Kattenoppas in Maastricht

Over: I am a major animal lover- specifically dogs- and have had my own since I was 10 years old- I begged my parents for him!! I love looking after and spending time with pets, and am missing my dog who is currently with my parents while I am studying here in Maastricht. I only study a couple hours a day and work a part time job on weekends so I always have plenty of availability every day !! For now, I am unable to offer services in my own home but I am very used to pet sitting and would provide the upmost care for your animal `:)

“Great pet sitter. Lucia was taking care of my cat Yumi. She was very patient, and my Yumi was feeling comfortable with her. The communication with Lucia was perfect, she sent regular update with pictures and videos after each visit. Thanks a lot for your help!”

Over: I grew up caring for pets in my home country, which gave me hands-on experience with both dogs and cats and taught me how to be patient, attentive, and responsible. Since moving abroad, I no longer have pets of my own, which means I truly enjoy giving my time and energy to the pets I care for. As a young, active, and caring sitter, I bring enthusiasm, flexibility, and genuine affection to every pet. I take the time to understand each animal’s needs and personality, whether that means playtime, long walks, or calm companionship. As a student, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time, which allows me to adapt easily to your pet’s needs. I live close to several parks and enjoy spending time outdoors, so long walks and playtime are already part of my day. I’m active, reliable, and happy to adjust my routine to make sure your pet gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I make sure pets are always in a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. My home is pet-friendly, with no obstacles or hazards, allowing pets to move and play freely. I always adjust the space and routine to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and habits. When caring for pets in an owner’s home, I carefully follow all instructions, maintain their usual routine, and ensure they feel secure and well cared for at all times.

Over: Hi! My name is Barbora, I am 22 years old and currently a student in Maastricht, and I am very interested in a side job that involves something that I love and know better than anything else - cats! I have 5 cats of my own, but I unfortunately can’t see them as much since moving away. I’ve always been great with cats and I understand them a lot. I am a full-time university student with a couple free days during the week (and weekend), which I would love to fill in with cat sitting. I am available for day visits as well as overnight stays since I miss my own fur babies a lot and I have a lot of love and attention to give! I can easily adapt to your daily routine and ensure your cats are happy and comfortable. My own cats have very distinct personalities and needs, so I am familiar with accommodating different types and schedules.

Over: I’m a Maastricht University student, originally from Rome, and I’ve honestly loved dogs for as long as I can remember. Back home in Rome I have my pets: I previously had a Labrador, and now my family has a Labrador, a Golden Retriever, and three cats. Being around animals has always felt completely natural to me. I genuinely love spending time with dogs—playing with them, taking them on walks, and just hanging out together. I’m very used to daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming, and of course lots of cuddles. I always try to make pets feel comfortable and relaxed, especially when their owners are away. I’m happy caring for puppies, helping keep routines and reinforce good behaviour, and I’m also comfortable with senior dogs, making sure they move at their own pace and get the extra care and patience they need. I’m a calm, friendly, and very reliable person. I take pet care seriously and always follow instructions carefully, treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel safe, happy, and at ease. I am currently a student enroled at Maastricht University, but i do not have university and when i have it its not all day, so my schedule is very flexible I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed, whether I’m caring for them in my home or in their owner’s home. I take time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs, and I carefully follow all instructions given by the owner. In a pet owner’s home, I’m very respectful of the space and keep the environment calm, clean, and familiar, which helps pets feel more at ease. I make sure doors and windows are secure, food and water are always fresh, and pets are supervised during playtime and walks. I pay close attention to safety on walks, using leashes properly and adapting the walk to the dog’s energy level and comfort. I also keep a close eye on pets’ behaviour and well-being and will always communicate with owners if I notice anything unusual.

Over: I've taken care of cats for years (both personal pets and cat sitting) and have walked dogs for my neighbors, as well as dog sitting frequently. I'm currently a student and don't have a job so I'm very flexible with my hours. Most days I can go multiple times a day, both for cat/dog sitting and for walking. I love walking so I'm happy to do +1 hour long walks if needed as well. I would not be able to dog/cat sit in my house, however, I could walk your pet, drop them at daycare, and check on them multiple times a day, or take care of them in your house!

Over: I’ve been taking care of pets of all kind since i was little. I was always around animals since i spent a lot of time in my grandmas house where she had chickens, a lot of cats, rabbits and pigeons. I also had a dog of my own that we got when i was 11 and still have to this day. My cousins house was very close from ours so i always visited and we took care of their dogs as well. I’ve fed, walked, played and (a few times) bathed my dog and my cousins dogs. In my house we also have two kittens and a few chicken as well, but since i moved i didn’t get to spent a lot of time with the kittens I am currently a student at Maastricht Univeristy and have some time to spare during weekdays and weekends. I miss my pets a lot and i what to be around animals more. My schedule changes every couple months since we have new courses but i am always available for some hours during the week and i am free on weekends. Unfortunately since my accommodation does not allow pets inside i can’t pet sit from home but i would love to take care of a pet at a clients house. I will keep the place clean and follow the instructions of the client, so we both have a good experience.

“Mia was wonderful with the cats, as well as very responsible, organised and flexible when needed. Thank you Mia for your good care of our sweet furry friends.”

Over: I got my first dog when I was 11, and since then I’ve always loved spending time with animals. I’ve gained experience in training and caring for both young and senior dogs, and I regularly look after my own dogs when I return to Italy. I truly enjoy keeping dogs company and making sure they feel safe and happy when their owners are away. Recently, I hosted a friend’s dog in my apartment in Maastricht for two months. She was a rescue and initially very shy and scared of people, but with patience and care she gradually opened up to me. This experience taught me a lot about working with more sensitive and anxious dogs. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, genders, and temperaments, and I always adapt my approach to each dog’s individual needs. I can’t wait to meet your best friend and give them the care and attention they deserve! 🐾 I am a student, so outside of my classes i have plenty of time to spend with your best friend! I am available both on weekdays and weekdays, depending on my class schedule. I have a fenced backyard where your dog will be able to play. My dogs live in Italy so I don’t have pets here in Maastricht but i will be happy to play, walk and cuddle with your pet anytime!

“Lionel was a great cat sitter. I was looking for someone to look after my cats at the last minute, and thankfully, he responded very quickly and I was able to meet with him before handing him the keys. He was very warm and friendly, and I could tell he was very happy to get to know the cats. After each visit, Lionel sent many photos of the cats as he was playing with their favorite toys, and I noticed that even my more shy cat has warmed up to him within a short amount of time. Thanks, Lionel!”

Over: I truly love animals and have a dog of my own. Being around pets is therapeutic for me. From playful puppies/ kittens to senior dogs/cats, I provide loving, patient care tailored to each pet’s needs. I treat every animal like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Caring for animals is a regular part of my life since I have a dog of my own. My schedule is flexible, so I make time every day for walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it’s something I truly enjoy. I respect and follow each pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable in their own space. I stick to feeding schedules, provide plenty of playtime, walks, and affection, and always make sure their environment stays clean and safe. I treat every home with care and every pet like family.

Over: Hi! I am Zhe from China. I am a working person in Maastricht and willing to take care of your pets with my partner Jose. We can do home office, also have quite a lot free time after work. We can do onboarding or feeding cat/walk dog from the pet’s owner place. We both love dogs and cats, we are sure that we can take good care of your pet, with two person’s wisdom and care. We have a house, where one of our neighbor has a quiet and polite dog, and another neighbor has a cat. we have no yards and it is safe to stay in home. We are friendly to all animals and pets!

Over: Throughout my life I have had different types of pets, and I have always loved all the animals I have seen. I have experience in caring for dogs and cats, as I have always tried to rescue them from the streets and help them find a second chance in life whenever I could. At the moment I have a dog and two cats at my parents' house, but unfortunately I don't have any animals in the house where I currently live, as it is a student flat, so taking care of your furry friends would be very rewarding for me! I am currently a university student, although this is not a problem to be able to take care of their animals since I only have class 4 days a week for 2 hours, so the rest of the time I can spend it busy taking care of their animals. I would adapt to what you tell me about the care of your pet, in addition to the rules of your house if it is a home service.
