Over: Hi, my name is Giorgia, from Italy and i love animals! I grew up with 2 siblings and dogs, and I have been sitting friend's dog since 15 years. I live alone in Amsterdam and I would love to take care of your pet while you are busy or away. I know the importance of education and routine and I meticulously follow your rules! I am used to puppies as well as old dogs, loving equally anyone of them. I live close by a couple of parks where I would take them for nice walks and a bit of fun! Looking forward to help you and your furry friend! With love Giorgia I live alone in a nice apartment in the Rivierenbuurt and I am working from home, with a lot of flexibility, which makes possible to take care of your pet from mornings until nights. I can walk outside all the times that your dog needs, I am a professional cuddler 🙂 and I enjoy playing with furry friends! I don't have animals in my apartment, and it is a safe place at the second floor of a three floors building. If your dog cannot walk on stairs I can hold them door to door. The building is animal friendly!

“Max was extremely well taken care of and clearly happy the whole time. The sitter was attentive, trustworthy, and wonderful with him. I’d 100% book again and highly recommend ✨”

Maryem M.

“I highly recommend Azize as a dog sitter; she took amazing care of Dora and treated her like family! Throughout the entire stay, Azize kept me fully updated with regular messages and lovely updates. I could see that Dora felt incredibly comfortable, perfectly fed, and deeply loved with her. Azize organized great walks and fun playtime, which perfectly helped Dora forget that she was away from home. Dora came back happy, well-rested, and wonderfully showered with affection – we will definitely choose Azize again!”

Katarzyna R.

“Anja is lovely and was very understanding of Berry's nervousness to begin with and made her very comfortable. Definitely recommend!”

Megan B.

“Kevin is n lieve hondenoppas bij wie mijn foxje Cobi 10 dagen heeft verbleven. Ze heeft n goeie tijd gehad, te zien aan de foto’s die ik dagelijks kreeg. Ze heeft fijn gewandeld en gespeeld, en ze mocht op de bank liggen slapen terwijl Kevin aan t werk was. Kannie beter.”

Karin V.

“We had a wonderful experience leaving Ginger with Max for the day! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Max took her out for a long walk, and the updates and photos he sent throughout the day truly reflected just how much fun she was having. We really appreciated how attentive and caring Max was, keeping us informed and at ease the whole time. Ginger clearly felt comfortable and at home with him. We highly recommend Max to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. He went above and beyond to make sure Ginger had a fantastic day, and we couldn’t be happier!”

“I’m glad to have met Marlies. She was excellent being a temporary parent to my Sonny recently hen I had to travel for work. Marlies was hands on with Sonny’s care taking him for long walks to Vondelpark, to the forest, even hand feeding him. With her regular updates and responsiveness I was at ease knowi by Sonny is safe with someone who really cares. Thank you Marlies!”

Baradwaj S.

“Sayuri, Kushal and their family did an amazing job of caring for Mollie while we took our longest trip ever without her. Their pictures of the daily adventures they had together let us know that Mollie was having a great time while we were gone. Thank you!”

Peter N.

“Melisa and Geoff are lovely hosts! They treated our dog Romy as their own. They send a lot of photos and videos every day. And Romy fell in love with them.”

Harrison M.

“Vera and Davide were wonderful with our dog Basyuni. They walked him often, played with him and made sure he was comfortable. It was our first time using a sitter in this way, so very happy with the result. I would definitely recommend booking with Vera.”

AJ C.

Over: With years of experience caring for pets, I provide personalized and attentive services to meet each pet's unique needs (dogs, cats, rabbits). Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, or training, I ensure every pet feels loved, secure, and happy. Your furry friend will be in great hands! I live right by the Amstel River, so it's perfect for walks with your pet. I work remotely, so I have plenty of time to take care of your animal and go on walks during the week and weekends. I’m pretty active myself, so your pet will get lots of love and exercise! With me, pets are treated like part of the family. They have access to cozy spaces and outdoor play areas, and plenty of attention and affection. I also follow any specific care instructions provided by the owners to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well-cared.

“Coffee had a fantastic time at Ed's home. She came back so relaxed and happy! Ed is very communicative and you could see how much he loves looking after our furry friends :) Highly recommend him - and thank you again Ed!”

Shruti J.

“Ana and her partner were amazing sitters for my baby girl! I got photos and videos twice a day just like I asked, and they took Emma on long play sessions, walks, and even a visit to the tulip fields. She looked so happy in every video. I’d definitely recommend them and will be booking again. Thanks so much, Ana!”

Maria Alejandra I.

“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.

“Emma is an amazing cat sitter! She did two drop in visits for Syd and sent photos regularly. We were experiencing a heat wave while she was visiting and made sure curtains were closed , water was full and Syd didn’t spend too much time outside. He really warmed up to her. Emma also left the place really clean and helped take care of my plants which looked great upon our return. She’s a really kind person and I will book her again !”

Karolina S.

“Xiaobing did an amazing job with my 2-year old Kroket during his boarding at her place. He was obviously scared as all cats are in a new surrounding, but she did everything possible to keep him comfortable. She also dropped me frequent updates about his situation and was keen to learn more on how to help Kroket feel at home in her home. I can't thank Xiaobing enough and would definitely recommend her if you're looking for someone to care for your fur-baby :)”

Elie L.

“Elena was fantastic at taking care of my two cats! I really appreciated the updates and all the photos of my kitties!! I will definitely ask for her services again the next time I have to travel. Thanks a lot Elena! 😊”

Aurelie L.

“Absolutely wonderful experience. Irene and her daughters took such great care of my pet and treated them with so much love and attention. Super kind, reliable, and clearly true animal lovers. I felt completely at ease the whole time. Couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter — highly recommended!”

Ege F.

Over: I also have experience caring for cats with different personalities, from very social to more independent or shy. I understand how important it is to respect their space while still providing attention, play, and care on their terms. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, administering basic medications if needed, and making sure your cat feels safe and relaxed while you’re away. I take a calm and gentle approach, which works especially well for more sensitive cats.

“We vonden Rebecca omdat onze oppas op het laatste moment niet kon. Zo fijn dat je eerst kennis maakt en vooral ziet hoe onze kat Charlie reageerde. We kregen elke dag foto’s en filmpjes van een blije kat. Rebecca liet Charlie rustig wennen en al snel was het helemaal goed. Wij hebben een relaxte vakantie gehad omdat we wisten dat Charlie op z’n gemak was. Voor de volgende vakantie vragen wij Rebecca weer! ❤️”

Marjon V.

“Oscar took great care of our cats while we were away. They really enjoyed having him around and were very happy and relaxed when we got back! We will definitely be booking Oscar again :)”

Jacob W.

“Wij zijn ontzettend blij met de zorg die Miao Y. aan onze kat Lilly heeft gegeven. Vanaf de eerste dag voelden we dat Lilly in goede handen was. We kregen elke dag een leuke update met foto’s, waardoor we konden zien hoe ontspannen en tevreden Lilly was. Dat gaf ons enorm veel rust en maakte dat we echt onbezorgd van onze vakantie konden genieten. Daarnaast heeft Miao Y. ons huis met veel respect behandeld. Alles was netjes en verzorgd achtergelaten, alsof we nooit waren weggeweest. Miao Y. is betrouwbaar, zorgzaam en betrokken. We zouden haar zonder enige twijfel opnieuw vragen en kunnen haar van harte aanbevelen aan iedereen die op zoek is naar een liefdevolle kattenoppas. Heel erg bedankt voor alles!”

Rosanne T.

“Yoonah took very good care of my cat during my vacation. She communicates clearly and provided daily updates so I would be stress free on holidays. My cat loved her. Would 100% recommend her!”

Max M.

“I am super happy with Martina's services. She really knows cats and managed ti build trust with my two cats within 1 day. She is very friendly and open and left my flat spotless and my cats very happy. I would book her again anytime. She really is one of the nicest person's.”

Renee D.

Over: I’ve taken care of cats for family friends back in Australia. Moved to Amsterdam for my masters starting September! Can’t wait to meet more cats - I love action figures too. Will take cool pics of your cats and my action figures✌🏻

“EnJia took great care of Vesa while I was away and kept me posted along the way which gave me the peace of mind I needed to enjoy my trip. Thanks a mil for your help and will use you again in the future.”

Risa B.

Over: I’ve taken care of cats since i was 16, including my neighbours, family friends and connections through pet organisations. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved and I take pride in creating a calm environment where they can relax and be themselves.

Over: I’m a German au pair currently living in Amsterdam, caring for two children during the week. Outside of those hours, I have flexible availability and would love to focus on cat sitting—both to save up for university and because I genuinely enjoy caring for cats. I have hands-on experience looking after cats in different settings. I regularly feed and care for my neighbor’s cat when they are on holiday, and I’ve also previously worked as an au pair in a household with a cat, where I was responsible for daily care such as feeding, litter box cleaning, and keeping the cat company. Growing up, my family couldn’t have dogs or cats due to my dad’s allergy to animal dander, but I did have pets such as budgies. This taught me responsibility and attentiveness to animals’ needs from a young age and made me especially appreciative of every opportunity to care for cats now. I’m calm, patient, and respectful of cats’ individual personalities. Whether your cat is playful or more independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Over: I've had cats for over 10 years. I've seen them grow and learned their needs and behaviours that usually vary depending on their age, gender or where they come from basically.

“Todo perfecto con Jorge, comunicación muy fácil y hasta ha conseguido q la gata algun día le deje tocarle, todo un logro con lo miedosa que es! Genial! 😊😊”

Viky R.

Over: I grew up in farm in Northern Spain, so I've always been around dogs, cats, chickens, sheeps, goats, pigs and horses. I love animals and they usually love me back! I will put all my effort to have you and your pet as comfortable as possible. I'm looking forward to hear from you :) I just finished my masters degree and I'm actively looking for a job in the city. Right now all my jobs al project based so I'm pretty flexible. I will walk with your dog, stay at your place or go feed them when necessary always spending quality time to keep them happy when you can't be there

“Wenxi was a good match with Nala & Indy, she sent daily updates with cute video’s! Will book her again! ”

Juliette G.

“Öykü is a very friendly sitter, she took care of my cat for a couple of days. It was my first time using a sitter, it worked out great. I could relax during my time away knowing she was there taking care and looking after Pixie ?. Thank you plenty ?‍⬛!”

L. D.

Over: I'm a pet lover, always have been! Grew up with pets and have had experience living with animals since young. I've had tortoises, fish and cats! My grandparents also had dogs so I have some experience with that. My longest pet was a little cat named Kitty I had from a kitten and handled everything for, from changing the litter box to taking her to the vet and giving her medication. Unfortunately she passed away last year at the age of 17. I'm a student, so it's quite easy for me to head over after university to take your pet out on a walk or feed them. Also, currently I live alone, making it easy for me to adjust my schedule and stay out late if needed. I can pet sit, so feed them, change litter, give medication if needed :) I'm also totally happy to take your pet out on walks! Living with pets for most of my life, I'm quite observant and have some experience in noticing when a pet's acting a little odd as well

“Michelle is supervriendelijk en Alfie gaat er met veel plezier heen. Hij is nog jong (pas 4 maanden) en is nog niet zo aan gewend aan weg zijn van het vrouwtje. Maar hij doet het al supergoed en Michelle is gewoon erg goed met honden, dus Alfie gaat volgende week weer! Michelle houdt me gedurende de dag op de hoogte en als ik haar een appje stuur antwoord ze altijd heel snel, soms zelfs met een fotootje! Fijn om zo op de hoogte gehouden te worden!”

Hester H.

“Cristina is the best. As all previous dates she took very good care of Hera and we thank her for the care, attention and patience she has with Hera!”

Vlad A.

“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”

Connie & Christophe B.

“Enthusiastic, caring and friendly doglover. Marta is easygoing and has a big heart for any dog. She keeps in contact with the owner during the stay from the dog. She thinks about a solution when something goes wrong and does it all with an open-minded spirit. Loved to meet her and she did everything she could to make it a pleasant stay for my dog. If you're looking for a nice and friendly caretaker for your dog, just contact Marta!”

Erik M.

“Highly recommended for daycare! Azize looked after Dora for the day, and she did an absolutely wonderful job. I received lovely photos, so I was completely stress-free the whole time. It was clear that she felt incredibly safe and happy from the very first minute. I am so grateful for Azize's care and will definitely book her again!”

Katarzyna R.

“Caoimhe and Alex took great care of Charlie. He got along really well with their 9 month old toy poodle, Waffles. They took him for several short pee breaks during the day which we really appreciated since it is quite hot out to do longer walks today. They also kept us well informed throughout the day and shared plenty of cute photo and videos of Charlie and Waffles. Thank you both!”

Jennifer M.

“Eric is wonderful! He takes care of our pup routinely during the week while we are at work and is so kind, extremely responsive, and keeps us updated with great photos throughout the stay. We have a high-energy pup and Eric keeps him active with multiple walks and outdoor time throughout the day. His pick up and drop off has made our work days so smooth and stress-free. We know our dog is in safe hands the entire time. Highly recommend!”

Katie C.

Over: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a very pet-loving family where we always had at least three dogs, sometimes four, alongside rabbits, fish, and other pets. Over the years I’ve lived with and cared for a wide variety of different breeds, including Bernese Mountain Dogs, Newfoundlands, a Cocker Spaniel mix, a Maltese Poodle, and a Boerboel. Having had both giant breeds and smaller dogs as pets has really taught me how different every dog is and how important it is to adapt to their individual personality, energy level, and needs. I regularly took our three Bernese Mountain Dogs on hikes in the mountains and on adventures to forests and lakes, while our smaller dogs much preferred a relaxing walk on the beach or park. I now work from home full-time, with no pets currently, and live just a short walk from Vondelpark, which means I have the flexibility to give plenty of attention, walks and playtime throughout the day. I work from home full-time, which means I’m around throughout the day and can give pets plenty of attention and cuddles! I live just a 5-minute walk from Vondelpark and usually head there at least once a day, so dogs staying with me can enjoy regular walks and lots of time outdoors. Whether your pet loves being active or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to adapt to their routine! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities! I live in a calm, pet-friendly apartment with a secure balcony and easy access to Vondelpark. I will follow your instructions carefully regarding feeding, exercise, and house rules, and I’ll keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away without a worry!

“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.

“Our dog Sam had a great time with Jacopo. Appreciate the dedication, the preparation, and the live updates. Would definitely use his services again. Thank you!”

Over: Hi, my name is Giorgia, from Italy and i love animals! I grew up with 2 siblings and dogs, and I have been sitting friend's dog since 15 years.

I don't have animals in my apartment, and it is a safe place at the second floor of a three floors building. If your dog cannot walk on stairs I can hold them door to door. The building is animal friendly!

Over: I love animals, taking care of them, playing and spending time with them either on walks or at home. My cat is currently staying with my parents back in Greece and I really miss her, so it would make me really happy to fill my empty space and free time with your lovely pets' positive energy, whenever you need help with pet-sitting or -walking. I have had cats my whole life, as well as two dogs, and I occasionally pet-sit for my friends. Therefore, I have plenty of pet-sitting experience with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes.

Over: I first discovered Rover when searching for a sitter for my own pug, who now lives with my parents to keep them company. This experience helps me understand exactly what pet parents want—reliability, flexibility, and a lot of love for their fur babies. With 4 years of pet care experience, I’m here to give your dog the same attentive and tailored care, whether that means playtime, walks, or extra support for puppies and senior dogs. I'm happy to offer a safe, caring environment for your pet, giving you peace of mind while you're away! I have a flexible work-from-home policy, so I’m able to be with your pup 24/7. I can easily take breaks throughout the day to go on walks that match their schedule and keep them happy and active. This setup allows me to provide constant care and attention, so your dog always has company and a comfortable routine while you’re away! Your fur baby would stay with me while I work from home and we'll take nice walks that adjust to their routines. I have a large apartment and a nice (enclosed) terrace that they can chill around.

“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.

“Melisa took very good care of my puppy and was really patient with him! She sent me plenty of photos and videos throughout the day and explained how the day went when I went to pick him up”

Ambra S.

“May was really great. She took care of Ziggy for the whole day and sent pictures and videos, which made me feel very confident that he was having a great time and was being very well taken care off. At the end of the day Ziggy was happy and tired. Definitely recommend May to anyone.”

Celeste N.

“María Teresa is amazing. She gives the attention my puppy needs. Bruno was even sad of leaving Maria Teresa’s house. He gets along really well with Pumba ❤️”

Maria Camila M.

Over: I’ve been surrounded by animals all my life, getting to bond easily with them, specially dogs… I’ve been cat, dog and bird sitting all around the world. My daily goal is to walk 10.000 steps a day, so I am taking walking breaks from work and is the way that I start and finish my day. It would even better to walk with a dog. I make sure they have water and food when needed and walk the dogs after each meal and always find the best stick to play. With cats I clean the litter every day and brush their hair if they have it long. I would try to keep their owners rules at mine but if they convince me to be on my couch with puppy eyes it won’t be my fault.

Over: Ik heb eigenlijk altijd met dieren gewoont en er hart voor gehad, zelf heb ik bij een dierenhotel gewerkt met voornamelijk honden en beseft dat het veel leuker is om voor mezelf te werken zolang er maar honden om me heen zijn. Ook ben ik op mijn vorige werkplek getraint om met lastigere honden om te kunnen gaan wat ookal zeg ik het zelf best goed doe. Ik heb op het moment 1 hond waar ik structureel op pas en het liefst spendeer ik mijn vrije tijd ook met honden want ja als je doet waar je van houdt hoef je geen enkele dag te werken. Thuis kunnen ze lekker op de slaapbank of op 1 van de 2 poefjes liggen of op bed mist ze schoon zijn hahhaa, vondelpark is bij mij om de hoek dus daar zijn we ook regelmatig te vinden.

“Ale was amazing with our dog, Willow. She took her on several walks, kept me updated throughout the day & even took her to the park. When I picked Willow up, I felt like she was sad to leave Ale, which is the best sign ever. We’ll bring Willow back any time to spend the day with Ale!”

Jan Willem L.

“Pablo is great! It was a last minute request and we are grateful that Pablo could accommodate it. As soon as Milo met him, he got completely comfortable with Pablo. We had a wonderful experience and would definitely have him for walks again!”

Shivani R.

Over: I've taken care of my family dog since I was 14, and later I got a beautiful cat named April. In the past years, I regularly sat with my friend's cats and dogs when they traveled, and helped with neighbors' pets too. I love and care deeply about pets and always take the best care of them, so you can be sure your pet will be in the best hands. I'm currently working part-time and working from home. My schedule is very flexible, and I am free on weekends. I can also stay overnight or on holidays if needed. I live in a pet-friendly apartment that is safe and has enough space for both cats and dogs to play! I can also arrange a dedicated area for toys and sleep/bed.

Over: Ik heb vanaf jongs af aan altijd dieren om me heen gehad, konijnen, katten, honden, hamsters noem het maar op, ik hield toen al van de aanwezigheid en liefde van de dier. Zelf heb ik een poes van bijna 7 dat echt mijn kindje is en het het liefst zou ik ook een hond willen maar daar vind ik m’n woonruimte klein voor dus vandaar dat ik met liefde voor andere honden (en katten) zorg. Ik heb in de tijd dat ik in LA woonde voor 4 honden gezorgd, het was voor mij altijd weer een feestje om een lange wandeling te maken, zonnetje, palmbomen en honden wat wil je nog meer! :) Helaas is het in Amsterdam niet altijd mooi weer maar ook hier heb ik voor andermans honden gezorgd, oa als dierenbuddy, waar ik voor een oudere dame haar hond wekelijks uitliet. Mijn moeder heeft ook een hond die ik vaak uitlaat en naar de kapper breng en ophaal. Verder ken ik veel mensen met honden en die zijn altijd stapelgek om me (en andersom). Ook heb ik in het verleden op katten van buren en vrienden gepast en af en toe doe ik dat nog steeds voor een buurmeisje. Ik weet dat omgang met dieren gewoon mijn passie is en ik wil daarom uiteindelijk ook mijn eigen hondenuitlaat bedrijf beginnen. Ik ga binnenkort ook starten met een cursus dieren ehbo en ik ben ook veel aan het lezen over honden gedrag. Ik hoop dat mijn profiel je aanspreekt en ik met alle liefde voor je kleine (of grote) vriend kan zorgen. Ik werk 4 dagen per week, dinsdag, zaterdag en zondag zijn m’n vrije dagen dus dan ben ik vrij flexibel om voor je hond/kat te zorgen. Maandag en vrijdag overdag ben ik beschikbaar tot 15 uur en dinsdag, woensdag & donderdagavond ben ik ook beschikbaar. Ik heb zelf een kat thuis en zij is gewend om alleen te zijn dus ik weet niet of ik de huisdier bij mijzelf thuis kan opvangen

Over: Two Dalmatians, a chihuahua, a Pomeranian and three mutts were my siblings growing up. I took care of them through every vet visit, may it be grooming days, sick days, or the few times they’ve given birth to puppies! I currently work part time so I am mostly at home and can do check-ins or walks, this is updated on my Rover calendar. I stay alert on walks and during home-sitting with pets. Care instructions for your little one will be carefully followed and depending on your preference, I can send updates throughout the sitting.

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

J.C G.

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: Hi! I’m Liz :) Speaking as a dog owner for eight years, I genuinely cherish every moment of this journey and I would absolutely happy to meet your dog/cat and enjoy all the time together! I learnt the most is that each pet has their own characteristics. For my dog she’s a bit shy, so at first not only teach her to do tricks, we encourage her to socialize with other dogs. But gradually I found out that, it is just not her - and as long as she felt safe and comfortable, that’s all we ask for. So not only treat each pet with care, I also treat them with respect and love! I’m currently working part time until September, so the schedule might be flexible. I’m usually at home Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Let’s talk more! We have an unfenced garden shared with other residents in the apartment, I can take the leash and walk them out here. There might be other dogs walking around during peak hours, so there’s always chances to make friends

Over: Hi! I’m Hare, a passionate animal lover with years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, feeding, giving medication if needed, or simply keeping your pet company, I provide attentive and reliable care. I know how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout every visit. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always respect their individual needs, routines and boundaries. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel completely at ease while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I have a flexible schedule and provide loving, reliable care throughout the week. I always follow your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Your pet’s safety comes first. I follow all care instructions carefully and provide a calm, clean, and loving environment. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages.

Over: I have been taking care of dogs in the Netherlands for the past year. My father is a vet so growing up I was always around dogs. I will be the only carer. I live in a family with 2 daughters who adore dogs. They are 8 and 9. Our grandpa is a veterinary so I always grew up around dogs. I will be the caregiver by myself. I have a nice fenced garden and live in a very large house, near a green area. Very pet friendly neighbourhood. I love going for long walks in the bos.

Over: I've been raised around pets, I've had many dogs and a few cats but I really enjoyed spending time with my dog and I think they enjoy spending time with me too. I have a full schedule cause I have a full time job, but I will find a few hours to take your dog/cat walking or taking care of him/her at your place. I will take care of him/her as if it was mine. Pets are special creatures that needs to be protected and respected, plain and simple

“Hemos empezado esta semana con los paseos y GENIAL, Angie adora a los animales, mi perro es muy desconfiado con la gente al principio y con ella desde el primer momento se llevaron bien. Nos informa de los paseos en cada momento y con detalle de fotos. Encantados.”

Over: Pet Care Experience I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, mainly by helping friends while they were away. My responsibilities included feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, walking dogs, and spending quality time playing and keeping pets company. I always pay close attention to each pet’s routine and personality to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my calm, patient, and attentive approach. I take time to build trust with each animal and respect their boundaries, whether they are playful, shy, or independent. I understand how important consistency is for pets, so I carefully follow the owner’s instructions and routines. I also live in Amsterdam Zuidoost, which allows me to be flexible and reliable with visits. My goal is always to make sure pets feel relaxed, cared for, and loved—just like they would with their own family. Pet care fits well into my weekday routine. I’m available on weekdays and can plan visits flexibly during the day or early evening. I always make sure to arrive on time and give pets my full attention during each visit. I treat every pet owner’s home with care, respect, and responsibility. I follow all instructions regarding feeding, walking, and playtime, and make sure water bowls, litter boxes, and living spaces are clean and safe. I ensure doors and windows are secure and supervise pets closely to prevent accidents. My goal is to provide peace of mind to owners while giving cats and dogs gentle, attentive care in a safe and comfortable environment.

Over: Hi! My name is Jorge, and I’ve spent years surrounded by animals who have made my life so much happier. I have Otto, my slightly mischievous orange cat, who has been part of my life for 5 years. 🐱 We rescued him from a small village in Spain where he had been abandoned and had almost lost an eye. With patience, love, and quite a few eye drops and medications (which he didn’t enjoy at all!), he made a full recovery. He now lives happily with my family in Spain. I’ve also cared for Patín, my aunt’s senior cat, who I loved spending quiet time with, especially sitting together in the sun while he purred non-stop. ☀️ In addition, I’ve spent the past 4 years helping care for Junior, my partner’s family dog 🐶. We’ve taken care of his daily needs, including regular walks (up to three times a day), and I’ve also handled situations requiring extra care, such as paw issues, digestive problems, and eye treatments. This has given me hands-on experience with both routine care and more specific needs. Currently, I live in Amsterdam and do not have any pets at home, which means I can fully adapt to your pet’s needs, whether that’s caring for cats or dogs, either in your home or mine. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet as if they were their own. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, or boarding, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. ❤️ I’m really looking forward to meeting your furry companion! I’m currently based in Amsterdam and actively looking for a job as a designer, which means I have full availability at the moment and can easily adapt my schedule to your pet’s needs. Once I start working, I’ll still be available on weekends (Friday to Sunday) and during weekday evenings. I live in a very green area near the Amstel River, which is perfect for walks and outdoor time. I enjoy staying active (going for walks, running, or cycling) but I also appreciate quieter moments at home, like watching a movie, cooking, or reading. Because of this balance, I can easily adapt to different pets and personalities, whether they’re energetic and playful or calm and more independent. ☺️ I always adapt my care to each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after. In my client’s home, I respect the pet’s usual environment and routine as much as possible, following feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions. I also make sure they get attention, playtime, and companionship so they don’t feel stressed while their owner is away. In my home, I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment. Since I currently don’t have pets at home, I can fully focus on your pet and adapt the space to their needs. I make sure they get enough exercise, mental stimulation, and rest, depending on their personality. I’m also comfortable providing basic care such as administering medication, cleaning litter boxes, and handling feeding routines. I always keep owners updated with messages and photos, so they feel reassured while they’re away.

Over: Hi! I've taken care of several pets, in high school I used to take care of my neighbours dog, I took care of my other neighbours cats, I have a little birdie at home myself :). I do not have experience with medical applications such as injections, but I am more than happy to company your buddies and take care od their needs! I'm currently studying, this semester is calmer than usual so most of my week is free. So I am quite flexible with scheduling! Although during exam weeks I will be less available than usual. Since I live in a student housing, I cannot bring little buddies home with me :(. However, I love spending time with them anywhere! I can company them at home according to house rules, or we can go on walks or play at parks.

Over: I’m a German au pair currently living in Amsterdam, taking care of two children during the week. Outside of those hours, I have a lot of flexibility and would love to spend my time pet-sitting—both to save up for university and because I genuinely love animals. Growing up, my family couldn’t have dogs or cats due to my dad’s allergy to animal dander, but I did have pets such as budgies. This taught me responsibility and daily animal care from a young age and made me appreciate every opportunity I now have to spend time with animals. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I regularly look after my boyfriend’s dog when his family is away, I feed and care for my neighbor’s cat during holidays, and I’ve often gone on walks with dogs belonging to family friends. I’m comfortable with routines, walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets calm, loving attention. I’m responsible, patient, and affectionate, and I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. During the week, I work as an au pair from 7:00–9:00 AM and 3:00–8:00 PM. This gives me a large free time window late in the morning and early afternoon, ideal for dog walks, feeding cats, or short check-in visits. I’m also available early mornings and in the evenings when needed. On weekends, I’m fully flexible and available for longer stays or extended pet care. I’m a calm, patient, and empathetic person who helps pets feel safe and comfortable. I respect routines, boundaries, and individual needs, and I take my responsibility as a pet sitter very seriously. My goal is to provide a secure, calm, and stress-free environment where your pet feels well cared for while you’re away.

“Ale was great. On time, great with my dogs, reliable and personable. Very good English. A trust-able person.”

Over: I grew up with a dog since I was little, ever since I was 8 years old I took care of it. After I moved out I sat multiple dogs of my friends and family! :) I just graduated from my Masters and I am now in between jobs. Therefore, I would love to help you take care for your dog or cat! Throughout the day a dog is your companion! 🐶 Taking them for a walk three times a day and playing around with them or going outside whenever they are seeking some love is something that cheers me up lots :).

Over: I have grown up with dogs, cats, and horses. I am very good with senior animals and making things accessible for them. I just worked with rescue horses and massage therapy for horses. I really love taking care of animals! I am available for boarding on the weekends and some days during the week. That depends on my freelance schedule as a dance and theatre teacher at the universities for the arts. If you ask me three days in advance, I will know my availability. I can adapt to the needs of your pet. I am in a flat on the 5th floor with a balcony. We can take a lift downstairs where there is a big grass area for walking and playing away from the street and with a leash for safety.

Over: I have been taking care of dogs since over 10 years ago. I LOVE dogs, positive trainning and dog wellbeing. I am happy fun person and I like to spend my time with dogs and walking. I have normally full availability the weekends and during the week after 18:30pm. After September I will have full availability for both boarding and staying over. I live in a very big flat surrounded by parks and nice areas to walk with your dog. I also have my bike to travel to your own area and I am always eager to explore new natural areas with your dog :) If your pet is a cat I can stay over or also not stay during the night but spend the day :)

Over: I have an adorable crazy cat that trained me to every possible situation! I also learned how to take care of my boyfriend’s pitbull that, despite being just a big baby, is very strong. So whatever it’s is, crazy cat or energetic dog, I got it! ;) I’m a student at the UvA, so most of my week is free and I can take care of you babies. Let’s talk and organize our schedules! I live by myself in a small studio, so your baby is free to roam wherever they want! Given the small space, I will make sure to frequently bring dogs for walks and provide plenty of playtime for cats!

“She was incredibly sweet and attentive, always keeping me updated. Zeca felt completely comfortable and happy with her! I loved everything about the experience and highly recommend her.”

Joyce S.

“I highly recommend Azize as a dog sitter; she took amazing care of Dora and treated her like family! Throughout the entire stay, Azize kept me fully updated with regular messages and lovely updates. I could see that Dora felt incredibly comfortable, perfectly fed, and deeply loved with her. Azize organized great walks and fun playtime, which perfectly helped Dora forget that she was away from home. Dora came back happy, well-rested, and wonderfully showered with affection – we will definitely choose Azize again!”

Katarzyna R.

“We had a wonderful experience leaving Ginger with Max for the day! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. Max took her out for a long walk, and the updates and photos he sent throughout the day truly reflected just how much fun she was having. We really appreciated how attentive and caring Max was, keeping us informed and at ease the whole time. Ginger clearly felt comfortable and at home with him. We highly recommend Max to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter. He went above and beyond to make sure Ginger had a fantastic day, and we couldn’t be happier!”

Over: In my opinion, looking after dogs it's a great responsibility because who owner of a dog I know that it is very important for the family. About their care, dogs are all different, like people, and each one has their own way of communicating and feeling trustworthy. I like to respect the dog's time to feel comfortable with me to have a friendly relationship and make them feel safe. I have a flexible hours because I work by project, so if we arrange a day before, I can adapt my schedule. Also I don't have any problem to look after them a workable day as well as a weekend. First at all, I would ask the owner if the dog had special treatment for health or behavior. Second, I would ask what type of game it usually plays and I would adapt to its way of playing. Third, what are its times for eating or going for a walk.

Over: Your dog will be treated like family here with lots of belly rubs and deeply loved. And of course, I’ll send you regular photos and videos so you can feel close and reassured while you’re away 🐾 Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I have plenty of time in the mornings and afternoons to dedicate to walks, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I live in an apartment, so it’s a safe and controlled environment where your dog won’t have anywhere to run off. I always make sure the space is comfortable, clean, and secure.Walks can be done on or off leash, depending on your preference and what your dog is used to.

“Celeste took great care of our dog on multiple occasions! She is reliable and knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors & little quirks. She communicates promptly and professionally. Our dog is always happy to stay with Celeste!”

“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”

“We waren best gespannen om ons hondje Blizzard voor het eerst bij een onbekende achter te laten, maar vanaf het eerste contact met Shaima hadden we meteen een goed gevoel. Ze was ontzettend warm en liefdevol, en haar ervaring met honden straalde er vanaf. Dat stelde ons enorm gerust. Tijdens het verblijf hield Shaima ons dagelijks op de hoogte met lieve berichtjes, updates en leuke foto’s. Ze nam echt de tijd om ons mee te nemen in hoe het met Blizzard ging, wat we als heel prettig hebben ervaren. Ze stelde gerust vragen wanneer dat nodig was, wat haar zorgzaamheid en betrokkenheid alleen maar bevestigde. Wat we ook enorm waardeerden: Shaima merkte dat Blizzard soms wat vaker naar buiten moest omdat hij het niet altijd even goed kon ophouden. Ze heeft zich daar meteen op aangepast en is meerdere keren korte wandelmomentjes met hem gegaan. Zo lief, ze keek echt naar wat hij nodig had. En het allerbelangrijkste: Blizzard had het zó naar zijn zin, dat we bij het ophalen bijna het gevoel kregen dat hij liever nog even bij Shaima bleef. Op de foto’s en video’s zagen we ook hoe blij en ontspannen hij was, en hoe liefdevol zij met hem omging. Wij komen zéker terug bij Shaima. Het was voor ons (en voor Blizzard!) echt een ontzettend fijne en warme ervaring. We raden haar met alle vertrouwen aan!”
