Über: Greetings 👋🏻 For about three years in San Francisco during college I have worked as a dog walker where I was entrusted to enter homes and take care/walk dogs big and small. From this experience I’ve come to understand that communication, security, and safety of the pets is of upmost importance. Quick to respond and send daily updates to owners. Comfortable with all tasks from providing medications to specifics that pertain to each animal and their lifestyle. Since the experience in San Francisco; patience, awareness, and learning the traits and quirks in every animal has been important in predicting behaviors and creating connections. My partner Max and I are also traveling house sitters with a 5 star rating and 16 house sits under our belt. We love to travel! We were able to explore every corner of the cities we’ve visited on walks, chill on comfortable couches with cats, and admire the way owner set up habitats for animals such as birds and fish, comfortable tending to any sort of animal and plant if requested! Max is from Berlin and between the both of us we speak Ukrainian, Polish, English and German Services I would love to offer range from boarding at my place or yours based on your preferences, stopping by to check in or stick around for the day, going for walks as I usually take walks to Victoria park or Tempelhof! With my schedule I work remote and also project based so I am able to leave my work anytime to attend to tasks, as I have open availability your buddy will be loved on at all times. Located in Mitte so we have many green spaces and lovely walks in our area. When it comes to walks and feeding I understand the importance of routine and try my best to follow the same schedule set in the pets home so they feel more comfortable. Similar when it comes to play time or training, if specifics are mentioned I usually try to upkeep during the boarding. As I have had experience with both WAG and THS I understand that details are important and every animal is different. From the start it is important that communication and the expectations for sitter are established. I like to make sure to be prepared and read all the details the owner states in the profile before confirming.

Über: I have always been passionate about animal welfare. Throughout my professional career, I have immersed myself in learning as much as I can in regards to Animal Welfare. While my focus has been in dog training, I’ve never been shy about adding to my skills. As such, I’ve apprenticed as a Groomer’s Assistant, completed Canine First Aid and Confirmation courses, and I have even spent time working in Veterinary Clinics. These experiences were fulfilling and allowed me to provide comprehensive information for my human students, therefore bridging the critical gap between training the dog and teaching the human. Most recently in my professional career, I was able to open my own successful dog-training business in the states, collaborating with the families of individuals with disabilities, as well as local Animal Welfare organizations and Rescues to provide critical training for both Service Dogs, and dogs living in pet homes. I focused on tailoring training methods to accommodate diverse needs and frequently developed innovative approaches, all while collaborating with various other Pet Professionals in my area. I'm fairly free in my availabilty, pending time hasn't already been booked by other clients. For drop-ins/walks I start my days at 10AM and, finish at 5PM. I don't take drop-ins/walks on Sundays, but I'm otherwise available the rest of the week. For dogs, I like to spend at least 30-40 minutes a day on decompression walks, just allowing dogs to sniff and enjoy the sensory input they crave. I do NOT do public dog parks or allow greetings for Clients with random animals, and I always carry compressed air-spray in the event an off-leash dog approaches. I'm happy to provide play and light grooming, such as routine brushing and nail trims if applicable and requested. I require at least one Meet & Greet with the owner present before commiting to any sitting requests, as it is imperative to me that the dog is comfortable with me and confident with me entering the home without their owner. For cats, I prefer to let them greet me at their speed while ensuring they have all necessary resources and a clean litterbox. I'm very happy to spend the day with a book and cozy cat at my shoulder or on my lap, but it won't hurt my feelings if the cat is shy and prefers to avoid me. Either way, I'll keep their water filled and their box clean.
