My dog Newton loves going here! He has a great time playing with the other dogs in the field and garden. Katja sends a lovely update during the day with great pictures and videos. She made sure Newton was comfortable inside the house, letting him explore and settle where he wanted. She is great at reading his behaviour, knowing when he needs a break or some one-on-one play time. Fully recommend and Newotn will be a frequent visitor!

We are super happy with Katja and her lovely dog Mai. Our dog has spent (part of) the day with them on multiple occasions and he is comfortable around them. Katja communicates clearly and is friendly and flexible. She took the time to get to know our dog and pays attention to his personality and needs. Mai is very sweet and Katja monitors the interaction. As our dog enjoys lounging on the couch at home, it is great that he is allowed on the couch there as well. There is a good sized field behind the house for playtime. The garden can be used for playtime as well if the obstacles are cleared to avoid collision. Absolute perfection could be achieved if a fence or (temporary) poultry netting were installed along the narrow ditch to prevent escape. Our dog is a sighthound and can easily jump the ditch if he spots something in the next field, so the field is currently not safe for him. No complaint though! Katja clearly mentions this narrow canal in the description and she gives the dogs plenty of attention and exercise. All in all, everything is perfectly fine and we are lucky to have found such a wonderful dog sitter!

15 years experience

Rural Retreat for Your Dog with Mai & me

Looking for a safe and loving place for your dog while you're away? I offer daycare and overnight stays in a countryside home where your pup feels relaxed and cared for.

🐶 What to Expect:
- A test walk/playdate to ensure compatibility with Mai, our 4-year old podenco (f).
- When staying with us: long countryside walks, playtime in our fenced garden, and cozy cuddles on couch.

🏡 About Our Home:
- First-floor farmhouse apartment (access via stairs).
- Private fenced garden. But accessed via neighbours (fenced) garden. The neighbours have two goats, chickens, Labrador (m, 2 years old), and a German shepherd-mix (f, 10-years old). Play dates and meets with the dogs can be arranged.
- Nearby field for zoomies. This field is closed off by canals, but on one spot the canal is only ~ 1 meter wide, so only suitable for familiar, non-escape-artist dogs.
- Dogs can roam indoors but must sleep independently (or with Mai).

🐾 About Me:
I have years of experience with dogs, from family dogs, shelter volunteering to pet-sitting. Since adopting Mai, I've loved providing a fun, safe space for visiting dogs. My boyfriend, also a dog lover, occasionally joins in.
