Hondenopvang Scherpenzeel

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.

“Het was de eerste keer voor mijn pup om bij een vreemde te logeren .. het was een mooie leerzame middag bedankt daarvoor tot de volgende 🐾 groetjes Laki 🐾”

“Super positive experience. She sent us a video of our dog during the weekend. Extra special because we adopted our dog in Spain and trained her in Spanish”

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.

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.

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!

“Laura en Sebastián zijn hele lieve oppassers. Poppie voelde zich heel erg thuis. Ik zag ook de genegenheid van beide naar Poppie toe. Zou Poppie zo weer brengen.”

“Onze Pip is als een tevreden hond teruggekomen, was lekker moe en volgens Nikki heeft hij lekker in de bossen gespeeld. Dus heerlijk! Bedankt Nikki!”

Over: Hello, dear pet parents! 🐾 My name is Elena, and I’ve always been passionate about animals and the unique personalities that make each one so special. A few years ago, I became the happy cat parent of Arya, and caring for her has been an incredibly meaningful and rewarding experience. Through our time together, I’ve learned how important it is to understand an animal’s individual needs, routines, and preferences. Whether it’s playtime, quiet companionship, long walks, or simply providing comfort and attention, I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, happy, and loved. My experience with animals has helped me develop a caring, patient, and attentive approach to pet care. I understand that every cat and dog has their own character, energy level, and way of communicating, and I always take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet enjoys active adventures, cozy cuddles, or a calm and familiar routine, I will do my best to provide the care, attention, and affection they need while you’re away. I would be delighted to offer my pet-sitting services across the Amersfoort area and ensure that your beloved companion receives the same level of care and respect that I would give my own pet. 💛 I currently work a part-time morning job, which gives me good flexibility in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care, including walks, visits, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I can also adjust my schedule in advance to fit your pet’s routine when needed. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, whether I’m caring for them in their own home or during visits. In a pet owner’s home, I follow all instructions closely to keep the pet’s environment familiar and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, get the right amount of exercise and attention, and that their usual routines are maintained. I also keep the home tidy and secure, and I’m very mindful of keeping doors, windows, and any hazards properly checked. I take time to understand each pet’s personality and boundaries, so I can interact with them in a calm, respectful way that helps build trust. I always make sure pets feel safe, never rushed, and comfortable at their own pace. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care so pets feel relaxed and well looked after while their owners are away.

“She and her husband are great! Our Lela had three times a day walks. They sent us a photos/videos every day! Most important, Lela came home happy and in good shape. For years she was always in hotels for dogs and when she was back home after hotel she was depressed. But this time she was soooooo happy. Thanks Marcela ❤️❤️❤️❤️”

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. 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 different pets for families and friends, covering various breeds and ages. 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.

“Vatsala and Ayan are perfect sitters for our dogs. It was our first time using sitters and they were very responsive to our questions, very loving to our dogs and punctual. We hope to see them again soon!”

“Hugo moet altijd even wennen aan nieuwe mensen en omgeving maar het was super goed gegaan, thanks!”

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.

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.

“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.”

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.

“I highly recommend Maria! She took excellent care of my dog and provided regular updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well looked after, and clearly received lots of attention and care. She was reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely love animals. I would definitely use her services again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dog! 🐾❤️”

Over: I grew up around all kinds of animals (cats, dogs, bunnies and duckies) so l love every type of furry friend! Since I moved away from Greece, I miss every day my family dog but I find joy in taking care my friend's and colleague's pets while they are away and I love every second of it. I work hybrid, so my schedule is quite flexible with most days working remotely at home. Always happy to have a furry company to spend the day together and going for walks during my lunch break. I don't own other pets so my attention will be focused on treating your pet as part of the family. There is plenty of space for a bed, toys and all things to make the transition as smooth as possible.
