How it works?
Stefanie
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Animal lover and avid wildlife photographer
This was honestly the first time I've ever felt comfortable and totally at ease with a petsitter. We were a long way from home, and Stefanie looked after our 4 dogs fabulously. She even took care of a post foot-op recovery with absolute ease. She sent little video updates of them regularly, and honestly they were as happy as they normally are when we are at home. This is a first, as they normally pine for us for the first few days and then give us a bit of a sulk when we return, but we had none of that. We also had a lovely meal prepared for us upon our return. Stefanie is self-sufficient and reliable and I would totally recommend her as a babysitter.
Chantal
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Hi, we are a couple from the Netherlands, living in Spain and we work from home
Chantal and Rianne were amazing pet sitters. They were very attentive, and communication was great. They took care of our five Silkie hens and two cats. When we arrived home, the house was super clean, and all our pets were happy. They are welcome back anytime.
Yvonne
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Flexible and caring couple who love challenges
Yvonne and Jeroen were fantastic - so caring, considerate and they did everything to make sure the cats were well looked after, including missing their New Years plans to stay with the cats who were scared of the fireworks. They were independent, communicated well and left the apartment incredibly clean, as well as leaving loads of deliciously baked goodies for us on our return. Delightful pair and I would highly recommend them or have them back to cat-sit anytime. So grateful for their professional and loving approach. Thanks again Yvonne and Jeroen
Renske
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Enjoying life with animals
Renske is an excellent pet sitter. She looked after our cat & our tortoise for 2 weeks whilst we were on our summer holiday and even though she had never looked after a tortoise before she was very diligent & took a lot of time to care for him & ensure she was feeding him correctly with the correct food. She communicated well with us & asked questions when she wasn’t sure of anything. We have come back to a very clean & tidy house & would happily have Renske back in the future to look after our animals. We would highly recommend her.
Karen
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Dutch ICU nurse taking sabbatical for 3 months , lover of all animals.
Karen was fantastic - she left the house immaculate, looked so well after my two dogs and even cooked us dinner on our return!! Definitely a 5star petsitter!!
Manon
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
An enthusiastic couple from the Netherlands that’s traveling around
Manon and Thomas came to pet sit our little cat Perdy while we visited Europe for a month and we were very impressed! They kept us up to date with how Perdy was by sending us regular photographs, and were very helpful in keeping our house kept while we were away. They were so friendly and very reliable and responsive to our messages and made the whole process very easy and lovely! Would definitely recommend these two for anyone who needs a pet sitter !
Elzemien
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Elzemien Brouwer, singing teacher
We really enjoyed meeting Elzemien and Bob. They are self sufficient and capable people who looked after our pets and home very well. They had a scare when one of our dogs ran off (not their fault) and got lost for 24 hours, but they contacted us straight away and the village was mobilised to bring the bad boy home. We had a lovely meal prepared for our return home.
Anja
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Creative, tidy and quiet. Looking for furry friends-for-a-while!
Anja was brilliant - she was very conscientious in caring for our slightly temperamental cat, and she kept the house and garden in lovely shape - she even made some improvements to our wayward garden, which we really appreciated. She was very good at keeping us informed about how she and Sooty were doing, and was not fazed by a few small problems with the house, which she addressed very capably after consulting with us. We came back to a happy cat, a lovely clean house and tidy garden and we would be very happy if she was able to cat-sit for us again one day, Thanks so much, Anja!

Compassionate and Reliable Pet Sitters: Let Us Take Care of Your Fur Babies!
Natalia and Taylor were great housesitters and took excellent care of my cat Medus while I was away. They sent regular updates and even took my cat on his daily walk outside on a leash/harness. When I came home, the house was clean and tidy and Medus seemed relaxed and happy. I would be happy to have them back in the future!
Arno
Providing Pet Sitting in the Haren, Netherlands
Responsible pet loving couple looking to help you out!
Arno & Marijke are wonderful human beings. I was lucky to cross paths with them. ❤️ Despite the entire sit (and so, their first trip to the United States) taking several unexpected turns, they took it all in stride and were caring and thoughtful throughout. My beloved kitty, Cokie, disappeared about six weeks before they were scheduled to arrive. Although the signs pointed to him not returning, I invited them to come anyway because I knew they were looking forward to visiting the U.S., and I wanted someone to be here in the off chance that Cokie did show up. Fortunately, we were able to meet briefly when they first arrived as they were doing a road trip before the sit started. They brought me a beautiful memento made by an artisan in the Netherlands using a photo of Cokie. Then four days before their scheduled return to start the sit, my daughter was hospitalized in Norway, and I had to leave immediately to help care for her there. So instead of being greeted by me when they arrived for the sit, they were greeted by my neighbors, who I had passed on some instructions to. We were in communication by text the entire time which was helpful, but I was sorry not to welcome them completely to my home in person. It became clear when I arrived in Norway that my daughter was not going to be able to continue on with our scheduled travels in the country and we would need to return home early for her to recover. So Arno and Marijke's month-long sit turned into a week-long sit. They incurred additional expense flying home early and were not able to see the beautiful Pacific Northwest as thoroughly as they had hoped. Despite this, they were kind and gracious and thoughtful of me. Upon my return home, I was greeted with a sweet card, flowers, and a delicious bar of chocolate. I no longer have need for pet sitters, but if I did, I would not hesitate to invite Arno and Marijke back again. 😊
Reviews from Cat Owners
Lisa
I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Esther
We are thoroughly pleased with and impressed by Daniel's kind, generous, and careful care of our cat and our house. He is a committed and experienced sitter who completely understands his role and responsibilities and also how to gently win the confidence and affection of a pet. He is an excellent communicator, and he kept us regularly up to date on our cat's well being--sending us texts and photos at least once/week as we requested. Our cat who is a little afraid of new people, grew fond of him, and we have returned to a very calm, contented cat. We highly recommend Daniel, and we ourselves would be thrilled to engage him again when the need arises.

Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!

Daniel and Vasylyna were incredible house sitters and we would welcome them back to sit for us again any time they are available! They were fantastic communicators, making sure to work out details far in advance and they sent frequent picture updates of our animals which made us so happy while we were away. When the power went out in the neighborhood while they were here leading to a technology issue with our alarm system, they handled everything well. Upon our return, the house was clean, the garden was thriving and well cared for, and our dog and cat were clearly very loved while we were away - in fact our dog was sooooo sad to see them leave! I had the pleasure of getting to know them a bit before I left, and they are such a kind, adventurous, and great couple. I would highly recommend having Daniel and Vasylyna take care of your house, plants, and animals!
Inma
Jenima is an excellent sitter! She is organized, communicative and flexible throughout the stay. We needed a sitter at the last minute because Jazz got sick, and Jenima saved us. We left a little worried about him, but Jenima took care of him really well and kept us informed. Cats love her! We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets!
Bridget
Lindsey watched our cat and dog for a long weekend when we went out of town. She was a very communicative sitter sending frequent pictures and voice notes with updates. She did a great job of following their schedules and giving them attention. The animals seemed to be happy and relaxed when we returned home and I believe Lindsey enjoyed getting to discover all of the eateries our town has to offer. A win-win for everyone!

Caroline is an amazing sitter ! We were far away, had never left our cat for such a long period of time and we felt really confident with her. She took great care of our cat Honey as well as she did for the house, pool and garden. She was even able to handle the end of the refection of the bathroom which was a last minute surprise… We felt Caroline was reliable and self sufficient. We had a great communication with her during our stay abroad. We even found many nice intentions when we came back from our vacations such as fresh fruits and bakeries for a nice and welcomed breakfast after a night in a plane ! We definitely recommend Caroline for your sittings and we will obviously call her back !

Greetings Pet People, I am a bit late leaving my review for Kristine who is local to us and has taken care of our kitties Max and Luis a few times this year. After COVID-19 was announced in March, our travel plans came to an abrupt halt. We had to cancel a lot of trips we had planned but decided that it was safe to go camping a couple of times this summer. We called on Kristine as one of our favorite sitters on this site. We discussed safety protocols and agreed to cleaning that we would do to leave the house safe for her to enter. She shared protocols that she had taken with other homeowners and had sound processes to make us feel safe leaving our cats and our home in her care. She even purchased batteries for our automatic cat feeder when it failed to let one of our confused kitties to eat. Kristine is a smart, humorous and a thoughtful person. I would not hesitate to recommend her for your sit. She truly loves animals and taking care of your home. Highly recommended! Thanks Kristine!

Tonya was great and filled in after our other sitter had to cancel. She was very self sufficient and navigated acclimating herself to everything since she arrived after we left. She gave thoughtful updates on my cat and I could tell she really enjoyed her, so that means the world to me! She left the place immaculate and we will certainly have Tonya back!
Steven
Kristine was wonderful again as our local sitter from just down the street. The boys take to her like she is their best friend whenever she comes to sit with them. She sent us photos of them playing, relaxing, drinking water and eating so we knew they were well taken care of. The house and the cats were in excellent shape and excellent hands while we were away. It is wonderful that she enjoys the house and the cats so much and tells us so. Kristine comes with our highest recommendation! Thank you Kristine!
