Top cities for doggy day care in The Netherlands

For pet parents, one of the hardest things about going to work each day is wondering what your dog will get up to while you are gone. At Pawshake, we understand that dogs need activity and interaction during the day, so why not book your dog with one of our trusted sitters in Alphen aan den Rijn for a home day care service? You can drop your dog off at the sitter’s home on the way to work or organise with your local Alphen aan den Rijn Pawshake sitter to pick up and drop off your dog for you.

Pet day care is a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically active during the day so that you can come home to a happy, relaxed dog. Pawshake’s home day care service is great for young dogs who need constant supervision: puppy daycare allows your pup to maintain a consistent routine, which is important during the toilet training process. It’s also a great option for dogs who need extra care and attention, or those who are extra active.

Our sitters who offer home day care and puppy daycare services are more adaptable than your average big day care centre. Numbers are kept small and some Pawshake sitters will only take in one dog at a time. This means they can work around your timing and any special requirements your dog may have. So, let your four-legged best friend enjoy their day with a fun and loving Alphen aan den Rijn sitter who will shower them with love and dedicated attention. On top of that, you will also get photos and updates during the day so that you can follow your dog’s day care adventures!

Every day care booking also comes included with The Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer service support 7 days a week and more.

Mijn naam is Vince en ik heb meer dan tien jaar ervaring met het uitlaten, trainen en verzorgen van honden. Van jongs af aan ben ik omringd door dieren en daardoor heb ik geleerd hoe belangrijk geduld, structuur en liefde zijn in de omgang met hen. Voor mij gaat het niet alleen om beweging, maar vooral om het creëren van een veilige en fijne omgeving waarin iedere hond zich op zijn gemak voelt.

Elke hond is uniek en verdient persoonlijke aandacht. Ik pas mijn aanpak altijd aan: of het nu gaat om een energieke hond die graag lange wandelingen maakt, of een rustige hond die liever in zijn eigen tempo loopt. Daarnaast heb ik ervaring met gedragsproblemen, ben ik vertrouwd met hondentrainingstechnieken en kan ik zowel orale medicatie als andere medicatie toedienen. Ook ben ik in staat eerste hulp te verlenen en bied ik 24/7 toezicht indien gewenst.

Mijn motivatie om hondenoppas te zijn komt voort uit mijn grote passie voor dieren en het plezier dat ik haal uit hun gezelschap. Het geeft mij veel voldoening om honden blij te zien en hun baasjes een vertrouwd gevoel te geven. Betrouwbaarheid, verantwoordelijkheid en zorg staan bij mij altijd centraal. Alleen gevaccineerde huisdieren zijn welkom, zodat de veiligheid voorop blijft staan.

Kortom: bij mij kunt u rekenen op een ervaren hondenoppas die uw viervoeter met liefde, aandacht en professionaliteit verzorgt.

EN/NL are both perfectly fine when reaching out :)
Background
Hi! 
I am a 32 year old professional who works full time (from home) and an experienced pet owner and volunteer (stichting Wereldhonden) who has always had pets growing up. I am also currently the proud dog dad to Basil - a super friendly brown Lab. 
Through volunteer work I've got experience with boarding and lodging anxious/traumatised dogs and socialising them to life here as they go through the adoption process so feel free to ask more about that. Also quite some experience with training (puppy) dogs. 
Walks
I walk on average 5-6km per day with my own dog and we go out 4 times per day. 
2 walks are short walks around 30 minutes and 2 walks are longer usually between 60-90 minutes including some time in an off lead park to allow socialisation with other dogs. 
Walks always include an element of training (sit/stay/focus on walker, pull correction, sitting when waiting to cross the street etc) and play (fetch and play with other dogs). 
I have multiple (fenced) off lead fields near me within 10-15 minutes walk and also one off larger off lead park which isn't fenced.
I like to use on lead walk time to also do some light training (attention to walker, stopping before crossing, sit/stay etc)
Training
Having followed multiple basic and intermediate training courses with my own dog and as a volunteer foster dad for dogs acclimatising to NL from abroad I am happy to discuss how I could help in basic training while taking care of your pet
Home
I live in an apartment that is 80+ square metres with a lift and plenty of open space (including a balcony) with a park literally in front of my building. 
I don't have any housemates so it's just me, Basil (my brown Lab) and potentially your pet :)
I work full time but from home and have the flexibility to plan my day around walking and caring for my own dog.
Special needs
As mentioned through volunteering as a foster family I have experience with dogs with behavioural challenges and I am happy to discuss any special attention your furry friend may need. 
I am also comfortable and experienced in administering medication in multiple forms if need be. 
Other info
I have my own car so often take my own dog to the beach or other nature areas. I can also help with drop offs or pick ups if need be. 
Please note I do this as I am passionate about animals and enjoy their company. I have a dog already and also enjoy seeing him playing with others. It's therefore critical for me (and you) that there's a good click and we feel comfortable therefore I always meet my potential guests together with my dog to get to know each other and make sure we're a good match :)

Ik heb altijd huisdieren gehad en ben van jongs af aan opgegroeid met de zorg en verantwoordelijkheid die daarbij komen kijken. Dieren spelen een belangrijke rol in mijn leven en ik kan mij geen huis zonder dieren voorstellen. Op dit moment heb ik zelf een kat en een hond, die allebei zijn geadopteerd. Dit heeft mijn liefde en respect voor dieren alleen maar vergroot. Ik weet hoe belangrijk het is dat een dier zich veilig, gezien en vertrouwd voelt, vooral wanneer het baasje tijdelijk afwezig is.
Ik ben een liefdevol, geduldig en zorgzaam persoon en neem de tijd om ieder dier te leren kennen. Elk dier heeft zijn eigen karakter, gewoontes en behoeften, en daar stem ik mijn zorg zorgvuldig op af. Of het nu gaat om wandelen (in overleg) spelen, knuffelen, voeren of het bieden van rust en structuur: het welzijn van het dier staat bij mij altijd voorop. Ik vind het belangrijk dat dieren in hun eigen vertrouwde omgeving kunnen blijven, zodat stress zoveel mogelijk wordt voorkomen.
Met veel plezier en toewijding bied ik mijn diensten aan als katten- en hondenoppas. Ik zorg ervoor dat baasjes hun dier met een gerust hart kunnen achterlaten, wetende dat hun huisdier liefdevolle aandacht en goede verzorging krijgt.


Your dog will have a playful buddy too! Meet Pippi, my young and energetic maltipoo who absolutely loves making new friends. They’ll enjoy plenty of playtime, cuddles, and safe social interaction in a calm and caring environment.
Looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend!


Hi! I’m Bob, a pet lover based in Leiden, and I’d be happy to take care of your furry friend while you’re away.
Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own, animals have always been part of my life. I had a cat in the past, and for the last three years I’ve regularly been pet sitting dogs of all sizes for friends. Spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy — dogs especially have a special place in my heart, and they usually feel comfortable with me very quickly.
I live in a cozy apartment in Leiden, without a garden or balcony, but I’m lucky to be surrounded by beautiful canals and large green parks, perfect for long, relaxed walks. I have a calm and caring personality, but I also enjoy being active outdoors, so your dog will get both affection and proper exercise.
I work full time but mostly from home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention during the day. I’m mainly available on weekdays, and I make sure pets are never left alone for long periods.
I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and I’m comfortable with basic training and positive reinforcement. I’m good at setting gentle but clear boundaries, which helps dogs feel safe and relaxed. Of course, you’ll also receive regular photo updates, so you can travel with peace of mind.
I do pet sitting because I genuinely love animals and miss having one around. For me, it’s about creating meaningful, caring moments and making sure your pet feels at home, happy, and well looked after.
My routine will be determined on the dog's needs. If a dog walks 2 or 3 times a day I will be more than happy to do this.
I’d love to meet you and your pet, feel free to reach out anytime! 

Hoi!&nbsp;Ik ben Noam, 31 jaar en baasje van Stewie (keeshondje) en Morty (kat) samen met mijn vriendin. Ik heb in het verleden altijd moeite gehad een oppas te vinden voor Stewie en vond het altijd vreselijk om hem lang alleen te laten. Nu werk ik vaker thuis en wil ik graag andere baasjes helpen die niet altijd de tijd hebben om hun hondje uit te laten overdag. Ik heb zelf mijn hele leven hondjes gehad en ook op meerdere honden gepast gedurende uren, dagen en ook weken. Stewie is een makkelijke hond en gaat goed samen met andere honden. Ik heb zelf een ruime auto en Stews en ik houden van lange wandelingen variërend tussen een half tot wel 3 uur. Uiteraard hangt dit ook af van de leeftijd en fitness van jouw hondje!&nbsp;Verder ben ik flexibel qua dagen en tijden en is veel in overleg mogelijk. Ik doe het niet voor het geld maar omdat ik het met meer diertjes in huis gezellig vindt en zo kan voorkomen dat je beste maatje onnodig alleen thuis zit.&nbsp;Past mijn profiel bij jou hondje? Neem dan contact op voor een kennismaking!&nbsp;

As a dedicated animal lover with five dogs of my own, I have cultivated a deep understanding and appreciation for the canine species. My passion for pets extends beyond my personal experiences; I have also invested in formal education to enhance my knowledge and skills.
I have completed an online course in Animal Behavior and Welfare from the prestigious University of Edinburgh. This course has equipped me with valuable insights into canine psychology, behaviour, and well-being. Additionally, my personal experiences have allowed me to develop a keen ability to read dogs' facial expressions and understand their underlying emotions. This skill, combined with knowledge of basic dog training techniques and behaviour analysis, enables me to provide tailored care and attention to each pet.
Throughout my life, I have had the privilege of taming and training numerous dogs. These experiences have honed my ability to establish positive relationships with animals and guide them towards desired behaviours. My commitment to the human-animal bond is further exemplified by my published article on the subject in an international journal.
I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional pet care services. Whether it's walking, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I am dedicated to ensuring the well-being and happiness of every animal entrusted to my care.


Hoihoi!&nbsp;

Mijn naam is Mila ik ben 17 jaar en dieren zijn altijd een grote passie van mij geweest. Hoewel ik zelf geen huisdieren heb, werk ik dagelijks met honden in een hondendagopvang en hondenhotel. Hierdoor heb ik veel ervaring opgedaan met honden van verschillende leeftijden, rassen en karakters. Ik ben gewend om meerdere honden tegelijk te verzorgen en ervoor te zorgen dat ze zich veilig en op hun gemak voelen.

Ik bied liefdevolle en betrouwbare zorg aan wanneer jij er even niet kunt zijn. Denk aan honden uitlaten, oppassen aan huis en huisbezoeken. Uiteraard zorg ik ook voor vers water, eten, speeltijd en vooral veel aandacht en knuffels als jouw dier dat fijn vindt. Ik kan kleine wandelingen doen en lange wandelingen waar zelf de voorkeur ligt! In de ochtend namiddag en avond ben ik beschikbaar!

Ik vind het belangrijk dat baasjes hun huisdier met een gerust hart kunnen achterlaten. Daarom ga ik zorgvuldig, geduldig en verantwoordelijk te werk. Uiteraard houd ik je op de hoogte met berichtjes en foto’s, zodat je weet hoe het met jouw huisdier gaat.

Ik kijk ernaar uit om jou en jouw trouwe viervoeter te ontmoeten en met veel liefde voor hem of haar te zorgen! 

Hi, I'm Leah, a Paramedic and new to the Netherlands :)
I love animals, and have 3 of my own cats at home. I volunteer at a local shelter here in Leiden and have plenty of experience with medication management and first aid, if needed. I'd love to help you out with all your pets' needs or simply look after them whilst you are away! I work from home part-time only 2 days a week, so I'm very flexible to attend most days and evenings. I make sure to send regular photos and videos to you of your furry friends, spend time playing with them if they like this, and ensure their everyday needs are met.I have over 10 years of pet-sitting experience in the UK and am using pawshake to build a client base here int he Netherlands! I already have 5 clients through other recommendations - please see some of their reviews below: "Leah was absolutely fantastic with our pets. From the first meeting, it was obvious that she genuinely loves animals and our pets took to her straight away. She kept us updated throughout our trip with lovely photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Everything was exactly as we left it when we came home, and our pets were happy, relaxed and clearly very well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Leah again!" "We were a little nervous about leaving our pets while we went away. We received regular updates and photos, and it was lovely to see how happy they were"Services I offer:- Home visits of up to 30 minutes (once or twice a day) ️. This includes food, medication, litter trays and some quality time with your pets. I will also water plants and collect packages for you if needed.- Dog walking ‍🦺. Your dog will receive at least a 30 minute walk (usually longer). I can do this once or twice a day.&nbsp;- House sitting . I come to your home to spend time with your pets for longer periods. (Please note, the €25 option does not include overnight stays, I come during the daytime and work from your home so that I am with your pets through the day but I return to my own place in the evening/overnight. For overnight stays there is an extra charge and costs €35 per day.)- Pet hotel . You can bring your pets to my home (we have a large house in valkenburg with a garden and run a cat 'hotel' and doggy daycare style accommodation). Here the cats would have their own room away from my own pets, and any dogs would have access to the garden for most of the day. Your pets will need to be de-flea and de-wormed with no conditions that may be contagious (FiV, FLeu, e.t.c) to qualify for this service.&nbsp; Please note - dog walking is a separate service, and not included as standard in the home visit, pet hotel and house sitting options. If you have a dog as part of your family, please make sure to book walking as an addition if you require it. Thanks! 
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out :) you're welcome to book me through this platform or directly on +447950581593. I always advise a meet and greet first with any petsitter to ensure you are happy with their services and your pets get a chance to interact with us before your departure ️
I'm looking forward to hearing from you!


I am a caring and reliable pet sitter with two years of experience looking after pets in The Hague. I originally started pet sitting because I missed my own dog back in South Africa and wanted to spend time with animals again. What began as something personal quickly became a true passion, and I loved building trust with both pets and their owners.
I have experience looking after both puppies and larger dogs, often staying in their homes for full days to keep them comfortable in their own environment. A typical day with me includes walks, feeding, playtime, and, of course, plenty of cuddles and attention. I always adapt to each pet’s routine and energy level - whether that means long, active walks for energetic dogs or a calm, gentle approach for shy or more anxious pets. I take the time to build trust so every pet feels safe and relaxed.
I now live in Waddinxveen and am excited to start pet sitting again. I am patient, responsible, and attentive, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am happy to follow specific routines, give updates, and ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved. As safety for the pets is our biggest priority, we only take vaccinated animals into our home. 

I'm originally from Los Angeles and studied at the University of Washington in Seattle. Growing up, I had a wonderful dog who was an important part of my life. I was responsible for her daily care, including feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure she always felt happy and loved.
When I moved away for college, I missed having a dog around, so I began walking dogs through Wag in Seattle. It was a great way to spend time with animals while helping busy pet owners, and it confirmed how much I enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities.
In June 2025, I moved to the Netherlands and am excited to continue offering dog walking and pet care here. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I always strive to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, active play, or simply some companionship, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for.
I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
