Pet care experience

An animal lover from the moment I was born

I’ve shared my life with dogs and cats for over 20 years, caring for them and loving them from day one. I’ve always made sure they have a life full of joy and affection. Nothing makes me happier than taking care of a little animal who depends on their parents to feel safe and loved — it’s pure love, given and received

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m at your home, I’ll always follow your rules. All I ask is that if you’d like me to stay the whole day, I can use your Wi-Fi to work and have some water from your kitchen. At my place, I have two sweet kittens who get along well with other pets. If your little one feels stressed around them, we can easily keep my kittens in different rooms and introduce them slowly and gently. My home is your pet’s home — there are no strict rules, so your fur baby can play and wander around freely unless you’d prefer otherwise. There are windows that cats love to look out of, and a cozy balcony perch just for them. Plus, I have plenty of dog and cat toys your little one can enjoy whenever they feel playful!

Drop-In Visits • mai 19, 2026

Manuel looked after our two cats while we were away and everything went very smoothly. He was reliable, easy to communicate with, and kept us updated, which gave us peace of mind. The cats were well looked after and happy when we came back. Nothing to complain about at all — we would happily book him again.

Dog Walking • mars 09, 2026

Manuel is extremely professional and gets the job done. My dog Oreo gets walked for 30 mins while I am away at work. I look forward to the pictures every afternoon. Thank you Manuel!

Doggy Day Care • juli 29, 2025

Ich gebe fünf Sterne, mein Hund hat es geliebt, hier zu sein, dass er nicht einmal mehr gehen wollte. Es war gut ernährt und die Touren wurden immer gut und pünktlich durchgeführt. Ich empfehle.

In der Zeit, in der er sich um meine Haustiere gekümmert hat, war er immer sehr liebevoll zu ihnen. Meine Hunde sind begeistert und wollen ihn immer wiedersehen, weil es für sie Spiel- und Spaßzeit bedeutet. Man merkt ihnen sofort an, wie glücklich sie sind, wenn man ihre Gesichter und das Schwanzwedeln sieht. Ich bin sehr zufrieden

Schedule

I work every day, but since I work from home, I can take care of your fur baby pretty much anytime you need me! The only time I’m away is Tuesday mornings, when I have to go into the office — but even then, I’m available from 5 PM onwards. So your little ones will always have someone to love and care for them whenever you need

It’s really important for me to know as much as possible about your pet before I care for them. I’d like to know their daily routine, favorite activities, any special needs, medical conditions, or allergies they might have. It’s also helpful to know how they react to other animals, new people, and being alone. The more I know, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
