About Lara

A Dedicated Pet Sitter for Your Furry Friends' Well-being

With over nine years of experience caring for dogs of various breeds, I'm passionate about providing your beloved companions with the love and attention they deserve while you're away. My home in Haarlem offers a safe and comfortable environment, filled with love, treats, and enough space for them to explore.

My journey into pet sitting began with raising my own dogs, which we adopted from a shelter. We witnessed their transformation from traumatized puppies to loving family members. This led to my passion for animal care. Volunteering at a local shelter back in Istanbul and having 3 years of experience as a sitter in the Netherlands further helped me understand different breeds' and their unique personalities.

Currently a university student, I reside in a calm city, ensuring your pets have a peaceful environment. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate your needs, from daily walks and playtime sessions to overnight stays. I'm committed to providing personalized attention, ensuring your pets feel safe, loved, and well-adjusted during your absence.

To prioritize your pet's health and well-being, I only accept vaccinated animals into my home. Vaccinations are essential for protecting your pet from infectious diseases and maintaining their overall health. 

When you need peace of mind for your furry friend's care, entrust them to my experienced hands. I'll be your trusted sitter, ensuring your pet receives the love and attention they need to stay happy and healthy while you're away.

About my services:

  • I offer daily walks (+3 times depending on the breed) around 30 mins, playtime sessions, overnight stays with full-time care and attention to different food habits and a safe and comfortable environment for your furry friends. plus, I will never leave pets alone in the house.
  • I can administer medication to pets if necessary.
  • I can provide basic training and grooming services. Please note that I am not a certified professional trainer or groomer YET :) 
  • I can board up to 4 dogs at the same time depending on the breed.
  • My dog walks are typically 30 minutes long.
  • I am a university student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care around my studies. I am available to care for pets during the day, evening, and weekends.
  • Availability: I am available to care for pets every day of the week including weekends. Hours are flexible.
  • Other occupants of the home: I live with my partner Kars Kleijn who helps me in this passion.
  • Sleeping arrangements for guest pets: Guest pets will sleep wherever they want in my home either in a separate room with their own bed and toys or with me, cuddling! :)
  • Garden area: We live close to a great forest area for dogs that is large enough to run and play.
