Top cities for house sitting in The Netherlands

Are you going away but have a pet that prefers to stay in their own environment? Or perhaps you have a range of different animals and it’s not practical for you to organise for them to stay in different places? Then you might want to consider finding a Pawshake house sitter to come and stay at your Laren home while you are away.

House sitting is a convenient and affordable option when you have multiple pets and also want your house to be securely looked after while you are away. Many of our pet sitters have very reasonable house sitting rates because they enjoy staying and exploring different local neighbourhoods like Laren.

At Pawshake, we understand that trusting your home to a stranger can be a little daunting. So we’ve done all the hard work to ensure that your Pawshake house sitter is trustworthy and reliable. All our pet sitter profiles are checked individually by our dedicated trust and safety team and some house sitters also have their own police checks which they can share with you.

The best thing about engaging a Pawshake verified house sitter is that you can relax knowing that on top of being covered by The Pawshake Guarantee which includes veterinary coverage, so your pets are being cared for in a familiar environment and your Laren home is also being looked after as well. 

In addition to looking after your pets, most of our house sitters will happily help you by collecting your mail, taking out the bins, and watering your plants. Just make sure you discuss all your requirements with your chosen house sitter prior to booking.

Hello pet owners! My name is Matilde, I am 22 and I am from Italy. I have been living in the Netherlands for the past 4 years, first in Maastricht as a Bachelor's student and now in Utrecht where I am completing my Master's degree! Throughout my entire life, I have always been used to living with cats! Back home in Italy, my first pet ever was Gina, a crazy (and not so cuddly) beautiful cat which unfortunately passed away one year ago. Nevertheless, I brought my love for cats all the way here to the Netherlands as where I am currrently living, I am also looking after the owners' cat, Norbert! And, now, everytime I go back home to Italy, I go home two a mom and son cat that my mum rescued at the beginning of September! I do not have any prior experience as a petsitter, however, I am sure my love for cats and dogs (and also other animals) is a great start!&nbsp;
I am offering sercive only at the pet(s) owner's home as I am currently living with a cat who does not really like other pets! I am available all days of the week - morning, afternoon, and evening alike - excpet Wednesday afternoon.&nbsp;
About my services: I can play with the pets, give them food and water, and walk them when necessary. I cannot administer medication and/or training.&nbsp;
For home visits (1/2 times a day or overnight stay): I can stay for a total of 2-3 hours with the pets during the home visist. I can also offer overnight stay for how long as it is necessary! During the overnight stay, I will also take care of all the other necessary things in the house, such as mail and plants, cleaning and others depending on the owner's wishes.&nbsp;
Dog walking: I am offering dog walking as well! Dog walks can be as long as the pet owner's suggest it is necessary for their pets! For dog walks, I believe it is best for the pets to go and walk in green areas such as local parks!&nbsp;
Nevertheless, I will always listen to the pet owner's suggestions and I will always accomodate their specific requirements!&nbsp;

Nederlandse biologe met een passie voor dieren. Mijn twee geweldige katten zijn altijd mijn beste vriendjes geweest. Daarnaast had ik vroeger ook ratten, gerbils, muizen, vissen, cavia's, konijnen en voor kortere tijd een hond. Het verzorgen van dieren is altijd een van mijn passies geweest, dus als ik voor iemands katten, honden of andere dieren zorg, neem ik altijd wat extra tijd om met ze te knuffelen en te spelen. Ook heb ik in dierenopvangen in het buitenland gewerkt.&nbsp;
Momenteel woon ik in een gedeelde flat zonder tuin waardoor het onmogelijk is om zelf huisdieren te hebben. Daarom pas ik graag op andermans huisdieren. Ik kan langskomen voor korte en langere bezoeken. Even de planten water geven en de post opbergen is geen probleem. Knuffelen met de kat, hond of andere dieren doe ik ook graag.&nbsp;
Ik kan op elk moment van de dag langskomen om eten te geven, socialiseren, kattenbak schoon te maken enzovoorts. Wat betreft honden uitlaten kan ik in overleg korte of lange afstanden lopen. Dit zal voornamelijk in de buurt zijn omdat ik geen beschikking heb over een auto. Als huisoppas ben ik een schoon persoon, ik laat dingen netjes achter en doe altijd goed de ramen en deuren op slot. Ook kan ik voor de tuin, planten en evt aquaria zorgen (geen ervaring met dit laatste). Laat het me weten als je nog vragen hebt!&nbsp;

I'm a Dutch biologist who loves animals. My two amazing cats have always been my best friends. In addition, I used to have rats, gerbils, mice, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits and for a shorter time a dog. Taking care of animals has always been one of my passions, so if I take care of someone's cats, dogs or other animals I always take some extra time to cuddle and play with them.&nbsp;
At the moment I live in a shared flat without a garden which makes it impossible to have pets myself. Therefore I'd be happy to take care of other people's pets. I can drop by for short and longer visits. Watering plants and storing the mail is no problem. I also like to cuddle with the cat, dog or other animals.
I can come at any time of the day to feed, socialize, clean the litter box and so on.  When it comes to walking dogs, I can walk short or long distances in consultation. This will mainly be in the area because I don't have a car. As a house sitter I am a clean person, I leave things tidy and always lock the windows and doors properly.  I can also take care of the garden, plants and possibly aquariums (no experience with the latter). Please let me know if you have any questions!&nbsp;


Hi there! I'm Leora, a 23-year-old psychology student at the University of Amsterdam, and animals are my passion, especially dogs!

With me as their sitter, your furry friends will be in caring hands. Whether it's walks, overnight stays, or just some quality playtime. Since I genuinely love spending time with animals, I'll ensure they're happy, well cared for, and well-loved.
I am usually available in the afternoon and evenings, however mornings are an option too some days. 
I can train your dog and administer medications. 
I can offer home visits for multiple hours, I am usually flexible with time.&nbsp;I can also offer watering the plants/ brining in the mail and other chores. 
For dog walking, I usually walk for around an hour, I am also flexible for walking hours. I would go to parks or forests, anywhere your dog can explore and get physical and mental exercise.  
For house sitting- I can stay at your home for as many hours as needed - depending on my schedule. I will of course take any security measures required by you. 
I have experience from caring for my own dog, Bella, living with 3 cats for 3 years, and volunteering at an animal shelter, I'm here to provide your babies with the care they deserve. Let's make tails wag together—reach out to me anytime! &lt;3 

Hi there! I'm Pia and I've been a dog lover all my life, having dogs by my side since I was born. I'm an international student from Croatia who is currently missing her two lovely dogs a lot! That is why I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your furry friends. I will make sure they are happy and safe. Whether it's a walk, a short stay, or some playtime, I will be happy to do it and treat your pets with love and give them all the attention they need. I will take all your instructions into account since you know your pet and its needs the best. I am available for walking your pets, checking up on them and taking care of them in your home.
I have experience taking care of my family members' and friends' dogs and cats, as well as my own dogs. I'm happiest when I'm with animals, so I'm really looking forward to the opportunity to hang out with your pet!
Thank you for considering me :)


Heyy there! 
I moved to the NL at the beginning of 2023 and I miss my animals sooo much! That's why I'd love to take care of your pets whether it's a dog or a cat! I have both of them at home so I have experience in each case! 
I work as a nanny so I'm super responsible and I'll make sure that nothing is missing for him/her (going outside, water, food, fun and love) 
I only can petsit on weekends (unless you live also in Hilversum) and I don't have any problem in taking care of any breed of dog or cat (as long as they are not aggressive). If he/she needs a special care or something I need to know please feel free to tell me️
I can help with waking your pet, staying at home with him/her, pet sitting at night at your place, feed him and everything you need. I do not offer services at my place, as animals are not allowed to come in! 
Last but not least, I love being with animals so I'll take care of him as my own!️
I hope hearing from you 🫶

I am available every day of the week, morning, noon and night! I understand every pet has different needs, so if you need a lengthy walk for your energetic pup, or a quick stroll for a senior dog, I can do it all!
 Why Choose me?I believe that every dog deserves a chance to experience the great outdoors, to feel the wind in their fur, and to explore the world around them. With a background in shelter work, I've learned to connect with dogs on a deeper level, offering not just walks but genuine companionship.
 Stay Connected:Enjoy peace of mind with real-time updates and adorable photos of our adventures. Your pup's happiness is my top priority, and I'll make sure you feel connected every step of the way.

I am originally from South Africa and have been living in the Netherlands for just over 2 years. I have a dog back home and miss spending time with him and taking him for walks, would love to have a dog myself but unfortunately my appartement does not allow pets so I am looking to sit other peoples pets and take them for walks while they are away for a weekend or on holiday. I have had dogs all my life and love to get to know them and find out what they like and how to make them as happy as possible. I have looked after other people's pets before but never here in Netherlands before, so would need some advice regarding the things your pets love to do and places that you normally take them for walks. If you need someone to look after your pets while you are away feel free to reach out to me. I don't have any preferences regarding the type of dog or whether they are vaccinated or not.

A big animal lover with a special place for dogs (and pet rats) in my heart. I treat animals with knowledge, respect, and unconditional love, and I'm eager to turn each interaction with them into a positive experience.&nbsp;
I spent my teenagehood with a family dog and, later as an adult, was the owner of two pet rats. Pursuing my interest in interacting with animals, I worked for Dogchill (a Ukrainian dog-walking and pet-sitting agency) as a freelancer for a year, regularly doing 1:1 walks with 6 different dogs (including one reactive dog and one with aggression towards other dogs). Additionally, I occasionally did pet-sitting visits to one cat. After I moved to the Netherlands, I had a short but very insightful period of several days working in a doggy daycare, interacting with dogs and managing the group dynamic.&nbsp;
I would love to help you with:

Home visits,
Pet sitting at your home,
Dog walks: 45 min - 2 hours

Dog walks include various activities. Afterward, I will provide you with photos and a GPS-tracked route of a walk.&nbsp;
Treats and poop bags have to be provided by the owner.&nbsp;


I am Ivy, and I live and work in Amsterdam. I grew up with two very special dogs in the Philippines. I have been enjoying catsitting and dogsitting my friends' furbabies when they are away ever since.&nbsp;
Perhaps I can shower your dog and cat with love and affection while you are away, or while you are busy? I usually discuss the owner's wishes and talk about their pet, habits, and personality beforehand. I spoil your cat and dog with cuddles, make sure they are fed, and the  cleaned up. I have walked dogs in their neighborhoods on leash. I know my way around Amsterdam.
I am available for petsitting and housesitting in your home. I can bring in the mail for you, water your plants, empty the trash, make sure your home is locked, and other tasks that you need me to do.
I am very dependable and trustworthy, and I am a good listener. I am a good planner and able to anticipate people's and pets' needs. During the week, I work with young children at a school in Amstelveen.&nbsp;
Please get in touch and we can discuss your needs!


Zusammen mit meiner Freundin, die zuhause einen Weimaraner hatte, passe ich seit Jahren regelmäßig auf Hunde auf, sei es während eines Urlaubs, an einem Wochenende oder für einen Tagesausflug. Dabei nehme ich den Hund gerne mit in der Natur, wo er nach Herzenslust rennen, spielen und schwimmen kann. Wenn es vertraut ist, lasse ich den Hund am liebsten frei, damit er sich austoben kann. 


Hey, you all!I am Kari and I am in love with animals :) This might seem very simple and obvious but that's genuinely why I offer these services: animals heal and keep us going, and it's amazing being there for them when they need us!As an animal tutor myself, I'd love to find someone to help and care for my animal as I do, and that's why you can trust that I can help you with your pets needs when you're away! I have got experience with cats, dogs, birds and bunnies care, but couldn't say no to any best friend! Back in my home country I sitted mainly for family and friends as a hobbie in free times and now I have been looking for sitter positions to fill in my schedule while studying and to find new furry friends that can as well light up my days! For me it will be more than a pleasure to help you and your paw friends!I am available for Hilversum, Huizen, Blaricum, Laren and surround.&nbsp;Keep me "pawsted"  at any time!!&nbsp;I look forward hearing from you soon!Important:- I am available mainly in afternoons and mornings from 10! Evenings can be discussed as well, though!- Walks can be also combined and I am more than happy in providing at least 30 minutes per round with our friend - I am not available for hosting friends yet but can go to your place and sit them whenever needed it! I also can provide at least one hour per visit of company to our pal.Love, ️Kari.&nbsp;

Hallo!Ik ben Aileen en ben een grote dierenliefhebber. Ik werk in de jeugdzorg en heb daardoor onregelmatige werktijden. Ik heb daardoor veel vrije tijd waarin het mij heerlijk lijkt om met een hond te wandelen of om thuis even langs te komen om hem of haar te verzorgen. Het is voor mij echt gewoon een hobby, om zo mensen uit de brand te helpen, te ontspannen met de dieren en een klein zakcentje bij te verdienen. Het werkt ontzettend rustgevend om met een hond de natuur in te gaan.Ik heb zelf bij mijn ouders de kat die op de foto staat. Verder houd ik ontzettend van honden en zij van mij. Helaas heb ik zelf nog geen hond maar dat is wel een droom van mij. Ik heb altijd een Duitse herder of nova scotia duck tolling retriever gewild. Zodra het kan, neem ik zeker mijn eigen hond!Verder over mijzelf: Ik ben afgestudeerd als Orthopedagoog bij Universiteit Utrecht. Ik ben momenteel werkzaam als pedagogisch medewerker. Hierbij werk ik met jongeren die gedragsproblemen vertonen.Ondanks dat ik misschien niet super veel ervaring heb, ben ik een zeer betrouwbaar persoon die veel liefde te geven heeft aan uw hond of kat.Ik hoop u en uw huisdier snel te zien! Hierbij kan ik mezelf bewijzen en komt er hopelijk een volgende keer!

House Sitting, Laren
