Dog Sitting in West Berlin

About: Hi! I’m Krystal, a dependable and compassionate pet lover who has been around dogs my entire life and a proud dog owner throughout my adult years. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m also a special education teacher and a mom of two, which has shaped me into someone who is patient, attentive, and highly responsible. My background has strengthened my ability to understand different needs, follow routines closely, and provide calm, consistent care—qualities that translate perfectly to working with pets of all personalities. Since I’m off during the summer, I have increased availability and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care during the day—perfect for pets who need extra time, supervision, or companionship. I understand how important communication is when someone else is caring for your pet. I make it a priority to keep you updated with messages and photos so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to provide safe, reliable, and caring support. I’d love to meet you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a special education teacher, I’m very used to following structured schedules, being attentive to individual needs, and staying consistent—qualities I bring into caring for pets as well. During the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and extended time with pets who may need extra attention or companionship. During the school year, I’m available in the mornings, evenings, and weekends, and I make sure to plan my schedule carefully so every pet receives dependable, consistent care. As a dog owner myself, daily walks, feeding routines, and quality time with pets are already a regular part of my life, so incorporating additional pet care is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. When caring for pets, I always focus on keeping them comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any specific preferences you share. I make sure pets feel safe in their familiar environment while also giving them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. As a special education teacher, I’m naturally patient, attentive, and responsive to individual needs, which helps me adjust my care based on each pet’s personality—whether they’re energetic, shy, or need a little extra support. I also prioritize communication and will send regular updates and photos so you always feel confident your pet is being well cared for.

About: Hi! I’m Shani, an attentive, responsible and compassionate caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I have a professional background in supporting individuals of all ages and abilities. I bring patience and strong communication skills to each job. I have experience coordinating and managing schedules. I ensure the well-being of those in my care. I am naturally skilled at providing safe, structured, and loving care for dogs, cats and other pets. I’m detail-oriented, and comfortable handling routines, while still being laid-back. I am confident I can handle you and your pet's needs - whether that means consistent walks, feeding schedules, or special instructions. I also work one-on-one with clients, giving me the ability to read behavior, adapt quickly, and personalize the relevant kind of attention—which is just as important for pets as it is for people.

Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, companionship during the day, or attentive overnight care, I’ll treat them like my own—with kindness, respect, and affection. Feel free to reach out—I’d love to meet you and your pet. I mostly work from home and I have a flexible schedule so I enjoy my play time with my furry buddies or walks outside as an enjoyable part of my day. I have room indoors and outdoors for playing, a big fenced grassy backyard and a quiet neighborhood to explore for our walks. I can host pets at my house or come visit them at yours.

“Alicia is awesome!! She has been looking after our pup for over half a year, and he feels so comfortable around her! Alicia is always very communicative, and I love having peace mind knowing how experienced she is with animals. Sometimes, she can’t accommodate the afternoon times we need during the work week due to other work obligations, but she always keeps us in the loop well in advance. Thank you, Alicia!!”

About: I grew up on a farm with many types of animals and learned to care for all different disciplines, breeds, and needs of dogs- no breed discrimination here! I took training classes and have trained 7 dogs to be more obedient on walks and have experience in basic commands. All products I use in my house are pet-friendly and organic, and I keep them all locked in cabinets. I am very flexible when it comes to your pet's needs- whether they prefer to stay inside most of the day or they are super active and want to play all day, I will adjust my schedule to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away! If you let me know your fur babies’ schedule, rules, and what they love, and I will make sure you can have a worry-free trip! Pets are my #1 focus during a stay. I am consistently monitoring and engaging to ensure a comfortable and relaxed stay. I also will take tons of photos and send them all your way! I am currently working part time, and I will disclose my work schedule if it overlaps with a stay. My workday is flexible and allows for many free hours in the day! I ensure I am with the pets as much as possible while in my home, or in yours! If the stay is overnight, I follow any house rules and make sure the pets are all comfortable.

“Katie was excellent with my boy Gianni! This was the first time I did anything like this, going away, family usually helped me out. She paid attention to my over the top details of what I do with Gianni. I felt reassured, and comfortable with her and that Gianni would be in good hands. Her daily updates and pics of G, were also very reassuring for me. I will def be in contact with Katie for future trips and would suggest using Katie for your little loved fur babies. I am glad I met Katie and did this. 5 stars from me and Gianni!!!”

About: I used to work at boarding/doggy daycare facility for two years so I have experience with walking dogs, properly taking care of them, and keeping them safe and clean! I miss working work animals and I’m excited to start again! I do work a full time job, but i do have off every other weekend and am available every day during the week between 8am and 2pm. I would love for my clients to tell me about their fur baby, ex. Any behavior or things their baby may or may not like and their home, ex. If they have a fenced in yard or not. All of this or any information is helpful so I know how to best keep your baby safe!

“Marley was awesome with my cat! She stopped by every other day and took great care of him, and it was such a relief knowing he was happy and well cared for while I was away. My cat clearly felt comfortable with her, and I really appreciated how reliable and caring Marley was. I’d happily ask her to watch Avery again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great cat sitter! 🐾”

About: I am a lover of all animals! I have had a passion for them ever since I was very young and strived to make a career out of it! As an adult, I have experience with both cats and dogs. I am experienced in administering medications oral and injections. I have actively volunteered at animal shelters comforting different breeds, big and small, playing, walking, cleaning up after them, or just giving them a friend to hang out with. In addition to my unique background, I have been in senior care for 8 years. I have experience with helping those elders in need including caring for their pets when needed. I run activity programs with seniors, which frequently includes pet therapy groups for sensory stimulation for elders. I currently work full time, but I am available all hours after work around 4:30 PM. My nights are rather quiet and always searching for something to do. My weekends are flexible so if you are in need of a weekend getaway, I can be there! Most of my holidays are open as well so your furry friend will be in good hands! I have experience giving medication to dogs and cats. I definitely enjoy having some down time with them but also making sure they get taken care of physically. I love playing with them

“Madison was great. I felt confident in her from the meet and greet. Madison is a genuine and honest person. She has a natural interest in cats, she wants to take good care of them and she does, taking no short cuts.”

“Amy was absolutely amazing! Made me feel completely at ease to leave my 13 year old Maltipoo in her hands. She also had me fill out paperwork for more detail on Stella which was amazing that I didn’t have to think to leave instructions! We will be using Amy again for Stella for sure!”
