Dagopvang Harderwijk

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.

“Super atentas con doby, han sabido cuidarle a el y a sus necesidades especiales al ser un perrito con parálisis. No se quería volver a casa! Repetiremos segruo!!! Muchas gracias chicas ❤️”

“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.”

“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!”

“Super happy with how it went! Will book again”

“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!”

“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”

“Cristina did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Chopp, for the day. She was very attentive and caring, making sure he felt comfortable and happy. I really appreciated the regular photo updates and great communication, which gave me peace of mind. Chopp was clearly well looked after, and I couldn’t have asked for better care. I’d highly recommend Cristina to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Alessandra was such a sweetheart and booking was super easy. My doggy seemed really happy. 🐶🤍”

“Burce was a great dogsitter for Coda! She sent lots of pictures and videos and I could tell my dog was feeling good with her (much more than with other dogsitters in the past). She took care of Coda together with her sister which I think is nice for the energy in a house. Would highly recommend her, thanks again :-)”

“Vera was incredibly helpful we needed last minute doggy day care for our pup. I would highly recommend her services”

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.

“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 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: Growing up with a family dog and lots of cats, I’ve developed a deep love and understanding of animals. You can rely on my experience to provide attentive and loving care. Because this isn’t just a job for me - it’s something I truly need as I miss my pets from back home deeply. I’m currently doing my master’s degree at artez and not working anywhere else. I do have a flexible schedule that we can discuss for me to hopefully take care of your furry friends :) I’m not able to have pets in my place as I’m living in a student house but I’d be happy to take care of them in their own environments.

“Heel aardige en goede oppas! Lola van 15 voelde zich snel thuis en was in goede handen.”

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.

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: Hi, I’m Joey, I 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 work from home, 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.

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!
