Who are we?

We’re Melisa and Emre—an experienced, dog-loving duo based in Haarlem Noord. We welcome just one or a few dogs at a time into our home, treating each one like they’re our own.

About Boutique Dog Boarding

At Paw Suite Haarlem, we’re not just another sitter—we offer true home-based care for dogs who deserve a calm, loving place to land while you’re away.

Your dog gets more than just a place to sleep:  

They get routine, affection, consistency, and a peaceful environment that brings out their best—whether they’re a bouncy pup, a wise senior, a shy rescue, or anything in between.

Why Families Choose Us Over a Kennel

At Paw Suite Haarlem, your dog is never one of many. They’re part of our family—for as long as they stay. With every guest, our promise stays the same: safe space, kind care, steady presence.

Boutique Dog Care, Not a Dog Crowd

We don’t fill our home with as many dogs as possible. We deliberately keep things low-traffic so your dog can feel relaxed, not overstimulated.

Real One-on-One Time

Because we work from home, your dog gets near constant company—there’s always someone close by to offer a walk, a cuddle, or calm reassurance.

Tailored to YOUR Dog

We follow your dog’s routine. No one-size-fits-all. Just thoughtful, consistent, personalized care.

Direct & Personal Communication

You’ll always talk directly to us—the same people who love and care for your dog daily. We’re easy to reach, honest, and always happy to check in with photos or updates whenever you need them.

Gentle Routines, Not Strict Schedules

We follow your dog’s natural rhythm—more naps for older pups, more play for the energetic ones. We build their day around what feels good for them, not rigid checklists.

Care, the Way It Should Be

This isn’t just pet care—it’s personal care, built around trust, thoughtful routines, and heart. Dogs with special needs, anxiety, or trauma are welcomed here with extra patience and understanding.

Cozy Corners & Familiar Comforts

Your dog naps on soft blankets, lounges in sunny corners, and enjoys the gentle rhythm of a real home—not kennels, crates, or sterile runs. It’s the kind of environment they naturally settle into and feel safe in.

Truly a Place They’ll Want to Return To

Over and over, our guests come back with wagging tails. Many dogs happily run up to our door like they’re visiting a second home—and for us, that’s the best review of all.

We’ve cared for: 


✔️ Gentle giants (like Cane Corsos & Shepherds)  
✔️ Tiny companions  
✔️ Puppies & senior dogs  
✔️ Reactive dogs
✔️ Anxious dogs & rescues  
✔️Smart hunting dogs
✔️and many more!

Dogs of all sizes and breeds are welcome! We believe every dog deserves love: no matter the size or breed, as long as they’re friendly and easy to be around.

Meet & Greet at Our Home

Visit us at home for a relaxed intro and to make sure it’s the perfect match for everyone.

At Paw Suite Haarlem, we offer boutique, home-based dog care in a calm, loving environment, free from kennels, crates, or chaos. Located in Haarlem Noord, we (Melisa and Emre) welcome just one or a few dogs at a time into our home, treating each one like family. Whether your dog is playful, shy, anxious, or aging, we provide tailored routines, one-on-one attention, and a peaceful space where they can truly relax. We prioritize trust, consistency, and gentle care, especially for dogs with special needs or trauma. Every stay begins with a personal meet & greet, and we keep communication open throughout, so you always feel connected. Because for us, this isn’t just pet care, it’s personal care.

We believe every dog deserves the right environment, so we take time to get to know each pup before accepting them for boarding. Our meet & greet at home is designed to let your dog explore the space, get comfortable with us, and ensure it’s a good match. This also gives us the chance to learn about your dog’s personality, habits, and needs, so we can provide care that feels natural and familiar to them. By starting with this thoughtful introduction, we create a stress-free, positive experience for every dog that stays with us.
