Op de kat passen Utrecht

“Christina is affable and took good care of our cat when we were away. She sent regular updates and photos and spent quality time with our cat. Our cat loved her as well and looked forward to her visits.”

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.

“I’m extremely happy I found Ellen to take care of my cat while I was away. She’s very kind, respectful and thoughtful, and has great attention to detail. When we met before I left she asked about several things I may otherwise have forgotten, so that gave me confidence in her commitment. While I was away she completely lived up to that impression—and then some! She sent me lots of beautiful pictures of my cat, and he seemed to enjoy her company tremendously. I couldn’t help but suspect he likes her more than me. 😂 I just have nothing negative or even neutral to say about my experience. Simply a great experience! I just hope she’s available whenever I need a sitter in the future.”

Over: I’ve had dogs and cats since am 8 years old, I have “trained” them to be well behaved but the most important thing is I loved them all I work full-time as a developer from Monday to Friday, so I’m available after 7 PM on weekdays. On Saturdays and Sundays, I’m fully available and have plenty of time to care for, play with, and keep your pets company. I can care for both cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable looking after pets either in my home or in their own home, although I prefer caring for them in the environment they already know. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to follow each owner’s instructions to make sure their pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Chantal is an exceptional sitter. She is warm, reliable, and completely trustworthy. I would gladly reach out to her again in the future. She put genuine care and effort into playtime with our cat, which made a noticeable difference. When we returned from our trip, our cat was visibly relaxed and content, clearly showing how much of a positive impact Chantal’s visits had.”

“An amazing experience for Lily and me, it was my first time using this app and Tina really helped me to feel relaxed at my vacation, sending me updates and pictures 🩷 an amazing experience”

Over: Olá! I'm a 27-year-old Portuguese pet enthusiast living in the Netherlands. Back home in Portugal, I have two adorable cats, one is 8 years old, and the other is 5 years old. I also had the pleasure of sharing my life with a wonderful dog for 14 years. Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I deeply cherish the companionship and joy they bring. I live alone in the center of Utrecht. I do have a full time job from 9 to 17:30 with 1 working day from home. I have complete free time to take care of pets as it's something that I really enjoy doing it. I don't own any pets. I live on the second floor on a 70m2 appartment with a lot of space close to Neude, city center of Utrecht.

“Pirada took such wonderful care of our cat Bobbie! She sent us regular updates, and it was lovely to see Bobbie gradually warming up to her. When we returned home, he was happy and clearly well looked after. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing that Bobbie was in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter and would absolutely recommend Pirada!”

Over: See English below! Hoi! Ik ben Hannah, 33 jaar, en ik pas met veel liefde op jou dieren. Ik ben opgegroeid met dieren - katten, cavia's, honden, gerbils, vissen etc. Daarnaast heb ik Biologie gestudeerd, met een focus op diergedrag en ecologie. De afgelopen jaren heb ik veel gereisd en gewoond in onder andere Japan en Australië. Daar, en tussendoor in Nederland, heb ik regelmatig op dieren en huizen gepast, en vrijwilligerswerk gedaan in asiels met straatdieren en wilde dieren. Ik ben daardoor bekend met dieren met verschillende karakters, behoeften en energieniveaus. Ik vind het heerlijk om tijd met dieren door te brengen en vind het belangrijk om goed naar hun gedrag en behoeften te kijken. Ik ben rustig, verantwoordelijk en betrouwbaar en zorg natuurlijk met veel liefde voor jouw huisdier. Of je dier nu houdt van lange wandelingen en veel aandacht, graag speelt, of juist behoefte heeft aan rust en een vertrouwde omgeving: ik pas me graag aan. Ik laat alleen honden uit zonder te grote gedragsproblemen, en doe dat voor 25-30 minuten, of met liefde een uur als daar behoefte aan is. Ik houd van wandelen en met z'n tweetjes is een stuk leuker dan alleen :). Bij kattenbezoekjes kom ik ook voor 30 min langs om gezelschap te zijn. Uiteraard staat de zorg voor jouw dieren altijd voorop. Het is ook mogelijk dat ik een hele dag op je hond of kat pas bij jou thuis. Ik maak graag vooraf even kennis (kan per telefoon of in persoon) om te kijken of er een goede klik is en om alles over jouw dieren, hun routine en wensen te bespreken. Hi! I'm Hannah, 33 years old, and I'd love to take care of your pets. I grew up surrounded by animals, including cats, guinea pigs, dogs, gerbils and fish. I also have a degree in Biology, with a focus on animal behaviour and ecology. Over the past few years, I've travelled extensively and lived in places such as Japan and Australia. During my travels, as well as in the Netherlands, I've regularly looked after pets and houses and volunteered at shelters caring for stray and wild animals. This has given me experience with animals with a wide range of personalities, needs and energy levels. I love spending time with animals and believe it's important to pay attention to their behaviour and individual needs. I'm calm, responsible and reliable, and I'll always take care of your pets with plenty of love and attention. Whether your pet enjoys long walks and lots of attention, loves to play or simply prefers a quiet and familiar environment, I'm happy to adapt to their needs. I only offer dog walking for dogs without significant behavioural issues. Walks usually last 25–30 minutes, but I'm more than happy to walk for an hour if needed. I love being outdoors, and walking together is much more fun than going alone! :) For cat visits, I also spend around 30 minutes with them, providing company and attention. Of course, your pets' well-being always comes first. I'm also available to look after your dog or cat at your home for an entire day. I'd be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand, either by phone or in person, to see if we're a good fit and discuss everything about your pets, their routines and your preferences. I work part time, from home and have lots of time off. I like to spend time with the cat or dog. Walking, but also just being there as company. It's easy for me to be flexible and adjust to your schedule. I care for pets based on the owners instructions and my own experience and how I'd like my animal companions to be treated. The same goes for the house. With care and respect.

“Onze kat Pucca vond Alex meteen lief. Verder is Alex prettig in het contact en komt hij zijn afspraken na.”

“Huizhi is an amazing sitter! Always shared me with photos and videos of my cat. Very attentive and friendly person, will definitely rebook her in future!”

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.

“Maud stuurde elke dag foto's en filmpjes waarop de katten er heel gelukkig uitzagen. ”

“Monique is absolutely amazing! She is very kind and thoughtful - our cats were super lucky to be looked after by her. She was very consistent with her visits and constantly provided us with new pictures. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”

Kristina T.

“Taciser was fantastic! She is very reliable and great at communication. We received daily updates and came home to relaxed and healthy cats, as well as a clean house. One of our cats is very shy, but she felt at ease with Taciser and came out of hiding pretty quickly. All in all, we're very happy with Taciser and can't recommend her highly enough!”

“Flexibility is not always the normal, nowadays. Fortunately Sara is! Really nice and friendly and kept me posted. Will for sure book her next time.”

Over: Hello there! My name is Eirini, and I'm originally from Greece, though I've happily called the Netherlands home for the past five years. I'm definitely a busy bee. I balance my days as a Marketing Manager for a tech-health startup while finishing my degree in Creative Business. When I’m not working, you can usually find me singing with my (super cool) choir here in Utrecht, Dekoor. I am currently working part time and I also work often from home. I am generally very flexible in times and very happy to assist you ☺️ I find safety and peace the most important for cats and owners. I am very happy to play with them and I can handle a few scratches with grace! After they felt comfortable, but my first priority is to make your cat feel comfortable. I am very patient and happy to adapt to your cat’s character and needs. I am also very good with taking notes on how you make sure of that and more than happy to provide pictures if you need them for your peace of mind. ☺️

“Caroline is friendly and easy to communicate with. Highly recommended :)”

Over: I began working with animals in 2016 through Paws and Claws, an independent daycare and dog walking service in the UK. My responsibilities included walking, feeding, and caring for dogs throughout the morning and afternoon. I was also responsible for pick-up and drop-off, which involved being trusted with access to clients’ homes. Alongside this, I carried out house calls to help socialise dogs or check in on those who didn’t require a full day of on-site daycare. At the daycare facility, I comfortably handled groups of up to ten dogs of varying breeds, sizes, and temperaments on walks in the local woodlands. As demand grew, I expanded my services to include house and pet sitting across several nearby villages and towns. Over the years, I have cared for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, and I am also happy to tend to gardens or house plants when needed. After moving to Utrecht for my studies, I began offering my own dog walking and pet sitting services to pet owners that I met in the city or at surrounding walking spots. During my time in Utrecht, I also worked for a local hondenuitlaat service, which gave me experience with a lot of common (and some less common) Dutch breeds. A few years later, I am now living in Amsterdam, working full-time with dogs at a fantastic farm facility outside of the city, and finishing up my Master's degree. Do I sound like the right fit for you and your dog? Drop me a message and we can arrange an initial meeting to get to know each other better! (Multiple positive references available upon request). I work a few days a week at a dog daycare organisation on a rural farmland property outside of Amsterdam. On my working days, if I am looking after a dog, I like to bring them with me so that they can socialise with the pack. All transport is done using a fully converted, dog-friendly wagon with additional AC (and lots of cookies!). If a dog needs to be left alone or doesn't get along with other dogs, this can also be easily accommodated during the day in a safe, penned-off area at the facility. On my days off, I am entirely flexible and work from home while finishing my Master's thesis, making my routine highly compatible with dedicated pet care. I live with my girlfriend in a large, multi-room apartment in the Rivierenbuurt neighbourhood of Amsterdam. The location is convenient for dogs and humans alike, being just a short walk from several metro stations and with easy drop-off outside via street access. We are lucky to be located just a stone's throw away from Beatrixpark and Martin Luther Kingpark, with the Amstel and the Amsterdamse Bos close by, providing some wonderful green spaces right on our doorstep for daily walks. Our apartment has two balconies (one of which gets the sun all day long ☀️☀️☀️) and plenty of comfy space inside for dogs to relax. All my dog guests get an entire room to themselves to ensure they have their own quiet and safe space to rest—unless, of course, they prefer to cuddle up with us on the sofa or in bed... Because of my professional background managing packs, safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities, whether looking after a pet in my home or yours.
