Pet care experience

Experienced sitter for all breeds

What sets me apart is my background and my ability to adapt to each individual dog. I’m currently studying for my Biology BSc as well as Complementary Veterinary Medicine (Tiernaturheilpraktikerin), giving me a deeper understanding of canine health and behavior. I have hands-on experience with rescue dogs, including reactive and shy dogs, and I’m confident caring for dogs with special medical needs. I’ve looked after dogs of all sizes (2–80 kg) and ages (5 months to 16 years), and adapt to each dog’s personality and energy level. Each day is tailored to your dog needs: Active walks, mental enrichment, or calm routines with relaxed sniff walks... My home is in a quiet area with direct access to forests and fields, providing a peaceful, enriching environment. I treat every dog as an individual and make sure they feel at home while you’re away.

Absolutely wonderful dog sitter! She took amazing care of my two dogs, Cora and Lola, and kept me regularly updated. I felt completely at ease and would happily book again.

Schedule

I am home all day, attend online class and therefore have a flexible schedule to care for your pet. I also take last minute requests when there is availability.

Safety, trust & environment

My home offers a safe and structured environment for dogs. The garden is fully fenced, and there is a pool with a secure cover that can safely support the weight of large dogs. Inside, dogs have access to most areas of the house (the kitchen and furniture are off-limits), with plenty of space to relax. The house can be divided into three separate areas, which allows me to give dogs their own quiet space if needed for rest, introductions, or dogs who prefer more distance. Dogs are not crated unless requested, as I aim to provide a calm, home-like environment. Of course, I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine, including crate use if that helps them feel more comfortable. I live with three other adult family members, all experienced and comfortable around dogs.

A typical day

I adapt to your dog’s needs and don’t have one strict activity schedule I follow for all dogs. Instead I prioritize their individual needs to minimize stress and ensure they’re safe and comfortable.
