“Such a wonderful and friendly family! They were super attentive and kept us updated with lots of pictures of our dog. We felt completely at ease leaving our pup with them.”

“I highly recommend Rita! She was an amazing sitter for Hunter. She sent me daily videos, photos, and updates, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the updates that Hunter was very happy and well cared for. Her consistent communication and attention to detail made the entire experience completely worry-free. Rita is a wonderful, caring, and trustworthy sitter, and I am extremely happy with her service. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Austin was a wonderful pet sitter for our puppy! He sent great updates and we could relax knowing our dog was well cared for and loved while we were away. We’ve already rebooked with Austin for the next time we’re away. I highly recommend Austin!”

Over: Hi! I’m Suria, a calm, reliable and caring animal lover. I’ve always had animals around me and really enjoy getting to know their different personalities. I offer dog walking, home visits, pet sitting and overnight stays. When looking after your pet, I like to stick to their usual routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and relaxed. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles or simply giving them some space, I always try to follow what works best for them. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to discuss their routine, personality and anything I should keep in mind beforehand. I’m patient with animals and always respect their boundaries. I’m also happy to arrange a meet & greet beforehand, so you can get to know me and feel comfortable leaving your pet in my care. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! 🐶🐱🐦 Dutch/English I work part-time remotely, so I have plenty of time to look after pets. Because I work from home, they’re rarely left alone. I’m flexible on both weekdays and weekends and happy to work around their usual routine. We can arrange visit times together based on what works best for you and your pet. Whether your pet stays with me or I look after them in their own home, I always want them to feel safe, comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible and take the time to get to know their personality and needs. At my home, I make sure they have a calm and comfortable space and plenty of attention, while at their own home I keep things as familiar as possible. I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep you updated during their stay or visit.

Over: I have two cats who are 8 and 4 years old. I have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I can do home visit and dog walking. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your dogs and cats! I'm available for boarding at weekends, and on weekdays after 3pm I have a garden and also two friendly cats who can keep your baby company. If not I live by the beach and I can take your baby to the beach

Over: Een aantal jaar geleden had ik een oppas gezin met nog twee puppys erbij waar ik ook voor oppaste. Verder heeft mijn oma altijd honden gehad. Ook is mijn zusje dierenarts en laat ze me altijd veel zien. Ik werk parttime waardoor ik de woensdagen vrij ben. De za en zo doe ik vaak rustig aan en maak ik vaak wandelingen en daar past een hond goed bij. Ik woon in een appartement met een groot balkon die veilig omringd is door dichte hekken. Verder is er veel natuur in de buurt en de molenplas.

“We boarded our Samoyed girl with Ramón for the Easter holiday and couldn’t be happier. Ramon accepted the booking after kindly arranging a meet and greet. Ramon and Austin really listened to the care taking instructions and have Polar groomed perfectly. We will definitely come back in the future”

Over: I've had dogs all my life, however in the past 15 years I have focused on senior pet rescue, foster, and hospice. One of our dogs even had a pace maker! I have extensive experience in medication administration and a deep love for all animals. Right now we have a senior toothless chihuahua which is why we limit the size of pets we take in our home. However, if you have a large dog that is older extremely gentle and mild mannered we can discuss having our dogs meet and exceptions can be made. I would also consider a 2nd dog from the same household. Between my husband and I one of us is always home with our senior so no one will be left unattended. If I am coming to your pet I accept everyone and adapt to your pets individual needs and environment. The environment we provide is calm, safe, comfortable, and quiet with constant supervision. Pets are allowed on the furniture with pet stairs and blankets provided. If I am coming to your home I adapt to your pets needs and environment to keep it as routine as possible for them.

“The Chiba’s staying was amazing! Kemely did everything I ask and even more (feeding, brushing, walking, cleaning..). He had a lot of fun and even didn’t want to go home)) Kemely, thank you co much for your caring and attention to Chiba! We definitely will come back!”

“We had an excellent experience with Paola and Salvatore. Our dog, Ziggy, stayed with them for two weeks, and despite sometimes struggling with separation anxiety, he seemed relaxed, happy, and very comfortable from the start. They kept us updated daily with messages and photos/videos, which we really appreciated. When we picked Ziggy up, he was calm, happy, and clearly very fond of them. We would happily leave him in their care again. Highly recommend!”

Kelsey K.

“Anastasia is a wonderful sitter and I highly recommend considering to book her as your sitter. She was absolutely wonderful with my senior dog that comes with special medical needs. Anastasia asked all the right questions and was very eager to provide the best care possible. She fully succeeded and I could tell my dog was very comfortable in her home. Anastasia is easy to communicate with, trustworthy, responds quickly, has a neat and tidy home, and is overall a lovely person. 5 star review, 100% would book again.”

Over: Hi there ! I am Valeria and I’m originally from Peru but I have been living in the Netherlands for a few years now. A year and a half ago I got myself a dog (Copito) and he became family right away. In Peru, I have always lived surrounded by dogs (3 actually 😅) and now I am more than happy to share my life with Copito and hopefully your dog 🐶. I am very flexible and can accommodate to any requests. I will do whatever I need to make sure your dog feels at home. ♥️ I work from home on Monday’s, Wednesdays and Friday’s and I am home during the weekends, I can be flexible with time and can work around schedules. I have a small garden for your dog, and together with Copito (my dog), we will make sure your dog always has company :) Of course if there any preferences, we can make it work.

“Very happy with Loes. She took very good care of our dog and made long walks. For sure our dog loved it as well. Can recommend Loes to everybody!”

My home is quiet, cozy, and perfect for pets who enjoy a calm environment I grew up surrounded by animals. My family has always had both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has been a part of my life since childhood.

Over: About Me & My Motivation

Hi! I’m an animal lover based in Zandvoort, and I’ve always had a deep connection with pets. I lived with my own cat for 3 years, which taught me about trust, patience, and emotional bonding with animals. I also previously volunteered at a local cat café where I cared for 7 resident cats—feeding them, monitoring their behavior, and providing attention tailored to their unique personalities, which gave me wonderful experience.

In addition to short-term care like dog walking, home visits, and playtime, I can now host your furry friends in my own home. Whether they stay at my place or I visit yours, my goal is to make sure your pet feels loved and safe while you’re away.

🔹 Availability

I am generally available in the morning, afternoon, and early evening, depending on the day. Feel free to ask about specific times.

🔹 Services Offered

 Pet Boarding (hosting pets in my own home)
 Dog Walking (20–45 minutes, depending on your pet’s needs)
 Home Visits (30 minutes to 1 hour; longer stays available on request)
 House Sitting (overnight stays in your home)
 Administering Oral Medication
 Basic Training Reinforcement (during walks/play)
 Note: I do not offer grooming or injection services.

🔹 During Care (At My Home or Yours)

I will regularly feed your pets, refresh their water, clean litter boxes, and spend plenty of quality time with them. If I am visiting or staying at your home, I can also water plants and bring in the mail upon request. I am highly respectful of your home, ensuring windows and doors are secure, and I use lights responsibly to simulate presence.

🔹 Vaccination Policy

For safety and hygiene reasons, I only work with fully vaccinated pets.
I treat every pet like a companion, not just a responsibility. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and giving them the care they deserve. I am generally available in the morning, afternoon, and early evening for dog walking and home visits. Since I focus on coming to your home, I can easily adapt my schedule to fit your pet's routine, offering walks (20–45 mins) or longer house-sitting stays to keep them company. I treat every pet like a companion and respect your home as if it were my own. During house sitting, I ensure windows and doors are secure and lights are used responsibly. I can also water plants and bring in the mail, ensuring your pet feels safe and loved in their own environment.

Over: Ik heb 14 jaar een eigen hond gehad en daardoor veel ervaring opgedaan met dagelijkse verzorging, wandelen en het aanvoelen van honden. Daarnaast heb ik regelmatig met veel plezier op honden van anderen gepast. Ik ben rustig, betrouwbaar en geef graag persoonlijke aandacht. Daarom kies ik er ook bewust voor om met één hond tegelijk te wandelen, zodat jouw hond alle rust en aandacht krijgt. Ik ben redelijk flexibel en probeer mij zoveel mogelijk aan te passen aan de vraag van een baasje. Als ik het van tevoren weet, is er vaak veel mogelijk om tijd vrij te maken voor een wandeling. Ik ben vooral beschikbaar in de avonden, weekenden en overdag. Ik bied vooral wandelingen aan en verzorging bij het baasje thuis, zodat de hond in zijn of haar vertrouwde omgeving kan blijven. Ik vind rust, veiligheid en persoonlijke aandacht belangrijk en zorg natuurlijk voor voldoende beweging en aandacht tijdens de wandelingen. In overleg is opvang bij mij thuis eventueel ook mogelijk wanneer dat echt nodig is. Ik laat een hond niet zomaar alleen en kijk goed naar wat het dier nodig heeft.
