little and has always had dogs around. His family also raised Jack Russels. We both are fortunate to work from home, so there is always someone around to provide care for the dog (s), from walks to daily attention. We have a front and back yard, so your doggie will have enough time outside. Also, the house is quite spacious (over 130 m2). We also have our dog with us, a friendly Corgi. We will discuss with you if you want to keep your dog in a separate room. The neighborhood is car-free and there are big parks all around.

Over: Sinds mijn tiende zorg ik met veel liefde voor honden van vrienden, buren en familie. Of het nu ging om uitlaten, eten geven of logeerpartijen — ik deed het met plezier en aandacht. Nu hebben we zelf een lieve pup van 4 maanden, en ik weet hoe belangrijk het is dat je hond een veilige, liefdevolle plek heeft als jij er even niet bent. Bij mij krijgt elke hond alle rust, knuffels en zorg die hij nodig heeft om zich thuis te voelen. Jouw hond is hier geen gast, maar onderdeel van het gezin. Ik ben een huismoeder waardoor ik alle tijd en aandacht heb voor de honden die ik opvang. Mijn dagen zijn rustig en gestructureerd, en ik ben veel thuis met onze eigen pup van 4 maanden. Hondenopvang past daardoor perfect in mijn dagelijkse routine. Ik ben beschikbaar op doordeweekse dagen en in het weekend, en bied een liefdevolle, veilige plek met veel persoonlijke aandacht. Bij mij thuis staat rust, veiligheid en liefdevolle zorg centraal. Honden verblijven in een warme, huiselijke omgeving waar ze zich snel op hun gemak voelen. Ik zorg dat er voldoende structuur is, met vaste wandelmomenten, speeltijd en natuurlijk veel knuffels. Omdat ik altijd in de buurt ben, zijn ze nooit lang alleen. Onze eigen pup is vriendelijk en gewend aan andere honden, wat zorgt voor extra gezelschap en speelmomenten. Ik laat honden nooit los buiten tenzij dit met het baasje is besproken, en houd altijd rekening met de behoeften en gewoontes van elk dier.

Over: I have two dogs in China. One of them is 14 years old. Another one is 15. I love dogs so much. I know how to take care of them. Now I am working part time job. Everyday I have 5 days off. So I have enough time to take care of your dog. But you need contact me 3 days earlier. Because I have two dogs in China. Everyday I walk them outside lots of times, boiling food for them, that’s healthy. And staying with them.

Over: Taken care of puppies and kittens while friends were away. Live alone in a row house in Haarlem with a small backyard and close to lots of green spaces for walks. On a work sabbatical, so have lots of free time and flexibility to board a furry friend. Have sat puppies and kittens for friends. Active outdoor person myself so dogs will get lots of walks and mental stimulation. I am currently on a sabbatical from work and have lots of free time and flexibility to help out those who need their pets taken good care of. I am active and outdoorsy myself and live close to dog parks and green spaces, so plenty of regular walks to be had I live on my own in a row house(90m2) with a small backyard (15m2) and currently no pets. Dogs are allowed on my couch and bed (if they are small) and I live in a pet friendly neighborhood for regular walks. I am a house cat myself, so except for trips to the gym and groceries, I’m available to keep company

Over: Ik kan erg goed omgaan met dieren, omdat ik zelf al heel mijn leven huisdieren heb.
Op dit moment heb ik drie katten en een vogel, maar vroeger ook cavia’s en konijnen gehad. Honden heb ik nu zelf niet, maar in de toekomst zou ik graag wel een hond willen. Ik heb daarentegen wel ervaring met het uitlaten en spelen met honden, omdat vrienden en familie wel honden hebben. Of het nu gaat om katten knuffelen, een vogel verzorgen of met een hond wandelen, ik doe het allemaal graag met plezier en liefde. Uw huisdier is in goede handen bij mij. Ik heb op dit moment geen werk dus ik ben meestal elke dag in de week vrij om hulp aan te bieden voor uw huisdier(en). Ik heb zelf 3 katten en een vogel. Ik heb geen hond, maar ik heb wel ervaring met het uitlaten en spelen met honden. Ik ben erg zorgzaam en kan goed opletten.

Over: I’ve had dogs my whole life but due to a usually busy work schedule as a teacher I currently cannot accommodate a puppy full time. Rover allows me all the love and joy of a dog in my home at the moments when I can give them 100% of my attention. I only take care of pets in my home when I’m in the house- on holidays and weekends. So your furry friend is never bored! Walks are a great way for me to get out and I do them any day of the week! I have a child and smoke free home with a fenced off balcony which has an extra puppy gate to ensure safety. Walks around me are amazing and I love the beach if your furry friend does too.

Over: Fluent in english and spanish I know dogs very well and love them immeasurably, they’ve been with me at home since I was born. When I was 13, I was in charge of our new puppy (scheduling vet visits, vaccines, feeding and more), and then the 4 other dogs that came after. I trained all of them. In my early 20s, I walked and trained dogs as a side job and hobby. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs, as well as with dogs that require medication on a daily or hourly basis. I’m very fond of cats, too, but sadly there weren’t any cats in my family home while I was growing up because my brother was allergic. However, from the moment I started living alone (roughly 10 years ago), different cats would always come to visit, and I am so happy to have been able to host them all. In the present I am missing more contact with furry and fluffy friends a lot! Currently living in a house with garden, with time and willingness of sharing company with animals :) I’ve had the best time taking care of different cats, dogs and plants for friends at their homes in many opportunities At the moment I’m available to walk, train, play with, and/or pet sit at any time during the weekdays and weekends, preferably in the morning and early afternoon, though I am flexible I will adapt to the routine that you and your companion/s already have and I commit to keep you updated with regular photos and videos, I know from the hearth how nice that feels :) I might will ask you about any allergies, patterns you've noticed in them, remnants of previous traumas, fears, whether they get along well with other dogs or cats, etc, all of this so that I can be prepared and know how to react; this will also help me to start building a bond in good terms while respecting their boundaries. Of course I'll also ask about their favourite treats, meals, toys and places, this simply because I am curious to know about what brings them joy and additionally incorporate that into positive reinforcement. I'll adjust our activities depending on your dog's energy level and preferences. Surely there will be walks, play time and cuddles (tons) spread throughout the day. On top of that I like to try out games and challenges to see if we find something new that makes them wag their tail! Like hide and seek with a toy, or learning tricks, or (like some dogs prefer..) just fetching all day long

I do not have a dedicated garden but a cosy balcony for them to chill on and I have a large grassy area outside my apartment for toilet breaks, and lots of walks nearby. I’m on the west side of Haarlem and also love a trail / beach run! I’m confident with dogs on and off the lead, within the boundaries set by you.

“We left our 5 months old puppy Corto for 4 nights and days. And he had the best time. We also had a great holiday as we knew he was in great hands. Terror there dog was a perfect room mate to play with too. Jolinta kept us informed along the way. I would for sure recommend Jolinta and certainly will book her again for the future. Thank you again Jolinta to you and your husband and Terror.”

“Eline was een hele fijne oppas voor onze whisky! Ze was heel hartelijk en heel relaxed en we kregen een leuke foto halverwege waar we zagen dat onze Whisky goed op haar gemak was. Eline was ook heel flexibel en aardig toen we onverhoopt wat vertraagd waren. Ik kan Eline zeker aanraden en hoop vaker van haar oppassen gebruik te mogen maken!”

“José is een fijne oppas voor Boet, onze pup van 7 maanden. Je kunt goede afspraken met hem maken, hij communiceert helder en direct. José is flexibel met breng-en haal tijden. Hij is superleuk en lief met Boet. Hij geeft hem veel aandacht. Gedurende de dag stuurt hij updates, foto's en filmpjes zodat we zien hoe fijn en gezellig Boet het heeft. Kortom, een superfijne, betrouwbare oppas.”

Over: Hi, my name is Melis. I have a dog that I have been taking care of for 14 years. She is a labrador mix. Unfortunately, since I moved away, he stays with my sister because he is too old now. I took full responsibility for my dog and took him out three times a day. Then, I also worked as a cat sitter many times. I really have a great time with them. I am working part time online so generally I am available 7/24 for your pet. And generally I prefer to provide night care in my own home. If I'm going to be at your home around the day, I'll be happy to check your plants and post box. If you have more than one pet dont problem for me. I only spend time with your pet during the day. Iam living with my husband and he loves pet. My house has a two room, saloon and bedroom so there is enough space for the little friends. There are parks and green areas close to my house. What can I do your lovely pet? I can take your dog for an hour-long walk at least twice. I can play with them and pet them as much as they want. I attach importance to nutrition and hygiene regulations. If there are medications, I can give them. I do my best to make them comfortable at home. I can send you photos and videos regularly. Then I can understand their needs and concern needs. Working with them is never like a job and the most important thing is to provide them with an environment of love and peace when their owners are not around. That's why I love doing this job because I know I can give them that attention and care. I can make sure that pet owners don't worry about them when they go somewhere. So thats why I am here. I work part time from home so I can be a full time pet sitter. I can easily make my schedule according to their walking times. There is nothing in my house that would pose a danger to animals. There is a large green area very close to my house, where I can easily walk your dogs.

Over: Your dog or cat will be in safe, loving hands and get all my attention. I'm Sarah and I'm from France. I live in a quiet flat in Haarlem without kids or other pets, so it’s a calm space where your pet can feel relaxed and at home. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have looked after dogs and cats since I was a kid. Building trust with them means a lot to me, and I know it takes time, patience, and consistency. I really enjoy hanging out with animals playing, cuddling, going for walks, and making sure they feel happy and safe. I stick to the same rules and routines you’ve set, so your pet stays comfortable and everything feels familiar. Dogs and cats need someone they can trust and someone you can trust too. I’d love to be that person for you and your furry friend. I work part-time in a restaurant and rarely after 3pm. So I have a lot of time to take care of your dog or cat. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in their familiar environment, I always focus on making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my home, I create a calm and cozy space with no other pets or children, so your dog gets my full attention. I stick closely to the routine you’ve shared whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, or rest so your pet feels right at home. If I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions carefully, keep things clean and tidy, and send regular updates so you know how your furry friend is doing. No matter where I care for them, I treat every pet like my own with patience and affection.

“I took my dog, Frenkie, to Iris. She is just amazing. I was a bit nervous about bringing my dog to a carer but Iris is wonderfully calm and serene. She reassured me at every step. She sent beautiful photos of Frenkie throughout her stay. Frenkie is a a very energetic dog but Iris was so good with her. I can highly recommend Iris.”

“Took great care of my terrier while the family explored Montréal on our road trip sending lots of pics and keeping him away from the overconfident squirrels in the park nearby”
