Persoonlijke verzorging voor je hond of kat: Oostzaan

“Amanda and her partner Marinna are fantastic. They took such great care of Charlie while we were away for 5 nights. They kept us updated with photos, and we could see that Charlie felt really comfortable with them. Charlie is reactive toward intact male dogs which can sometimes worry us when he is with new sitters. However, Amanda and Marinna assured us that they are familiar with reactivity, and they indeed seemed to manage just fine. Knowing he was in good hands made our vacation even more enjoyable 🙂 Thank you!!”

“Noodle was a bit restless and anxious when we left, but Sofia took her for a long walk which made Noodle relaxed and totally at ease. Noodle feels very comfortable with Sofia. Thank you Sofia for taking such good care of Noodle!”

“Cong took so much care to look after Emilio 🐶 He went on walks to the forest, parks and even socializing with her friends. He was completely spoilt with a lots of play time, cuddles and attention! We also received many photos and videos. We will for sure be booking Cong again 😊”

“Lada is the best dog sitter in Amsterdam! She agreed to watch my dog less than 12 hours in advance, and then agreed to meet me at the train station instead of me dropping off the dog at her place, which shows how kind and thoughtful and helpful she is!!! The weekend that my dog spent at her place was amazing too. I got updates 5+ times per week, with pictures of my dog, my dog was walked for multiple hours a day, she was allowed everywhere in the house; and Lada was veryyyy attentive to her needs and always checked in with me on what she could do extra. She even invited me for tea after the dog stay. I genuinely couldn’t recommend her more, i’d trust her to watch my dog anytime!”

Lily S.

“Mariia was incredibly kind and made my cat feel truly welcome and, most importantly, comfortable. The daily pictures and updates gave me real peace of mind and helped me stay calm, knowing my cat was in good hands. I’m absolutely sure she enjoyed her time there, she didn’t even want to leave 😂 recommended!”

“Carolina is so sweet; took such good care of my little guy, and gave regular and complete updates. Thank you so much also for the flexibility on pick-up and drop offs 🙏 Thank you so much, Carolina! X”

Fiona L.

“Nadine weet heel goed hoe het is om met honden te leven. Begrip voor de hond én de eigenaar. Bullet vond het ook super leuk om bij haar te zijn! En dat snap ik!!”

Marcellino R.

“Marcel is heel betrouwbaar en was ontzettend lief met onze Labrador. Caruso is een sterke hond die iemand met ervaring nodig heeft, en dat ging bij Marcel helemaal goed. We hebben ook fijne tips uitgewisseld en de communicatie met hem was uitstekend. 🦮”

Stefanie T.

“Our dog Hankie seemed to really enjoy his ten days with Laura. We received photos of him playing and cuddling daily, and Laura seemed to treat Hankie as one of her own pets. We’ll definitely be using her again.”

Nguyen T.

“Alessandro and his girlfriend May took such wonderful care of Rebel. As a dog with a naturally nervous temperament due to his breed, he can take a little time to feel comfortable in new surroundings, but they were incredibly patient, kind, and understanding with him. They kept me updated every day with lovely messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind and allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my time away. It was clear that Rebel was happy, well cared for, and receiving lots of attention and affection. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and trustworthy people to look after their pet. Thank you both for taking such great care of Rebel!”

Olga S.

“Melisa was even better than expected, she is very attentive, interactive, communicative and was always made sure to keep us aware of our mini-poodle. Also to mention he had a lot of playtime which he loves. Thanks Melisa Coco will comeback soon!”

Ariel C.

“Olivia and Caleb exceeded expectations! They were kind. They were responsible. They sent pictures and updates of our pooch daily! Bodhi was with them for about 10 days and we are so grateful to them. Bodhi loved them. We highly and hugely recommend them to anyone that needs peace of mind when leaving their beloved pet with someone. They did an absolutely terrific job taking care of Bodhi. They are wonderful people and they will love your animals!”

Jonathan W.

“Maggie always loves visiting Marlies! Plenty of time for relaxing as well as great adventures and trips! Couldn’t recommend Marlies more highly. Your dog will be in great and loving hands with her.”

Scott H.

Over: Hey there! My name is Gabriela and I am excited to take care of your dog! 🐶 I have extensive experience taking care of various dog breeds, both through friends and family as well as online pet services like Petbnb. I also live right next to the Westerpark so I can take your dog on frequent walks. 🌳 I work a hybrid job, so I usually work from home 2-3 days of the week where I can fully accommodate your dog. My office is also dog friendly. I have the time to go on walk every morning and evening, and around lunchtime if I am staying home. My apartment is fully safe for any pets. I live very close to the Westerpark so I can take your dog on regular walks in nature.

“Mel had an amazing time with Jovan last week. We got plenty of pictures and she was very happy and super comfortable at his home with Misha. We will definitely come back! Thank you very much guys.”

Carla P.

“Anastasia was the perfect boarding host for Kika: warm, friendly, lots of walks in Nooderpark. And their space is lovely, with a nice living room and a gorgeous outdoor garden. Can't say enough about Anastasia, highly recommend!”

James O.

“I was really nervous as have never used a service like this before but Anna looked after my dog wonderfully. He is had a lovely time and came home happy and well. It was a huge relief and I will definitely be booking again!”

Over: I’m a responsible and attentive animal sitter based in Amsterdam. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and cats and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I provide regular walks, a lot of playtime, and lots of attention. I’m patient, reliable, and happy to follow your animal’s routine so they feel at home while you’re away. I work remotely so am quite flexible. I work a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give dogs regular attention, walks, and potty breaks throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can adapt to your dog’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home apartment in Amsterdam Oud Westand only host a limited number of dogs at a time so they receive plenty of attention. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, and routines, and I make sure pets always feel safe, relaxed, and supervised.

Over: Hi! 😊 Honden zijn voor mij echt familie en ik vind het belangrijk dat ze zich veilig, geliefd en op hun gemak voelen. Ik heb een tijd op een ranch in Duitsland gewoond waar we twee Australian Shepherds en een Border Collie hadden. De Aussies heb ik grotendeels vanaf pup opgevoed en met onze Border Collie, die een lastig verleden had, ben ik ook meerdere keren naar de hondenschool geweest. Daardoor heb ik geleerd goed om te gaan met verschillende karakters en gedragingen. Daarnaast heb ik vaak opgepast op de Jack Russell van een vriendin tijdens vakanties en andere momenten. Ik hou van lange wandelingen, avontuur en actief bezig zijn met honden — vroeger nam ik ze zelfs regelmatig mee tijdens het paardrijden 😊 Ik ben geduldig, rustig en speels, maar durf ook duidelijk en consequent te zijn wanneer dat nodig is. Medicatie geven is geen probleem en ik sta open voor alle soorten honden. Ik geloof niet echt in “slechte rassen”, iedere hond is anders en verdient een eerlijke kans en liefdevolle begeleiding. Verder heb ik een auto, dus uitstapjes of ophalen is vaak mogelijk. En ja… als een hond graag bij je op bed kruipt voor extra knuffels, dan vind ik dat helemaal gezellig 🐾 Momenteel heb ik nog geen vaste baan, waardoor ik veel vrije tijd en flexibiliteit heb. Daardoor kan ik huisdieren veel aandacht geven, wandelingen plannen en mijn dagelijkse routine aanpassen aan hun behoeften Ik zorg voor een rustige, veilige en vertrouwde omgeving voor ieder huisdier en heb een omheind tuintje. Ik geef veel aandacht, houd rekening met hun karakter en behoeften en zorg voor duidelijke structuur, veilige wandelingen en goede verzorging

“Anna took wonderful care of Mr. Pickles while I was away. He was happy and in great shape when I returned from my trip. I really appreciated her attention and reliability - highly recommended!”

Lisneac D.

“Kirsten heeft ons een goed gevoel gegeven bij het verzorgen van onze poezen. Ze heeft goed gecommuniceerd en heeft duidelijk laten weten hoe het ging. Elke dag kregen we netjes een update en foto's. Heel erg bedankt nog!”

Sander B.

“Aisa is a friendly and trustworthy cat sitter, and that showed when Aisa sent pics of Fonsi, our cat. Fonsi looked totally happy and relaxed. Aisa also took good care of the house and it was just as we left it. Can’t recommend Aisa enough to look after tout furry friends!”

Jorge H.

“Elena took amazing care of our cat and kitten (and home!) over Christmas when we were out the country. She was absolutely great! The communication was super clear and we received lots of pictures of our cats, making it feel like we knew what they were up to every day. :)”

MAJA A.

Over: I have real, hands-on experience with both cats and dogs of all ages, including energetic pets and seniors who need extra care. I volunteered for nearly a year at an animal shelter in Amsterdam, working closely with cats, cleaning, socializing, and helping shy or anxious animals feel safe. I’ve also worked in a dog daycare, so I’m confident handling different temperaments, routines, and active dogs. I currently care for multiple cats and have experience managing a small cat colony, which makes me very attentive to behavior, health, and individual needs. I’m calm, reliable, and genuinely care about each pet’s wellbeing. I adapt to their routine so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away.

“Marcel was fantastic and we’re really glad we found him. He made our Mowglie feel comfortable and so made us feel comfortable. We will definitely book again!”

Kathleen M.

“Shuhan is a very professional pet sitter with many experiences with both cats and dogs. My cutie had very wonderful time with her for almost 20 days. She is careful and thoughtful of your pets. Highlight recommended!”

Fiona W.

“Julia did a great job checking in on our cat! She followed all of our requests for his food mix ins. We loved seeing the picture and video updates (our cat clearly had a lot of fun with her)! Would book her again!”

Derrick S.

“I am very happy with Joakim! He took great care of Bilbo and Tigro—who is usually very shy—and made them both feel very comfortable and happy. I highly recommend him and will definitely call him next time I need a buddy for my cats”

Over: Hi there. I love dogs, and while I was in Lisbon me and my family had 2 dogs. The 1st was adopted with a few weeks old and lived an happy life until 11 years, and the 2nd dog we rescued him from the street and stayed with us for more or less 6 years (doctors believe that he was around 18 years old when he died). I love to walk with dogs, and around my house there are a lot of parks and nice trails to do it. If you are going on holidays or any other reason that doesn’t allow you to bring your dog with you, I’m more than available to dog sit him or her :) I’ve been hosting dogs with DogBuddy for a few times and it has been a quite nice experience! I work from home for the last 6 years, so I have plenty of time to onboard at any time of the day and also to answer the dog needs at any time. I have a fenced yard and around where I live there are plenty of routes to do for nice walks. Also, I have experience on cage dogs (if required). I already sited dogs between 6 months and 17 years of age.

Over: Hi lovely dog owners! I am a 35 year old & currently studying online to become a breathwork meditation teacher so I have a lot of free time! I would be very happy to dogsit and offer some dog walks to help anyone I can around me. I love animals and grew up in a house with cats. Many years after leaving the nest and my beloved cats, I finally got my adorable sweet little cat Luna and later on Hope, a border lab mix. They are currently with my parents in France! Every time I see a dog on the street, my heart literally just melts and I want to give them all my love! I have taken care of family's and friends' dogs & petsitted & housesitted many times before through different platforms, I can show you more reviews if you wish! If you feel like you want to make someone truly happy when you are once busy or go on holiday, please do not hesitate to contact me! If time allows we can first meet and see how the connection is between your pet and me and if you think it can work, I would be delighted! I am really looking forward to meeting you! I currently study online to become a breathwork meditation teacher so I have lots of free time for walks & love to go to your pets! I am very mindful of people’s places & I think it’s important for the dog to stay in its usual habitat when owners go on holiday (my dog agrees on that!)

Over: Hallo! I’m a native English speaker and just moved from a Germany to the Netherlands- I’ll be updating my profile to English. Mein Name ist Kristina. Ich bin mit Hunden und Katzen aufgewachsen. Ich habe mich mein ganzes Leben lang um Tiere gekümmert. Ich habe mit Mitbewohnern gelebt, die Hunde aller Größen und Rassen haben. Kürzlich habe ich mich zehn Tage lang um einen schwarzen Labradorwelpen und eine Katze gekümmert und mich drei Wochen lang um einen Labradoodle gekümmert. Ich liebe es, mit Hunden spazieren zu gehen und mich um sie zu kümmern. Zu meinen weiteren Interessen gehören Reisen, Kochen und das Zusammensein mit Familie und Freunden. Ich bin eine sehr ehrliche und vertrauenswürdige Person. Als ehemaliger Berater in Schulen ist es wichtig, dass ich diese Qualitäten habe. Die Arbeit mit Kindern erfordert Liebe, Geduld und Freundlichkeit. Das Gleiche gilt für Tiere. Ich habe mich um viele Katzen- und Hunderassen gekümmert. Ich freue mich darauf, von Ihnen zu hören und Ihnen bei der Betreuung Ihrer Haustiere zu helfen! Ich habe viel Zeit und bin flexibel. Da ich abends in einem Restaurant arbeite und mein Partner tagsüber arbeitet, erhalten die von uns betreuten Haustiere 24 Stunden Aufmerksamkeit und Pflege. Ich stelle gerne mein Zuhause zur Verfügung - eine geräumige Wohnung in der Nähe eines Parks - oder komme zu Ihnen nach Hause. Ich habe bei Leuten zu Hause übernachtet und mich um Haustiere gekümmert. Haustiere sind auch zu mir nach Hause gekommen.

Over: Never had cats in my family house (mum is allergic) but I’ve lived with my boyfriend with his beautiful 3 female cats. Don’t chase them and they will cuddle you. Softest animal in the world.

“Phoebe is a lovely talented lady, she had an immediate connection with our cats, and she carefully took care of them when we were away. She is very communicative, kept us posted on time during her visits with messages & photos. ”

Eda B.

Over: Hi there! My name is Luca, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I grew up with a cat and have had a family dog for the past six years — I regularly take care of him when my parents are on vacation, so I know what it means to keep pets happy, safe, and well cared for. I truly love both dogs and cats and enjoy spending time walking, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Even though I don’t have much professional pet-sitting experience yet, I’m very responsible, calm, and caring — and I’ll treat your pet like part of my family. I’m based in Noord Amsterdam and can offer walks, home visits, or overnight stays depending on what your pet needs. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend soon! 🐾 I’m currently a Master’s student in Cognitive Neuropsychology, and my class schedule is quite flexible. That means I have plenty of time before and after classes — and I’m often available during the day, in the evenings, and even overnight. This flexibility allows me to easily adjust to your pet’s routine and give them the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I can fit pet sitting comfortably around my studies. Since I currently live in student housing where pets aren’t allowed, I can’t host dogs or cats in my apartment. However, I’m more than happy to take care of them at your home — where they feel most comfortable and safe. When I look after pets, I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I follow their usual routines carefully, make sure they have enough walks, food, and rest, and always keep their environment clean and cozy. I love spending time outdoors with dogs and giving cats the calm company they enjoy. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply cuddling, I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, love, and respect. ❤️

Over: Hello to all, I am Andreea, 29years old. I moved to the Netherlands 5 years ago. I love arts and I have been a cat lover since I was a little girl. I had posters with cats in my room. I think they are such great and wise beings, i do believe they can see our human aura. I just fall in love everytime when I am around a cat: i can not resist to its sweetness. I love their wet nose in the morning. Also I admire their rafinate walking and their comfortable positions. I am able to take care of your cat with all the love and devotion that I have!

Over: Raised on a farm, always surrounded by animals. I’ve had four beloved dogs: negra, Tyson, Chato and Polay. Caring for pets is natural to me I’m currently looking for a job, building connections and studying so I have flexibility for taking care of your pet while working on my applications I have a spacious apartment in front of a park where I can take the dog during the day if needed and taking them for a walk

Over: Als sinds ik ben geboren altijd al katten gehad. Ik hou veel van ze en ze houden ook veel van mij : ) MaineCoons en Britse korthaar

Over: As a dedicated cat lover, I provide personalized care for your furry friend while you're away. From administering medications to deep-cleaning litter trays, I ensure your cat is comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. I’m experienced with cats of all personalities and will make sure your pet feels loved and safe until you return.

“Great timely and reliable help!”

“Mathilda was fantastic with our two giant puppies! At very short notice she puppy proofed her home and had our two pups for the day.

“Jovan is such an attentive and kind dog sitter, our dog Waldo had such a great time hanging out with him and Misha! Jovan was super accommodating and met up with us first so we could see if Waldo and Misha get along. He was also really understanding and patient knowing that Waldo can be a bit shy and anxious at first. He even kept us updated during the day with pictures. We are super happy that Waldo was in such good hands and will book daycare with Jovan again very soon <3”

“Shanice heeft heel goed gezorgd voor mijn hond! Ze heeft me goed op de hoogte gehouden met berichtjes en foto’s. Mijn hond was moe en tevreden toen ik hem op kwam halen. Hondje en baasje allebei zeeeer blij!”

Over: My pug was one of my best friends, but unfortunately she's no longer with us and I miss having a furry friend around. I have lots of experience with the things that come with being a "smush face" breed like reverse sneezing etc. But am equally capable of taking care of other breeds as well, most recently I took care of a beagle and golden retriever. I enjoyed it so much that I thought I would make a profile here and see if I could do it more often. :) I typically work from home so I can keep your pooch company and vice versa throughout the day. I go to dance classes every Tuesday and Thursday evening, so if they're staying overnight I may leave them on their own for a few hours at a time. Similarly on the weekends, there are some days I'm mostly hanging at home and others where I might be out for short periods of time :) I don't have any pets of my own so my full attention will be on taking care of yours when they are with me :)

“Grover gives Tobias four paws up! 🐾 Great walks, frequent photo updates, and super kind and flexible. We felt totally at ease — highly recommend!””

Frank F.

“My little teckel enjoyed here stay Zixun. Zixun took very good care of here. She send me fotos, always important, and Sientje was very relaxed when I picked here up! And that’s always good news for a teckel owner😎💕🍀!”

“Georgina was so quick to respond and take care of my golden retriever for the day. I really recommend her, for her caring attitude.”

Cami D.

“Lada is absolutely great, she is very careful, friendly, welcoming and patient person! I was extra confident that Benya is feeling great while staying with her, even though he is a very anxious dog that has hard times while being separated from his family. I would really recommend Lada and surely would love to leave our dog with her next time!”

Ilia

“I really can recommend Tesla! She sent me pictures of Benya throughout his stay at her place, so I definitely know that Benya enjoyed his day! Thank you!”

Ilia

“Jose took very nice care of Pepita, was able to accomodate us last minute and even came to pick her up early in the morning. She seemed quite happy when I picked her up at night. Both Jose and Irene were very sweet both to me and to Pepi. Thank you for watching my baby!”

Julia D.

“Marie was super happy to see Tripti again and we immediately felt comfortable leaving our little dog in her care. It was clear how excited she was to spend time with her again, and that gave us so much peace of mind. We really appreciate her kindness, reliability, and the genuine love she shows for our dog. Highly recommend!”

Jasmijn vd C.

Over: WE LOVE DOGS. Me and my girlfriend both grew up in households with furry friends. I had a dog (German Shepard) and a cat. Also, I had experience taking care of my girlfriend's dog (Chiwawa). I work fully remote from home so can be with your dog(s) whole day. Also, if your dog love socializing and being the star of the day, my girlfriend works in a dog-friendly office where all furry friends got unlimited pets. I'm currently at a fully remote position in a tech company and therefore can be with furry friends the whole day. I go out sometimes on the weekend, but won't be long if furry friends are at home. I stayed in a 2 stories apartment without a yard. The apartment complex has a public unfenced courtyard. There is no other pets in the house so there won't be problem of any fraction between furry friends.

“Hele fijne en betrouwbare oppas top!! Mijn hond was helemaal relaxed”

Dee S.

Over: I grew up with a dog for 12 years and was his main caretaker, so I’m very comfortable with the day-to-day responsibilities of looking after a pet. I handled feeding, walks, grooming, playtime, and also more specific medical care. My dog required injections and special attention, so I have experience staying calm and careful when pets need extra care. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, getting to know their personalities, and making sure they feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I currently work part-time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend plenty of time with the dogs I care for. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting during the week and often on weekends as well. I currently live in a student apartment, so I focus on providing care in the owner’s home or through walks and drop-in visits. I’m very respectful of people’s spaces and of each dog’s routine. I make sure dogs get plenty of attention, exercise, and feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos so you know your dog is doing well.

“Thanks again, Jose. It’s such a relief knowing we can always count you to take care of the boys.”

Over: I have had pets since I was six. Started with a dog, later cats. I now regularly dog-sit for friends and neighbors, and for the past year I have been actively walking multiple dogs in the neighborhood (6+). Some also stay at our home for extended periods. I can promise a stress free expierence for pets and owners alike :) I walk several times a day, with or without dogs. There are three parks and two (green) walking routes nearby, so there is plenty to sniff! Playing with a ball or other toys is also possible, as well as running with the dog if it needs exercise. I walk several times a day, with or without dogs. There are three parks and two (green) walking routes nearby, so there is plenty to sniff! Playing with a ball or other toys is also possible, as well as running with the dog if it needs exercise.

Over: I am a 26-year-old Dutch guy with a great passion for dogs. Dogs have played an important role in my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs and have had four in total, two of which still live with my parents. Because of this, I have gained a lot of experience with different personalities, including more challenging and high-energy dogs. As a result, I know how to interact with dogs in a calm, clear, and confident way. I am also very good at reading canine communication, such as body language, posture, and behavior, which allows me to prevent escalation and step in when necessary. At the moment, I am exploring what I want to do in the future, and it is clear to me that it will involve dogs in some way, such as training or guidance. In the meantime, I have the time and flexibility to spend a lot of time with dogs, and there is honestly nothing I enjoy more. Being a dog sitter is therefore the perfect way for me to do something I genuinely love while also gaining even more experience and getting to know different dogs. To me, dogs are much more than just pets. I truly enjoy spending time with them and giving them the attention they deserve. I personally love going on walks, so taking a dog along is not only enjoyable company for me, but also a great balance where both the dog and I benefit from spending time outdoors. I find it very important that a dog feels safe, calm, and comfortable, which is why I always pay close attention to the individual character and needs of each dog. I actually enjoy working with more challenging or highly sensitive dogs as well. I stay calm, provide clear structure, and take the time to build trust so the dog knows what to expect. During walks, I pay close attention to the surroundings, safety, and the dog’s own signals. Owners can expect me to be responsible, reliable, and genuinely involved, and to treat their dog with patience, attention, and care. Clear communication is also very important to me, so owners always know how things are going. I read a dog’s emotional state by paying attention to the eyes, posture, energy level, and how the dog positions itself around other dogs. I also look for signs of confidence, stress, or dominance during interactions, such as the way a dog approaches, avoids, or lies down in social situations. This allows me to adapt my approach so that every dog feels safe and understood. During walks, I enjoy visiting natural environments such as parks or green areas where the dog can relax, explore, and comfortably do its business. I focus on calm, structured walks where the dog receives both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I am confident handling dogs on a leash and can maintain good control in different situations. If a dog is allowed off-leash, I know how to apply reliable recall and how to keep the dog safe and engaged. I am also experienced in walking two dogs at the same time, so that is absolutely no problem for me. For a regular walk, you can expect me to walk with the dog for at least 40 minutes. Something else that may be reassuring for owners to know is that I am currently looking into part-time (16-hour) remote work that can be done fully independently. This means I am not tied to an office or stuck in long meetings, which allows me to dedicate a lot of time and attention to the dog and the house. I am definitely not someone who is busy working all day and only quickly takes the dog out in between tasks — caring for the dog is genuinely my main priority. I may occasionally handle some light administrative work during the day, but aside from that, I am mainly present, flexible, and attentive. Because of this, I can keep a close eye on both the dog and the home, and owners can trust that everything will be calm, safe, and well taken care of. What I am currently in between jobs and taking the time to explore what I want to do long-term. One thing that is very clear to me is that I want my future to involve dogs in some way, whether that becomes dog training, behavioral guidance, or something similar. I am still figuring out exactly how I want to shape that path, but I think it is great that I can already gain valuable hands-on experience by caring for and spending time with different dogs through dog sitting and walking. At the moment, I have a flexible schedule and am mainly available during weekdays from late morning until the end of the afternoon. Unfortunately, Rover does not offer an exact option for this, but in practice I am generally available between 10 AM and 5 PM to look after your dog at home or take your dog out for walks. Since I personally love walking as well, owners can expect me to take dogs on long, enjoyable walks with plenty of attention and care. I am also exploring the possibility of starting a part-time remote job later this summer for around 16 hours per week. The type of work I am looking at would be fully home-based, flexible, and low-pressure, without meetings or appointments that would require me to leave the house. Because of that, I would still have more than enough time, attention, and flexibility to properly care for dogs throughout the day. The dog’s wellbeing, attention, and routine would always remain my main priority while I am looking after them. Weekends can be a bit more difficult for me, although I may still be available depending on the situation, so you are always welcome to send me a message to check availability I currently live in an apartment complex and do not have a private garden, which means fulltime dog boarding at my home can be a bit more limited depending on the dog and the situation. However, if your dog only needs to stay somewhere for a few hours for example, to bridge part of the day rather than staying an entire day or overnight that is absolutely possible at my place. My apartment is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate a dog for shorter periods of time. I already do this regularly with one of my parents’ dogs to help them out from time to time, so I am experienced in having dogs stay with me in a calm and comfortable environment. Of course, this is always coordinated properly, which means that if I am caring for your dog, there will not unexpectedly be another dog present unless discussed beforehand. I also genuinely enjoy being outdoors and spending active, quality time with dogs. With my own family dogs, I love doing simple things like playing with a tennis ball or a toy, practicing little tricks, going for walks, relaxing outside together, cuddling, and giving them attention. For me, it is really the small moments and connection with a dog that make it enjoyable, and spending time with dogs genuinely gives me a lot of energy and happiness. One important thing to mention is that Rover sometimes requires me to select fixed availability options that do not fully reflect how flexible I actually am. Because of that, it is possible that I may not always appear in certain search results. In reality, my availability is often much more flexible and depends a bit on the specific day and situation. So please feel free to send me a message, even if my profile settings seem limited I am usually more flexible than the Rover options may suggest.

Over: I have had dogs in my life since early childhood. My first dog was an Old English Sheepdog (Bobtail) who was part of my family from when I was 4 until I was 12. While I was too young to walk her on my own because she was bigger than me, I actively helped with feeding, buying food, washing her paws, and grooming. At 25, I had my second Old English Sheepdog, and this time I was fully responsible for her care. I handled daily walks, feeding, vet visits, health monitoring, and grooming. Caring for large, strong breeds has given me confidence, responsibility, and a deep understanding of dogs’ needs, routines, and behavior. I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your dog. I am available most days of the week, including weekdays and Sundays. On Saturdays, I am available after 3 PM. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog will not be left alone for long periods. I live in a two-bedroom apartment with a private fenced garden, which gives dogs a safe outdoor space to explore and relax. My home is calm and family-oriented, shared with my husband and our 15-year-old teenager. There are no small children, so the environment is peaceful and predictable. I always prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I carefully follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions provided by owners. Your dog will be treated as part of our family and cared for with patience and attention.

Over: I have grown up surrounded by animals, and dogs have always been a very important part of my life. Back in Spain, I have had dogs all my life, so I am very familiar with their routines, needs, and different personalities. To me, dogs are not just pets, but true family members. I am currently unemployed, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. This means long and relaxed walks, constant supervision, playtime, affection, and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who truly enjoys spending time with animals. I always adapt to each dog’s habits and energy levels, whether they are very active or prefer a calmer routine. If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and dedicated dog sitter, I would be happy to take care of your pet as if it were my own 🐾 I am currently unemployed, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. This means long and relaxed walks, constant supervision, playtime, affection, and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I live close to Het Twiske, a beautiful natural area where dogs can enjoy long walks and plenty of outdoor time in a safe and stimulating environment. My home is completely secure and dog-friendly, and I make sure that every dog is cared for, supervised, and given attention at all times.

“Amazing!”

Over: I recently moved away from home, and I really miss my dog! I love walking her, and was hoping to find a new friend to walk. I’ve previously also walked dogs in my other neighborhood:) My routine is quite diverse under the week, so it’s dependent on the day! However I am almost always free to walk on the weekends!! I sadly can’t have animals in my home, however I would be willing to talk about offering pet sitting, depending on when and how long :)

Over: My “no-pets-allowed” apartment in Amsterdam feels a bit too quiet without dogs 🐶 I have grown up with dogs for the past 25 years and miss my dachshunds back in South Africa, so being a pet walker and sitter here will be my daily dose of dog love. I am comfortable with cats (I have cared for my sister’s cat) and I have experience with both senior and younger dogs, as well as all temperaments. I am especially experienced with dachshunds and similar breeds, and always mindful of their sensitive backs. Although I live in Amsterdam-Noord, I will be happy to travel anywhere in Amsterdam for walks, visits, or overnight stays. I will always take time to understand each pet’s routine and personality so they feel safe, relaxed, and at home! 😊 My schedule is very flexible, which means I have plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playdates, and house sitting on weekdays and weekends. Honestly, I am always happy to adjust my day around a pet - if I am free, I’d much rather be outside with a dog than doing anything else! 😊 My schedule may change in the future as I explore work opportunities, but I will always plan ahead and keep my availability clearly updated. I will care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and most comfortable, keeping their routine consistent and following all instructions closely, including feeding, walks, and care needs. I will respect the owner’s home at all times, keeping it clean, secure, and as I found it, and will provide regular updates for peace of mind. For dog walking, I live in Amsterdam-Noord (and am happy to travel within Amsterdam), with plenty of quiet, dog-friendly streets and green spaces nearby. I will always choose safe, suitable areas for relaxed and enjoyable walks.

Over: I have taken care of dogs for years now. Back home in Jakarta, my family has a dog and a cat. I take great care of them, from feeding, bathing, taking on walks and giving medicine when needed. Graduated from my MA degree recently, so I currently work part-time and also as a freelancer. My schedule is quite flexible. Available during the weekends. I will adjust the environment to your pets as I want them to be a as comfortable as possible, since every pet has their own personality.

Over: I’ve been taking care of animals basically all my life, as since I was a child I had cats, dogs, hamsters, fishes and birds. Besides that my family and friends always counted on me to take care of their animals, for instance my grandmother dog or my aunt cat. As I don’t have any animals here, this would also be a great opportunity for me to also share my love for animals I just recently graduated from my masters, so I have a lot of time to spend playing and taking care of your animals. I am also available in the weekends and to stay with them I live in a small studio apartment on the first floor where there is a shared garden with the other tenants. I myself don’t have any animals

Over: Hi! I'm Pauline, a full-time dog walker and certified dog trainer and behaviourist based in Landsmeer. I'm offering to walk your dog while you're at work or if you don't have time to take them for a long walk. I’ve been walking dogs for several years now, including regularly at a local shelter where I work with all kinds of breeds and temperaments. I also have my own dog, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pet is in safe and caring hands. I treat every dog as if they were my own—patiently, gently, and with lots of attention. If it's not clear by now, dogs are my passion <3 Being a dog trainer and behaviourist helps me understand dogs on a deeper level and handle any situation calmly and confidently. I also followed a dog First Aid course :) What you can expect after contacting me : - A few questions so I can have an idea of what you need & who your dog is - We meet and go for a walk with your dog so I can see him/her interact with the world - I can start walking your dog :) I usually start walking dogs with a 5 (or 10) meter leash (if we agreed on unleashed walks) until trust is established. If your dog is reactive or anxious, or prefers solo walks with no contact with other dogs, I'm also happy to provide that. I'm happy to walk around your neighboroud/local park or if i have multiple dogs, I take them to Twiske or a nice nature park. I have a car & bakfiets, and doing this full time so I'm very flexible with picking up/dropping off. Looking forward to meeting you and your dog! I'm available most days next to my doggie day care job so I'm happy to accommodate with some notice ahead of time ! see you soon i don't take pets at home as my dog prefers to not have any other dog at home. She feels the safest that way and I respect that

Over: Hi! I’m 21 and currently studying business at VU, but my heart has always belonged to dogs. I’ve been surrounded by furry friends my whole life—from playful puppies to gentle giants—and I truly adore them all. Whether it’s going for walks, giving belly rubs, or just keeping them company, being around dogs brings me so much joy. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me for years to care for their pets, and I treat every dog like my own. Pet care is something I genuinely love and make time for no matter how busy my week is! I’m currently a student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, and cuddles. I plan my week around the needs of the pets I care for—whether that means early morning walks or evening visits, I’m happy to adjust! Your pup will be safe, happy, and well cared for in my home. I’m experienced with crates if needed and always follow your instructions closely to make sure your dog feels comfortable and loved.

Over: Ik heb in mijn hele leven al honden en katten om me heen gehad. Verzorgen vind ik heerlijk, hierom ben ik ook mijn lichaam & vachtverzorgingdiploma gehaald. Ook heb ik meerdere puppy cursussen bijgewoond en ook met oudere honden weet ik raad. Ik ben niet snel bang voor huisdieren, maar ik vind ze allemaal even leuk! Ik ben buiten rover werkeloos, ik woon samen met mijn lieve vriend en zoontje. Ik heb daardoor wel elke dag tijd voor de verzorging van huisdieren. Bij mij thuis is helaas momenteel geen optie maar misschien in de toekomst wel. Bij het baasje thuis verzorg ik precies zoals mij gevraagd wordt. Hier kunnen duidelijke afspraken over gemaakt worden uiteraard.

“Julia is always so sweet with our dogs. She’s very understanding of their individual quirks, and takes them for really good walks! We love Julia!”

Over: Hi there! My name is Luca, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I grew up with a cat and have had a family dog for the past six years — I regularly take care of him when my parents are on vacation, so I know what it means to keep pets happy, safe, and well cared for. I truly love both dogs and cats and enjoy spending time walking, playing, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. Even though I don’t have much professional pet-sitting experience yet, I’m very responsible, calm, and caring — and I’ll treat your pet like part of my family. I’m based in Noord Amsterdam and can offer walks, home visits, or overnight stays depending on what your pet needs. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend soon! 🐾 I’m currently a Master’s student in Cognitive Neuropsychology, and my class schedule is quite flexible. That means I have plenty of time before and after classes — and I’m often available during the day, in the evenings, and even overnight. This flexibility allows me to easily adjust to your pet’s routine and give them the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays, I can fit pet sitting comfortably around my studies. Since I currently live in student housing where pets aren’t allowed, I can’t host dogs or cats in my apartment. However, I’m more than happy to take care of them at your home — where they feel most comfortable and safe. When I look after pets, I make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I follow their usual routines carefully, make sure they have enough walks, food, and rest, and always keep their environment clean and cozy. I love spending time outdoors with dogs and giving cats the calm company they enjoy. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply cuddling, I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, love, and respect. ❤️

“Elini is very trustworthy . Genuinely cares about dogs and really understands their needs She always in contact and sending pics kids which is great 👍 I would recommend her to anyone .”

Lloyd C.

“We love Ellie!!! She is so great with our 10 week old puppy. They get along really well and she always does what is best for him. She is very responsive and receptive to our requests and very responsible. We 100% trust Ellie to take care of our pup and would highly recommend her to anyone.”

Over: I have been caring for both cats and dogs throughout my life, helping friends, family members, and neighbours with their pets whenever needed. Over the years, I have gained experience with animals of different ages, personalities, and needs, from energetic young pets to senior animals requiring extra attention and care. I also have experience caring for cats with special needs, including diabetic cats and cats requiring daily medication or specific treatments. I understand the importance of following routines carefully and paying close attention to a pet's well-being, behaviour, and comfort. My own cat was a beloved companion for many years, and I sadly lost him to old age two years ago. Through that experience, I became very familiar with senior cats and the extra patience, attention, and gentle care they often need. Whether your pet is young, elderly, shy, or requires special care, I will treat them with the same love and dedication I would give my own. I have a flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether your dog enjoys long walks and playtime or your cat prefers a calm and cosy environment, I can adapt to their individual needs and routine. I am available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays for both short and longer stays. I live on a quiet street next to Westerpark, in a ground-floor apartment with a small private enclosed garden. I love starting my mornings with a walk through the park and a coffee, and it's a wonderful place for dogs to explore, play, and socialize with other dogs in a safe and friendly environment. > > At home, the atmosphere is calm and peaceful, making it especially suitable for cats or pets who enjoy a quieter setting. I always make sure each pet feels comfortable, secure, and loved, while respecting their individual personality, routine, and needs. Whether they are energetic and playful or prefer a more relaxed pace, I adapt my care to help them feel completely at ease.

“Amanda and her partner Marinna are fantastic. They took such great care of Charlie while we were away for 5 nights. They kept us updated with photos, and we could see that Charlie felt really comfortable with them. Charlie is reactive toward intact male dogs which can sometimes worry us when he is with new sitters. However, Amanda and Marinna assured us that they are familiar with reactivity, and they indeed seemed to manage just fine. Knowing he was in good hands made our vacation even more enjoyable 🙂 Thank you!!”

Jennifer M.

“Georgina took amazing care of coco, sent daily updates and we felt very comfortable leaving Coco with her. Coco came back happy and well exercised. We will definitely rebook with Georgina ❣️”

Annie L.

“Cong took so much care to look after Emilio 🐶 He went on walks to the forest, parks and even socializing with her friends. He was completely spoilt with a lots of play time, cuddles and attention! We also received many photos and videos. We will for sure be booking Cong again 😊”

Salimah B.

“Lada is the best dog sitter in Amsterdam! She agreed to watch my dog less than 12 hours in advance, and then agreed to meet me at the train station instead of me dropping off the dog at her place, which shows how kind and thoughtful and helpful she is!!! The weekend that my dog spent at her place was amazing too. I got updates 5+ times per week, with pictures of my dog, my dog was walked for multiple hours a day, she was allowed everywhere in the house; and Lada was veryyyy attentive to her needs and always checked in with me on what she could do extra. She even invited me for tea after the dog stay. I genuinely couldn’t recommend her more, i’d trust her to watch my dog anytime!”

Lily S.

“Carolina is so sweet; took such good care of my little guy, and gave regular and complete updates. Thank you so much also for the flexibility on pick-up and drop offs 🙏 Thank you so much, Carolina! X”

Fiona L.

“Nadine weet heel goed hoe het is om met honden te leven. Begrip voor de hond én de eigenaar. Bullet vond het ook super leuk om bij haar te zijn! En dat snap ik!!”

Marcellino R.

“Marcel is heel betrouwbaar en was ontzettend lief met onze Labrador. Caruso is een sterke hond die iemand met ervaring nodig heeft, en dat ging bij Marcel helemaal goed. We hebben ook fijne tips uitgewisseld en de communicatie met hem was uitstekend. 🦮”

Stefanie T.

“Alessandro and his girlfriend May took such wonderful care of Rebel. As a dog with a naturally nervous temperament due to his breed, he can take a little time to feel comfortable in new surroundings, but they were incredibly patient, kind, and understanding with him. They kept me updated every day with lovely messages and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind and allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my time away. It was clear that Rebel was happy, well cared for, and receiving lots of attention and affection. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring and trustworthy people to look after their pet. Thank you both for taking such great care of Rebel!”

Olga S.

“Maggie always loves visiting Marlies! Plenty of time for relaxing as well as great adventures and trips! Couldn’t recommend Marlies more highly. Your dog will be in great and loving hands with her.”

Over: Hi! 😊 Honden zijn voor mij echt familie en ik vind het belangrijk dat ze zich veilig, geliefd en op hun gemak voelen. Ik heb een tijd op een ranch in Duitsland gewoond waar we twee Australian Shepherds en een Border Collie hadden. De Aussies heb ik grotendeels vanaf pup opgevoed en met onze Border Collie, die een lastig verleden had, ben ik ook meerdere keren naar de hondenschool geweest. Daardoor heb ik geleerd goed om te gaan met verschillende karakters en gedragingen. Daarnaast heb ik vaak opgepast op de Jack Russell van een vriendin tijdens vakanties en andere momenten. Ik hou van lange wandelingen, avontuur en actief bezig zijn met honden — vroeger nam ik ze zelfs regelmatig mee tijdens het paardrijden 😊 Ik ben geduldig, rustig en speels, maar durf ook duidelijk en consequent te zijn wanneer dat nodig is. Medicatie geven is geen probleem en ik sta open voor alle soorten honden. Ik geloof niet echt in “slechte rassen”, iedere hond is anders en verdient een eerlijke kans en liefdevolle begeleiding. Verder heb ik een auto, dus uitstapjes of ophalen is vaak mogelijk. En ja… als een hond graag bij je op bed kruipt voor extra knuffels, dan vind ik dat helemaal gezellig 🐾 Momenteel heb ik nog geen vaste baan, waardoor ik veel vrije tijd en flexibiliteit heb. Daardoor kan ik huisdieren veel aandacht geven, wandelingen plannen en mijn dagelijkse routine aanpassen aan hun behoeften Ik zorg voor een rustige, veilige en vertrouwde omgeving voor ieder huisdier en heb een omheind tuintje. Ik geef veel aandacht, houd rekening met hun karakter en behoeften en zorg voor duidelijke structuur, veilige wandelingen en goede verzorging

“Lisa was amazing, pre boarding and during the stay. Detailed communication when it's needed, everything on point. Will be returning and highly recommended.”

Ioannis M.

“Tripti did an awesome job with our young Labrador, Fudge. She's very loving and caring and it was clear Fudge felt completely at home with her. She kept us up to date with many photos and videos. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Daria is lovely. She treated pucho as if he was her own dog 💙 She walked him often and send me a lot of pictures. My dog definitely didn’t miss me! Highly recommend”

Maria G.

“Elliot and her partner did a great job! They handled food and instructions very well and always answered quickly. Live in a comfortable house in the centre, easy stairs. Sent pictures and updates. I think Coda loved them! Highly recommend to any dog owners out there.”

“Jacopo was fantastic. Highly recommend. Great communication, went above and beyond for our pup. Will use again for sure”

Over: I have had pets since I was six. Started with a dog, later cats. I now regularly dog-sit for friends and neighbors, and for the past year I have been actively walking multiple dogs in the neighborhood (6+). Some also stay at our home for extended periods. I can promise a stress free expierence for pets and owners alike :) I walk several times a day, with or without dogs. There are three parks and two (green) walking routes nearby, so there is plenty to sniff! Playing with a ball or other toys is also possible, as well as running with the dog if it needs exercise.

Simon O.

“Sara was amazing with Tulipa!! She took such great care of Tutu, you can really see she loves dogs. Highly recommend to anyone!!!”

Luiza G.

“On super short notice Megha and Ash took in our English Bulldog LouLou for a long weekend. They responded almost instantly, were extremely welcoming and finally made the stay for LouLou (and our family) super relaxed. She received all the attention she needed - and a lot more probably). Therefore we highly recommend this loving and warm couple - and thank them a lot. 🙏🏻”
