Pet care experience

Gentle walks, calm care, and happy pets in Potsdam

Besides caring for my own furry family members, I have traveled across Europe, Southeast Asia, and South Africa as a trusted pet sitter. During this time, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals of all kinds: from energetic pups to quirky rescues and gentle seniors. I always take time to understand each pet’s individual routine and personality. As a naturally introverted person, I rely on animals for social connection, and being able to earn an income while spending time withe them makes this the perfect student job for me. I am just beginning to learn German, so your pets might not understand me right away, but I’m confident I’ll win them over!

House Sitting • Jan 10, 2026

We couldn’t have asked for a better house and pet sitter than Annegret. She looked after our dog and kitten in our home for a full week, and it was clear from the start that they were in wonderfully caring hands. Both pets were very well looked after, and all medications were given reliably and with great care. Annegret showed fantastic initiative throughout our time away and kept everything running smoothly. Her warm, kind personality really shines through, and our pets were relaxed and happy when we returned. We would wholeheartedly recommend Annegret to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring sitter.

Annegret was an absolute gem with our pets (one dog, cat and hamster). She was on time, highly communicative, respectful and lovely person to have watch my furries. I really appreciated that she kept the house clean and the pets seemed very happy. I would defintely ask her to furry-sit again.

Annegret was quite nice for our small baby. She brings along her calm demeanour which helps the dogs to relax and get rid of anxiety quite fast. Even better she tried to understand the schedule our dog follows and tried to keep up to that which I feel is very nice, given that our dog is still a puppy. I really liked her service and can clearly recommend her to others.

Annegret is a loving and caring pet sitter . Soft spoken and gentle and engaged . She not only cared for my 4 cats while I was away but played and talks to them. When I came home I found that she even bought them toys and bought them treats which melted my heart . I was able to enjoy my break away from home without having to worry if my furrbabies were cared for the way I wanted them to. Annegret is an honest and kind person , we are still in touch even after her pet sit was over .

I highly recommend Annegret Coetzee as a pet caregiver. She has extensive experience caring for animals and has owned pets herself, which shows in her natural understanding of their needs and personalities. Annegret is a trustworthy and responsible person who treats every pet as if it were her own. Her gentle and loving nature makes animals feel safe and comfortable around her, and she always goes the extra mile to ensure they are happy, healthy, and well cared for. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or simply spending quality time with them, she brings genuine care and attention to every moment. Any pet owner can have complete peace of mind knowing their furry friend is in Annegret’s care.

I’ve travelled with Annegret across a few countries while we looked after pets together, and honestly, she’s amazing with animals. She has this calm, gentle energy that even the most nervous pets seem to trust right away. I’ve seen her go from walking huge, excitable dogs to coaxing shy cats out from under the bed — always patient, kind, and totally in tune with what each animal needs. She takes her time to get to know them and keeps everything super tidy and organized wherever we stay. Pet owners love her because she’s reliable and communicative, but what really stands out is how genuinely she cares. Every pet we’ve looked after ended up following her around like she was their favorite human. I’d recommend her to anyone without hesitation!

Safety, trust & environment

While pet-sitting, I’m always weighing risk against your pet’s enjoyment. I lean toward caution, but I’m happy to let your dog off-leash in clearly safe areas. I always follow any specific instructions you provide for their routine or behavior. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain a clean, organized environment and respect personal space. I follow feeding schedules, administer medications as directed, and make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and loved while you’re away.
