“Hele fijne oppas voor onze hond Mila. Laura houdt goed contact met je. Neemt de tijd voor meerdere wandelingen op een dag. Laura stemt alles keurig met je af. Superblij met deze oppasmogelijkheid en Mila ook!”
Over: I have 2 dogs of my own and years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Your dog will be coming into a calm, dog-savvy home run by people who genuinely love this - not somewhere treating it as a side hustle. I offer boarding at my place, house sitting at yours, and dog walks in and around Hilversum and the Gooi. I keep numbers small on purpose so that your dog gets real attention, a proper routine, and someone who actually notices if something feels off. I use an intake form with every booking so I know your dog's routine, quirks, health needs, and what they're like with other dogs before anything is confirmed. No surprises for either of us. I am additionally comfortable with senior dogs who need calm over chaos and dogs with specific routines or sensitivities. I ask for: honest answers on the intake form and a quick meet-and-greet before boarding or sitting bookings. Pet care isn't something I fit around a busy schedule, it is the priority when I have a booking. I work from home, which means dogs in my care aren't left alone for long stretches during the day. Walks, feeding, rest, and outdoor time follow your dog's natural routine as closely as possible, not mine. I keep bookings small so I'm never stretched across too many dogs at once. My home is calm, dog-proofed, and already shared with 2 dogs of my own, so incoming dogs arrive into a settled environment. Before any boarding or sitting booking I use a detailed intake form covering health, behavior, feeding, and emergency contacts, plus a meet-and-greet to make sure it's a good fit. I use a signed agreement with every client. If something feels off with a dog during a stay such as appetite, energy, behavior, I notice and I communicate that. Owners hear from me with updates; they don't have to chase me for them.
“This was the first time we use the services and I must say we are 100% satisfied. We left our babies and I felt like the most nervous mother who just left her children for the first time at pre school. I was nervous and emotional. Vatsala was amazing. We got updates and photos. Vatsala has been patient and answered all our questions. She has helped us feel comfortable knowing our babies are well cared for. If you are looking for a sitter Vatsala is the best you could ever get”
Over: I've had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and support. We have our own much-loved dog, Oskar, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. We are a warm, affectionate family and will treat your dog like one of our own, providing plenty of love, attention, playtime and cuddles in a safe, caring home. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work from home three days a week, and on the other two days my partner, Will, works from home, so there is always someone at home to provide company, care and attention. We have a 10-year-old English Springer Spaniel, Oskar, who is a much-loved member of our family. He enjoys two walks a day, along with additional toilet breaks whenever needed, so any dogs staying with us will be part of our regular routine. We understand the importance of exercise, companionship and maintaining a dog's usual schedule, and we'll ensure your pet feels safe, happy and well cared for throughout their stay. We follow each dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medication and any specific care instructions. Our home is clean, pet-friendly and ideal for dogs who enjoy companionship and affection. We have a gentle 10-year-old English Springer Spaniel, Oskar, who is very used to other dogs. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, as either I or my partner works from home each day. I will always keep owners updated with messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, settled and having a wonderful time.
Over: Regelmatig passen we op honden uit de buurt, laten we ze uit of blijft er eentje paar nachten bij ons thuis. Altijd maar 1 hond gelijkertijd die veel liefde en aandacht krijgt van onze twee tiener zonen (10 en 13). We wonen gelijkvloers met tuin. We wonen direct naast een bos en dus is een mooie wandeling snel van start. Met twee schoolgaande kinderen is er door altijd iemand bij ons thuis. Vader werkt aan huis en kinderen geven tijdens vakanties en na school graag veel liefde en aandacht aan de hond waar we op passen. We passen graag op een hond bij ons thuis om rust te behouden en aandacht te kunnen geven. Waarbij hij/zij zijn vertouwde eigen spullen mee kan nemen. We wonen gelijkvloers met ruime tuin.
“Sam took care of Sadie for 5 days and she did a wonderful job at it! She is a very friendly, approachable person, with a relaxed attitude. She sent me lots of pics and video's so that I could enjoy my holidays without worrying. Her two dogs were also very nice company for mine. The house and garden are a perfect environment for dogs! She communicates very well and consulted me when she wasn't sure about how to treat a situation. I would definitely recommend her and will most probably make use of her service in the future. Thank you Sam!”
“Fantastic support for our last minute booking for our precious Gemma. Ash has been responsive the whole time, and very caring. Gemma had a lovely stay, enjoying her walks and outings. Thank you so much!”
“It was such a relief to meet Christa! To find her such a lovely and responsible person, I could absolutely trust her with my dog. He’s quite a tough dog to handle with lots of precautions, but she was perfectly able to deal with him and fully respected all my rules with discipline. They got along very well, and I was impressed - especially it was my first time ever to leave my dog with a stranger. Christa was also easy to communicate with, responsive, sent me updates and was flexible. I will go exclusive from here on out!”
Over: Ik neem de tijd om het gedrag en voorkeuren van jouw huisdier te leren kennen en stem de wandelingen en oppasmomenten daarop af. Baasjes kunnen rekenen op duidelijke communicatie en regelmatige updates, zodat je altijd met een gerust hart weet hoe het met je maatje gaat. Met mijn enthousiasme, geduld en liefde voor dieren zorg ik voor een veilige én leuke ervaring, elke keer opnieuw. Momenteel heb ik een flexibel leven, ik heb weinig tot geen vaste verplichtingen gedurende de week. Wegens meerdere enkeloperaties heb ik afscheid moeten nemen van mijn hockeycarriere en dus vaste verplichtingen gedurende de avonden en weekenden. Wel werk ik fulltime maar is de mogelijkheid daar om thuis te werken. Voor mijn werk moet ik af en toe wel eens naar een klant of kantoor, het kan dus voorkomen dat het huisdier een ochtend of middag alleen is. Ik zorg voor genoeg aandacht, speeltijd en knuffels, maar ook voor rust wanneer dat nodig is. Uiteraard let ik goed op voeding, water en eventuele speciale verzorging die belangrijk is voor jouw huisdier. Jouw viervoeter krijgt bij mij de zorg en liefde alsof het mijn eigen huisdier is.
“We’ve left out Lab Saga and our french bulldog Luna with Monique, Sam and their lovely dog Charlie for our weekend away. Since it was our first boarding experience we didn’t know what to expect. But Monique offered a first meet and great and after that it all went smoothly. She has sent picture updates and answered all our questions while we were away. Saga and Luna seem to enjoy their stay as well. I would definitely write to her again in the future. Thanks for everything 🐾”
“Mukessh was fantastic! He took excellent care of Zuko for 6 days and left us feeling free and assured that our buddy was in good hands. Mukessh clearly enjoyed his time with Zuko... and that's really the best judge of a great dog-sitter! We'll definitely keep Mukessh in mind next time we leave town and Zuko needs some dog-sitting.”
“Rosina took care of Chaku and Ziggy for 5 days. From the moment I dropped them off at her place, I felt confident I could trust her. I was totally right. The cats clearly had a good time. They looked very relaxed in the pictures she sent me during their stay at her place and they were totally fine when I picked them up. I'm very satisfied and I recommend Rosina 100%.”

Over: Katten zijn eigenlijk altijd al een groot onderdeel van mijn leven geweest. In mijn familie hebben bijna al mijn familieleden katten, waardoor ik van jongs af aan veel met katten ben opgegroeid. Ik ben daardoor niet alleen gewend aan hun aanwezigheid, maar heb ook echt een sterke band met ze opgebouwd. Ik ben een echte dierenliefhebber en vind het heerlijk om tijd met katten door te brengen. Wat mij onderscheidt, is dat ik het belangrijk vind dat een kat zich niet alleen verzorgd, maar ook op zijn gemak en geliefd voelt wanneer zijn baasje er niet is. Ik vind het ontzettend leuk om met ze te spelen, te knuffelen en aandacht te geven, maar ik respecteer het ook als een kat liever wat rust of ruimte heeft. Elke kat heeft tenslotte zijn eigen karakter en behoeftes. Voor mij is kattenoppassen dan ook meer dan alleen eten geven en de kattenbak schoonmaken. Ik vind het juist leuk om echt gezelschap te bieden en ervoor te zorgen dat een kat zich veilig, ontspannen en fijn voelt terwijl zijn baasje weg is.

Over: Ik ben een dierenliefhebber en een professionele fotograaf. Voor mij zijn huisdieren als engelen met vier poten, en ik doe mijn best om ze alle liefde en zorg te geven die ze verdienen. Ik geniet ervan om veilige wandelingen in parken te maken, van de natuur te genieten en ervoor te zorgen dat ze altijd comfortabel, veilig en gelukkig zijn. Ik hou ervan om met allerlei Fiele Vrienden om te gaan, of ze nu harig, gevederd of met een schild zijn. Ik zorg er altijd voor dat ik ze liefde en aandacht geef en houd de eigenaren op de hoogte met foto’s en video’s, zodat ze gerust kunnen zijn, wetende dat hun geliefde metgezellen in goede handen zijn. Ik ben nieuw in de omgeving en ben de taal aan het leren, hoewel ik een beetje Engels spreek. Ik heb nooit problemen gehad met communiceren, aangezien ik in staat ben om met mijn telefoon nauwkeurig te begrijpen, te vertalen en te antwoorden in elke taal, zodat de eigenaren altijd op de hoogte zijn en zich verbonden voelen met hun Fiele Vrienden. De zorg voor huisdieren past perfect in mijn dagelijkse en wekelijkse routine, omdat het voor mij een taak is vol liefde en toewijding. Elke dag zorg ik ervoor dat ik veilige wandelingen in de parken maak, geniet van de natuur en ervoor zorg dat de huisdieren altijd comfortabel, veilig en gelukkig zijn. Ik ga ook met ze om, of het nu spelen, aaien of ze persoonlijke aandacht geven is. Daarnaast houd ik de eigenaren op de hoogte met foto’s en video’s, zodat ze gerust kunnen zijn en op de hoogte blijven van alles wat er gebeurt terwijl ik voor hun Fiele Vrienden zorg. Omdat mijn werk iets is dat ik diep van binnen geniet, integreer ik het op een natuurlijke manier in mijn routine, waardoor de zorg voor huisdieren een essentieel onderdeel van mijn dagelijks leven is. Ik zorg voor de huisdieren met veel liefde en toewijding, en zorg ervoor dat ze altijd comfortabel, veilig en gelukkig zijn. Ik bied veilige wandelingen, spelletjes, genegenheid en persoonlijke aandacht, terwijl ik de eigenaren op de hoogte houd met foto’s en video’s. Ik richt me op het volgen van hun gebruikelijke routine, zodat ze zich rustig en in een vertrouwde omgeving voelen, of het nu thuis is of ergens anders waar ze zich op hun gemak voelen.
Over: Hi! I’m Vanessa, and thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! Cats have always had a special place in my heart. I love their unique personalities and the trust they build when they feel safe and comfortable with someone. Originally from Brazil, I’ve been living in the Netherlands for the past six years. I now live in Apeldoorn after spending three years in Amsterdam. I’ve had the pleasure of caring for many wonderful cats, and I understand that each one has their own way of communicating, their own preferences, and their own pace when it comes to building trust. My priority is to provide personalized care while respecting their boundaries and helping them feel safe and relaxed in their own environment. I adapt my approach to what makes each cat most comfortable, whether that means playtime, gentle attention, quiet companionship, or giving them the space they need. I also make sure their familiar routine is maintained as much as possible while you are away. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter maintenance, medication if needed, and providing companionship in a way that suits their personality. My goal is to build a trusting relationship and make their time without you as calm and positive as possible. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your beloved pet and your home. That’s why I treat every animal and every home with kindness, respect, and responsibility. I’m also happy to send photos and updates, so you can relax knowing your cat is safe and well cared for. A few details about my services: • I offer cat sitting visits locally around Apeldoorn, where I can easily travel by bike. • For locations outside Apeldoorn, I offer house sitting wherever the location is reasonably accessible by public transport. • For bookings that require travel by public transport, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered by the pet owner. I’m always happy to discuss the expected travel costs with you in advance. • I always like to arrange a short meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, meet your cat, and make sure we are a great match. For meet-ups outside my local area, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered. A quick note about Rover’s pricing: Sometimes the app applies additional charges for extra pets. I’m always happy to discuss these costs and find a solution that feels fair for everyone. If you think we might be a good match, I’d love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your cat! Warm regards, Vanessa
Over: Your cat will stay in a calm and quiet environment with very little noise. We have a small bunny in one of the rooms, so we naturally keep the house peaceful—no loud music or anything that could cause stress. This makes it the perfect place for cats to feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable.

“Jessica Samantha is een superoppas! Bij de eerste ontmoeting kon ons hondje Dora ook kennismaken met de hinden van Jessica Samantha. Dat ging meteen goed. Toen wij Dora op de oppasdag bij Jessica Samantha thuis brachten was ze heel relaxed. In de loop van de dag werden wij op de hoogte gehouden van Dora’s reilen en zeilen dmv foto’s en filmpjes. Geweldig! Een adresje om zeker naar terug te komen.”
“Romy (5-jarige Roemeense rescue hond) voor de eerste keer bij de dagopvang van Nadja gebracht. Voor alle betrokkenen (en dus ook Romy) een spannende gebeurtenis. Zij (Romy) heeft dat goed en rustig gedaan. Hier zullen we ons hondje wel vaker gaan brengen.”
Over: He cuidado varios perros desde que estoy aquí en Madrid, me caracteriza la responsabilidad y paciencia hacia el cuidado de ellos, me apasiona muchísimo los perros y todo lo que ello conlleva. De momento trabajo y estudio en casa, por lo que tengo disponibilidad completa para poder ocuparme de tu peludito, dar paseos juntos y jugar en casa. En mi caso, prefiero cuidar de las mascotas en mi casa ya que también trabajo aquí, cuanto con mucho espacio para que caminen y jueguen.
Over: I am obsessed with dogs particularly rescues. I rescued my tripaw Odin 14 years ago from a river in Spain. I travelled the world with him (25+ countries) and trained him to be the best companion. He sadly passed in November 2025. I rescued Nuri two years ago and she is the happiest bundle of joy. She is just full of love and happiness. We look forward to welcome your lovely furr babies into our amazing home. I am self employed with my own companies. I work from home and I train every day but i own my schedule. The dogs are always with me, or if they are left at home it's only for a few hours where they can relax on the ultra comfy sofas. I have a very big fenced garden and huge comfy sofas. I live out of the city but easily accessible. I have two dogs in the house. One senior and one young.
“Vatsala was amazing!!! My wedding was this past Saturday and we needed someone to watch our pups all day during the festivities. We couldn’t have chosen anyone better for such an important day. Vatsala and her fiance were the sweetest people on Rover, on time, easy to work with, and most importantly, the fur babes loved them! Couldn’t recommend higher.”

Over: I've taken care of cats for 11 years, and can care for senior/sick cats too! Having grown up with two cats at home, I am used to feeding, grooming, toilet-training, medication-giving, and other tasks catering cats from babies to elderlies. I have two cats back in my hometown, but in my current place of residence (where your cats will be hosted if you request boarding), there are no pets. So feel free to request boarding even if your pet is shy! I'm currently between jobs, so I am home almost fulltime other than a few hours out a day. Therefore I can pay full attention and love for your cats if necessary. If your pets need vitamins or medications, I am comfortable and experienced with mixing it into their food or feeding them directly. I can tend to all of their needs, so feel free to detail your cat's personalities and preferences!
Over: I have a close relationship with my dog back home and now looking forward to take care or spend my time with some pets away from home. Love to take them for walks and overnight care. It is important for me to know there routines and behaviour for the best care I can give. I have a Labrador that is 8 years’ old he is hyperactive and I have been able to understand dog behaviours and needs to keep them happy. I have walked pets earlier too of different age and sizes. I'm mostly available on the weekends and evenings with flexible timings. Timings can be spoken based on the need and some days, I can also make it in weekdays and work while taking care of your pet. I have an decent sized apartment and wouldn't mind the pet going around the house and use my furniture's to chill if they are used to doing that. I will do my best to make them feel like home when I have them over at mine.
“Wij zijn erg blij dat onze Pecas kon bij Monique blijven. Zij is lief, open en met een natuurlijke gave om met dieren om te gaan. Pecas heeft het erg naar zijn zin gehad. Dankjewel Monique!!!”

Over: I’ve had a big dog for 7 years and have been around many different types of dogs and taken care of them for friends and family. I am currently a student at VU university so I have a very flexible schedule and can be available in the mornings, afternoons and evenings! I have a home set up for a dog as I have a dog myself. I have a lot of experience in walking dogs and when I check in on dogs I know how to play with them and make sure they are cared for.

Over: Mijn liefde voor dieren is er al zo lang ik me kan herinneren. Ik ben opgegroeid met de goedzak Lester, een zwarte labrador en later kwam daar een vrolijke adoptiehond, Puca, uit Spanje bij. Zelf heb ik nu geen hond, maar ik vind het heerlijk om voor die van een ander te zorgen. Zelfs op mijn werk weten collega’s inmiddels: moet er een hond ergens heen, dan bel je mij. In mijn HR-profiel heb ik dat stiekem ook een beetje als ‘specialisatie’ benoemd. Ik verzorg dieren met veel liefde, geduld en aandacht. Elk beestje is uniek en ik pas me daar met plezier en liefde op aan. De gezelligheid die dieren met zich meebrengen, is voor mij echt goud waard. Met mijn ex-partner had ik een vakantiehuisje in Denia, Spanje. Elke keer als ik daar was, maakte ik een ritje naar het plaatselijke asiel om een hond uit te laten en wat extra liefde te geven, dat werd al snel een vast ritueeltje. Thuis heb ik geen hond, maar wel een ontzettend lieve Noorse Boskat van 10, Marley. Door privéomstandigheden woont ze nu tijdelijk bij mijn moeder, maar ik zoek haar nog vaak op. Ze komt me altijd vrolijk begroeten als ik binnenkom, zit op commando en apporteert haarelastiekjes. Ze geeft me een beetje het gevoel dat ik tóch een hondje heb, op haar eigen unieke manier. Op social media zie ik vaak filmpjes van mensen die dieren (in nood) tegenkomen en redden. Hoe triest sommige verhalen ook zijn, diep vanbinnen hoop ik stiekem dat ik ooit zelf in zo’n situatie kom, zodat ik kan helpen. Mocht ik ooit de loterij winnen (of het gewoon zelf bij elkaar weet te sparen), dan wil ik op een (stads)boerderij wonen en daar dieren opvangen die een veilige plek nodig hebben. Op maandag en woensdag ben ik de hele dag beschikbaar om huisdieren te verzorgen, zowel bij mij thuis als bij het baasje. Ook in het weekend maak ik hier graag tijd voor, met veel aandacht voor veiligheid en vertrouwen. Ik zorg altijd met veel aandacht en geduld voor huisdieren, of dat nu bij mij thuis is of bij het baasje. Een vertrouwde en veilige omgeving staat voorop: ik neem de tijd om het dier rustig te laten wennen en houd goed rekening met hun gewoontes, voeding en beweging. Ook volg ik nauwkeurig de instructies van het baasje op, zodat het dier zich zo comfortabel mogelijk voelt.

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: I have extensive pet care experience spanning eight years, starting in 2016. Beyond routine care, I've regularly tended to dogs in shelters and have experience fostering them. With a personal pack of four dogs, ranging from small to medium breeds, I'm well-versed in managing various canine personalities and needs. Additionally, I specialize in training both puppies and seniors, ensuring they receive tailored care and attention suited to their age and development stage. As I'm currently just finished my Master Degree and working hybrid! I have ample flexibility in my schedule to prioritize pet care. I can seamlessly integrate it into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that your furry friend receives the attention and care they deserve. I'm available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, providing consistent and reliable care tailored to your pet's needs. In my apartment, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a nurturing environment for pets. Whether in my home or a pet owner's, I ensure a secure space where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Dogs are welcome to stay in my bed if that's their preference, and I'm diligent about maintaining a pet-friendly environment. Near my home, there's a park where pets can enjoy outdoor activities and socialization. I take precautions to safeguard pets from any potential hazards and provide a loving atmosphere where they can thrive.
Over: I began working with animals in 2016 through Paws and Claws, an independent daycare and dog walking service in the UK. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, and caring for dogs throughout the morning and afternoon. I was also responsible for pick-up and drop-off, which involved being trusted with access to clients’ homes. Alongside this, I carried out house calls to help socialise dogs or check in on those who didn’t require a full day of on-site daycare. At the daycare facility, I comfortably handled groups of up to ten dogs of varying breeds, sizes, and temperaments on walks in the local woodlands. As demand grew, I expanded my services to include house and pet sitting across several nearby villages and towns. Over the years, I have cared for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, and I am also happy to tend to gardens or house plants when needed. After moving to Utrecht for my studies, I began offering my own dog walking and pet sitting services to pet owners that I met in the city or at surrounding walking spots. During my time in Utrecht, I also worked for a local hondenuitlaat service, which gave me experience with a lot of common (and some less common) Dutch breeds. A few years later, I am now living in Amsterdam, working full-time with dogs at a fantastic farm facility outside of the city, and finishing up my Master's degree. Do I sound like the right fit for you and your dog? Drop me a message and we can arrange an initial meeting to get to know each other better! (Multiple positive references available upon request). I work a few days a week at a dog daycare organisation on a rural farmland property outside of Amsterdam. On my working days, if I am looking after a dog, I like to bring them with me so that they can socialise with the pack. All transport is done using a fully converted, dog-friendly wagon with additional AC (and lots of cookies!). If a dog needs to be left alone or doesn't get along with other dogs, this can also be easily accommodated during the day in a safe, penned-off area at the facility. On my days off, I am entirely flexible and work from home while finishing my Master's thesis, making my routine highly compatible with dedicated pet care. I live with my girlfriend in a large, multi-room apartment in the Rivierenbuurt neighbourhood of Amsterdam. The location is convenient for dogs and humans alike, being just a short walk from several metro stations and with easy drop-off outside via street access. We are lucky to be located just a stone's throw away from Beatrixpark and Martin Luther Kingpark, with the Amstel and the Amsterdamse Bos close by, providing some wonderful green spaces right on our doorstep for daily walks. Our apartment has two balconies (one of which gets the sun all day long ☀️☀️☀️) and plenty of comfy space inside for dogs to relax. All my dog guests get an entire room to themselves to ensure they have their own quiet and safe space to rest—unless, of course, they prefer to cuddle up with us on the sofa or in bed... Because of my professional background managing packs, safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities, whether looking after a pet in my home or yours.
Over: Hi! I’m Vanessa, and thank you for taking the time to visit my profile! Taking care of animals is one of the most rewarding parts of my life, and I’d love to care for your furry family member. Originally from Brazil, I’ve been living in the Netherlands for the past six years. I now live in Apeldoorn after spending three years in Amsterdam. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for puppies, senior pets, rescue dogs, reactive dogs, and many wonderful cats, each with their own unique personality and needs. I truly enjoy getting to know every pet as an individual and helping them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision. That’s why I treat every pet and every home with kindness, respect, and responsibility, just as I would hope someone would treat mine. My priority is to give your pet the love and attention they deserve while giving you complete peace of mind. I’m also happy to send regular updates and photos, so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your furry friend is happy and doing well. Nothing makes me happier than knowing that you can return home to a happy pet and a well-cared-for home. A few details about my services: • I happily provide house sitting throughout the Netherlands wherever the location is reasonably accessible by public transport. Having lived in both Amsterdam and Apeldoorn, I’m comfortable traveling to care for pets in different parts of the country. For bookings that require travel by public transport, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered by the pet owner. I’m always happy to discuss the expected travel costs with you in advance so everything is clear before confirming the booking. • Dog walking and drop-in visits are available locally around Apeldoorn, where I can easily travel by bike. • I always like to arrange a short meet-and-greet beforehand so we can get to know each other, meet your pet, and make sure we are a great match. For meet-ups outside my local area, I kindly ask that travel expenses are covered. A quick note about Rover’s pricing: Rover may automatically add significant extra charges for additional pets. I don’t always agree with how these fees are calculated, so please don’t be discouraged by the total price shown in the app. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s needs and find a fair price that works well for everyone. If you think we might be a good match, I’d love to hear from you and answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Warm regards, Vanessa Pet care is my main focus, and I’ve built my schedule around providing attentive and reliable care for pets. Aside from my Dutch classes, my time is dedicated to ensuring every pet I care for gets the love and attention they need. This flexibility allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine and ensure their happiness while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. In your home, I ensure the environment is kept clean, secure, and comfortable for your pet, respecting their routine and any specific instructions you provide. I keep a close eye on their behavior and well-being, providing plenty of affection, playtime, and care to make them feel safe and loved. I also communicate regularly with updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether it’s maintaining a calm, familiar atmosphere or adapting to a pet’s unique needs, I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would for my own.

“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.”
“Hele fijne oppas voor onze hond Mila. Laura houdt goed contact met je. Neemt de tijd voor meerdere wandelingen op een dag. Laura stemt alles keurig met je af. Superblij met deze oppasmogelijkheid en Mila ook!”
Over: I have 2 dogs of my own and years of hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. Your dog will be coming into a calm, dog-savvy home run by people who genuinely love this - not somewhere treating it as a side hustle. I offer boarding at my place, house sitting at yours, and dog walks in and around Hilversum and the Gooi. I keep numbers small on purpose so that your dog gets real attention, a proper routine, and someone who actually notices if something feels off. I use an intake form with every booking so I know your dog's routine, quirks, health needs, and what they're like with other dogs before anything is confirmed. No surprises for either of us. I am additionally comfortable with senior dogs who need calm over chaos and dogs with specific routines or sensitivities. I ask for: honest answers on the intake form and a quick meet-and-greet before boarding or sitting bookings. Pet care isn't something I fit around a busy schedule, it is the priority when I have a booking. I work from home, which means dogs in my care aren't left alone for long stretches during the day. Walks, feeding, rest, and outdoor time follow your dog's natural routine as closely as possible, not mine. I keep bookings small so I'm never stretched across too many dogs at once. My home is calm, dog-proofed, and already shared with 2 dogs of my own, so incoming dogs arrive into a settled environment. Before any boarding or sitting booking I use a detailed intake form covering health, behavior, feeding, and emergency contacts, plus a meet-and-greet to make sure it's a good fit. I use a signed agreement with every client. If something feels off with a dog during a stay such as appetite, energy, behavior, I notice and I communicate that. Owners hear from me with updates; they don't have to chase me for them.
“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!”
“Carolina was great! She did a great job taking care of our Kylo while we were on a long vacation. She was always very responsive and flexible too. Carolina is very kind and sweet with pets.”
Over: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My family had three dogs over the years, and I looked after each one from puppy all the way to senior age, including all the extra care and patience that comes with an older dog. Most recently, I took care of a dog that needed daily medicine and treatment for a ripped paw pad, so I'm comfortable with health routines too, not just walks. I've also worked as a dog walker and sitter, and whether it's your dog or my own, I treat them all the same way: like family. As a freelancer, I mostly work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility during the day. That means I can fit in walks, feedings, or check-ins at times that actually work for your schedule, not just early mornings or evenings. It also means I'm not rushing between appointments, so your dog or cat gets my full attention while I'm there. When pets stay with me, they have plenty of room to settle in. My apartment has a big, spacious living room and kitchen area, and I usually set up a cozy corner just for them so they always have a safe spot to retreat to, while still being free to roam and explore the rest of the apartment. I let them explore at their own pace and approach me when they're ready, rather than the other way around. I might try to make contact with a treat here and there, but I never force it if they're not comfortable yet. For walks, I'm lucky to live close to three parks, so there's always a good spot nearby to stretch their legs.
“Pepa heeft het heel fijn gehad! Marlies en haar dochter hebben veel ervaring met honden en hebben echt de tijd genomen om met haar te spelen en te wandelen. Ze kwam super relaxt terug! Ik raad Marlies zeker aan ☺️??”
“This was the first time we use the services and I must say we are 100% satisfied. We left our babies and I felt like the most nervous mother who just left her children for the first time at pre school. I was nervous and emotional. Vatsala was amazing. We got updates and photos. Vatsala has been patient and answered all our questions. She has helped us feel comfortable knowing our babies are well cared for. If you are looking for a sitter Vatsala is the best you could ever get”
“Marcela was great! Woody seems to have loved staying with them. Usually he's very picky with food but seems to have eaten well during his stay, which is a great sign. Communication was great, and I got a lot of happy photos.”
“Lada was great, she took care of my dog for nearly a week and did a fab job, I was showered with constant updates and returned to my dog being absolutely in love with her -- which speaks to the level of her dedication and love for dogs.”
“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've had dogs my entire life and have experience caring for both energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and support. We have our own much-loved dog, Oskar, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. We are a warm, affectionate family and will treat your dog like one of our own, providing plenty of love, attention, playtime and cuddles in a safe, caring home. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I work from home three days a week, and on the other two days my partner, Will, works from home, so there is always someone at home to provide company, care and attention. We have a 10-year-old English Springer Spaniel, Oskar, who is a much-loved member of our family. He enjoys two walks a day, along with additional toilet breaks whenever needed, so any dogs staying with us will be part of our regular routine. We understand the importance of exercise, companionship and maintaining a dog's usual schedule, and we'll ensure your pet feels safe, happy and well cared for throughout their stay. We follow each dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medication and any specific care instructions. Our home is clean, pet-friendly and ideal for dogs who enjoy companionship and affection. We have a gentle 10-year-old English Springer Spaniel, Oskar, who is very used to other dogs. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, as either I or my partner works from home each day. I will always keep owners updated with messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is safe, settled and having a wonderful time.
“Harvey did a great job taking care of our dog during our trip. He was in contact daily and sent loads of cute pictures. On top of it all our home was spotless when we returned. Thank you Harvey!”
“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. 🙏🏻”
“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!”
Over: I’ve had dogs since I was young and have years of hands-on experience caring for them. I currently have a 30 kg Goldendoodle, Willow, whom I’ve spent the past two years intensively training as my service dog. Through this, I’ve gained lots of experience with obedience, consistency, positive reinforcement, routines, and understanding dog behavior. I’m also very comfortable with larger, energetic dogs and providing plenty of exercise, structure, and, of course, cuddles! 🐾 I work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule and am around throughout most of the day. Dogs in my care get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles. I normally take Willow on three longer walks and two shorter walks each day, so your dog can easily join our routine. I’m also happy to adjust my schedule to your dog’s usual walking, feeding, and sleeping routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible. 🐾 Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure any dog staying with us feels comfortable around her. Since I work from home, dogs are rarely left alone and get plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day. Dogs are treated like part of the family in our home, they’re welcome on the furniture (clean paws permitting!) and can sleep in my bedroom. I follow each owner’s routines and rules closely and will always take the time to help your dog feel safe, relaxed, and at home. And obviously will send pictures throughout the day of your pup; as a dog owner, that’s what I’d want as well!
“Agata and Sebastian took wonderful care of Fuzzy, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They kept us updated regularly with lovely messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear from the updates that Fuzzy was comfortable, happy, and was getting lots of love and affection. They were very attentive to his needs, especially when he was not eating normally at first, and even went the extra mile to help him feel comfortable. We really appreciated how caring, responsible, and thoughtful they were throughout. Fuzzy came back relaxed and happy, which says everything. We would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind and reliable sitters.”
