Hondenopvang Soest

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.

“We are extremely happy to find such a trustworthy and kind couple to take care of Jole when we are out of the city… it felt like he got his small holiday too! From the small updates to a genuine and extremely approachable communication, I rarely felt that Jole will be well taken care of from the early start. :) Not to mention Laura even learned a foreign words so she could better communicate with Jole! <3 I think Jole indeed showed how pleasant he felt after I came to him up, and the fall asleep before we left the apartment! :) Thank you guys, I am sure Jole is gonna be very happy to meet you again!”

Over: /NEDERLANDS Ik ben opgegroeid met dieren en heb door de jaren heen voor allerlei huisdieren gezorgd, waaronder katten, honden, papegaaien, vissen en konijnen. Daarnaast heb ik jarenlang paardgereden. Op latere leeftijd heb ik meer dan 10 jaar mijn eigen agapornissen gehad (lovebirds), waardoor ik veel ervaring heb opgedaan met dagelijkse verzorging, verantwoordelijkheid en het begrijpen van de behoeften van een huisdier. Op dit moment heb ik zelf geen huisdieren meer en ik merk dat ik het gezelschap van dieren erg mis. Daarom vind ik oppassen op huisdieren zo leuk. Regelmatig pas ik op de dieren van familie en vrienden, en ik geniet er echt van om tijd met dieren door te brengen. Of jouw huisdier nu houdt van lange wandelingen, spelen, knuffelen of gewoon een vertrouwd gezicht in huis, ik zorg ervoor dat ze zich veilig, comfortabel en geliefd voelt! /ENGLISH I grew up surrounded by animals and have cared for many different pets over the years, including cats, dogs, parrots, fish, and rabbits. I also spent many years horse riding. Later in life, I had my own lovebirds (agapornis parrots) for more than 10 years, which gave me plenty of experience with daily pet care, responsibility, and understanding the needs of animals. At the moment, I don't have any pets of my own anymore, and I really miss having animals around. That's one of the reasons I enjoy pet sitting so much. I regularly look after pets for family and friends, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. /NEDERLANDS Ik werk 36 uur per week en werk 2 à 3 dagen vanuit huis. De dagen die als beschikbaar staan aangegeven op mijn profiel zijn de dagen waarop ik thuiswerk. Omdat mijn werk vrij flexibel is, heb ik gedurende de dag genoeg tijd voor wandelingen, spelen, eten geven en natuurlijk veel aandacht en knuffels voor jouw huisdier. In de weekenden heb ik alle tijd om extra aandacht te besteden aan de verzorging en het gezelschap van jouw huisdier. Jouw huisdier zal nooit tekortkomen aan aandacht, beweging, liefde en een fijne omgeving :) /ENGLISH I work a 36-hour week and work from home 2–3 days during the week. The days marked as available on my profile are the days I work from home. Because my job is quite flexible, I have plenty of time throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and of course giving your pet lots of attention and affection. During weekends, I have even more time to dedicate to your pet's care and company. Your pet will never be short on attention, cuddles, or exercise while staying with us :) /NEDERLANDS Ik woon in een modern nieuwbouwappartement in een rustige omgeving. Mijn woning is schoon, veilig en comfortabel, met een ruim stenen balkon dat volledig is afgesloten met glazen wanden, waardoor huisdieren veilig kunnen genieten van frisse lucht en zon. /ENGELS I live in a modern, newly built apartment in a quiet area. My home is clean, safe, and comfortable, with a spacious stone balcony enclosed by glass panels where pets can safely enjoy some fresh air and sunshine.

“Mariangel, quedose con nuestra Mile por una semana y fue muy cuidadosa con la Mile, tiene mucho amor con los animales. Fue muy cuidadosa con la perra que tiene 15 años y pasó muy bien. Sempre que es posible dejamos con Mariangel.”

Over: Hello! I am Evridiki, from Greece and I am living in the Netherlands for the last 7 years, so is by now my second home. I am more than happy to take care of your dog(s) or cats and I can remember every detail of the instructions that will be given. I am really positive and I would like to help as much as possible. After all, its a win win since I can spend some time with adorable pets. Myself I was surrounded by two beautiful cats but they dont live with me anymore since I moved away. Let me know what you need and maybe we can arrange something. Very flexible and willing to work with you. See you soon 🐾 Im currently working in retail / famous clothing brand most afternoons. Usually free on weekends and Monday but I can always take care of your pets before and after work. I always listen to instructions. I usually dont leave doors open and on daily walks i never leave a dog unattended. Cats are always advised to stay inside.

Over: Na mijn persoonlijke reis met mijn puppy die ik heb grootgebracht en getraind ben ik mijn liefde voor honden en andere dieren alleen maar meer gaan waarderen. Door mijn eigen ervaringen heb ik geleerd hoeveel rust, vertrouwen en geluk dieren kunnen brengen. Ik bied honden en katten een warm en liefdevol thuis in mijn fijne huis, omringd door natuur. Met rust, aandacht en fijne wandelingen midden in de natuur, langs bossen, vijvers en de duinen. In mijn grote afgesloten tuin en speciaal ingerichte kamer kunnen zij veilig ontspannen, spelen en genieten van alle aandacht die zij nodig hebben. Ik vind het belangrijk dat dieren zich veilig, rustig en vertrouwd voelen. Daarom kijk ik goed naar hun behoeften en geef ik ieder dier persoonlijke aandacht. De aanwezigheid van honden mis ik enorm en daarom geef ik honden en katten met veel liefde, geduld en aandacht een warm thuis. Missschien tot snel! 😊 Ik werk voornamelijk vanuit huis, waardoor de verzorging van huisdieren perfect in mijn dagelijkse routine past. Mijn dagen kan ik flexibel indelen zodat er voldoende tijd is voor uitlaten, spelen, rustmomenten en persoonlijke aandacht. Daarnaast maak ik graag wandelingen in de dichtbijgelegen bossen en prachtige duinen, zodat honden voldoende beweging, frisse lucht en ontspanning krijgen. Ik verzorg huisdieren in een rustige, veilige en huiselijke omgeving met veel persoonlijke aandacht. In mijn ruime huis en omheinde tuin kunnen honden vrij rennen, spelen en ontspannen. Daarnaast heb ik twee aparte kamers ingericht: één voor honden met matten en speeltjes, en één voor katten met een speel- en klimhoek waar zij zich veilig kunnen terugtrekken. Meerdere keren per dag maken we fijne wandelingen en tussendoor zijn er voldoende rustmomenten, zodat dieren zich ontspannen en vertrouwd kunnen voelen.

“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 🐾”

“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 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.

“It was such a relief to meet Christa! To find her such a lovely and responsible person, I could absolutely trust her with my dog. He’s quite a tough dog to handle with lots of precautions, but she was perfectly able to deal with him and fully respected all my rules with discipline. They got along very well, and I was impressed - especially it was my first time ever to leave my dog with a stranger. Christa was also easy to communicate with, responsive, sent me updates and was flexible. I will go exclusive from here on out!”

Nour S.

“Celine and her partner were absolutely amazing with our dog. It was our first time having her stay somewhere other than home since we adopted her a year ago, and Celine kept us updated the whole time, and I could tell our dog was super happy with all the care, attention, and outings. Thanks so much to Celine for all her care and we’d love to have our pup stay with her again,”

Anna K.

“We’ve left out Lab Saga and our french bulldog Luna with Monique, Sam and their lovely dog Charlie for our weekend away. Since it was our first boarding experience we didn’t know what to expect. But Monique offered a first meet and great and after that it all went smoothly. She has sent picture updates and answered all our questions while we were away. Saga and Luna seem to enjoy their stay as well. I would definitely write to her again in the future. Thanks for everything 🐾”

Over: As a lifelong animal lover living in Utrecht, I offer a calm and loving home where your pets will be treated like family. I work from home, which means I can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I've cared for both dogs and cats for friends and family over the years and truly enjoy spending time with them-whether it's a playful walk, a cuddle on the couch, or keeping them company when you're away. My home is safe, smoke-free, and is located accros the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal in Utrecht, which means plenty of green area for your best friend to play around. Whether it's for a weekend or a longer stay, you can count on me for reliable, loving care-and lots of updates! I work from home, so have plenty of time to exchange and play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on any day of the week. I provide care in a calm, smoke-free apartment with a beautiful view of the Amsterdam-Rijnkanaal boulevard. My home is a safe and peaceful environment, with no children and no resident pets, so your pet will receive my full attention and comfort while staying here.

“Louise was an amazing dog sitter for Ollie! Ollie clearly had a wonderful time in her care, which we really appreciated. She followed our care instructions perfectly, giving us peace of mind while we were away. She sent regular photo updates as well. I highly recommend Louise to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

Denise Y.

“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.”

Neelam B.

“Marcela and Cristian are fantastic team - my baby was clearly in good hands. And as anxious doggie mum who was leaving him first time in a new place I got all the updates and photos - could not be happier with the experience!”

Natalia S.

“Natalia en haar familie hebben fantastisch voor mijn lieve hond Lua gezorgd. Lua is door haar leeftijd en het feit dat ze maar drie poten heeft geen doorsnee hond om op te passen, maar Natalia heeft haar gedurende de paar dagen dat ik op vakantie was alle zorg, aandacht en geduld gegeven die ze nodig had. Ik kreeg iedere dag een update, inclusief leuke foto's, waardoor ik met een gerust hart van mijn vakantie kon genieten. Niet alleen Natalia, maar haar hele familie straalde liefde voor dieren uit, en dat was duidelijk terug te zien in de manier waarop ze met Lua omgingen. Lua heeft het zichtbaar ontzettend naar haar zin gehad. Mocht ik in de toekomst weer een oppas nodig hebben, dan weet ik zeker dat ik haar met een gerust hart opnieuw aan Natalia en haar familie toevertrouw.”

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. This is my first time offering pet-sitting services professionally, I have experience caring for pets belonging to 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.

“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.”

“Sam took care of Sadie for 5 days and she did a wonderful job at it! She is a very friendly, approachable person, with a relaxed attitude. She sent me lots of pics and video's so that I could enjoy my holidays without worrying. Her two dogs were also very nice company for mine. The house and garden are a perfect environment for dogs! She communicates very well and consulted me when she wasn't sure about how to treat a situation. I would definitely recommend her and will most probably make use of her service in the future. Thank you Sam!”
