Safety, trust & environment

Since I have worked with dogs for many years, I know when a dog feels unsafe or has anxiety and I will directly do everything to work against that.

Information Kathrin H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how your pet is and what they like, are they shy? Are they well with other dogs? Or do they prefer humans over dogs? Then I can adjust to its needs!

A typical day

It totally depends on the pet that I am watching. I will adjust to whoever is with me, if it’s a high energy talk that loves learning tricks, I will do so and make sure he gets his energy out. If it’s an older dog or a dog that just loves to cuddle, I will do so!

Pet care experience

I am the designated dog walker in my parents’ neighborhood and always took all the dogs on walks, no matter if they’re huge or tiny. I have also always grown up with dogs. I recently moved to New York for my first job, and now that I miss my family dog, I decided that I want to give all the love I have in me to dogs here in New York! :)

Kathrin is extremely reliable, responsive, and caring. She is flexible, communicative, and dependable. She went the extra mile to provide extraordinary care and long walks for our dog. Her updates were quick, transparent, and thorough. We will be booking again soon.

Kathrin is amazing. She has been with our dog for over 10 years and always cared for her as it was her own. She is lovely, playful, understanding to her but still shows who is in charge. If I had kids, I would trust her to take care of them, that’s how good of a caregiver to dogs she is. That is not just my opinion, all of our neighbors thought the same, they loved her walking their dogs as well, the ones with kids even asked her to babysit.. Just proving the point I made. Thank you for caring that much about our dog! Best wishes to you.

I can fully recommend Kath as a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter and walker. I have regularly used her service during the months before she left for NY. Kath immediately won the trust of my shy two-year old rescue dog from Greece. She is a very sensitive person and immediately read his body language and gave him the time to take the first step. She has great respect and love for animals. Soon Denver and Kath became great friends and he was overjoyed whenever she arrived to pick him up or sit him. Kath has such a great outgoing and fun personality which immediately reflects on her surrounding, pets and humans alike. We miss her a lot, as a dog sitter and walker but also as a great human being and friend!

Kathrin is a wonderfully loving dog mum and very much experienced and successful in teaching her dog as well as dogs of all kinds of breeds. My dog loves her showing it by jumping and squealing as soon as they meet. My dog and myself miss her.
