Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Lars! If you torture your dog with a shock collar, then read no further because I am not the right one for you. I am an experienced dog trainer and am currently studying to become a dog behavior consultant. My passion belongs to dogs with behavioral problems, i.e. especially the dogs that are not socialized and are therefore aggressive towards other dogs. If your best pal stays with me, he is only allowed to do what is also allowed in your home as your darling should not get used to bad behavior while you are away. I can also train your dog during his stay with me. My family in Germany is the third generation to breed German Shepherds and I learned as a child what it looks like in the dog's soul. You can book me for everything that has to do with your dog, but also for cats, birds and all other non-human buddies who live in your house. Best wishes! Lars Tesch

Lars is THE BEST!!! I am usually very nervous about leaving my dogs to go on a trip, and being a concerned and anxious owner, I always select carefully the petsitting services that I entrust my pets to. When I met Lars, I got an immediate good feeling about his personality and about his approach to training/sitting dogs, it was evident to me that this is not just a job for him, and that he truly cares about all dogs. My first impression was confirmed during the day care stays, and later during our 20+ days long trip abroad. Lars has an incredible connection to dogs, understands their behavior and their way of thinking, respects them and knows how to get their respect and how to train them in a kind, gentle manner. He is very professional and compassionate and avoids any tools that are not humane. He treated our dogs like his own, gave them access to the whole house and even let them sleep with him and his own dogs, Aaron and Finn (whom, by the way are awesome, gorgeous and well-behaved). We came back to very happy, healthy, pampered dogs who had evidently been lavished with attentions, and treated like royalty. We are impressed by the professionalism, experience, competence and top-notch care that Lars provided to our dogs, and will be sure to use Lars for all our petsitting and training needs in the future, we consider ourselves lucky to have found him.

Lars is a terrific dog sitter! He clearly loves dogs and loves caring for them. We got regular updates and pictures. We are extremely confident in leaving our dog with Lars!

We left our Bernese Mountain Dog with Lars for about two weeks and will be turning to Lars in the future. He was great with our dog while we were gone and formed a clear bond. He sent us updates throughout the two weeks and was also quite flexible. Fantastic experience all around!
