Dagopvang 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.

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. Ik werk fulltime maar heb de mogelijkheid om veel thuis te werken. Af en toe moet ik voor mijn werk 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.

“José is een fijne oppas voor Boet, onze pup van 7 maanden. Je kunt goede afspraken met hem maken, hij communiceert helder en direct. José is flexibel met breng-en haal tijden. Hij is superleuk en lief met Boet. Hij geeft hem veel aandacht. Gedurende de dag stuurt hij updates, foto's en filmpjes zodat we zien hoe fijn en gezellig Boet het heeft. Kortom, een superfijne, betrouwbare oppas.”

Over: Hi there! Animals have been a core part of my life for as long as I can remember. Having cared for dogs, cats, parrots, and hamsters over the years, pet care is both a lifelong passion and second nature to me. I remember myself at 7-8 years old begging for a pet to take care of, because I couldn’t take chickens or pigs to my apartment from my grandmas village. Since I was 14 years old I have been taking care of my cat Mars and after that dog Herra. They were a big part of my life, you can see them on my pictures. I potty trained my cat, walked and trained my dog, spending a lot of my feee time with them. Now that I live in the Netherlands and currently cannot have a pet in my house permanently, I would really love to take care and give my love to your pets. What i offer: * Work-From-Home Flexibility: Available throughout the day for mid-day check-ins, feeding, and dog walks every 2–4 hours. * Tailored Energy Levels: Long, stimulating walks and games of fetch for active pups, plus calm, reassuring companionship for quieter pets. * Comprehensive Pet Care: Reliable drop-in visits for cats, routine feedings, engaging play, and experience administering necessary medication. * Hands-On Experience: As a long-time former dog owner, I deeply understand pet safety, routine, and individual care needs. I am working full-time but mostly from home that makes it easier for me to have my evenings free. I am also available during the weekends. For the Active Adventurer: I have plenty of enthusiasm for long, brisk walks, outdoor exploration, and engaging games that will leave your pet happy and tired. For the Homebody & Senior Pet: I love creating a calm, safe environment. I'm more than happy to spend hours just hanging out at home, sharing moments of peace, and offering quiet companionship.

Over: Hi there! I’m an experienced pet lover offering attentive, personalized care for your pets. Having owned my own pets and cared for family and friends' animals for years, I treat every furry guest as if they were my own. What I Offer: At my home: Your pet will feel right at home in my cozy space. I live right across from a local park, which means plenty of long daily walks and outdoor playtime. I also have a small maltipoo who is super friendly and he loves making new furry friends. At your home: I am happy to come to your place for drop-in visits or house sitting whatever makes your pet most comfortable. Reliable with giving necessary meds. Flexible schedule: my days are very adaptable, and I am open to custom arrangements to fit your routine. Everything is open for discussion. Feel free to reach out with any questions. I work from home full-time. My schedule is naturally flexible, allowing me to give guest pets constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Safety, comfort, and low stress are my top priorities. Living right across from Theo van Gogh Park, I offer guest pets a calm, secure space paired with ideal outdoor surroundings

“Kate is amazing and Bella felt immediately comfortable with her. ♥️ Definitely, I will reach out to her for dog sitting.☺️”

Over: I’ve had pets all my life and have always had a deep love for animals. Back home, I have two 🐶 (age 13 and 8) and two 🐱 so I’m very comfortable caring for both younger and older pets and understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’ve also looked after dogs on multiple occasions, from regular walks to overnight stays, and I really enjoy getting to know each pet and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re away from their owners. My boyfriend and I have a spacious home with a big garden, giving dogs plenty of space to relax, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. We’re happy to welcome both dogs and cats for short or longer stays, whether it’s just one night or several days, depending on our availability. What your pet can expect: 🏡 A spacious, comfortable home 🌳 A big garden to enjoy 🐕 Walks and outdoor time 🎾 Playtime and attention 🍖 Meals according to their usual routine ❤️ Lots of love, cuddles, and companionship 😴 Plenty of time to rest Our goal is not just to look after your pet, but to get to know them so hopefully we can become your sitters of trust for your furry friend. I can care for dogs throughout the day on weekdays (especially Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays as I work remotely), as well throughout the whole weekend. I’m also happy to provide overnight stays, either for one night or multiple nights depending on my schedule. For cats, I can either visit them at your home or, when suitable, they can stay with us at our place on the same available days. For me, caring for a pet is about more than just feeding them and taking them for walks. I like to spend time with them, understand their personality, have fun with them, ensuring they are safe and feel attended. I take care of your pet the way I’d want someone to care for my own!!

Over: Many of my friends and neighbours come to me for pet sitting - dogs and cats. I send them pictures every day, and the owners often say that their pets look so happy with me!! I'm gentle while firm, and will help your little animal stick to the rules and training, while giving them so much love that they deserve. I also have experience taking care of rabbits, guinea pigs, and parakeets. I work from home fully, so very flexible with my schedule and open to adapting to the needs of your little one. A typical schedule - 08:00 - a morning leg stretch; 12:00 - a bit of running in the neighbourhood park; 18:00 - a digestive walk to the lush dog park; 22:00 - a chill evening stroll. I have a big enough apartment for 3~5 animals, and they'll have plenty of space to run around! Your little animal will be allowed on furniture and the whole apartment, but not on the bed

“Stéphanie and her partner looked after our Puppy for the day. They were great communicators, very friendly and were very proficient looking after a puppy. We got regular updates throughout the day & it was obvious our pup was comfortable and relaxed with them. Would happily request another sitting in the future.”

“Dheeraj is a very kind and available guy, my dog looked comfortable with him (it was the first time for my dog). He sent me updated with videos. I recommend him :)”

Over: Two Dalmatians, a chihuahua, a Pomeranian and three mutts were my siblings growing up. I took care of them through every vet visit, may it be grooming days, sick days, or the few times they’ve given birth to puppies! I currently work part time so I am mostly at home and can do check-ins or walks, this is updated on my Rover calendar. I stay alert on walks and during home-sitting with pets. Care instructions for your little one will be carefully followed and depending on your preference, I can send updates throughout the sitting.

“Adoring couple, who sitted my dog repeatedly. A lot of tail wagging involved on seeing them again! Very flexible and helpful! Highly recommended!”

Beatrice A.

Over: I love dogs. I always had dogs personally my entire life so I will take care of your dog like it’s mine. He will be safe in a safe and calm environment. It’s only me at home and I will give your dog full attention. I will also send you reports throughout the day if you wish. Let me know what suits him/ her in a daily routine and I will do the needful . I’m a very responsible person as well. Thanks !

Ik ben dol op honden. Ik heb zelf mijn hele leven honden gehad, dus ik zal voor jouw hond zorgen alsof het mijn eigen hond is. Hij zal veilig zijn in een rustige en veilige omgeving. Ik woon alleen, waardoor ik jouw hond alle aandacht kan geven. Als je dat wilt, houd ik je gedurende de dag op de hoogte. Laat me weten wat zijn of haar dagelijkse routine is, dan zorg ik ervoor dat daaraan wordt voldaan. Ik ben bovendien erg verantwoordelijk. Bedankt! I have plenty of time to be with your pet and I can give my full attention. I will make sure that it feels like home. I have suitable space and there is green areas just around my house where We can walk and enjoy the time. Lift is available in case you have a senior dog that doesn't do the stairs.

“Vera was incredibly helpful we needed last minute doggy day care for our pup. I would highly recommend her services”

Over: Hi! I'm Julieth from Colombia, currently living in the beautiful Netherlands. Growing up, I was always surrounded by pets, from dogs and cats to birds and small mammals. They've been a constant source of joy and learning in my life, and my passion for animals has only grown over the years. I love all kinds of animals and have extensive experience caring for them. I understand that leaving your pet in someone else's care can be a tough decision, so I strive to make that choice easier by providing the best possible care. Whether your furry friend needs a walk, some playtime, feeding, grooming, or just a bit of company, you can count on me to provide the love and attention they deserve. I believe that every pet is unique, with their own personality and needs, and I tailor my care to meet those individual requirements. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you're away. With me, your pet will not only be well-cared for but also have a fun and engaging time. I’m dedicated, reliable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pets and helping to make your time apart as stress-free as possible. Let’s ensure your pet is happy, healthy, and well-cared for while you're away. Well, I'm studying a Master degree in Utrecht University, I finished my courses so my time is flexible to care pets. I love animals, share and taking care of them. I have a perfect location close to Utrecht central. I live in the first floor, I do not have kids or more pets. So, I can be exclusively dedicated to your lovely pet or pets.

“First time I have my dog with anyone and I thought it will be very hard. Thank you both for being wonderful with him and for making this very easy and flexible ♥️🙏🏼”

“Michelle was great, extremely attentive and took care of a slightly mental cocker spaniel puppy, their house is perfect for dogs, little outside and near a park. Thanks so much, Goose loved it!”

“Fiorella was amazing with my dog Evey! She’s dogs at for her and had her overnight, and both times she kept me updated, sent photos, and was very communicative. The second time Evey went back and saw her waiting, she started running for her in excitement - so I’ll definitely have Evey with Fiorella more often :)”

Over: Both of us are currently working from home, and our schedules allow us to be flexible to care for your pet. There will always be 2 pairs of watchful eyes on your pet and we will never leave them unattended even if they are sleeping. We also love taking walks in nature, so we would be very happy to walk your dog and spend time with them outdoors. Our weekends are very flexible, so we are open to also watching your pets for a longer duration! We have a quiet apartment, with plenty of space for the pets to run around and play. As we regularly pet-sit, we always ensure that the pet has the water bowl filled, and a cozy corner with their toys and blanket. We make sure that our balcony is closed, and all decorative objects in the house are out-of-reach. We love playing and cuddling with the pets and always keep a constant eye on them and send photo/video updates to the pet parents.

“Maria is extraordinarily kind and communicative and took great care of my rescue Costa for the day. It’s obvious she provides a safe and stable place for dogs with difficulties because there were none despite Costa being in a brand new environment at her home. She kept me posted and is consistently polite and I can’t wait to trust her again with sitting my Costa.”
