I work from home full-time, which means your dog will have constant company throughout the day — no long hours alone. When I'm briefly unavailable, my girlfriend is always around, so there's always a familiar face nearby. We're available every day of the week, with no fixed rigid schedule: we adapt entirely to your dog's needs and habits. As a general routine, we take dogs out for three walks a day, but the length and pace always depend on factors like the dog's age and energy level, the weather, and any specific instructions from the owner.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog's safety and comfort are our top priority. Since we're home most of the day, your pet is never left unsupervised — there's always at least one of us present. Before any booking, we always offer a free meet-and-greet at our place, so your dog can explore the environment, get familiar with us, and most importantly — show us they feel comfortable and trust us. We genuinely believe this step makes all the difference: we only move forward if the dog is relaxed and at ease. We follow the owner's instructions carefully and stay in regular contact with updates throughout the stay, so you always know how your dog is doing.

Information Dimitri A. would like to know about your pet

Please share anything relevant about your dog before the stay for example: food schedule, medical needs, behavioural quirks, things they're afraid of, or how they are around other dogs and childrens. The more I know upfront, the better I can make them feel at home.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a morning walk to explore the neighbourhood, followed by some playtime at home. During the day there's plenty of rest, cuddles and mental stimulation. In the afternoon we head out again sometimes to the nearby park for a proper run. Three walks a day as a baseline, adjusted to the dog's age and energy level.

Love and Care While You're Away.

Pet care experience

I grew up surrounded by animals in a small Italian town, and my passion for dogs has been part of my life since childhood. I'm a dog owner myself — my dog Nessie is back in Italy looking after my mum, and honestly, she's more like a little sister to me than a pet. So I genuinely understand the anxiety of leaving your dog with someone new. That's exactly why I take this seriously. Over the years, caring for the pets of family and friends has given me solid experience in reading animal behavior, understanding individual needs, and adapting routines accordingly.I'm constantly expanding my knowledge on dog behavior, communication, and welfare — so every pet under my care benefits from an informed and up-to-date approach. That said, I won't attempt to discipline or train your dog without your explicit consent — my primary goal is simply to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work from home, so your pet will have constant company. As a photographer and designer by background, I'll make sure to capture some genuinely good shots of your dog while you're away not just quick phone snaps, but real pictures worth keeping. I only accept vaccinated pets and, before any longer stay, I always suggest a short trial (Max 40 minutes)so both the dog, the owner and me can make sure it's a good fit.

Dimitri has been great taking care of little Dalí! I am super grateful that we found Dimitri as a dogsitter and I can only recommend him. He has a lot of patience and experience with cheeky dogs like dachshunds (Dalí is a miniature dachshund full of personality and some quirks, not for everyone). He quickly grasped my dog's needs and responded perfectly - with a lot of play time and love. Dalí gets so excited when he seems him and, whenever we come near Dimitri's flat, he instantly want to run to their door - a clear sign that he is getting a 5* treatment and enjoying spending time with Dimitri

Mein Hund Pippo war schon bei ein paar Hundesittern, aber Dimitri ist einfach der beste. Deshalb lasse ich ihn jetzt nur noch bei ihm, wenn ich mal ohne Hund unterwegs sein muss. Sowohl für ein paar Stunden als auch für einige Tage und Übernachtungen am Stück. Ich merke, dass Pippo sich bei ihm wohlfühlt - er freut sich schon auf dem Weg die Treppen rauf - und dort einfach gut aufgehoben ist und viel Aufmerksamkeit bekommt. Außerdem freue ich mich auch immer, über die vielen Updates und Fotos. Pippo sieht auf den Bildern immer entspannt und glücklich aus und das gibt mit ein gutes Gefühl.

Dimitri has looked after Platone on several occasions, and I couldn’t be happier to have found such kind person for my dog. Plato is a dog who loves to play, and Dimitri understood that right away—which is how he won him over. When we arrive at Dimitri and Sara’s house, Plato runs happily up the stairs and forgets all about me. That just shows how happy he is to be there. One thing I really love are the updates Dimitri sends me, with beautiful photos of Plato playing or sleeping. Highly recommended!

Dimitri regularly looks after our terrier Bruno. Bruno isn’t the easiest but loves staying with Dimitri. This allows me to leave him behind without any bad feelings. They always play a lot together and he sends us great pictures. Dimitri is very responsible and reliable. We couldn’t wish for a better second home for our dog.
