Animal lover with plenty of time and lots of love

Pet care experience

Being born into a family of animal enthusiasts, I've had the privilege of sharing my entire life with non-human friends (dogs, cats, hamsters, fish). This influenced me deeply, shaping my perspective on the world and fostering a deep connection with nature. Caring for animals and ensuring their well-being has therefore become an intrinsic part of my identity. Throughout my life, I have always cherished the opportunity to spend time with animals and assume the responsibility of their care. Even during my school years, I proudly took on the role of the trusted pet sitter for my friends whenever their families went on vacations or needed help of any kind. The last years, I was dedicated to the care of an elderly cat, ensuring her final years were filled with the utmost care and love after a challenging life she endured. After her departure end of last year, I have again time, affection, and energy to share with other furry companions while their families are away.

Valentina was taking care of my maine coon cat Otto around 10 days. BEST choice ever, Valentina and Mark are super good and caring with Otto. Their place is amazing for cats, they have a big window where Otto loved to see the birds and observe everybody. I was so secure and relieve leaving Otto in their hands as they provided and amazing attention and taking care like totally owners. I was receiving pictures daily and she was telling me how Otto was behaving. I recommend Valentina and Mark 200% without a doubt. Super trustful and I had no concerns since the first moment that I met her. I will continue with Valentina as long as I am living in Berlin❤️

Valentina and her partner were the best people to take care of our dog Carlson! She is a true animal-lover, which we felt from the very first second until the end. She also was flexible in extending the booking to our needs and sent updates as as often as we wanted.

About my motivations: Animals hold an special place in my heart. They mean so much to me that I am shaping my professional career around defending their rights and advocating for their well-being. When entrusted with the care of any cat or doggo, rest assured they will have all the love, attention, and the utmost care they deserve. While missing my own cat for the last few months, being in the presence of other animals not only brings me joy but also provides a soothing experience for me.

Information Valentina G. would like to know about your pet

When it comes to any animal, it's important to understand their habits: what, when, and how much they eat, where they like to take their naps, the usual times they go for walks or engage in specific activities, and if they require any special attention beyond standard care (e.g., if they have a sensitive fur that needs daily brushing or if they are taking any medication or undergoing any treatments). Also, discovering each fluffy ball's personality is always a pleasure, together with all the insights provided by their family.

A typical day

I absolutely love going for long walks, playing around, and taking them to dedicated dog parks where they can freely interact with others of their kind. Also, brushing and petting them belong to my favorite activities :)

I work 100% from home, which gives me great flexibility in my schedule, both during the week and on weekends so that I can easily adapt to each pet’s routine. I live in a spacious apartment (70m²) in the ground floor, with a nice garden, providing more than enough space for any dog or cat to relax and play throughout the day. The flat is also 2mins away walking from the Hasenheide park, which has a really big dog area, and is also very close to many other nice dog-friendly walking areas such as Tempelhof or the Landwehr canal. For dogs, daily walks are a special moment to stimulate them mentally and physically. To ensure they have the best experience, I plan ahead and seek out possible routes where they can connect with nature and socialize with other furry friends. I always strive to make each outing a new adventure by exploring different paths. When it comes to cats, depending on their personality, there’s a nice garden in which they could explore a bit while being supervised or with a leash. But there’s always the option of not letting them outside, of course :)
