Hondenopvang Velsen

“I highly recommend Rita! She was an amazing sitter for Hunter. She sent me daily videos, photos, and updates, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear from the updates that Hunter was very happy and well cared for. Her consistent communication and attention to detail made the entire experience completely worry-free. Rita is a wonderful, caring, and trustworthy sitter, and I am extremely happy with her service. I would definitely book with her again!”

“Daisy and her family were very nice with my dog. She shared pictures with me every day and took a very good care of my pet. I do recommend Daisy for anyone that needs some support with the dog.”

“Anastasia is a wonderful sitter and I highly recommend considering to book her as your sitter. She was absolutely wonderful with my senior dog that comes with special medical needs. Anastasia asked all the right questions and was very eager to provide the best care possible. She fully succeeded and I could tell my dog was very comfortable in her home. Anastasia is easy to communicate with, trustworthy, responds quickly, has a neat and tidy home, and is overall a lovely person. 5 star review, 100% would book again.”

“Such a wonderful and friendly family! They were super attentive and kept us updated with lots of pictures of our dog. We felt completely at ease leaving our pup with them.”

Over: I have two cats who are 8 and 4 years old. I have experience with taking care of cats and dogs. I can do home visit and dog walking. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your dogs and cats! I'm available for boarding at weekends, and on weekdays after 3pm I have a garden and also two friendly cats who can keep your baby company. If not I live by the beach and I can take your baby to the beach

“Claudia is een geweldige oppas. Onze cavalier Charlie was voor het eerst bij haar te logeren en had het helemaal naar z’n zin. Hij voelde zich meteen thuis in de knusse woning van Klaudia die deels ook ingericht op haar logee. Zij is communicatief en hield ons op gezette tijden op de hoogte van hoe de logeerpartij verliep. Kortom we bevelen Klaudia van harte aan!”

Over: Wij zijn een warm gezin met twee jonge kinderen van 7 en 5 jaar en een enorme liefde voor honden. Zelf hebben wij jarenlang honden gehad, waardoor we veel ervaring hebben. Vanwege ons werk kiezen we er bewust voor om op de dagen dat we echt tijd hebben een gezellige oppashond in huis te nemen. Wij zijn beschikbaar op woensdag, vrijdag en af en toe in het weekend. Bij ons krijgt uw hond volop aandacht. Veel knuffels en speelmomenten met de kinderen. Lekkere wandelingen. Een liefdevolle huiselijke omgeving. Dit natuurlijk waarbij wij rekening houden met de behoefte van uw hond en de regels en routines welke hij/zij gewent is. Wij wonen op de eerste etage, daarom zoeken wij bij voorkeur een hond die we (volwassenen) de trap op kunnen tillen wanneer dat nodig is. Zoekt u een betrouwbaar en liefdevol adresje waar uw hond zich welkom voelt? Dan maken wij graag kennis! Wij kijken uit naar een leuke match en hopen dat dit een oppashondje wordt die we met regelmaat zien. Uw hond kan bij ons zijn van woensdagochtend vanaf 07.30 uur tot woensdagavond 21.00 uur zijn. vrijdagochtend vanaf 07.30 uur Of donderdag vanaf 17.30 uur tot vrijdagavond in overleg (afhankelijk van de plannen) Of aansluitend het weekend. In overleg en tegen betaling kan ik de hond ook halen / brengen. Wij ontvangen uw hond graag bij ons thuis, waarbij hij/zij onderdeel van het gezin zal zijn. Wij vinden het heerlijk om te kroelen of te spelen en wij zijn graag buiten met de hond, maar er zijn ook voldoende momenten van rusten. Naast dat wij binnen een zee aan ruimte hebben, hebben we ook beperkte buiten ruimte.

Over: Hi! I’m Suria, a calm, reliable and caring animal lover. I’ve always had animals around me and really enjoy getting to know their different personalities. I offer dog walking, home visits, pet sitting and overnight stays. When looking after your pet, I like to stick to their usual routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable and relaxed. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddles or simply giving them some space, I always try to follow what works best for them. I know every pet is different, so I’m happy to discuss their routine, personality and anything I should keep in mind beforehand. I’m patient with animals and always respect their boundaries. I’m also happy to arrange a meet & greet beforehand, so you can get to know me and feel comfortable leaving your pet in my care. Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! 🐶🐱🐦 Dutch/English I work part-time remotely, so I have plenty of time to look after pets. Because I work from home, they’re rarely left alone. I’m flexible on both weekdays and weekends and happy to work around their usual routine. We can arrange visit times together based on what works best for you and your pet. Whether your pet stays with me or I look after them in their own home, I always want them to feel safe, comfortable and relaxed. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible and take the time to get to know their personality and needs. At my home, I make sure they have a calm and comfortable space and plenty of attention, while at their own home I keep things as familiar as possible. I’m happy to follow your instructions and keep you updated during their stay or visit.

“We had an excellent experience with Paola and Salvatore. Our dog, Ziggy, stayed with them for two weeks, and despite sometimes struggling with separation anxiety, he seemed relaxed, happy, and very comfortable from the start. They kept us updated daily with messages and photos/videos, which we really appreciated. When we picked Ziggy up, he was calm, happy, and clearly very fond of them. We would happily leave him in their care again. Highly recommend!”

Over: Hi! I’m Alisa, and I’d be happy to care for your dog or cat while you’re away 🤍 Whether you need boarding in my home, house sitting in yours, dog walking, or home visits, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for 🐾 I live in a quiet two-story house (about 90 m²) in Haarlem Noord, in the peaceful Indischewijk neighborhood. It’s a calm residential area with lovely green spaces nearby, mostly home to families and retirees, making it a great environment for relaxed walks I don’t have any pets of our own here in the Netherlands, so your dog will have our full attention. I work from home every day—I’m a ceramic artist (all my pieces are animal themed, huge animal lover here), so your pet will not be left home alone. My home is quiet, cozy, and perfect for pets who enjoy a calm environment I grew up surrounded by animals. My family has always had both dogs and cats, so caring for pets has been a part of my life since childhood. Over the years I’ve looked after breeds including a Black Russian Terrier, Cane Corso, and Prague Ratter, as well as many cats—from tiny kittens to senior cats. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love spending time with them I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I send regular photo and video updates so you can always feel calm knowing exactly how your pet is doing :) Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, naps, or just having someone nearby, I’ll happily adapt to their routine and personality 🫶🏻 If you have any questions at all, feel free to send me a message. I’d love to get to know you and your furry friend! 🐾 I work from home full-time, so your pet will have plenty of company throughout the day and will not be left alone. I’m very flexible and can usually adapt to your pet’s routine, whether it’s regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or simply providing a calm companion during the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting throughout the week, including weekends with advance notice Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I live in a quiet two-story home in Haarlem Noord with no other pets, so your dog or cat will receive our full attention. My neighborhood is peaceful, with several lovely green areas for walks. I always follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide

Over: I've had dogs all my life, however in the past 15 years I have focused on senior pet rescue, foster, and hospice. One of our dogs even had a pace maker! I have extensive experience in medication administration and a deep love for all animals. Right now we have a senior toothless chihuahua which is why we limit the size of pets we take in our home. However, if you have a large dog that is older extremely gentle and mild mannered we can discuss having our dogs meet and exceptions can be made. I would also consider a 2nd dog from the same household. Between my husband and I one of us is always home with our senior so no one will be left unattended. If I am coming to your pet I accept everyone and adapt to your pets individual needs and environment. The environment we provide is calm, safe, comfortable, and quiet with constant supervision. Pets are allowed on the furniture with pet stairs and blankets provided. If I am coming to your home I adapt to your pets needs and environment to keep it as routine as possible for them.

Over: I’ve taken care of alot of dogs in my youth, especially larger ones, i had a male cane corso as family dog. I take very cheap deals, just want to earn some extra money fast. I work full time with early to night shifts and would love to take care of dogs between them and on free days, my work schedule can be very different each week so i dont have any guaranteed free days every single time. I got a studio i live in with a large dogbed for any dog to use! And besides that i live next to the dunes where id love to take your dog(s) on a nice long walk

Over: “I love animals and I am a responsible, caring and calm person who truly enjoys taking good care of dogs. I am punctual, trustworthy and always focused on making sure every pet feels safe and happy. I am new to professional pet sitting, but I have personal experience taking care of dogs from family and friends. This has taught me to be patient, attentive and responsible. I also have a small dog at home. She is friendly, calm and fully vaccinated, which has helped me better understand dogs and their needs. I am very used to living with pets and I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to provide the best care possible. I enjoy long walks, playing, and spending time with dogs. I am available in Zaandam and Amsterdam and I am motivated to learn and grow while providing loving and reliable care.” I am a student and I study English for about three hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. After my classes, I am fully available and flexible for pet care during the rest of the day and week. I enjoy spending time with animals and can easily include walks and care in my daily routine. I always prioritize the safety and well-being of every pet. At home, I have a friendly dog, and I am used to caring for animals responsibly. My house has a garden, but it is not fenced, so I only allow outdoor time under supervision or I go for regular walks instead. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable and supervised at all times. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and providing them with attention, exercise and care.

Over: Een aantal jaar geleden had ik een oppas gezin met nog twee puppys erbij waar ik ook voor oppaste. Verder heeft mijn oma altijd honden gehad. Ook is mijn zusje dierenarts en laat ze me altijd veel zien. Ik werk parttime waardoor ik de woensdagen vrij ben. De za en zo doe ik vaak rustig aan en maak ik vaak wandelingen en daar past een hond goed bij. Ik woon in een appartement met een groot balkon die veilig omringd is door dichte hekken. Verder is er veel natuur in de buurt en de molenplas.

Over: Hi there ! I am Valeria and I’m originally from Peru but I have been living in the Netherlands for a few years now. A year and a half ago I got myself a dog (Copito) and he became family right away. In Peru, I have always lived surrounded by dogs (3 actually 😅) and now I am more than happy to share my life with Copito and hopefully your dog 🐶. I am very flexible and can accommodate to any requests. I will do whatever I need to make sure your dog feels at home. ♥️ I work from home on Monday’s, Wednesdays and Friday’s and I am home during the weekends, I can be flexible with time and can work around schedules. I have a small garden for your dog, and together with Copito (my dog), we will make sure your dog always has company :) Of course if there any preferences, we can make it work.

Over: About Me & My Motivation

Hi! I’m an animal lover based in Zandvoort, and I’ve always had a deep connection with pets. I lived with my own cat for 3 years, which taught me about trust, patience, and emotional bonding with animals. I also previously volunteered at a local cat café where I cared for 7 resident cats—feeding them, monitoring their behavior, and providing attention tailored to their unique personalities, which gave me wonderful experience.

In addition to short-term care like dog walking, home visits, and playtime, I can now host your furry friends in my own home. Whether they stay at my place or I visit yours, my goal is to make sure your pet feels loved and safe while you’re away.

I am highly respectful of your home, ensuring windows and doors are secure, and I use lights responsibly to simulate presence.

🔹 Vaccination Policy

For safety and hygiene reasons, I only work with fully vaccinated pets.
I treat every pet like a companion, not just a responsibility. I look forward to meeting your furry friend and giving them the care they deserve. I am generally available in the morning, afternoon, and early evening for dog walking and home visits. Since I focus on coming to your home, I can easily adapt my schedule to fit your pet's routine, offering walks (20–45 mins) or longer house-sitting stays to keep them company. I treat every pet like a companion and respect your home as if it were my own. During house sitting, I ensure windows and doors are secure and lights are used responsibly. I can also water plants and bring in the mail, ensuring your pet feels safe and loved in their own environment.

“We boarded our Samoyed girl with Ramón for the Easter holiday and couldn’t be happier. Ramon accepted the booking after kindly arranging a meet and greet. Ramon and Austin really listened to the care taking instructions and have Polar groomed perfectly. We will definitely come back in the future”
