Ein Herz für Hunde 🐾🤎 EN | NL | DE

Pet care experience

Seit dem ich denken kann bin ich umgeben von Hunden. Wir hatten lebendige Schäferhunde zu Hause. Als kleiner Junge spielte ich regelmässig mit aufgedrehten Australian Shepherd und genügsamen Pittpulls aus der Nachbarschaft Fussball. Habe auf ruhige Galgos und schwere Neufundländer über mehrer Tage aufgepasst und liebe von Herzen jeden vierbeinigen Freund oder Freundin. Ich selber bin Gesundheits- und Sportpsychologe und daher auch sehr interessiert an Hundepsychologie und meine das Wesen des Tieres gut einschätzen zu können bzw zu erkennen was es im aktuellen Moment bedarf. Ever since I can remember I have been surrounded by dogs. We had very active german shepherds at home. As a little boy I regularly played soccer with hyper active Australian Shepherd and frugal Pittpulls from the neighborhood. I have taken care of calm Galgos and heavy Newfoundlands for several days and I love every four-legged friend from the bottom of my heart. I am a health and sports psychologist and therefore very interested in dog psychology too. I think I can judge the nature of the animal well and recognize what he or she needs in the current moment.

10 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!! This is absolutely, by far, the best dog boarding experience we have ever had. Alexander exudes compassion and an eagerness to bond with dogs. It’s clear from the very beginning of our meet and greet that he truly cares for our four legged family member, asking about his training, any concerns we have, getting to know our dog’s personality and quirks. He’s very communicative and he is SO ACTIVE with our dog. From the photos we’ve never seen our dog so happy. We live a busy work life and can’t walk our dog for more than 2 hours a day, combined, let alone what Alexander does, which is over 8 miles. We are so thrilled to find someone who cares just as much about our dog like we do, if not more. Buttons came back extremely happy and tired from all the fun times he had with Alexander. It’s amazing to find someone who does more than simply feed and walk your dog 1-2 times a day. Alexander is someone who truly cares about the psychology of your furry friend, reinforcing the training, and giving him plenty of mental and physical stimulation. The absolute best! We will be the first to sign up if and when he opens up his own dog boarding business!

Exceptional Care and Professionalism Alex is an outstanding dog sitter who cared for my young and anxious Whiskey, with unmatched professionalism and compassion. His love for dogs is evident, and his ability to connect with them is truly remarkable. Alex's attention to detail and exceptional care gave Whiskey a safe and comfortable environment. Whiskey came back home with so much trust and love - they had a great time together!! This is an example of Alex going the extra mile: It was a hot sunny day, instead of going to the park 50 meters away, Alex took Whiskey to the forest 1.5 km away to make sure he has shaded areas at all times. He then went out of his way to find a water pond that Whiskey can jump in to refresh. Alex treated Whiskey better than some dog ‚parents’ themselves treat their own. Experiencing this was so very reassuring. Alex's communication skills were also top-notch, keeping me informed about Whiskey's well-being and activities. He took the initiative to train my dog while he was with him (since he’s still young) and I gladly approved his request. It was a fantastic bonus that showed his commitment to the dogs he cares for. Whiskey responded extremely positively to the training, and I could see the lasting impact it has on his behavior. This is something I didn’t even get from professional trainers. I wholeheartedly recommend Alex as a dog sitter to anyone in need. His expertise, genuine care, and unwavering professionalism make him a true gem in the industry. Also note that the booking was done on a whim and Alex was available for the regular rate. Thank you, Alex, for taking such great care of Whiskey. I look forward to entrusting you with Kooks‘ care again in the future!

Alexander is a great sitter! He takes care to get to know your dog's personality and he adapts his care to their style. Very communicative, great updates, and always felt comfortable that my dog was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Bei mir zu Hause ist genügend Platz. Ich habe eine Wohnung in Blankenese mit Balkon und daher die Gelegenheit innerhalb von 5 Minuten in einen Park, zum Strand oder in den Wald zu gehen. Der Hund schläft im Wohnzimmer und hat es dort wohlig warm. Ebenfalls höre ich gerne heilende Frequenzen (wie zb Solfeggio Frequenzen) was auch eine beruhigende Wirkung auf Tiere hat (wird zb bei Tierärzten angewendet zur Beruhigung im Wartezimmer). Ansonsten wird es viel Zärtlichkeiten und Kuscheleinheiten geben sowie (falls gewünscht) gefiltertes Wasser zum trinken. There is enough space at my home. I have an apartment in Blankenese with a balcony and therefore the opportunity to go within 5 minutes to a park, the beach or the forest. The dog sleeps in the living room and has it there comfortably warm. I also like to listen to healing frequencies (such as Solfeggio frequencies) which also has a calming effect on animals (used by veterinarians to calm them in the waiting room). Otherwise, there will be a lot of tenderness and cuddles and (if desired) filtered water to drink.

Bitte sage mir vorab alle Eigenheiten des Hundes sowie der Rasse. Auch wenn ich selber gerne und viel über Hunde recherchiere, ist jeder Hund anders und individuell. Je präziser die Anleitung desto entspannter wird unsere Zeit Miteinander! Please tell me in advance all the peculiarities of the dog as well as the breed. Even though I like to do a lot of research about dogs myself, every dog is different and individual. The more precise the instructions, the more relaxed our time together will be!

A typical day

Wir werden morgens (1-2h), mittags (30-60min) und abends (1-2h) lange Spaziergänge, Fahrradtouren und einige Runden joggen gehen. 5 minuten von der Haustüre entfernt haben wir in Blankenese und Umgebung alles was das Hundeherz begehrt: Etliche Parks, schöne Strände, große Hundeauslaufwiesen und tolle Wälder. Uns wird definitiv nicht langweilig. Wir können jeden Tag der Woche eine andere Route gehen und uns so körperlich und geistig fit halten. We will go for long walks, bike rides and some rounds of jogging in the morning (1-2h), at noon (30-60min) and in the evening (1-2h). Approx. 5 minutes from the front door we have in Blankenese and surroundings everything the dog heart desires: Several parks, beautiful beaches, large fields for dog walking and great forests. We will definitely not get bored. We can go different routes every day of the week and keep ourselves physically and mentally fit.

Da ich selbständig und von zu Hause aus arbeite, gehe ich standardmäßig morgens, mittags und abends spazieren. Ich bin zeitlich flexibel und kann mir meinen Tag frei einteilen. Daher passt ein vierbeiniger Freund ideal in meine Tagesstruktur bzw. ich freue mich über Begleitung auf meinen Wegen rund um Blankenese. Since I am self-employed and work from home, I walk in the morning, at noon and in the evening by default. I am flexible in time and can arrange my day freely. Therefore, a four-legged friend fits ideally into my daily structure or I am happy about company on my ways around Blankenese.
