When you have to go away or work long hours, you may worry about leaving your pet home alone. Have you ever wondered “Is there a pet or dog sitter in Krimpen aan den IJssel that can help?”.

Luckily, with Pawshake, you can easily find local and trusted pet and dog carers from Krimpen aan den IJssel to provide drop in visits and other services. This means a pet sitter will come and visit your pet at a time you both agree on and provide lots of love and personal attention. This can include playtime in the backyard, a walk to the local park, or just some cuddle time. Our pet carers can also administer medication, give food, and refresh the water bowl.

In home pet sitting services are a great way to break up the day and enrich it for your pet. Pawshake pet sitters have extensive experience caring for a range of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds and more. If you have multiple pets, home visits are a great option to ensure that they all get a visit and lots of attention during the day.

Drop in visits are the least stressful option for your pet because your pet can stay in their favourite environment – their own home in Krimpen aan den IJssel. Their surroundings will be familiar and our loving and passionate Pawshake sitter will spoil them each day. Our sitters will treat your home with respect and are flexible with timing, requests and durations. All this can be discussed before you make a home visit booking.

Pet boarding is a great option for when you are away for a few days and your pet needs overnight care. Unlike pet hotels, Pawshake pet boarding allows you to arrange a personalised daily routine for your pet, whether this be extra belly rubs, playtime or 24 hour supervision. Your pet will stay with the pet sitter in a cosy home environment, rather than a large, impersonal pet hotel.  

So whether you need just one day, a week or even a month, you’ll be able to find an experienced pet or dog carer to accommodate you and your pet’s needs in Krimpen aan den IJssel. The best part is that your Pawshake pet sitter is from your local neighbourhood, so they will be familiar with the area.

Our pet carers also have a range of experiences which include puppies, seniors, nervous pets and dog training. So if your pet has special requirements, you’ll be sure to find a pet sitter that is a good match for you.

Your pet’s safety and welfare is a big priority for us, which is why all of our Pawshake pet sitters undergo a strict vetting process by our trust and safety team. At Pawshake, we understand that you might feel a little uneasy allowing a pet sitter to enter your home or arranging pet boarding at their place. This is why Pawshake pet sitters also have reviews from other pet parents that are publicly available on their profile for you to read.

Each pet sitting home visit and pet boarding booking made through Pawshake is covered by the Pawshake Guarantee, which includes veterinary coverage, customer support 7 days a week and more. Rest easy knowing that your pets will be well looked after by one of our expert pet carers in Krimpen aan den IJssel.

Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and I genuinely feel most at home around pets. I work, but I love animals so much that I want to spend more of my free time with them — and pet sitting feels like the perfect way to do that while also helping other pet owners feel relaxed and supported.

I grew up with dogs, so I’ve been around pets my whole life and I’m very comfortable with everyday routines like feeding, walks, playtime, basic grooming (like brushing), and keeping a calm, safe environment. Over the years I’ve been around dogs with very different personalities — from energetic, playful “let’s go!” types who need longer walks and mental stimulation, to gentle, calm dogs who prefer a slower pace, shorter walks, and lots of quiet companionship. I understand that some dogs are naturally social and confident, while others can be shy, cautious, or reactive at first — and I always take the time to earn their trust rather than rush them.

I’m also a proud cat owner, so I know cats can have very individual temperaments and boundaries. I’m used to everything from affectionate cats who love attention, to independent cats who prefer to observe first and come to you when they’re ready. I’m comfortable with cat routines like feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, interactive play, and making sure they feel safe in their space. I also pay attention to subtle behavior cues — for example, signs of stress, overstimulation, or a cat needing more quiet time — and I adjust my approach accordingly.

In general, I’m good at reading animals and their body language. I’m patient, gentle, and consistent, and I respect each pet’s personality. Some pets love cuddles, some prefer play, and some just want someone calm nearby — I’m happy to meet them where they are. If your pet is anxious when you’re away, I can keep things calm and predictable. If they’re high-energy, I can provide structured play and activity (within your rules). If they’re shy, I’ll take a slow, reassuring approach and never force interaction.

One important note: I’m not comfortable handling all medical conditions or complex care needs. However, this is definitely up for discussion. If your pet needs medication or has specific requirements, please tell me upfront and we can talk through what’s needed so we can decide together if it’s a good fit. I’ll always be honest about what I can confidently handle, because your pet’s safety and comfort come first.

If you’d like, send me a short note about your pet (species/breed, age, temperament, routine, any triggers or special needs) and what kind of care you’re looking for (walks, drop-ins, longer stays). I’ll be happy to chat and see how I can help — and I’m always glad to share updates and photos so you feel at ease while you’re away. 

Animals have always been a central part of my life. Growing up surrounded by cats, dogs, birds, and even chickens and roosters, I learned from a young age how to understand their needs, behaviors, and emotions. Over the years, I have personally taken care of more than ten cats, including supporting my cat Mia through giving birth and raising her kittens. I have also cared for dogs such as Panic and Ati in my home for extended periods, ensuring they felt safe, calm, and loved while their owners were away.


My experience goes beyond the basics—I know how to handle young, elderly, anxious, and pregnant animals with patience and confidence. I’ve bottle-fed kittens, comforted scared pets during storms, monitored special diets, and maintained clean, healthy environments for every animal I care for. My approach is gentle, attentive, and grounded in empathy. Animals naturally feel comfortable with me, and I treat every pet as a member of my own family.

If you’re looking for someone reliable, nurturing, and truly passionate about animal wellbeing, I would be honored to care for your pets. Your companions will receive safety, affection, and responsible attention every moment they are with me.

Hoi! Wat leuk dat je mijn profiel bekijkt 
Mijn naam is Dominique, ik ben 20 jaar oud en woon in Hoek van Holland. Dieren spelen al mijn hele leven een grote rol. Op dit moment heb ik zelf 2 cavia’s, 6 katten en 2 pony’s. Daarnaast heb ik 12 jaar lang met veel liefde voor een hond gezorgd.
In juni heb ik de opleiding Dierverzorging niveau 4 afgerond. Hierdoor heb ik veel kennis en ervaring opgedaan in het herkennen van signalen bij dieren, zoals stress of ongemak. Ik ben hier altijd alert op en neem ruim de tijd, ook bij angstige dieren. Het toedienen van medicatie is voor mij geen probleem en alles is bespreekbaar.
Omdat ik thuis al meerdere dieren heb, kan ik helaas geen dieren bij mij thuis opvangen. Wel kom ik met plezier bij jou aan huis voor de verzorging van je dier. Ik ben actief in het Westland en omgeving.
Ik ben een echte dierenliefhebber en heb ervaring met verschillende soorten dieren. Elk dier is anders en verdient persoonlijke aandacht, zorg en rust.
Ben je na het lezen van mijn profiel enthousiast geworden? Neem dan gerust contact met me op. Ik kijk ernaar uit om voor jouw dier te mogen zorgen.
Groetjes,
Dominique
