Day & Overnight Care

We’re delighted that you’re considering having your dog stay with us at Dog Hotel Amsterdam. Below you’ll find a clear overview of what to expect from our day and overnight care, so you can head out with complete peace of mind—knowing your dog is safe, settled and well looked after.

CARE THE WAY YOU’D WANT IT FOR YOUR DOG

At Dog Hotel Amsterdam, we know your dog is more than “just a pet” — they’re part of your family. That’s why our all‑inclusive service is built around what dogs genuinely need: balanced routines, plenty of exercise, calm rest and safe social time. Rather than charging extra for gimmicks, we focus on a natural, structured environment where your dog can play, move and socialise in a way that feels familiar.

A CONSISTENT, FAMILIAR CARER

Your dog is cared for 24/7 by a dedicated, familiar person, so they feel secure and settled. We keep the atmosphere calm and low‑stress, with genuine attention and affection throughout the day.

NO UNEXPECTED COSTS — JUST PROPER CARE

We don’t add surcharges for public holidays or peak season. On your check‑in day, we charge in three‑hour blocks, so you never pay for time you don’t use.
Your dog deserves care that feels safe, familiar and genuinely attentive — and that’s exactly what we provide.

When you bring your dog to us, they don’t stay in a kennel or separate unit — they stay in our home as part of everyday life, alongside our three well‑mannered Labradors. Our dogs are sociable, steady and welcoming, which helps new guests settle in quickly.

We know a new environment can be a big step. That’s why we keep things calm and structured, giving each dog the space to adjust at their own pace. Whether your dog enjoys a cosy nap in the living room, pottering in the garden, or stretching their legs on walks, they’ll receive the care, attention and affection they deserve.

SLEEPING JUST LIKE AT HOME

No hard kennels or impersonal pens — your dog sleeps in our comfortable living room, where they can properly relax and recover after an active day. Dogs can choose a favourite spot where they feel most at ease, and we make sure everyone gets their own quiet time.

If your dog is used to a crate or their own bed, you’re welcome to bring it — we’ll incorporate it into their routine so they feel as at home as possible.

ALWAYS A FAMILIAR FACE

Because we’re present 24/7, there’s always someone close by who knows your dog and understands their signals. That continuity is reassuring for your dog — and for you.

At Dog Hotel Amsterdam, everything is built on trust, security and genuine one‑to‑one attention. Your dog deserves the best — and that’s exactly what we provide.

We understand how important it is that your dog receives the same care and love as at home — and that includes food. You’re welcome to bring your dog’s usual food so there’s no sudden change in diet. If your dog has specific preferences, a feeding schedule, or allergies, we’ll follow your instructions carefully.

If you’d prefer us to provide meals, we can offer a high‑quality option made with natural, wholesome ingredients to support a balanced diet (additional cost applies).

MORE THAN MEALS — WELLBEING FIRST

Alongside good nutrition, we provide thoughtful day‑to‑day care. Whether your dog needs medication, a special diet, or a little extra support at mealtimes, we make sure everything is done carefully and on time — just as you would at home.

Dogs who need to eat quietly are given space to do so at their own pace, without pressure from other dogs. After meals, we keep an eye on appetite and wellbeing.

HEALTHY TREATS, GIVEN RESPONSIBLY

We don’t do unnecessary frills — but we do believe in small, sensible treats. Your dog will receive a healthy snack suited to their needs, and on warm days a refreshing dog ice cream. Always chosen with wellbeing in mind.

FAMILIAR, PERSONAL AND GENUINELY CARING

Because we’re here 24/7 and your dog becomes part of our household, we notice quickly if anything feels “off”. We believe the best care isn’t about luxury extras; it’s about calm routines, genuine attention and a natural environment where dogs can simply be dogs.

At Dog Hotel Amsterdam, we care for your dog as if they were our own — with kindness, consistency and attention to their wellbeing.

Dogs are naturally active and social. That’s why we make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise and enrichment — with freedom to explore, play and unwind at their own pace. No tiny dog runs or quick loops around the block; with us, your dog gets the space and time they need.

DAILY WALKS IN BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS

We take your dog out several times a day in our neighbouring green, waterside off‑lead area. It’s ideal for sniffing, running and decompression without the hustle and bustle of the city. We also offer longer outings to the forest, the beach or the polder — perfect for dogs who love an adventure.

ACTIVITY TAILORED TO YOUR DOG

Every dog is different. Some thrive on long, energetic walks; others prefer a gentler pace and more rest. We tailor the day to what your dog enjoys, whether that’s:
✔ Long walks – exploring and sniffing in a calm, natural environment
✔ Running and play – free movement and friendly social time with other dogs
✔ Sporty activities – for dogs who love a challenge
✔ Cuddles and calm – for dogs who prefer one‑to‑one attention

SAFE SOCIAL TIME

Your dog has supervised opportunities to play with other dogs in a controlled, safe setting. Staying alongside our three well‑mannered Labradors means there’s always friendly canine company. We introduce dogs thoughtfully so interactions stay positive and never overwhelming.

REST AND RECOVERY

After activity, downtime matters. We keep a balanced rhythm so dogs don’t become over‑stimulated. Between walks and play, your dog can relax in our home environment — just as they would at home.

At Dog Hotel Amsterdam, it’s not about flashy “luxury”; it’s about natural movement, social connection and calm, personalised care.

We know it takes trust to leave your dog in someone else’s care. For us, safety and wellbeing come first — always. We look after your dog as if they were our own, with attentive, informed care.

24/7 SUPERVISION AND A FAMILIAR FACE

Your dog is never left alone. We’re present around the clock, so there is always a familiar person nearby. That continuity is calming for dogs, and it means we can respond immediately if something is needed. Because we get to know each dog properly, we notice quickly if anything changes in behaviour, appetite or energy.

A CALM, LOW‑STRESS HOME ENVIRONMENT

At Dog Hotel Amsterdam, your dog stays in our home — not in a kennel. That means:
✔ No hard runs or lonely nights – your dog sleeps in our living room, home‑style
✔ A steady, sociable pack – our three well‑mannered Labradors create a stable atmosphere
✔ Care tailored to the individual – we support your dog to settle in at their own pace

HEALTH, ROUTINE AND MEDICATION

We keep a close eye on how your dog is feeling: eating, resting and relaxation. If anything stands out, we act promptly and keep you informed.

If medication is required, we administer it carefully and on schedule, just as you would at home — and it’s included in our service at no extra cost.

HYGIENE AND COMFORT

A clean environment supports a healthy stay. We provide fresh sleeping areas, clean drinking water and a hygienic living space. We also balance activity with rest so every dog stays comfortable and content.

YOUR DOG IS FAMILY — AND WE TREAT THEM THAT WAY

With us, your dog is safe, cared for and genuinely looked after, so you can be away with total peace of mind.

Leaving your dog — even with excellent care — can feel daunting. We understand, and we want you to feel completely comfortable. That’s why we keep you informed in a way that suits you.

PERSONAL UPDATES, THE WAY YOU PREFER

Every owner is different: some like regular updates, while others prefer a message only when there’s something noteworthy. We’re happy to agree this with you, so you receive exactly the level of communication you want.

If you’d like a quick check‑in while you’re away, just ask. We can send a message, photo or short video so you can see your dog relaxed and happy with us.

CLEAR, HONEST AND EASY TO REACH

✔ Regular updates via WhatsApp or your preferred channel
✔ Quick replies to questions — so you’re never left wondering
✔ Open communication – if anything comes up, you’ll hear from us straight away

YOUR DOG IS WELL CARED FOR — AND YOU STAY CONNECTED

We want you to feel confident, not just “hope” everything is fine. Whether you’re travelling, working late or away for the weekend, you can count on a direct line to us and the reassurance that your dog is in safe, experienced hands.

Because nothing beats knowing your dog is having a great time — and that’s exactly what we aim for.
