I’m home most of the day and spend plenty of time outdoors with my 14-year-old dog, Kiana. Every morning we enjoy an hour’s walk to the beach, and in the evenings we take a gentle 20-minute stroll. During the day we’re often out and about, and if any visiting dogs need extra toilet breaks or short walks, I’m always happy to take them out.

Safety, trust & environment
I live just outside the centre of Fuengirola, surrounded by green areas and walking paths. There’s a lovely 20-minute walk along the river that leads straight to the beach and if your dog enjoys swimming as much as mine, they’ll love having a dip in the sea. At home, I live in a bright penthouse with a secure 120 m² terrace where my senior dog and cats love to relax and sunbathe. Inside, there’s a ceiling-high cat tower with hammocks and cosy nooks where visiting cats can settle comfortably. Cats can stay safely indoors, or enjoy some sunshine on a long lead for added security. Dogs are welcome on the sofa and bed unless you prefer them crated. My home is calm, welcoming, and designed with every animal’s comfort in mind. Animal safety is always my top priority, every pet in my care is treated with the same patience, kindness, and attention as my own.

Information Dagmar .. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any quirks, triggers, or reactivity so I can manage their environment calmly and safely. It’s also helpful to know how they get along with other dogs and with cats, as this lets me introduce everyone gently and at their own pace. My cats usually keep their distance, but I always make sure all animals feel secure. I also need to know their medication routine, feeding schedule, and any allergies or foods they must avoid, including treats. These details help me keep your pet’s day consistent and comfortable. With the right information from you, I can tailor the day so your pet feels relaxed, confident, and well cared for. My own dog is reactive, so I’m very experienced in reading canine body language, managing situations and spotting early signs of stress.
A typical day
As my own dog is now a senior, our daily rhythm is a bit calmer and more gentle. A typical day starts with an hour’s walk to the beach, enjoying the beach, sea air, a dip in the sea when the mood strikes and taking things at an easy pace. During the day we wander through the green areas around my neighbourhood, follow the river path, and take plenty of relaxed sniffing breaks. Evenings are quieter with a short stroll and cosy time at home. When my dogs were younger, they came with me on mountain walks and longer hikes, and I’ve raised all my dogs and cats from puppies and kittens. I love teaching tricks and giving animals mental stimulation, yes even the cats. If I’m caring for a high-energy dog or a puppy, I always have a tennis ball or Frisbee ready and I’m happy to adapt the day so they’re active, engaged, and pleasantly tired by bedtime.

Loving, Reliable Care for Your Cats & Dogs
Pet care experience
Animals have always been part of my life. I currently share my home with a senior dog and two much-loved housecats who prefer the comfort of indoor life. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless dogs and cats, most of them rescues, and have helped many strays find safety, care, and eventually settle into loving homes. My love for animals extends beyond your usual pets; I’ve cared for a wounded tortoise, cared for fledglings and an injured baby hedgehog, and even hosted a barn owl who decided my home was a safe haven. These experiences taught me to listen to animals’ needs, to understand their emotions, fears, and personalities. I’ve completed training in dog obedience, animal psychology and behaviour, and have volunteered in the South African bush for animal conservation, an experience that deepened my understanding, respect and love for all creatures. Every animal deserves patience, kindness, and a gentle hand. I bring calm, compassion and understanding to every animal I meet, creating a safe, trusting space for them to feel at ease while you’re away.

Reviews
El mejor resumen: Douxie ha salido con una sonrisa de casa de Dagmar. Las fotos que nos ha enviado a lo largo de la estancia muestran atención, compañía, cariño, paseos largos de los que necesita la nuestra....en fin, todo lo deseable. Pero de nuevo, la forma en que se ha despedido Douxie, lo dice todo. Pediremos acogida a Dagmar muchas veces más!
Dragmar es una excelente persona, amante de los animales y su casa muy acogedora, Bea estuvo con ella se lo paso muy bien jugando estuvo muy bien cuidada. Dragmar siempre atenta enviándome fotos y vídeos, voy a llevarla siempre para que disfrute con sus nuevos amigos
Did a fantastic job with Shadow. Highly recommended.
Love the way Dagmar takes care of my Diris and Diris loves her too. Excellent doggy sitter and person.
