About Katie

My name is Katie and I am from the US, living in Germany for 5 years now.

My happy place is with dogs and when dogs are happy. I have experience with sitting dogs, training dogs, walking dogs at the animal shelter, and of course having my own dogs at home (my whole life). 

There is also Bili, my sweet dachshund miniature pinscher mix that would be giving your dog some extra company while you are away. 

I live near the woods and go on walks with Bili often. I also work from home so the dogs are never really alone. 

I live alone but my boyfriend is also often here and loves dogs just as much as I do. 

You can expect many updates and pictures during the stay. The dogs will also get of course a lot of love and (if desired, dependent on age etc) exercise.

We are open to all dogs that are fully vaccinated. Small dogs are great for Bili, but big dogs that are accepting of little dogs are also of course very welcome. 

Please feel free to ask me any questions at all. We are happy to arrange a meet and greet and let you see our house. Our house is on the small side but still plenty of room for the dogs. 

Looking forward to meeting new pups!

Katie was an amazing caretaker of our beloved Rosie dog. Super communicative and understanding and I felt so comfortable leaving Rosie with her and her family. She’s very professional and kind. Highly recommend.
