Kattenoppas in Leiderdorp

“Joy really helped me out by being available on very short notice right before the Christmas holidays. My cats are very shy of humans but she managed to get a glimpse of them. This means my cats weren't much intimidated by her. The rats were also comfortable with her. Joy is a trustworthy person who makes lovely reports when she has visited my pets.”

Over: My whole life I have lived with pets, even with owning several at the same time, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs and others, all with different temperaments. I am able to perform any animal-related tasks, including walking, feeding, giving medicine, playing, cleaning after, etc. I am a full-time psychology student, which allows ms very flexible weekly schedule. Additionally, I am homebody, so I can spend a lot of time indoors. However, on top of that I love being outdoors on walks and runs, during all times of the day. I have a cosy, small studio apartment in the city center, without any roommates nor animals present. The surrounding area outside is in close proximity to nature areas and dog parks.

“Je recommande les services d’Ivory. Très à l’écoute et professionnelle. Merci beaucoup!”

“Derin was great with my cats Bella and Worf. She accommodated Worfs special diet and paid attention that cats eat their individual foods. Also Bella is very shy cat and has problems with new people and Derin managed to gain her trust and Bella really liked her. So I will definitely book Derin for cat sitting again!”

“Megan did an outstanding job with two of my dogs while I was out of town. On time daily and sent pics each time she visited. Megan always stayed in contact with me to update on how the dogs where doing. Will definitely be using her again. Highly Recommend.”

Over: Ik ben opgegroeid met honden en katten dus heb erg veel ervaring. Ik weet hoe ik met ze om moet gaan en ik vind het leuk om ook andere dieren te kunnen helpen. :) Soms heb ik weinig school waardoor ik veel tijd vrij heb thuis. In het weekend kan ik sowieso 2 hele dagen dus dat komt goed uit! Ik heb een dichte tuin. Ook heb ik een lieve hond en ook nog een aantal lieve katten. Ze kunnen allemaal prima om gaan met andere dieren. Ik heb ook een veldje voor de deur waar ik met de dieren kan spelen en ze uit kan laten.

“Ella was absolutely amazing in taking care of our 2 cats. They both felt very comfortable with her and we were very reassured that she came to take care of them! We will undoubtely ask her to keep our cats again!”

Over: I have taken care of both dogs and cats, with experiences in house-sitting and shorter daytime visits. I've walked every type of dog from an anxious and elderly rescue, to a beagle who pulls the leash at every new smell, and to large dogs who can walk for hours and get excited at every squirrel we pass. I have grown up with both cats and a dog in my own home, and gained experience caring for them and their specific needs and wants as they reached their final years. I also have a lot of experience in childcare, which has made me hyper-responsible and patient. I love animals of all kinds and will always ensure they are safe and happy. I am currently a student at Leiden University and have classes a couple days per week. Meaning, I can come to your house whenever I am not in class! My schedule is very flexible and I am available for nights and weekends too. I can walk any type of dog big or small, clean up poop in the yard, and clean cat's litter boxes. I can also keep up with basic household chores if desired. I will also give lots of love and snuggles to your animals!

Over: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats. I grew up with dogs and understand them. Cared for difficult, senior, disabled, hyperactive dogs and puppies. I am a distance runner and also run with dogs. I care for their individual needs. Available long term. I work on my master’s and make time to walk or run with your pet. Play with them and feed them too. I keep them company. I care for water, food, walking, playing and even running. I specialize in energetic, senior and difficult dogs. Their needs are your needs which are my needs.

“Jelena was super kind and attentive! She managed to squeeze my cat Milo in her busy schedule during the holidays because I couldn't find a sitter last minute. Having her check on Milo made me feel at ease when traveling. He was well taken care of and it helped seeing a photo or video of him while away. Thank you Jelena! ”

“Ilona heeft fantastisch voor onze hond gezorgd. Ze hebben samen gespeeld, gewandeld en gerust. Ik kan haar 100% aanbevelen!”

Over: 👋🏻 Hi there! My name is Liza - a project manager, currently looking for a job, who loves spending time with cats and dogs between job interviews and dutch classes. I have been helping to look after cats and dogs for over 20 years. And as I have a cat of my own, I understand all the fears pet owners have when they need to leave their furry friends alone. So you can be sure that I always try to give each pet plenty of attention (if they want it), and treat them all as if they were my own. 🦮 Dog walking Walks for one household at a time (no groups walks). Calm, focused walks of 30-45 minutes. 🐈‍⬛ Cat sitting For cats with outdoor access (for example via a staircase to the street), I can only accept the booking if the cat wears a collar with an AirTag, for safety reasons. 🛏️ Pet sitting (at your home) Although I do not offer an overnight stay service, I understand how important it is for your pet to feel safe in familiar surroundings. What’s more, not every owner wants a stranger to stay overnight in their home unsupervised. That’s why we can always arrange for me to be at your home almost around the clock (excluding overnight stays). -Each stay covers up to 12-hour period. Longer stays can be discussed individually, for an extra fee -3 walks per day included for dogs. Additional walks available for an extra fee -Each additional pet: +€5 per stay 💬 Communication & Care I know how important is to feel connected with your pet while you're away. I'm always more than happy to send short updates, photos or videos, so you can relax knowing everything is going well (as often as you like). To make sure your pet feels safe and happy, please share: -Feeding schedule and any allergies -Favorite toys and play routine -Walk times, habits, and special needs I can also water plants, collect mail and help with small home tasks while you're away 📍Important notes 🐾 A meet & greet is required before confirming any booking 🏡 I do not host pets in my apartment 🛤️ Public transport or taxi, depending on time and location are usually charged separately ✨ I'd love to meet you and your furry friend! Let's make your apart stress-free, with plenty of tail wags and purrs 🐶🐾 I'm currently looking for a job. And apart from job interviews and dutch classes (online) I have plenty of time for your pets. Most of the time I'm free from 10 a.m. till 6 p.m. But time slots could be discussed. I understand that all pets are different, with their own personalities and habits. First and foremost, when looking after pets, I rely on the owners’ recommendations, as they know best how to interact with their furry friends. I also believe that we must meet in person before booking. You never know, your pet might not like me at all, and there’s absolutely no point in making them anxious unnecessarily whilst you’re away.

Over: Honden komen altijd op mij af. Ik maak elke dag een lange wandeling en zou het natuurlijk fantastisch vinden als jou gezellige viervoeter mij hierbij vergezelt. Ik zorg thuis voor een lieve oude kat. Omdat ik met pensioen ben heb ik meer tijd en zou graag ook voor andere dieren zorgen. Ik zorg thuis voor een lieve oude kat.

Over: Hi! My name is Sofia, I’m a 23-year-old Italian Master's student living in The Hague. I’m a passionate animal lover with years of hands-on experience taking care of dogs – especially my two lovely Cocker Spaniels back home in Italy. Growing up with dogs taught me how to understand their needs, read their body language, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Since moving to the Netherlands, I’ve really missed spending time with dogs – so I’d love to help care for yours! Whether your pup needs a calm walk around the neighborhood or a more energetic outing, I adapt easily to their personality and preferences. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m available on weekdays and weekends with flexible hours. If you’re looking for a caring, reliable dog walker who treats your furry friend like family, feel free to reach out! 🐶💛 I’m available for dog walking and pet sitting all the week (including weekends), preferably in the afternoons and evenings. But we can discuss what are your needs. For me, safety and trust are the top priorities: I can guarantee a calm and controlled environment and my care adapts to your pet's needs. I offer flexible services, ensuring reliable and loving treatment at your home and outside. My goal is to always provide a safe and trusting environment for your four-legged friend :)

“Leo was very nice for my cat Sammy. She kept me informed, sent pictures and liked Sammy very much. So good to know that your cat is in good hands. I hope she can take care of Sammy another time!!”

Over: Hi! I'm a master student studying Cognitive Neuroscience at Leiden University and am working as a barista as well ☕ After living in Japan for 15 months and being severely cat-deprived, I decided to sign up here to get to meet some local cats! Growing up my family has always had cats, and I still love to go back to my parents' place to see my anxious, screamy, and very orange cat Gringo :) I often cat-sit for friends and friends' friends, and am a cat cafe connoisseur ☕ My whole family are big cat lovers and me & my siblings got matching cat tattoos :) My favorite type of cats are old scruffy ones, but all cats are welcome of course!

Over: Hi everyone! My name is Makiko, I am from Tokyo, Japan. I live in Leiden, Hoge Mors zone. I am a housewife, so I am very flexible with time and I would love to help you with your pet. Please feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything or just want to ask me something. I can't imagine how life is without animals, which I love so much. I was born in a town surrounded by nature with many animals like cows, sheeps, raccoons, monkeys, and many others. I spent my all life with dogs in Japan, Italy, and the Netherlands taking care of my dogs, friends' dogs and neighborhood dogs! I enjoy it so much! I love taking care of pets, cats and dogs of any size, gender and age and taking care of more than one dog is not a problem for me thanks to all the experience I have collected during the last 10 years, abroad and in the Netherlands, with so many different dogs. I am very patient, scrupulous, punctual and careful. The happiness of the pets and the satisfaction of the owners are the absolute priority. I will follow carefully your instructions concerning all aspects of the life of your pet (walking duration, dietary necessities, playing attitude and more). If you live with a cat just let me know what life style he prefers and I will follow your instructions. If you have a dog, I can bring him for walk and play whit him accordingly with his needs. Old dogs need a short walk, other dogs need to run and play longer and more time per day. I will help your dog to maintain his lifestyle the closest as possible to the one she is used with you. My house is a house with a garden with a fence and spacious green areas close by. There is a lot of space to walk in the surrounding area. I live with my husband, my 14 years old daughter and one English bulldog (7 year-old). The pet guest staying at my place will have the space to sleep accordingly with what kind of pet is and your instructions. I am looking forward to reading from you and I wish you a great day. Makiko p.s. Prices for Dog Boarding, Doggy day care and House sitting are just a reference, so please contact me and let's discuss about. The rate changes accordingly to how log your pet needs my assistance. Thank you for your understanding. Currently my main occupation is pet sitting. I visit daily several dog, cats, rabbits, parrots and so on. Please feel free to contact me anytime. Safety is the first point for me. I am always very scrupulous while taking care of your pet. I will send you each time a photo of your pet to show you how he is going.

Over: Ik heb op de middelbare school les gehad in dieren verzorging in theorie en praktijk. Ook hebben we thuis al sinds ik mij kan herinneren dieren thuis. Ik laat elke dag de hond uit en geef hem eten en aandacht, ik pas ook vaak op huisdieren van vrienden en familie ik heb dus ook ervaring met meerdere honden en katten Omdat ik zelf een ouder hondje heb die aan het dementeren is, let ik altijd goed op tijdens bijv het uitlaten. Hij loopt ook erg veel rond maar omdat hij niet meer zo goed kan zien let ik dan ook goed op dat die zich niet klem loopt

Over: Ik ben opgevoed met honden en katten vanaf mijn geboorte. Mijn moeder is honden trainster geweest, dus daar een hoop ervaring van gekregen! Ik heb echt van alles verzorgt van sterke pitbulls tot de meest schattige Berner sennen ;) Dit ging dan om verzorgen, uitlaten, spelen en verzorgen. Ik heb dit eigenlijk altijd voor mijn ouders en familie gedaan en wil nu graag ook voor andere mensen doen en zodat ik daar jullie bij kan helpen met de leuke beestjes❤️ Ik werk in de beveiliging dus vooral nacht werk maar meestal ben ik wakker om een uurtje 11:00 in de ochtend. Vanaf dan ben ik beschikbaar! Bij mij thuis wordt een beetje lastig aangezien ik nog thuis woon, maar ik vind het zeker niet erg om bij u thuis de hond te verzorgen en aandacht te geven!

“I had a great experience with Xinyue! She took amazing care of my cat and they got along super well. It made me feel at ease seeing the updates everyday. I would highly recommend her services! ”
