Hondenopvang Putten

Over: I’ve had dogs my whole life, but after my divorce, I no longer have a pet of my own. I really miss having dogs around, which is why I’d love the opportunity to take care of yours. I can take care of your dog on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and weekends. I am caring, reliable, and well-organized. I have had dogs my whole life and really enjoy spending time with them. I live in a three-room apartment on the third floor, with heating and cooling. There is a large yard and a wooded area right next to the building.

Over: Ik heb sinds ik me kan herinneren een liefde voor dieren. Zo ben ik opgevoed en zo zit mijn familie in elkaar. Toen ik op mezelf ging wonen had ik een oudere kat genaamd Vegas geadopteerd, en toen kwam er corona en merkte ik dat zij het fijn vond dat er iemand altijd thuis was. Het werd tijd voor een maatje. Rio kwam bij ons wonen. Helaas werd Vegas heel erg ziek 2 jaar geleden en is ze er niet meer. De nu 6 jarige poes woont ondertussen samen met mij en Tommy, een mix Sharpei / Bosnische straathond van 2 jaar oud. Tommy is gevonden toen die nog geen 2 weken oud was en hij was er erg slecht aan toe. Hij mocht naar Nederland komen en nu is hij mijn leven. Hij is heel erg sociaal en kan goed zijn grenzen aangeven. Vooral met drukke jonge honden die sommige social ques nog niet helemaal doorhebben. Omdat ik 3 dagen in de week thuis werk en in het weekend vrij ben is er altijd ruimte om nog een hond in huis te nemen of om deze uit te laten. Ik ben geordend, streng, maar wel rechtvaardig. Belonen voor goed gedrag is dan ook het handvat met hoe ik werk bij mijn eigen hond. Ik zou het leuk vinden om met verschillende honden te mogen werken. Ook kan ik medicijnen toedienen (wel alleen pillen) en elke wandeling zoek ik weer een leuk rondje uit met nieuwe geurtjes. Ik werk 3 dagen in de week thuis, ik heb 3 kwartier lunchpauze en ik woon in een mooie omgeving waar leuk kan worden gewandeld. Tussendoor is er altijd ruimte om even te plassen buiten voor hoge nood. Na mijn werkdag is er gelijk weer tijd voor een lange wandeling. In het bos, of naar het hondenstrand of door de buurt heen waar ook een leuk park zit. Daarna kan er worden avond gegeten of je word gelijk opgehaald/naar huis gebracht. Ik woon in een appartement. Ik heb een balkon die volledig omheind is en er tussendoor een frisse neus kan worden gehaald. Als ik bij je langs moet komen om de hond uit te laten zal ik van te voren even een leuke route opzoeken die we kunnen wandelen.

“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!”

“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!”

“Ontzettend fijne mensen met een grote liefde voor dieren. Onze Golden Retriever heeft een heerlijk weekend gehad en kwam blij en uitgerust weer bij ons thuis. Er wordt erg zorgvuldig gezorgd en leuke foto's werden gedeeld gedurende de opvang. Ik kan iedereen aanbevelen om hier je viervoeter tijdelijke te laten logeren.”

“Christiane was absolutely amazing for Nusa! She took fantastic care, brought her multiple times to the park, played with her and constantly sent me updates of how she was doing! I really really recommend her 🥰”

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.

“Todo ha ido muy bien, Roxana nos ha mandado fotos y nos ha ido informando cada día. Nico ha estado muy a gusto y bien acompañado. Repetiremos!”

“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.”

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

Over: Ask anyone who knows me – if there's a pet around, I'm glued to it. I'm 27, master's student, responsible, flexible. No pet yet (still dreaming!), but lucky to care for yours. 🐶 My Dog experience I've taken care of a baby Shiba multiple times, which taught me how much patience and joy puppies bring. In Wageningen, I've done some daycare, boarding (a Teckel for one night, a Labrador for six days), and many walks. For boarding at my place, I prefer house-trained dogs because I live in student accommodation. On walks, I'll need a sturdy leash and snacks if your dog isn't friendly with others, I'll be careful to avoid other dogs too. 🐱 My Cat experience Living with a roommate's two cats for a whole year changed me. I went from not knowing much about cats to truly loving their company every day. I also cared for a friend's three cats during her vacation (feeding, medicine, and cleaning). In Wageningen, I've done multiple home visits. For boarding at my place, your cat can stay in my room or explore the corridor. 💕 My style I give cuddles but also space. I read animal body language carefully and never force interaction. Safety always comes first. I can give medicine if you provide clear instructions (paper or PDF for anything complex). 🏠 House sitting & doggy day care I live in student housing with roommates, but I'm the only one who will care for your pet. My typical day: morning feed, then a long walk plus ball play, then nap. Some dogs need three walks (afternoon and before bed). For cats: litter, grooming, play, and evening feed. Evenings are for movies, pets are very welcome on my bed, even big dogs, for lap time and cuddles. 📸 Updates I never leave pets alone for long periods. I'll send regular photos so you can relax. Since I can't have my own pet yet, I truly look forward to caring for yours. Walks, boarding, sitting, vacation care – whatever works for you. Walks & cat home visits: I'm available before and after classes, and often can work from home too. My schedule is adaptable, and I can often accommodate last-minute requests. My home & roommates I live on a student floor, and my roommates have given me permission to bring a pet. It's completely allowed and not a disturbance. The dog or cat will stay in my room. When I go to the kitchen, they might see my roommates (who usually enjoy it) but I'm the only one taking care of them! :) Preferences I prefer dogs that are house-trained because I live in a building. For cats, they are welcome to stay in my room or explore the corridor if they are comfortable doing so. Dog walks – what I need from you Please provide a sturdy leash and snacks in case your dog is not comfortable around other dogs. In that situation, I always change streets or take an alternate route when I see another dog approaching. Updates In all cases, I will send you regular photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and well cared for.

“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.”

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.

“We left Watson with Julia for the first time, and we're a bit anxious on how he will adjust. But Julia made his stay and our entire experience seamless and very comfortable. She took very good care of him, attended to his needs as he was on medication. I would really recommend her for your fur babies.”

Sakshi G.

“We had a wonderful experience with Begoña. She took great care of our rescue dog, who has some allergies and requires a little extra attention. Communication was very smooth from start to finish—she kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dog looked happy and relaxed in every update, and it’s clear he had a great time with her. We’re so grateful for the care and love she provided. Highly recommended!”

“Layla returned home happy as ever after her stay at Alessandra. I got regular photos and updates of Layla chilling in various ways which really helped putting me at ease.”
