Caring for your dog in Rotterdam
Rotterdam-specific tips every dog owner should know
Wind Exposure
Rotterdam is one of the windiest cities in the Netherlands. Small dogs may need coats during winter walks along the Maas.
Urban Crossings
Rotterdam has busy tram and bus routes. Sitters should keep dogs leashed at all crossings and near stations.
Water Safety
The Maas river runs through the city. Keep dogs leashed near harbour edges and waterfront areas.
