Hondenopvang Renswoude

“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!”

Over: I have been taking care of all kinds of pets for 7 years. My family, friends and neighbors trust me for the best treatment and for their peace of mind. I currently work part-time and have plenty of time for pet care. I am available almost all week and you can contact me the same day. I live in a bungalow with a garden in a campsite with lots of green space so your pet can enjoy the outdoors and have a good time.

“Alan en Madeleine zijn lief voor Archi en proberen hem zo'n goed mogelijke tijd te geven.”

“Onze Jack Russell Jip heeft het geweldig naar haar zin gehad. Laura en haar vriend hebben haar veel aandacht gegeven en spelletjes gedaan, maar wel rekening gehouden met de beperkingen van een 14-jaar oude dame. Laura hield ons goed op de hoogte via Whatsapp met leuke foto's. We gaan Jip zeker nog eens langsbrengen -:)”

Over: Ook in Nederlands beschikbaar! I had my adopted Lab Archibald for 2,5 years untill he very sadly passed away. Although i loved him very much he wasn't without his pre-existing issues with agression against other dogs. with training and consistent conditioning I was able to greatly improve it. Im currently in a bit of limbo regarding my career so can't commit to having a dog fulltime. but would love to take care of yours! We had dogs at home growing up as well so plenty of experience with dogs of all sizes. i have an athletic 96Kg build so can handle dogs of pretty much any size. im currently unemployed so have plenty of time to either come to you and walk your dog or can take care of your dog here. Im 3 minutes away from kronenburger park which is an ideal spot for walkies. I live in a dog-friendly apartment building with acces to a lift, there are no other pets in the house. am flexible to accomodate most requests.

Over: I am friendly, kind and very good with animals. I have looked after stray animals for all of my life, and I have looked after 2 beautiful cats for more than 7 years. I have been providing animal care on these sorts of platforms since 2025. I am very experienced with difficult and not-so-friendly cats, also with administrating oral medication. I don’t mind when it comes to breed, size, and/or age, all animals are welcome with me. I have a followed a grooming course where I learned how to wash, dry, and style many dog breeds and cats. I will make sure to play with them, perform tricks, and go on potty breaks as often as needed. Feel free to contact me for any bookings and questions! I’m currently working part time 2 days a week in the afternoon/evening, and by the time I’m gone my boyfriend comes home pretty soon therefore there is almost always someone in the house. I kindly ask my clients to bring over any food, toys, beds etc. that the pet needs so that we can create a familiar environment for them and make them feel as safe and happy as possible. Of course, we make sure to keep around some treats in the house for our visitors ;) When I am at a client’s house, I make sure to respect the environment that I am in and make sure to keep/leave it clean. Additionally, I like taking care of plants in my house so if you have any in yours that needs to be watered, I can take care of that too!

“Ilaria took care of our dog for a whole day. She walked and played with her a lot and sent us many pictures and videos. She also brought her to the forest. She was reachable and kept us updated throughout the day. We would recommend her!”

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.

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.

“Kon op voorhand een keer met Onyx langskomen om te kijken. Onyx voelde zich direct op zijn gemak en Guusje kon goed met hem overweg. Alles is volgens afspraak verlopen.”

“Daphne took really good care of Bandit. He was completely happy and relaxed when I picked him up. He enjoyed the walks and all the attention. Thank you”

Rosalie V.

Over: I’ve been taking care of dogs for over 8 years and absolutely love being around animals. I’m a caring, very patient and responsible person who makes sure every pet feels safe comfortable and loved. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime and giving your pet plenty of attention. I do understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and i will always treat them with the same care i would give my own pet. I also do speak dutch!! I currently have a part-time job, but I have a flexible schedule and can fit pet care around my work. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going for walks and making sure they get the attention and care they need. I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I have a secure, enclosed garden where pets can safely spend time outside. I also have a friendly dog of my own, Beertje, who is 8 years old. I always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable and welcome in my home. I follow the owner’s instructions and take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine and needs.

“Roxana ha cuidado de nuestro perro genial. Nos ha enviado fotos, vídeos y como estaba diariamente y varias veces. Estamos muy contentos y Chasper también con ella. La experiencia ha sido muy buena. Repetiremos seguro. Súper recomendable cuidadora.”

“So grateful to these two for how well they took care of my fur child. They’re caring, prompt with communication and just genuinely lovely people! I’d absolutely take them up to look after Lumos again.”

Over: I have taken care of many cats and dogs of friends, and have my own dog and 2 cats. They are very friendly and we live 2 minutes from an off leash forest! I am working part-time from home, part-time from the office in Wageningen. I am mostly home in the mornings and evenings on office days; when I work from home I may run an errand or go for a run, but should be mostly home to hang out with the animals! I am a calm person with a PhD in animal welfare and behaviour. Therefore, I know very well how to read animals, to ensure they have the best experience with me as pet sitter!

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 are so happy we found Tatiana on this website! The communication was open and friendly. The stay went well and smoothly. We had a really good break with zero worries. And the dog is calm and happy afterward.”

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.

Over: Hello! My name is Jiayi, and I would be delighted to look after your pet. My motivation for becoming a pet sitter comes from my love for animals and the joy I get from spending time with them. Pet sitting is a wonderful opportunity for me to spend my free time doing something I truly enjoy while also earning some extra income. I charge very low because I’m still new in pet sitting, but with all my heart, I will not break your trust ❤️ I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, and I am committed to providing a safe, loving, and welcoming environment. I have experience caring for pets belonging to clients and also friends. Through these experiences, I have learned how important it is to be patient, and attentive to each animal’s individual needs. I take pride in being a caring and trustworthy person, and I treat pets with the same kindness that I would give my own. For the health and safety of all pets, I only accept vaccinated animals into my home. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work from home most days, which allows me to spend plenty of time caring for pets. On weekends, I have a flexible schedule and am available all day to give pets extra attention and care. Your pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax and feel at home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special care requirements to ensure they receive personalized attention. As I work from home most days, your pet will have regular supervision and companionship throughout the day. I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep fresh water available at all times, and make sure litter boxes are kept clean. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
