Dagopvang Lingewaal

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.

“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.”

Over: (honden,katten,konijnen,knaagdieren)
 alle soorten en maten ben ik mee opgegroeid:) Thuis hebben we nu 2 honden (Akita/Heder & ChowChow) en hebben we nog 2 katten. De Chowchow is mijn eigen hond en ik weet hoeveel dieren voor je kunnen betekenen. Gewend om met twee honden tegelijk te lopen die absoluut niet makkelijk zijn en een eigenwijs karakter hebben. Ook heb ik meerdere cursussen met ze gedaan dus weet waar bepaald gedrag vandaan komt.
Regelmatig pas ik bij kennissen en familieleden op hun dieren in huis. Inmiddels ervaringen met verschillende dieren en rassen.Ik heb er dan ook geen moeite mee om op verschillende dieren te passen.
Dus Ervaring met andere honden heb ik, zowel groot als klein! Ik ben vrij flexibel als het om tijden gaat weekend of avonden maken voor mij niet uit :) bij mij is er veel mogelijk van lange tot korte wandelingen tot in huis komen oppassen. Momenteel heb ik geen vaste baan en plan mijn eigen diensten in. Zo ben ik flexibel in het aannemen van dieren en ben ik veel thuis. Woon samen in een appartement met mijn hond. Super lieve en gemakkelijke hond. Ze is gewend met andere honden die bij mij thuis komen maar heb haar ook vaak mee genomen naar andere oppas adressen :)

“Life offers BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE MEETINGS !!! Tatiana is definitely one of them !!! She has been WONDERFUL with our 6 months dog, she took care of him for 3 days. She even had to give him his medication. We couldn't find better than Tatiana to take so great care of our dog, a REAL GIFT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her !!! Thank you Tatiana.”

“Shiho is very considerate, and took great care of our dog. Communication was wonderful, both before to our appointment and throughout the booking with regular updates. I am sure, she truly cares about dogs and their wellbeing and gladly accomodates special requests. In case of questions or uncertain situations (nothing major, just "particular" behavior which is difficult to judge if you are not familiar with a certain dog), she was quick to communicate and we could resolve everything which gave both sides more confidence. Overallm, very positive experience and I am confident to book again in future.”

Over: I have a close relationship with my dog back home and now looking forward to take care or spend my time with some pets away from home. Love to take them for walks and overnight care. It is important for me to know there routines and behaviour for the best care I can give. I have a Labrador that is 8 years’ old he is hyperactive and I have been able to understand dog behaviours and needs to keep them happy. I have walked pets earlier too of different age and sizes. I'm mostly available on the weekends and evenings with flexible timings. Timings can be spoken based on the need and some days, I can also make it in weekdays and work while taking care of your pet. I have an decent sized apartment and wouldn't mind the pet going around the house and use my furniture's to chill if they are used to doing that. I will do my best to make them feel like home when I have them over at mine.

Over: Ik heb het geluk gehad om vaak op te mogen passen op de leukste hondjes van vrienden. Dit is iets wat ik vaker wil doen! Ik werk als zzp'er vanuit huis dus ik ben heel flexibel en met genoeg tijd om voldoende aandacht te kunnen geven aan de hondjes. Ik woon in een vrijstaand huis met een grote omheinde tuin. Dus er kan vaak genoeg een frisse neus gehaald worden! Ook zijn mijn ouders vaak thuis om op te passen, mocht ik weg moeten. Er is daarom altijd wel iemand thuis.

Over: I previously owned a Toy Poodle, Shiba Inu, and Chihuahua before moving to the Netherlands. While living in a shared home, I also took care of my flatmate’s dog (an Indochina Dingo) whenever she was away. I work as a Data Analyst from 9 to 5. Since I work from home three days a week—usually Monday, Wednesday, and Friday—I spend a lot of time at home. On weekends, I enjoy staying active, exercising both outdoors and at home, especially with several parks near my apartment. I love interacting with pets—talking to them, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. At home, they’re free to move around and relax, with the only rule being that they’re not allowed on the bed work as a Data Analyst from 9 to 5. Since I work from home three days a week—usually Monday, Wednesday, and Friday—I spend a lot of time at home. On weekends, I enjoy staying active, exercising both outdoors and at home, especially with several parks located near my apartment. I live in an apartment building in a neighborhood that’s home to many pet owners. The area has plenty of nearby parks and is known for being safe, quiet, and very pet-friendly. Inside, my home offers enough space for dogs to move around comfortably, play in the living room, and explore the rest of the house.

Over: With years of experience caring for pets of all kinds, I make sure every walk, feed, or playtime is safe, calm, and full of attention. I treat every pet as if it’s my own. I work part-time, which means I have lots of free hours to give your pets the care and playtime they deserve. Available weekdays after 2pm and all weekend for boarding or walks. I care deeply about creating a safe, trusting environment for every animal I look after. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet company, your pet will always feel at home with me.

“Vatsala was amazing!!! My wedding was this past Saturday and we needed someone to watch our pups all day during the festivities. We couldn’t have chosen anyone better for such an important day. Vatsala and her fiance were the sweetest people on Rover, on time, easy to work with, and most importantly, the fur babes loved them! Couldn’t recommend higher.”

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.

“Elly and Theo are absolutely lovely people and they took such good care of Khai🥰 They sent me updates and photos which were super cute. I highly recommend them and I will definitely bring Khai back again. ❤️”

Over: momenteel ben ik thuis vanwege de geboorte van onze 2e dochter. Voorlopig kan ik nog niet terug naar mn eigen baan dus ben ik iets anders gaan doen om mijn dagen op te vullen ☺️ Katten blijven natuurlijk graag in hun eigen omgeving. Daar zal ik er altijd voor zorgen dat ze zich op hun gemak voelen en uw huis netjes blijft 🥳

Over: I’ve always been around dogs and have had my own for as long as I can remember. Friends and family often trust me to look after their dogs, and many of them stay at my home. I’m comfortable with different breeds and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for I work from home with a flexible schedule and I make sure to walk the dogs at least three times every day. I also have a backyard where the dogs can play and run around freely. I have a garden at home where dogs can safely play and relax. I also live in a calm area with plenty of parks, perfect for walks. I have a very friendly dog who loves the company of other dogs, so your pet will always feel comfortable and welcome.

Over: I've been surrounded by pets since I was 5 years old, fostering a deep love and understanding of animal care. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of various breeds and temperaments, honing my skills in providing attentive and compassionate care. In addition to my extensive experience, I also take pride in personally giving basic training to my dogs, ensuring they are well-behaved and happy. My lifelong passion and hands-on approach guarantee that your furry friend will receive the best possible care and attention. I currently work part time so I have plenty of time to engage play time and take dogs on walks and just be with them I have a 1 bed room apartment, I have 2 dogs of my own, they sleep and play around the house happily , they even can play fetch around the house
