Siya&Me

Siya & Me is a personal dog walking and care service provided by Chris Savides as a private individual operating from Diemen, Netherlands. It is not a registered company, professional kennels, or veterinary service.

All services are provided personally by Chris Savides. No third parties, employees, or agents are involved in the care of client dogs.

• All services must be paid for in advance. No slot, walk, or daycare day is held without payment.
• Weekly daycare is paid at the start of each week. Monthly walk subscriptions at the start of each calendar month.
• Ad hoc bookings are paid at the time of booking confirmation.
• Payment by bank transfer (IBAN provided on request) or agreed alternative.
• All new clients must complete a meet-and-greet walk before any booking is accepted or payment requested.
• I reserve the right to decline any booking at my discretion without providing a reason.

• Walk and daycare cancellations require a minimum of 24 hours notice. Late cancellations are charged in full.
• Overnight stay cancellations require a minimum of 48 hours notice. Cancellations within 48 hours are charged in full.
• If a dog is not at the agreed pickup point within 15 minutes of the scheduled time, the walk proceeds without them. No refund applies.
• If I am unable to provide a service, I will give at least 24 hours notice wherever possible.

• All client dogs must be fully vaccinated. Proof of kennel cough vaccination is required before the first walk.
• I reserve the right to request full vaccination records at any time.
• Dogs showing signs of illness or contagious conditions will not be accepted. No refund is required where a dog is declined on health grounds.
• Owners must disclose any known health conditions, allergies, or behavioural issues prior to the meet-and-greet.

• I do not feed client dogs during walks or daycare. Fresh water is always available.
• For overnight stays, owners must provide their dog’s own food and clear feeding instructions.
• I do not administer medication of any kind without prior written agreement. I reserve the right to decline bookings where medication is required.

In the event of a medical emergency I will contact the owner immediately and ensure the dog receives veterinary attention using the emergency contact and vet details provided at booking.

All veterinary costs are the sole responsibility of the owner and must be settled directly between the owner and the veterinarian.

I am not a veterinarian and hold no animal medical qualifications.

While all reasonable care will be taken at all times, I do not accept liability for:

• Injury, illness, loss, or death of a client dog during any walk, daycare session, or overnight stay.
• Damage caused by a client dog to property or third parties.
• Injury or illness arising from interaction between dogs.
• Loss or damage to any items or accessories belonging to the owner or their dog.

This service carries no professional insurance. By proceeding with a booking, the owner accepts full responsibility for their dog and all associated risks. This does not affect statutory rights under Dutch consumer law.

• The owner confirms their dog is in good health, fully vaccinated, and suitable for group interaction.
• The owner must disclose any known behavioural issues or history of aggression before the meet-and-greet.
• The owner must provide current emergency contact details and their veterinarian’s contact details.
• The owner accepts their dog will walk alongside Siya and potentially other client dogs.
• The owner is responsible for ensuring their dog is microchipped and registered in accordance with Dutch law.

• Subscription and regular daycare clients take priority over ad hoc bookings at all times.
• Ad hoc bookings are by appointment only and subject to availability.
• Maximum three client dogs at any one time. This limit will not be exceeded.
• Walks and daycare operate on weekdays only. Overnight stays on weekends with prior notice.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. Any disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Dutch courts. Nothing in these terms affects the statutory rights of the client under Dutch consumer law.

These terms may be updated from time to time. The version published on this website at the time of booking applies.
