Hi there! My name is Lea, and I am 27 years old, currently doing my Research Master in Psychology in Amsterdam. I'm a friendly and experienced petsitter who truly adores animals. Growing up with dogs, I've developed a deep connection and understanding of them. Whether it's keeping dogs happy, cozy, or simply having fun, I've got it covered. I'm skilled at taking care of all kinds of dogs, from little puppies to senior dogs.
I take my role seriously and understand the importance of trust. When pet owners entrust me with their furry family members, I make it a top priority to provide exceptional care and attention. Safety and well-being are always my main concern.
Outdoor adventures are a big part of my petsitting routine. I love going for walks and exploring nature, and your pets will love it too! But it's not just dogs I'm great with – I've also taken care of cats and bunnies, making sure they're comfortable and content.
Choosing me as your petsitter means choosing reliability and compassion. Your pets will be in caring hands, and I'm excited to create wonderful memories together!
Please do not hesitate to contact me for an interview!:) I am looking forward to meeting your pet.


As a passionate pet lover, my motivation to be a pet sitter is deeply rooted in the joy and companionship that animals being to our lives. I understand that pets are more than just animals; they are cherished family members, and I'm dedicated to providing them with the love and care they deserve.
I currently own two dogs as you can see in the photos that I have uploaded: they are Honey and Trudi
My approach to pet sitting is based on trust, reliability, and genuine affection for animals. I pride myself on creating a stress-free environment where your pets can thrive and feel at ease. From daily walks and playtime to feeding and cuddles, I tailor my services to meet the specific needs of your beloved pets.

I guarantee services as pet walking, pet sitting at the owner's house, both stay during the night as well as during the day!

Choosing me as your pet sitter means choosing a dedicated caregiver who will treat your four-legged family members as if they were my own. I look forward to building lasting bonds with both you and your pets!

Dogs love me and I love them! 
I've taken care of my friends and neighbours dogs for the past 10 years and 5 years ago I got my own French Bulldog. I’ve had her since she was a puppy and she is very healthy and well. She does get seasonal allergies sometimes so I have experience giving medication and caring for her skin. I also have experience with dogs going through surgery and can care for sick or recovering dogs. I’m a very playful person with high energy but I also know how to care for timid dogs who need calm energy and reassurance. I love long walks in the park but can adjust walks to your dogs needs and size. I’m firm so can handle most challenging behaviour so your dog’s routine and discipline won’t change around me. I stick to the rules you set! I’m big on energy so even though I’m firm I’ll make sure your dog feels all the love.
I’m a freelance writer who mostly works from home so my schedule is flexible. I have an e-bike so can get to you very quickly and take care of your pet at your home or walk them when you need. I am available mostly during the week however I can do weekends sometimes so feel free to make a request.
I can walk your dog alone or I can walk your dog with mine if your dog prefers company (she’s friendly). I don’t sit dogs at my home as my Frenchie is territorial but I can always come to your place alone to walk or dog sit. I’ll send you update photos during the walk or dog sit and update you straight away if anything needs your urgent attention. You can always reach me on WhatsApp or call me. Providing me with your dogs needs, diet, habits and routine upfront will help me to set up a great experience for them.

Hi, I'm Federica Olivieri, a 32 years old woman who has just settled in Amsterdam. I grew up in Italy (in a very peaceful place in Tuscany) with a lot of animals, and I've always had pets at home. I moved to Amsterdam four months ago, and in the place I'm currently living in I'm not allowed to have pets and....... You know what? I really miss them! So maybe it would be great to combine pleasure and a little work. I would love to walk dogs (small and medium-size only, 'cause I cannot handle a too big dog) or to look after dogs, cats or bunnies. What about me? I'm a very serious and responsible person, but I'm funny and playful too, so I would love to play with your pets. I also like to take long walks in the nature, so I could walk dogs in parks or in the surroundings. As said, I cannot take pets to my place, but I would be happy to visit them at your place or to sit them if you need to go out. I have experience with my pets (dogs, cats, bunnies) and also with others', since in Italy I used to take care of my friends' when they had to go out or on a vacation. I hope to hear from you soon!


Hello! My name is Natália but you can call me Nati for short. 
I'm a Brazilian creative copywriter and new to Amsterdam. I have 12+ years of experience taking care of pets. I can easily keep your training techniques while you are away and deal with anxious animals really well. Also I have a good experience with rescue pets and the ones that need that extra attention, as well as pets that need oral or topical medication and I love to take care of them in all ages. We can meet at your house and I can spend some time with your pet while you are out or I can get your pet to take some walks, you decide! 
I have two dogs myself — one is 12 years old and the other is 3 years old. They are litteraly everything to me and both came with me all the way from Brazil to the Netherlands to start a whole new life! 
My older dog Chocolate struggles a lot with alergies and the younger one Pigo has very bad anxiety as he was traumatized by the time he lived in the streets until we rescued and gave him a home and also has been professional trained for some time now. So I have a lot of experience with older pets that need medication and special care as well as younger and more energetic pets that are working on professional training.
I also speak English and Portuguese if needed. And you can always count on me to take care of your babies as if they were mine.
Here are some details about my services:
 I'm usually available during the day (mornings + afternoons) but we can always discuss
 I offer home visits from 1 to 5 hours long
And I also offer dog walks! About how long they can be and where can I go with your pet is totally negociable so we can make things more comfortable for you dog.
Feel free to contact me anytime! I'll be thrilled to meet and spend some good times with your best friend. 
Thank you,
Nati.

I've been an affectionate cat nanny and guardian of my clients' homes in Amsterdam since 2019. I send you detailed daily updates with photos and short videos via WhatsApp. Your cat's WhatsApp group can involve you alone or it can include anyone you want (your partner, your kids, your cat-loving friend).I grew up in Quebec, Canada where I worked extensively with dogs and horses. My experience with cats began as an adult. I have had a few different cats as my dear companions over the years and I have fostered cats in need when I have been between cats. These days I have one dear cat of my own at home and many much-loved cats throughout my catchment area that I am nanny to. I guess that I'm a full-blown cat lady, embracing the purr.Due to high demand, I offer one visit per day. But I can recommend a reliable automatic feeder if you would like two feeding times per day.Play time, cuddle time, and just normal hanging out is important for cats. I typically spend 30-40 minutes in your home. This allows for chores to be completed, play time, sing-alongs, vital conversation about world events, and cuddle time (if your cat is a cuddler).I water your plants and bring in your post, too.My catchment area is Oud Zuid and the Apollolaan / Minervaplein buurt encompassing the Olympiaplein. If you want a caring and careful nanny for your fur monsters and a conscientious daily guardian for your home, please contact me.

Hi there! I’m Brigid and am originally from a small farm in New Zealand where I have grown up with a huge love of animals all my life. I am an experienced and trained dog-walker with previous paw friends in London and Leiden where I have also looked after many lovely cats on a regular basis. After first moving from New Zealand to London in 2017, I have now lived in the Netherlands for 2.5 years, previously in Leiden and now based in Amsterdam where I live on my own in an apartment - sadly no space for pets of my own!I work full time (currently from home 100% of the time, and otherwise 2-3 days per week from home) as a lawyer and with a flexible schedule, have good availability to spend with pets who need a play and a walk for 30 mins or an hour at a time, helping with mealtimes, or just some cuddles and company during the day at your home. I have owned labradors but am experienced with dogs of all breeds, shapes and sizes - and love them all! - and am comfortable and patient with dogs who have a little anxiety or extra challenges. I am also trained and experienced in administering oral and injected medications in both cats, dogs and rabbits. I can't wait to get to know you and your furry friends!

Hello pet owner,
Nice to e-meet you! 

I'm Mara, 27 and I live in De Pijp. I am currently working on opening my own business &amp; having a few side hustles. 

Availability:
I am available for dog walks and petsitting, for any cute animals you might need help with. I’m flexible with timing, as long as it’s not too far from De Pijp. 

I can swing by to pick up your dog or drop them off wherever works for you. I also live between Sarphatipark &amp; Oosterpark, where dogs are allowed off-leash in some areas, if that's something you &amp; your dog are comfortable with. 

I am also happy to visit your pet at your house, feed them and keep them company as it’s needed.
I can take your pet into my house as well if that's something you'd like, but I would need to discuss this matter with my roommate.

Experience: 
I have a lot of experience with cats &amp; catsitting, as I have been living with a cat in the house pretty much all my life. I ocasionally dog sit my friend’s dogs at their houses and love taking them for walks in the park nearby.&nbsp;

Let's connect and would love to meet you and your pet! :)

Ik ben een jonge vrouw en werk hybride bij de lokale overheid. Ik woon in een studio appartement en ben doel op katten en honden! Mijn vrienden en vriendinnen hebben veel een huisdier. In mijn kleine appartement vind ik dat toch niet helemaal fijn voor het beestje, maar pas ik wel graag op. Of het kroelen of wandelen met de hond is, of de kat een aai over z'n bol en even in het huis aanwezig zijn is: ik vind het allemaal leuk 🫶🏻
Zelf ben ik ook opgegroeid met hond en kat (en kippen en zelfs ganzen!), dus dieren zijn altijd onderdeel geweest in mijn leven. Persoonlijk reis ik wel af en toe, dat buiten de kleine ruimte, heeft me dat ook weerhouden om nu te committen aan een huisdier. Ik in een notendop: sociaal, zachtaardig en energiek! 
Ik ben meestal op vaste dagen thuis, vaak maan- en woensdagen en ben dan beschikbaar in de ochtend en middag. Mocht het baasje af en toe 's avonds een oppas nodig hebben is dat te bespreken. Ik kan de hond uit laten, spelen en te eten geven. Voor katten geldt dat ik kan oppassen en eten kan geven. Ik heb geen ervaring met dieren met speciale behoeften. 
Mocht ik op huisbezoek gaan blijf ik ongeveer een uur bij een kat/hond inclusief uitlaten. Langer is ook bespreekbaar. Ik ben tevens bereid post te verzamelen of water te geven. Ik vind het fijn als het baasje bereikbaar is de eerste keren dat ik op huis bezoek ga - dit ivm eventuele vragen over het huisdier, het huis en binnenkomen.
Ik zou zeggen dat ik zo'n 5 jaar, al dan niet meer met de kat en hond in huis, heb met het actief passen op huisdieren. Het fijnst zou ik vinden bij mij in de buurt, dan kan ik het ook makkelijk combineren met werk.
