Over: I’m a highly experienced dog owner with 9 years of hands-on care, having raised my dog from puppy to adulthood. I understand energetic, intelligent dogs well and provide consistent, attentive care. I work from home, so dogs are rarely left alone and get plenty of supervision and interaction throughout the day. We live in a house with a garden, offering space to play and relax safely. My household includes two children on a part-time basis, both familiar and comfortable with dogs, creating a calm and social environment for any visiting pet. I'm working from home and can take care of your pet based on it's needs. I'm walking my dog twice a day for roughly 1 - 1,5 hours but I'm very flexible when it comes to my work schedule and walking times. I have a fenced yard and live in a house. My dog Milo is very friendly and gets along with almost all dogs. There are nice parks nearby to provide long walks (Burgermeester park, Jagersveld, Twiske). I am comfortable to give medicine to your dog. I consider myself a very experienced dog owner.

“Marcel is heel betrouwbaar en was ontzettend lief met onze Labrador. Caruso is een sterke hond die iemand met ervaring nodig heeft, en dat ging bij Marcel helemaal goed. We hebben ook fijne tips uitgewisseld en de communicatie met hem was uitstekend. 🦮”

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.

These qualities and the services I offer ensure that pet owners can trust me with their beloved pets. I prioritize their happiness and health, taking care of them with love and dedication. I work from home, so I can give dogs plenty of attention. I take Nina out in the morning (9–10 AM), again around 1–2 PM for a quick bathroom break, and we enjoy a long evening walk in the park. This routine keeps pets happy, active, and loved. I have a friendly husky, Nina, who loves meeting new dogs. I organize a short meetup in the park so dogs can get to know each other. Nina has welcomed many dog guests and enjoys the social time, making every visit fun and safe.

“Amanda and her partner Marinna are fantastic. They took such great care of Charlie while we were away for 5 nights. They kept us updated with photos, and we could see that Charlie felt really comfortable with them. Charlie is reactive toward intact male dogs which can sometimes worry us when he is with new sitters. However, Amanda and Marinna assured us that they are familiar with reactivity, and they indeed seemed to manage just fine. Knowing he was in good hands made our vacation even more enjoyable 🙂 Thank you!!”

“Mariia was incredibly kind and made my cat feel truly welcome and, most importantly, comfortable. The daily pictures and updates gave me real peace of mind and helped me stay calm, knowing my cat was in good hands. I’m absolutely sure she enjoyed her time there, she didn’t even want to leave 😂 recommended!”

“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.”

“Cong is an absolute sweetheart and very caring! I 100% trust her looking after my dog. She sent many updates when I was away and I could see that my blind rescue was so comfortable, happy, and having a blast with her. I highly recommend booking with Cong, and will book her again.”

Over: Al mijn hele leven heb ik een grote liefde voor dieren. Als kind paste ik al op de huisdieren van anderen tot we thuis een eigen hond als pup kregen. Mijn passie voor honden groeide en ik ben opleidingen over hondengedrag gaan volgen. Later heb ik in een hondenopvang en een hondenuitlaat gewerkt waar ik enorm van genoot. Nu hebben we regelmatig vakantie oppashondjes bij ons thuis maar we zouden dit graag nog vaker doen! Mijn dochters hebben een grote liefde voor katten. Ze aaien het liefst elke kat die ze buiten tegenkomen. Door hun is mijn liefde voor katten ook ontstaan. Veel mensen in onze omgeving (buren, vrienden, opa en oma) hebben katten en daar passen wij ook regelmatig op. Op donderdag en vrijdag werken mijn man en ik allebei waardoor uw huisdier misschien iets langer alleen thuis is (max 4 uur) De rest van de dagen is er altijd een van ons thuis. Uw huisdier wordt met veel liefde en aandacht verzorgd. Onze dochters zijn heel zachtaardig met dieren en hebben duidelijke regels rondom dieren waar respect voor hun grenzen bovenaan staan. Het is belangrijk dat uw huisdier comfortabel is bij kinderen en daar geen stress van krijgt. Zowel voor uw dier als de kids. We hebben een klein tuintje, omheind waar we alleen zomers zitten.

Over: I have grown up with dogs. Since i was 8 years old i started taking care of our family dog. Because of him i have experience in senior care. He was sick and is not around us anymore for 2 years now. Now we got a puppy of 5 monts, a belgian malinois. Because of him i also have experience in puppy care and training. A belgian malinios needs consistency and a lot of exercise. I have trained him a lot and love going on long walks with him and seeing him enjoy it. When i got time i give him all of it, because thats what our dogs wait for all day, too spend time with us. We also got 2 cats of 2 and 3 years old. I currently work parttime. My familypets always get love and i got some more for yours. I like to go on a walk by myself, so with a walkmate i would love to go! I am very patient for your pets. If you tell me exactly what you do, i will follow the rules. Mostly dogs need consistency. I can send photos, thats a small gesture that can make your day better at work🤗

Over: I don't remember when I didn't have dogs, they are my faithful companions since I was born. I had small, medium-sized dogs and now with my family we have a giant German shepherd! Now that I live in Amsterdam and I miss my puppy I wish I could give my love to other puppies! I am loving and attentive to the needs of a dog, I love taking long walks. I can't wait to meet your pets ! :) I have a full time job with some days of working from home, and on friday i finish at 4. I come home very early after work. And in any case I'm flexible if needed. I live in the middle of Westerpark so in a really green and dog friendly place. I can bring the dog to have walks really often.

“Shuhan is a very professional pet sitter with many experiences with both cats and dogs. My cutie had very wonderful time with her for almost 20 days. She is careful and thoughtful of your pets. Highlight recommended!”

“Paulien is a very reliable dog sitter! Our dog quickly felt at home with her. Paulien sent us photos, videos and updates every day!! Paulien paid attention to the dog's needs and easily managed to find an approach to her. Our dog seemed to have a really good vacation with Paulien and stilll visibly treasures those memories ☺️”

“We made the right choice by leaving Smoky with Aneli — she is attentive and truly loves animals 🥹. Smoky had a wonderful week with her, and Aneli sent us photos every day, which made us feel at ease about Smoky. Thank you again for your care ❤️”

Over: I have grown up with pets my whole life! Lots of experience with dogs, cats & more. Previously fostered dogs in Ireland (4 beautiful German shepherds) I work full time in Amsterdam, available for dog walking daily & pet sitting visits in house very flexible hours also daily, depending on when needed of course. I have cared for a friends kitten in my own home, keeping him indoors. I have also cared for neighbors and friends doing house visits!

“Lada was great, she took care of my dog for nearly a week and did a fab job, I was showered with constant updates and returned to my dog being absolutely in love with her -- which speaks to the level of her dedication and love for dogs.”

Over: I bring a calm presence, genuine curiosity, and strong intuition that help animals feel safe and seen. I treat every pet as an individual and adjust to their unique needs and personality—whether that means playful energy, training patience, or simply being present and calm. I’ve cared for up to three dogs at the same time, each with their own challenges and special needs. This experience has taught me how to stay focused, balanced, and responsive in dynamic situations. I also have experience with administering medication and handling pets who require extra attention. I’m physically active and happy to take long walks or go for runs with high-energy dogs. At the same time, I’m attentive and gentle with older pets who need a slower pace and more care. My background as a massage therapist and actor has sharpened my sensitivity to body language and emotional cues, which helps me connect deeply with animals. I’m flexible, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Looking forward to hearing from you! Although I currently work full-time during the day, I’m available for pet care in the early mornings, evenings, and overnight. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, or stays outside regular office hours. I live in Wormerveer. I always take great care to ensure a safe and calm environment, whether I'm in your home or mine. I pay close attention to each pet’s body language and energy, and adapt my approach to keep them relaxed and secure. I build trust gradually and connect both with pets and owners on a personal level, so everyone feels at ease.

“In one word: Amazing! Our little dog Nitro had a fantastic stay at Tripti’s during our X-mas holiday abroad. Tripti informed us daily with several video’s and photos so we could see how Nitro was doing. Nitro was cuttled lots and was spoiled with homemade food, lovely walks and snacks. Thank you Tripti for his wonderful stay. You really took away our worries of leaving him behind as Nitro doesn’t like to travel. Like Nitro, we also had a great holiday, thanks to you. Next time we will definitely call you again. You are the best! ❤️”
