Who wants to walk their dog once or twice a week?

Once or weekly · 0 to 1 hours

For a few years now I have been walking a sweet dog for a lady who unfortunately cannot walk the dog herself due to illness. The dog is already a bit older, walks calmly on a leash and has little interest in other dogs along the way. Given the age of the dog, the walks do not have to be long, 20-25 minutes walking at a time is already very nice. Location: the lady and dog live in Verzetswijk, less than 5 minutes walk from NS station Parkwijk.

Telephone Operator & Matchmaker Neighborhood Network

Weekly · 3 to 6 hours

Do you like helping people and having nice conversations? Are you handy with the internet and working on a computer? Do you speak good Dutch and are you available one or two half days a week? Do you like sedentary work and nice colleagues? Then you are welcome at Burennetwerk as a volunteer 'mediator'! Burennetwerk offers accessible help to people who are unable to do everything themselves due to circumstances, where the help cannot be arranged by their own network and who are financially limited for professional help. At Burennetwerk, the mediators take requests for help by telephone and match volunteers with people seeking help. These people are looking for help from a volunteer for example with groceries, transport etc. Or they like it when someone visits every week. You search for the right match via a computer system. Of course you will be trained and you can try out whether this is something you like. There are employees and experienced mediators who you can fall back on if you don't know what to do. As a volunteer at the VMCA you can participate in training courses and fun outings throughout the year. Applying for a free VOG is part of the registration. We are currently looking for mediators for Monday afternoon and Thursday morning. The times are from 9:30 to 12:30 in the morning and from 13:00 to 16:00 in the afternoon. Would you rather work on a different day? Then we can discuss the possibilities with each other. Interested or want more information first? Send us a message!
