Hondenopvang in Velsen

Over: Ik heb als kind zelf altijd honden gehad en ze ook altijd uitgelaten en veel met ze geknuffeld en gespeeld. Zelf hebben wij een chihuahua gehad die hebben we helaas moeten laten inslapen. Maar de liefde voor honden is er nog steeds mijn kindjes zijn ook gek op dieren. Ik werk in de zorg als zzp’er maar werk nooit hele lange uren achter elkaar kom tussen door altijd naar huis. Daarom hoeft de hond nooit langer dan 4 uurtjes alleen te zijn. De kindjes vinden het ook leuk om te helpen met het uitlaten en het borstelen van de hond Ik heb een omheinde Thuin dus de hond kan niet weg lopen. De hond mag bij ons op de bank liggen en op bed liggen

Over: Mijn ouders hebben altijd katten gehad. Daarnaast liet ik als jong meisje, vaak de honden in de buurt uit. Op latere leeftijd werden dat vaste adressen waarbij ik de huissleutel kreeg. Tijdens covid heb ik gewerkt als hondenuitlater. Mijn vriend en ik zouden graag een huisdier nemen, maar houden ook nog te veel van reizen. Daarom zouden we het heel leuk vinden om een dag/periode op jullie dier te passen. Ik werk op freelance basis en ben daarom erg flexibel in het indelen van mijn eigen tijd. Daarnaast kan ik veel werk, gewoon thuis doen. Wel zo gezellig. We wonen in een appartement met een balkon. Je bent vanaf hier, zo in het Rembrandtpark of het Vondelpark voor een goede wandeling. Ik hou van buiten zijn, loop zelf geregeld een rondje en hou van spelen en knuffelen met de dieren.

“I was very happy with Klaudia as a dogsitter. She went on long walks with Kiwi and regularly sent me updates and photos, which made me feel very comfortable and reassured. Klaudia is very kind, reliable, and communication with her was excellent from the start. Kiwi felt very comfortable with her, was calm and relaxed in the evening, and slept really well. I would book Klaudia again anytime and can highly recommend her 🐶💛”

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: Ik kan erg goed omgaan met dieren, omdat ik zelf al heel mijn leven huisdieren heb.
Op dit moment heb ik drie katten en een vogel, maar vroeger ook cavia’s en konijnen gehad. Honden heb ik nu zelf niet, maar in de toekomst zou ik graag wel een hond willen. Ik heb daarentegen wel ervaring met het uitlaten en spelen met honden, omdat vrienden en familie wel honden hebben. Of het nu gaat om katten knuffelen, een vogel verzorgen of met een hond wandelen, ik doe het allemaal graag met plezier en liefde. Uw huisdier is in goede handen bij mij. Ik heb op dit moment werk, maar ik ben erg goed in plannen! Samen kunnen we vast een geschikt moment vinden voor één van mijn aangeboden services. Ik heb zelf 3 katten en een vogel. Ik heb geen hond, maar ik heb wel ervaring met het uitlaten en spelen met honden. Ik ben erg zorgzaam en kan goed opletten.

Over: We are new to this website, but we have done a lot of petsitting for our families and friends in the past, especially cats and dogs. We also have been using a different platform where we do house and pet sitting abroad. We would diligently follow instructions where pet behaviour, diet, characteristics, medication, rules, training and routines are concerned. We would send daily updates, with photos and videos, to let you know how things are going :) We would welcome the opportunity to chat with you in person, via WhatsApp or Zoom. We understand that trusting strangers to look after your much loved pets can be rather daunting, therefore we hope that by communicating with us, any existing worries or doubts can be eliminated :) Because we both mostly work from home and have flexible schedules, pet care fits easily into our daily routine. One of us is almost always at home, so pets are rarely left alone. We plan our days around feeding times, walks, playtime, and rest, and we can easily adapt to special needs, medication, or extra attention when required. We provide a calm, safe, and loving home where pets can follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, play, and rest. We give plenty of attention while respecting each pet’s personality, and because we’re often at home, pets are rarely left alone. We also send regular updates with photos and messages.

Over: Hi! My name is Pien and I have been around dogs for most of my life. When I was 3 years old, my family got our Dalmatian, Bisou, who was part of our family for 13 wonderful years. I currently also spend a lot of time caring for Pongo, a dog I regularly look after and consider part of my family. Through the years I have gained experience with feeding, walking, playing, providing companionship, and understanding the individual needs of dogs. I am responsible, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I will always care for your pet as if they were my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Depending on my work shifts, I am available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I love spending time outdoors, so dogs will always get the exercise, playtime, and attention they need. I have been around dogs for most of my life. My childhood Dalmatian, Bisou, was part of our family for 13 years, and I now regularly care for Pongo, who feels like part of my family as well. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away.

“Watson and Enola had the best time with their second Mommy (Anastasia)! They must have had a total blast as they are all their food and went to bed immediately! Thank you Anastasia for always giving the greatest care! ❤️”

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: “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: Hi! I’m Zuza - a software developer in my 30s, working from home most of the week, which gives me lots of flexibility and time to look after pets 🐾. Animals and nature have always been a huge passion of mine - I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs & cats, as well as birds, rabbits, and guinea pigs at times, and now share my home in Haarlem with two lovely rescue cats. As a sitter, I’m responsible, adaptable, and attentive to the different needs and personalities pets can have 🐶🐱. I’ll make sure your companion feels safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated with daily pictures and messages 📸. Your pet’s well-being will always be my priority! I work from home most of the week, so I have plenty of time and flexibility for pet care 🐾. I usually go into the office only twice a week (typically Wednesdays and Thursdays), but even that schedule can be adapted if needed. This means I’m around and available to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to keep a safe and pet-proofed environment, especially for indoor-only animals. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll always respect your space and follow the routines that keep your pet happy and healthy. I’ll strictly stick to any feeding or medication schedules you set out, and when it comes to dogs, I’ll carefully follow your instructions on how to handle them in public to make sure they’re safe and comfortable on every walk 🐕. Trust and consistency are key, and I’ll make sure your pet feels secure while you’re away.

“Took great care of my terrier while the family explored Montréal on our road trip sending lots of pics and keeping him away from the overconfident squirrels in the park nearby”

Over: have a deep connection with animals, having lived with my own cat for 3 years. While I currently volunteer at a local cat café, I am equally passionate about dogs and love providing engaging walks. I am experienced in administering oral medication and can help with basic training reinforcement during walks. 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.

“Excellent sitter !”

Over: Hallo daar, ik ben Max! Ik heb een enorme liefde voor honden, maar ik heb helaas (nog) nooit zelf een hond gehad. Mijn ouders vonden dat namelijk zielig omdat we in de binnenstad van Utrecht woonden, wat ik altijd erg moeilijk vond om te horen maar wel erg mee eens ben. In de zomer van 2021 heb ik erg getwijfeld om zelf een hond te nemen, maar ik heb toch besloten dit uit te stellen. Daarom pas ik nu graag op uw hond! Mijn vader is in 2019 verhuisd naar Spanje en heeft tegenwoordig 3 honden (bordercolie/vuilnisbak), waarvan er eentje 6 puppy's kreeg (dus 9 honden in totaal). Ik heb hier 5 maanden lang op gepast toen mijn vader lichamelijke klachten had, wat hem er van weerhield om voor de honden te zorgen. Dat betekend uitlaten, eten geven, trucjes leren en vooral heel veel spelen! Ik doe niks liever dan lekker lange stukken wandelen met een leuke, lieve en vrolijke hond. Ik hoor graag van jullie! Aangezien ik aan het studeren ben, varieert de mogelijkheid waarop ik op honden kan passen nogal per periode. Wel ben ik sowieso elke ochtend & avond beschikbaar en afhankelijk van mijn rooster ook volledige dagen. Als u mij een bericht stuurt kunnen we samen kijken wat er op dat moment mogelijk is qua oppassen. Ik heb zelf geen tuin dus de hond zal samen met mij in de woonkamer zitten, die ik deel met 3 andere dierenliefhebbers. Omdat wij geen grote tuin hebben en op de eerste verdieping wonen is het maximum aantal honden voor logeren 2. Ik kan wel meer honden uitlaten en thuis oppassen op meer honden vind ik ook geen probleem. Ik wandel zelf zonder hond al erg veel, maar met hond wordt er minimaal 3x op een dag, lekker door de uiterwaarden heen. Meestal komt dit neer op een korte wandeling in de ochtend, een lange wandeling uur in de middag, een halfuur/uur na het eten en nog een klein wandelingetje voor he slapen gaan. Ik vind het zelf ook erg leuk om te fietsen met een hond naast mij, maar niet elke hond is hier voor getraind.

“Picked up a very happy puppy. He seemed like he had a great time with very sweet and caring people. Thank you”

Over: Your dog or cat will be in safe, loving hands and get all my attention. I'm Sarah and I'm from France. I live in a quiet flat in Haarlem without kids or other pets, so it’s a calm space where your pet can feel relaxed and at home. I’ve been around animals my whole life and have looked after dogs and cats since I was a kid. Building trust with them means a lot to me, and I know it takes time, patience, and consistency. I really enjoy hanging out with animals playing, cuddling, going for walks, and making sure they feel happy and safe. I stick to the same rules and routines you’ve set, so your pet stays comfortable and everything feels familiar. Dogs and cats need someone they can trust and someone you can trust too. I’d love to be that person for you and your furry friend. I work part-time in a restaurant and rarely after 3pm. So I have a lot of time to take care of your dog or cat. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in their familiar environment, I always focus on making them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. In my home, I create a calm and cozy space with no other pets or children, so your dog gets my full attention. I stick closely to the routine you’ve shared whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, playtime, or rest so your pet feels right at home. If I’m in your home, I’m respectful of your space and make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions carefully, keep things clean and tidy, and send regular updates so you know how your furry friend is doing. No matter where I care for them, I treat every pet like my own with patience and affection.
