Pet-lover with too little animals in her life

Pet care experience

Having had a dog for 14 years, I am very much used to taking care of dogs: I am very familiar with walking, feeding, bathing, playing, cuddling, or anything they might need. I have also taken care of friends’ and family dogs, and have always been very dedicated and responsible. For half a year, I also lived with ten (!) cats, four of them being kittens, and I learned how to best care for them and what cats need. I consider myself to be a responsible, caring, and patient person who more than anything understands that pets are not possessions nor display items, but instead living beings in themselves who deserve to be treated with respect and care. With pets, I love to do a great variety of activities: from taking long and relaxed walks around parks, forests, or just around the block (if the pet prefers that, hihi), to cuddling, to playing and running around. But of course, I understand if it is just the first one - my dog was a very calm dog who enjoyed the slowness of life - and I love to adapt to that as well. :)

Berta ist die tollste Betreuung die man sich für seinen Hund vorstellen kann.

Berta has been a responsible and very attentive watcher of my dog Boenkie (poodle) including times when he was still a demanding puppy. Berta observed Boenkie's needs well, was enthusiastic about playing with him and also careful during walks. She payed attention during the walks to the location of Boenkie, traffic, and other dogs and people. Boenkie had a good time with her.

Berta used to take care of my cat regularly. Berta was an amazing caregiver, allowing my cat all the space she needs but also making sure she receives all the attention she wants. My cat, who’s usually difficult with strangers, loved her. I can highly recommend Berta as a caregiver!

I have known Berta for over 6 years now and she has always been good with pets, especially with dogs since she used to have one. Although I know that she also loves cats and would love taking care of one. Plus I know that pets love her the same way, since they are always happy to play with her or to be petted by her.

Safety, trust & environment

I will make sure to be as caring and responsible as possible in all of the services that I offer. I believe that with pets it is very important to always ask the owner what they feel comfortable with and what their pet needs - after all, every animal is different and has different needs. So I will always make sure to ask what preferences the owner has (e.g. walks with or without a leash, if the dog needs any medication, etc.). I have taken care of many different pets - some calmer, some more energetic - and with all I have been able to adapt to keep them as safe as possible. I have experience with training dogs (which I believe should be done through a lot of care and patience) and also with taking care of sick animals.

Information Berta N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special needs that your pet needs, or if they have some behaviors that I should be on the lookout for. I would also appreciate it if you let me know what I can do to make you feel the most at ease and how I can best ensure your pet’s safety.

A typical day

With more active dogs, I love to go out on long walks to parks and, if they feel comfortable with that, maybe even let them play with other dogs. I love to also play games with them and get them as excited as possible. Running and playing with toys together is one of my favorite things to do with them. However, I also feel super happy with calmer animals; as I said, my dog used to be a very calm dog who loved her peace and quiet, especially when she was older. I love to take them on walks that best suit them and simply take care of their needs while at home, be it cuddling or giving them their space if they need it.

I am currently working full-time at the environmental NGO BUNDjugend and therefore do not usually have time from 9 to 4 during the weekdays. However, I would have time before or after my workday to take care of pets, or in the weekends, where I am available most of the time. I am very flexible with my time and will happily adapt to your schedule whenever I can :) In the case of having pets staying over, I will most likely have my boyfriend who I live with take care of them as well - especially in the moments where I am unable to be home so that the pets are never alone. He is an incredibly caring and responsible person and has 5+ years of experience with dog- and catsitting - in the case that you would have your pet stay at our place, you are of course very welcome to get to know him as well before allowing us to take care of your pet.
