Dagopvang Leiderdorp

“We had such a fantastic experience with Megan and her partner Ryenn! Before the booking, we did a pre-meet and it was clear right away that they were absolute naturals with dogs. Beanie, our mini Teckel/ Dachshund, loved them from the very first moment and that immediately put us at ease. Whilst we were away they stuck closely to Beanie’s routine, which I'm sure really helped her feel at home. They took her on walks, played with her, and showered her with attention. They even tried to walk her in the rain (despite her strong opinions about that!) — it just showed how committed and thoughtful they were in giving her the best care. We also really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which reassured us that she was happy and in great hands. Beanie looked so comfortable and well-loved the whole time (we absolutely loved getting pictures of her curled up on the sofa with them! Just showed how much she loved them as she doesn't normally do that!). We’re incredibly grateful for the care they gave her and will 100% book them again. Highly recommended!”

Over: IMPORTANT: I have several regular clients who re-book outside of the app, through personal contact so my total completed booking number is more than stated on my profile. I’m very grateful for their trust, and they are keen to give references those who ask. Hi cat owners! I'm Derin. I did my bachelor's in Art History at Leiden University and am now doing my master's in Museum Studies at the University of Amsterdam while working in collection management at the Zaans Museum. I love cold weather, the smell of coffee and cinnamon at 7am, vividly hallucinating with my books, smelling the spot behind the ears of a cat and solo traveling. I’ve been a cat owner for over ten years. In total, my parents and I have cared for three cats, and we’re lucky to still share our lives with two of them. Like many cat families, we have the full spectrum of personalities: a fluffy cuddle-lover and a more gothic, distant–yet-affectionate soul. What has always amazed me about cats is the way they teach us to see companionship differently. Being together while each doing our own thing feels like the purest form of company. Their smallest moments of joy or excitement genuinely make my day. I don’t catsit for the money—which is also why I ask for the minimum possible price on the app—but because after spending a few years without cats, I realised just how much I missed their presence. I never mind going the extra mile when it’s in their best interest. Your cats’ happiness, comfort, and health are always my top priorities. I’m currently on track to finish my MA thesis and work part time in exhibition & artist operations, so I get to spare at least one hour for each visit to your cats. I always ask for emergency vet information and pet passports as well as any special needs or circumstances to look out for that are special to your cat. In case of indoor cats I open doors attentively and don’t leave large open windows. I pay attention to your cat’s eating, drinking and litter box habits.

“We had a fantastic experience with Manuela. Not only was she extremely accommodating and flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times, but she also did a great job keeping us in the loop. We loved getting photos and a video showing how much fun our dogs were having. It made being away from our dogs so much easier. Highly recommend!”

“Liza is very kind. Frans enjoyed his stay with Liza very much. Liza send funny photos and updates of Frans during his stay. I would surely recomment Liza!”

Over: Hoi! Ik ben Lucy, een echte dierenliefhebber met jarenlange ervaring in het verzorgen van zowel honden als katten van allerlei rassen, groottes en karakters. Ik vind dat huisdieren net zoveel liefde, geduld en aandacht verdienen als ieder ander gezinslid, en dat is precies wat ik bij elke boeking wil bieden. Of het nu gaat om lange wandelingen, lekker spelen, knuffelen of het aanhouden van de vaste routine van je huisdier: ik zorg ervoor dat jouw dier zich veilig, gelukkig en geliefd voelt wanneer jij er niet bent. Ik voel me op mijn gemak met allerlei soorten huisdieren, van energieke puppy’s tot oudere dieren die wat extra rust, aandacht of medicatie nodig hebben. I am currently working from home on my own hours so I have plenty of time to take care, play with and walk your amazing pet! When caring for pets in my flat, I make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family. I live in a pet friendly flat near Battersea Park. Pets have plenty of space to play, nap, and get all the attention they need. When I’m looking after pets in their own home, I always follow your routines closely, from feeding times to walks and cuddles, to keep everything consistent and stress free. I keep my home tidy, your pet happy, and send regular photo updates so you always know how things are going!

Over: I’ve been caring for cats for over 7 years and truly love spending time with animals. I have hands-on experience feeding, grooming, cleaning litter boxes, understanding cat behavior, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also have experience caring for my friend’s dog, including feeding, walking, playing, and providing companionship. My husband, Islam, shares my love for animals and grew up in a home where his family cared for different pets. He is actively involved in caring for every pet that stays with us, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, and giving them plenty of love and attention. We live in a spacious three-story house with plenty of indoor space for pets to relax and feel comfortable. Together, we provide a safe, calm, and loving environment, treating every pet like a member of our family while carefully following each owner’s care instructions. I currently spend most of my time at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. My husband also helps me care for our guests, so your pet will rarely be alone. I follow each pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live in a spacious three story house with plenty of room for pets to relax indoors. Our home is clean, calm, and petfriendly. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions. My husband and I work together to make sure every pet receives lots of attention, affection, and a safe, loving environment.

“As new dog-owners, we were quite nervous for his first time away from us, but these patient and experienced dog-sitters did an amazing job. Frequent updates and pictures were provided and we are sure our pup had a great time there! Highly recommended!”

Over: I grew up in a home with both cats and dogs, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve been looking after pets for over 15 years, including my own dog as well as dogs and cats belonging to friends, family, and clients. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior animals requiring extra patience and attention. Having lived in both Canada and the UK, I’ve cared for a wide variety of breeds, temperaments, and routines. I’ve recently relocated from London and am excited to continue offering reliable, attentive, and loving pet care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I always aim to make animals feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Available to: - Comfortable administering medication - Experience with reactive or anxious dogs - Familiar with long walks, feeding schedules, and basic training reinforcement - Available for overnight stays, walks, or drop-in visits - Happy to send regular photo/video updates I’m not currently working, so I’ll have plenty of time with your dogs/cats! I’m have open availability for boarding, happy to pickup if need be as well. I have a fenced garden and one small dog of my own to help keep them company. I’m happy to have them sleep on the bed, but can also crate them if that’s what they are used to.

Over: Hi everyone!
 My name is Divya, but you can call me Div :) Im from Spain and im ethnically Indian. I am 22 years old and I am doing my masters in clinical psychology at Leiden University.
 I’ve always taken care of caring for pets, whether it was friends' pets growing up or now spoiling my boyfriend’s cats! I treat every pet like my own babies, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away!
 I love both cats and dogs equally! And very open to love any other kinds of pets :) I live in a pet-friendly apartment on the first floor with a small fenced terrace (stairs only!), and my roommate is also a huge cat lover. 
If you have any questions or specific requests, feel free to text me! I’d love to care for your furry family member while you are away!☺️♥️ 
‼️Please keep my pet preferences in mind, as I can't take care of large dogs, and I do not speak Dutch‼️ I am currently studying full term, and only have 2 classes a week. Besides this I spend my time at home playing videogames or working on my thesis. I also hang out with friends, but when im taking care of a fur baby, I make sure that their needs are met first or even inviting my friends over to my place for them to get double the care and love☺️ I have taken care of both dogs and cats before, and I make sure to spend time around them and see what they feel comfortable with! With dogs, I would prefer to walk them in more quiet places or their usual trail to make them feel comfortable! And when taking care of pets at home, I make sure windows are always closed and never leave out any food or dangerous items!

“Rustige man en mijn hond Kees was gelijk op haar gemak. Bij thuiskomst niks aan haar gemerkt dat ze bij iemand anders was geweest. Fijne ervaring voor Kees en mij.”

Over: I grew up with dogs at home, so I understand them very well. For the past few years, I have been dogsitting for different people and in different parts of the world. I love going for walks and giving pets the attention they need. Your dog will be in safe and happy hands with me! The is a dog park right next to where I live. I also have a huge fenced area at home where they will be able to run free multiple times a day! :) I speak English and Dutch. I work remotely as a freelancer and manage my own hours. This makes me very flexible, allowing me to spend plenty of quality time with the dogs both inside and outside the house. Since I do not have any pets of my own, your dog will receive my full attention and have the entire space to themselves. I am very careful with safety and will always make sure your dog feels comfortable and secure in my home.

Over: Sinds mijn 11e zorg ik al voor honden en dit is alleen maar meer geworden sinds mijn ouders een labradoodle hebben. Deze is inmiddels 8 jaar en blijft geregeld slapen. Daarnaast pas ik ook op honden van vrienden. Dit zie ik echt als een passie omdat ik zelf niet in de gelegenheid ben om een hond fulltime te verzorgen vanwege mijn kantoorwerk. Momenteel heb ik veel tijd omdat mijn nieuwe functie 1 oktober dit jaar start. Ik ben dan ook zeer flexibel in mijn planning en sta ook open voor last minute verzoeken. Ik heb een appartement waar ik zo goed mogelijk voor jouw hond zal zorgen. Ik wil graag een vertrouwde omgeving creëren en snap dat dit per hond en karakter verschilt.

Over: Hoi, (Ter info: mijn tarief voor opvang met overnachting is altijd 25 euro. Rover.com past dit aan naar 30 als je in het hoofdseizoen boekt, maar dat lossen we samen wel op!) Mijn ervaring: Ik ben opgegroeid met kleine (asiel)hondjes thuis en in 2011 heb ik voor het eerst een maand vrijwilligerswerk gedaan in Spanje bij een hondenasiel. In de jaren daaropvolgend heb ik in verschillende buitenlandse asielen vrijwilligerswerk gedaan (zie foto's). Daar heb ik toen ook mijn eerste hondje geadopteerd toen ze 10 jaar oud was. Ik heb in 2019 een opleiding gedaan over hondengedrag en heb natuurlijk van mijn eigen hondjes ook veel geleerd. Mijn tweede hondje heb ik in 2020 geadopteerd, ook op latere leeftijd. Eind 2024 is zij overleden en sindsdien heb ik besloten om hondenoppas te worden, want ik miste het gezelschap wel! Ik heb dus veel ervaring met (oude) hondjes en heb zelfs nog een hondenbuggy hier thuis staan voor als jouw hondje wel mee wil op lange wandelingen, maar dat niet meer goed kan. Daarnaast werk ik ook als vrijwilliger elke vrijdag bij een hondendagopvang waar de honden in een groep samen zijn, waardoor ik nog meer leer over hondengedrag. Momenteel studeer ik thuis (Besluit Houders van Dieren; honden en katten) en werk ik een dag in de week als kinderoppas (10 en 12 jaar oud). Daar is de hond altijd welkom. Wat belangrijk is om te weten: Ik woon alleen en als de hond voor vakantieopvang naar mij toekomt, moet de hond wel even zonder stress alleen thuis kunnen zijn. Ik wil namelijk wel boodschappen kunnen doen of naar mijn dansles kunnen gaan zonder dat de hond dan thuis in paniek raakt. Honden zijn bij mij welkom in het hele huis, ook op de bank (samen een filmpje kijken is wel zo gezellig!). Ze mogen alleen niet op mijn bed komen, maar als je hondje blijft slapen dan staat er altijd een fijn hondenbed naast mijn bed (of zijn/haar eigen bed). Honden zijn natuurlijk groepsdieren en daar houd ik graag rekening mee. Ik ben het gewend dat ik ze overal mee naartoe neem in de auto en zo min mogelijk alleen laat. Ik vind het juist leuk als de hond overal mee naartoe kan.

“Amazing! Our puppy loved staying with Makiko and her husband. The communication was great and they followed our instructions to a T. Definitely recommend!”

Over: I am passionate about dogs and all dogs are my dear guests :) I am a musician and since I was a child I have lived with dogs and even cats, I live with my girlfriend and we also have an intelligent and very sociable male Border Collie ( What you see in profile picture). I am available for Dog-sitting and Dog-Walking services in my area and possibly other areas too (Write me talk about it) I also love playing with them so after the walk I will take your dog to one of the specific places for dogs in the area and let's play :) Sono appassionato dei cani e tutti i cani sono i miei cari ospiti :) sono musicista e da quando ero piccolo sono vissuto con i cani e anche i gatti , vivo con la mia ragazza e abbiamo anche un Border collie maschio moto intelligente e molto socievole (Quello che si vede in foto di profilo). Sono disponibile per i servizi di Dog-sitting e Dog-Walking nella mia zona e eventualmente anche altre zone (Scrivetemi ne parliamo) Amo giocare anche con loro quindi dopo la passeggiata porterò il tuo cane a uno dei posti specifici per i cani in zona e giochiamo :)
