Pet care experience

Welcome to the "Hunde Haus" We usually host one household at the time but can make exceptions to be available for my repeat fur guests if compatible. Proof of current Vaccination documents are required and must be sent prior to stay. I have owned dog's most of my life. Since our beautiful 14-year-old Weimaraner passed, we have opened up our home to other family's pets and love meeting your fur-family members. I love to walk at the Causeway, Honeymoon Island Dog Beach, Hammock Park and Pinellas Trail or just around our neighborhood. Your pet would enjoy our home that has a lanai with a pool and a large fenced in backyard for convenient potty breaks or just to sunbathe and play. I look forward to taking care of your four-footed loved ones! Thanks for considering me!

Benny loves his stay with Elke! He’s well loved and is very happy while we’re away. Elke gives daily updates and photos/videos for us. She’s very in tune with our dog’s needs.

Elke and Michael did an amazing job with our 9 year old dog Benny. He’s a rescue and hasn’t always been particularly fond of men. He’s in love with Michael! And of course Elke too! They are very good at reading Benny & knowing how to handle his terrier personality. Benny is extremely noise sensitive to loud storms and fireworks. And of course there were storms while he was there. They were great at following our instructions and were able to get Benny through any tough times. And they were very forgiving when Benny had an accident in their house. Elke gave us daily updates, photos and pictures that eased our minds while he was away from us. They’re both 5 stars and I wish I could give them a higher score! Elke will be our go-to sitter when we need one. Many thanks for taking such precious care of Benny!

Elke and her husband did a fabulous job taking care of Pilot! He had such a wonderful time staying in their home. I received plenty of updates and didn’t worry a bit.

We just had Elke & Michael keep our Bella for a few days and our fear of traveling is FINALY over. They welcomed Bella into their home and she had a ball… Elke sent daily photos and videos and Bella seemed so happy and settled in I thought she would not want to leave. I am soooo happy that we found Elke and finally have a sitter that we have total confidence in.

Information Elke R. would like to know about your pet

In advance I would like to know the basic's: Likes and dislikes, needs, specific habits. We live in a great quiet neighborhood, and don't accept aggressive fur guests. I do require a meet & greet in our home beforehand for new fur guests, just to make sure that everything feels nice and comfortable.

A typical day

I love to walk and even took repeat fur guest on boat outings before. Of course, with permission, wavier and life vest and depending on your pet energy level, we could visit Hammock Park, Causeway or Honeymoon Dog Beach or just play, sunbath in our fenced in back yard. A basket full of toys (soft, hard, little, big, learning and squeaking something for anyone is always available, but can easley be put away.
