Hi there!

My name is Efrayim, I’m based in Amsterdam, born and raised in this vibrant city I call home. While I didn’t grow up with pets of my own, I’ve always felt a natural connection with animals. Over the years, I’ve regularly cared for dogs of friends and family, and discovered how fulfilling and joyful it is to spend time with them. 

My services
When your dog is staying at my place I treat them with the same love and attention as I would my own. I take time to connect, observe, and adapt, because every animal has its own rhythm, character and needs. 💛

I’m totally fine with them lounging on the couch(es) or exploring the apartment freely, nothing is really off-limits. Whether they need long walks, slow strolls, mental stimulation or just a peaceful nap companion, I’ll happily match their vibe. Just let me know their routine and preferences!

Neighbourhood
I live in De Pijp, one of the most vibrant and walkable areas of Amsterdam. It’s just a 6-minute walk to Sarphatipark (which has a dog park), perfect for relaxed strolls or playful runs. The Amstel is also super close; walking along the Weesperzijde is one of my favorite routes, and only 5 minutes from my home. 

I also have a private backyard where your dog can safely play, relax, or stretch their legs, ideal for dogs who need a secure outdoor space or just off-leash time in a calm and enclosed environment. No matter the setting, I always make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and at ease.

Outside of pet care, I work in the art world and love spending my free time visiting galleries and cultural spaces. And most of the time, if I’m dog sitting, your furry friend comes along with me, they get to enjoy the strolls, new impressions, and all the extra attention too!

If you'd like to meet first or see more of the space, I’d be happy to arrange a quick visit or send over some extra photos. You’ll also find some images in my album of the apartment, the garden, and some of the lovely pets I’ve cared for. My motivation? I genuinely enjoy the company of dogs and understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy when you're away. I’d love to help make your time apart as stress-free as possible, for both you and your furry friend.

Looking forward to welcoming your dog with open arms!

Warm regards,
Efrayim
