Hi, I'm Anna! I'm 26, trained as a scenic painter, and have recently started studying in the cultural field. Animals have always been a big part of my life. When I was a kid, I used to take the dogs from our neighbourhood for walks, and I also had four rabbits and a dwarf hamster of my own. I'd really love to have animals around me more regularly again, as it's something I genuinely miss in my everyday life. I've wanted a dog of my own for a long time, but unfortunately, it doesn't quite fit my current lifestyle. That's why I'm even more excited about the opportunity to spend time with and take care of your four-legged friend! Experience I spent six weeks volunteering at a dog shelter in Guatemala, where I looked after street dogs full-time. It was quite an experience! My days included everything from group feeding and taking care of dogs with skin conditions to digging out poop pits, going on walks, sharing my little bed with several dogs, cuddling and going on fun little adventures together. It was a really special experience, and I learned a lot about dog care, pack behaviour and how to handle different dogs and their individual needs. This year, I also took care of a dog who stayed at my place, including several 24-hour shifts. Walks & Location My walks usually last around 60–90 minutes, but I'm always happy to stay out longer if your dog enjoys it! In Berlin, I love going to Tempelhofer Feld, the dog park and along the canal. I'm also very happy to explore the neighbourhood around your home. My favourite areas to walk around are Neukölln, Kreuzberg and Treptow. Whether your dog loves long walks, sniffing around, playing with other dogs or just taking it easy, I'm happy to adapt to what makes them happiest! Day Care I'm a caring, reliable and attentive person who simply loves spending time with dogs. If you give me the opportunity to look after your dog, you can rest assured that they'll get lots of love, attention and cuddles. I'm always up for long walks, playing, relaxing together and, if you'd like, doing a little training as well. I really enjoy getting to know each dog's personality and finding out what they love doing most. In Case of an Emergency Before our first booking, we'll go through all the important details together, including your emergency contact, your vet and any special needs your dog might have, such as medication or allergies. If anything happens, I'll contact you straight away and take your dog to the vet if necessary. My Services Alongside my studies, I offer dog walking, occasional 24-hour care and home visits. My main focus is on dogs, and ideally, I'd love to find a regular dog-sitting arrangement. I think it's really nice when a dog and I get to know each other over time and build a little routine together. I'm really looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 🐾 (I speak german and english)
