Op de kat passen Oostzaan

Over: I've been in contact with animals since I remember myself as a human being, my mom brought home my first cat when I was 6. Growing up my passion for animals became a big part of my life. In 2016, I took a veterinary assistant course and worked in a clinic for a couple of months. I have more experience with cats, since I have six at home, plus the ones at the cat colony that I take care off, but I've also worked in a dog daycare/hotel in 2019. In the last years I volunteered in some animal shelters, the last one was DOA (Amsterdam), where I helped with the cleaning and socializing at the cat department. 🐾 Schedule 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m used to organizing my day around animals’ needs, including early mornings, midday visits, and evening check-ins. I’m flexible and can adapt to your cat’s usual schedule, whether that means set feeding times, multiple visits per day, or longer stays. Weekends and holidays are also possible. 🐾 What to Expect 🐾 I focus on keeping your cat’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. A typical visit includes feeding (wet, dry, or special diets), fresh water, litter box cleaning, and keeping their space clean and comfortable. I always spend quality time with your cat, this can be playtime with toys, grooming, or simply calm companionship, depending on their personality. 🐾 You’ll receive daily updates with photos, videos, and notes, so you always know how your cat is doing 🐾 Your cat’s safety and wellbeing are my top priority. I take the time to understand their habits, personality, and any special needs before starting. I’m experienced with different types of cats, including shy or rescue cats, and I always approach them with patience and respect. If medication or special care is needed, I follow your instructions carefully and reliably. In your home, I make sure everything stays clean, secure, and as familiar as possible for your cat, minimizing stress while you’re away.

Over: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for most of my life, i’ve dealt with young pups to older dogs with dietary restrictions. At the core of my care, comes the animals health and wellness, and ensuring their safety and well-being throughout and to aid in their mental enrichment. At the moment, i recently graduated university and have ample of free time to care for cats, dogs, etc. Depending on the day of the week, my availability changes but always willing to work it out ! I am always respectful and mindful of the owners home and my upmost importance is the care of the animal and that it feels safe and happy and that all it’s needs are met

“Elena was such an amazing cat sitter. She sent us loads of pictures of Bob 😸 which showed he was really comfortable with her. If we need a sitter, we will definitely ask her again!”

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

Over: I had my first dog when I was eleven, I learned to take care of him (walking, cleaning up, giving medicine, etc). I’ve also had 4 other dogs in my life and 2 years ago while I lived in France I obtained experience working by taking care of a big dog for a week. I’m also experienced with cats and ferrets :) I work part time with a flexible schedule, so I have a few free spots in my schedule during the week and weekends. I’m mostly open for walks and visits during the afternoon or nighttime. I’m very careful with belongings and animals, I try to be as gentle as I can with them and be aware of what the need.

Over: Hoi! Ik ben 22 jaar en studeer Software Engineering. Dieren spelen al mijn hele leven een grote rol. Sinds mijn geboorte heb ik katten in huis gehad en momenteel woon ik samen met twee Maine Coons(woon nog thuis bij mijn ouders). Daarnaast heb ik van jongs af aan regelmatig honden uitgelaten in de buurt en heb ik ervaring met het oppassen op honden van familieleden. Ik ben zowel actief als rustig ingesteld: ik ga graag lekker wandelen en spelen met energieke dieren, maar kan ook genieten van een ontspannen moment samen op de bank. Ik begrijp dat ieder dier zijn eigen karakter, tempo en behoeftes heeft, en ik pas me daar flexibel op aan. Betrouwbaarheid en zorg staan bij mij voorop. Ik werk netjes, geef elk huisdier de aandacht die het verdient en zorg ervoor dat baasjes met een gerust hart de deur uit kunnen Momenteel werk ik niet veel. Voor mijn studie zit ik vaak achter mijn laptop huiswerk te maken. 1 of 2 dagen per week heb ik les. Daarnaast sport ik soms en ben ik vaak thuis. Ik hou van dieren dus daarom is dit graag iets wat ik met liefde doe Ik zorg dat alles schoon blijft en let altijd op uw huisdier met veel aandacht. Als hij/zij wilt spelen of naar buiten dan doe ik dat. Als ze liever rust willen dan zal ik ook niet achter ze aangaan voor mijn eigen vermaak. Ik respecteer uw huisdier. Verder met uitlaten zal ik altijd opletten op de omgeving en andere honden zodat uw huisdier altijd in een veilige omgeving zijn ding kan doen

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

Over: I'm a young professional that works from home and have some extra free time and LOVE caring for dogs. So this is the perfect opportunity for me and I have 10+ years of experience caring for dogs on Rover, after graduating from undergrad I took up dog sitting and I have watched homes and pets while family is out of town since then. I am very flexible and reliable and would have a great time with your pet! Why I love dog sitting: I had a dog who I was extremely close with and since his passing I miss a dog's companionship. Because of school and work I'm not able to take care of a dog full time so in the meantime I would love to keep yours company! I’m currently working from home and on my own schedule so I have plenty of time to take your pup on walks and give them lots of attention! How I care for pets varies on the individual pup or cat. Every one of them have their own special needs so I will be sure to be informed and have notes on the stay before booking.

“Sartou took great care of our cat Garlic and sent us daily updates, including pics and videos. Would book again!”

Over: Hi! I’m a full-time pet sitter and a certified canine specialist (dog behaviorist). Caring for dogs isn’t just my job - it’s my profession and my passion. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and I tailor my care to each dog’s individual needs. 🐶 24/7 care and companionship – Pet sitting is my full-time job, so your dog will never be left alone for long periods. They’ll receive constant attention, plenty of affection, and a calm, home-like environment where they can feel safe and relaxed. 🎓 Professional, behavior-based care – As a certified canine specialist, I understand dog body language, behavior, stress signals, and positive, force-free handling techniques. This helps me provide individualized care that builds trust and keeps dogs feeling secure. 🌳 Walks, enrichment & fun – Every dog receives walks and activities suited to their age, personality, and energy level. We enjoy local parks, visits to a nearby fenced dog field (if appropriate), and enrichment games that provide both physical and mental stimulation. 💊 Health & safety – With my medical background, I’m comfortable administering medication and caring for senior dogs or pets with special requirements. 💬 Personalized care & daily updates – Before every booking, I take the time to learn about your dog’s routine, preferences, and any special needs. While you’re away, I’ll send daily photos and videos so you always know your pet is happy, comfortable, and in good hands. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel as safe, relaxed, and loved as they do at home, while giving you complete peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I can take care of your pet any day of the week. However, I may be away on weekends, so it's best to book in advance. I have a personal list of questions because it’s important for me to understand your pet’s daily routine to minimize stress. I offer a spacious apartment with no other animals. Our home is smoke-free and quiet. Your pets will always be under supervision and care.

Over: Hej! I'm Maura. I'm a longtime pet lover and part-time pet caretaker. I've recently relocated to Amsterdam Noord from the USA and looking to grow my care community. I'd be happy to lend a hand to local pet owners with daily walks, drop-ins, overnight care and of course lots of cuddles :) I'm a remote graphic designer which allows for me to work at home. I have full-time availability for pet caretaking which includes morning-evening, weekends and holiday care. I live solo in a studio with a fenced yard which allows for your pup/s to explore outside and for quick potty breaks. Your pup/s will have the space to themselves - I don't own other animals.
