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.

“Elena took care for my cat Alba very well. She sent me a lot of pictures and messages regarding Alba and the house, which was much appreciated. I would definitely recommend Elena - she is a very nice and reliable sitter, who even cleaned the house where needed. Many thanks - hope to see you back! 🐱”

“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’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

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

Over: I have taken care of dogs since always but my understanding started when I adopted my dog. He was a reactive dog (due to his street / trauma situation) and I learnt how to take care of that. Besides him, we (my family and I) adopted another 2 little fluffly girls. And we always had our +10 yo dog. Seniors dogs need a lot of love and care. Currently an Au Pair in Amsterdam and living long term. I am from Argentina so my pets are far away from me. This will not only be beneficial for the pet but me too. I miss the warmth of a beautiful fluffly pet. Going for a walk, playing throwing balls and the amount of saliva they can leave you. Depends on the owner’s house and the dogs needs. Routines for pets are like for babies, you need to understand each one to realise what is best for them.

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

Over: I come from a family of animal lovers, and we have always kept both dogs and cats. Currently, back in my hometown, our home is happily shared with two Teddy dogs, one Border Collie, and seven cats—three of which I personally rescued as strays. Growing up surrounded by pets has given me a deep understanding of their behaviors and needs. My practical experience includes assisting in the delivery of two litters of puppies and one litter of kittens, which taught me to handle delicate situations with calmness and care. I also regularly participate in small animal rescue volunteering, further developing my skills in nurturing and rehabilitating animals in need. I am patient, attentive, and have some basic dog training experience. Currently, I am not employed elsewhere, so I have abundant free time to dedicate fully to caring for pets. I am flexible and can adapt to various schedules and routines. My house have a dog-friendly park right in front, a riverside walking path behind my home, and a big yard at home for pets to run around freely. Dogs can roam between the house and the yard—it’s a cozy, happy space for them! Im a full time pet sitter now. So I can provide dogs with extended companionship and offer two long walks daily(at least 45 minutes), once in the morning and once in the evening. Everyday between 2-3pm, I’ll let doggy play freely in our 90 square meter yard. Any dog can play freely in the house and garden. I will also take care of them according to their habits at home, such as whether they go on the sofa or sleep in the bed with me. I always keep dog treats and wet food on hand for the dogs to eat in limited quantities for free. I also observe the dogs' ears, skin, teeth, diet, and bowel movements and urination every day to make sure they are health. I can also increase the number of walks if dog has special needs.

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

“Julia did exactly what I asked her to do. She was in and out and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I will definitely be asking her to come back in the future and I highly recommend her.”

“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.

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.

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

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

Over: I've had 2 cats for 3 years and I was growing them up since them being little babies. Because I moved to The Netherlands I had to leave them with my mom, but I am planning to take them here in a near future. I did cat sitting in the past 2 years as well in Amsterdam and every time the owners were highly satisfied. it fits very well, I can provide 1 visit, 2 visits per day and it's possible to stay overnight if that's the case, depending on the week. I always pay attention to what the owner tell me to do for his dear pet. I like to caress them and give them food and spend some extra time with them :)

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

“It was a pleasure working with Nadiia. She made sure our two cats were well taken care of and enjoyed quality time with her, beyond mere feeding & cleaning. They are very shy to strangers but she took a lot of time and effort to make them feel comfortable around her. You could tell they felt less lonely than during our previous trips, they were much friendlier and happier when we returned. Also, Nadiia shared lots of pictures, videos and comments that made us feel much more relaxed knowing our best friends in good hands. Will definitely repeat.”

Over: I've taken care of dogs and cats my whole life as a pet owner and as a caretaker. I have several years of experience pet walking, pet sitting and pet care in Los Angeles, California. I have had several dogs and cats as my own pets throughout my life. At the moment, my husband and I have two dogs and a cat. I am currently working from home with a very flexible schedule. I also own a car and am willing to travel to you! I am available any time and any day. I have a fenced in garden and covered deck with shade. We also have a doggie pool and several comfy dog beds. We live one block away from a dog friendly park with lots of space for running and interacting with other dogs if wanted.

“Very happy with the care and attention Rosanna has given to our dog. Walking sitting and feeding the dogs. All went super well. Very reliable and trustworthy. I can highly recommend her. Chloé and family.”
