Dog care fits very naturally into my daily life. I run my own business and work fully from home, which allows me to structure my days around the dogs in my care rather than fitting them into fixed office hours. My days are calm and flexible, with plenty of time for walks, play, rest, and companionship. I’m home working most of the day, so dogs are rarely left alone and always have someone nearby. Walks are spaced throughout the day based on each dog’s individual routine and needs. I love spending time outdoors and usually plan my schedule around regular walks and fresh air, which makes dog sitting a joyful and grounding part of my days. Walks are never rushed, and I’m happy to adjust the frequency and length depending on what your dog is used to and what helps them feel best. Because I don’t have pets of my own anymore, I can fully focus on the dog staying with me and adapt my routine to their needs. Whether your dog enjoys an active day outside or prefers a calmer rhythm, I make sure they feel relaxed, safe, and at home.

About Katja Z.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for dogs in a calm, safe, and respectful environment, always following their usual routines as closely as possible. When dogs stay in my home, they are rarely left alone and are treated as part of daily life - with plenty of rest, outdoor time, and attentive care throughout the day. My home is dog-proof and comfortable. Dogs are very welcome to bring their own bed, blankets, or familiar items if they want, as this often helps them settle in more easily and feel at home. I’m flexible with pick-up and drop-off (car available, charge does not apply when it's within walking distance), or owners are welcome to bring their dog and belongings themselves.

Information Katja Z. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for your dog, I appreciate knowing about their personality, energy level and behaviour, as well as any sensitivities, anxieties, or triggers, so that they can feel safe and relaxed in my care.
A typical day
I love making each day enjoyable and balanced for the dogs in my care. Activities are always adapted to their age, energy level, and personality. My days are focused on calm presence, comfort, and a steady rhythm. At home, days are very calm and relaxed, and I love taking them on walks to the park, in the woods and along the water.

Flexible dog care with heart
Pet care experience
I have 10+ years of dog care experience and have been actively dog sitting for many years, including over four years in my home country Switzerland, where I built long-term relationships with families who kept coming back to me again and again. Many of the dogs I cared for stayed with me regularly, which allowed us to build trust and familiarity. In addition to Switzerland, I’ve also cared for dogs internationally in different home environments, supporting families while living and working abroad. This has helped me become very adaptable and attentive to each pet’s individual routines and needs. I run my own freelance business and work fully from home, which means dogs in my care are rarely left alone. I’m present, attentive, and able to adapt my day to your dog’s individual needs - whether that’s more frequent outside time, longer walks, extra cuddles, or simply a calm, steady routine. I love being outdoors, so walks are never rushed, and I also offer regular photo and message updates if you wish, so you always know how your dog is doing. My goal is simple: To offer your dog a calm, loving second home where they feel safe, relaxed, and truly cared for while you’re away 🤍 I’m looking forward to meeting you! :) Katja
Reviews
Great communication, Billy was very happy to stay with Katja :)
Bästa hundvakten. Vi rekommenderar Katja till alla som letar pålitlig och kärleksfull hundvakt. Skickar regelbunden uppdatering och en massa fina bilder från promenader, utflykter och mys i soffan. Bästa betyget är från vår hund som inte ville åka med oss hem när vi skulle hämta.
Katja was great! Super kind and flexible! Sheldon had a great time, she sent pictures and updates every day! When we picked him up he was super happy and comfortable, 😍 we will definitely be booking her again in the future! Thank you for taking great care of my pup!
Bästa hundvakten! Vi känner oss mycket trygga med att lämna Enzo hos Katja, hon tar väl hand om honom och skickar löpande uppdateringar om hur det går. Snabba svar och fin kånsla för både hund och ägare.
