About Han-Run

We are dog owners ourselves and know how hard it is for you to leave your dog with strangers.

Hi, we are Maggie, Han-Run and 6 year-old Pomeranian Kyoko. We will try to make it feel like leaving your baby with your family & friends.

About us 🙋🏻‍♂️🐶🙋🏻‍♀️

We are both 31 years old, happily married and original Berliners.

Our biggest passion is to spend time with all kinds of dogs.
Ever since we can remember, we had a special love for animals: 2 bunnies, 2 birds and 1 dwarf hamster during childhood have already been part of our extended family. However, our biggest love has always belonged to dogs, we just did not have the opportunity to own a dog for a long time. Instead, I (Han-Run) was volunteering for many years during my studies at a professional doggy daycare.

Then finally, when the Coronavirus pandemic kept the whole world on their toes, we saw the opportunity coming to adopt our own dog: We knew that our companies will allow us to work from home for most of the time. That's when we found Kyoko and when Kyoko found us. Kyoko is a white, fluffy, male Pomeranian. What is most special about him? He is just such a gentle soul.

At some point we thought - we anyways have to make sure that someone always stays with Kyoko and takes 4 walks a day, why not just adding one more dog to our pack with no extra effort? That's when we thought of offering dogsitting services: We get to enjoy meeting different dogs, Kyoko can have some fun with additional playmates and we are able to provide a warm and caring home for dogs who have to spend some time apart from their parents... it's a win-win-win!

We both work at Berlin-based tech startups (Maggie is in Sales, Han-Run in Product Management) and work from home most of the time. That's how we can make sure that at least one of us can always stay at home and be with Kyoko as well as the guest dogs.

As owners of a small Pomeranian ourselves, we know that extra level of care it is needed when it comes to smaller dog breeds. For example, we know that they are particularly prone to knee problems and avoid walking stairs by taking elevators or carrying them if needed. Or we know that extra attention is needed when it comes to encounters with bigger dogs in the park and prefer to be "rather safe than sorry". That's why we decided to specialise in the care of smaller dog breeds, in order to provide the best possible dogsitting experience for our guest dogs and so that dog parents will know that their babies will be in the best hands.

As we ourselves would never leave Kyoko with strangers that we have never met before, we are always available to meet for a playdate before you place a booking with us, so that you can get to know us and Kyoko before you give your baby into our care.

And last but not least, we know that you will miss your baby so badly while being apart, hence we always provide a lot of videos and photos every day so that you will still feel close to your dog and see for yourself how well she is doing with us! 

About the area 🏞🌳🏡

We live in the wonderful district of Spandau Hakenfelde. Yes, it is a bit further away from downtown - but therefore it is the perfect place to be for dogs (and don't worry about it being so far to your place - we do offer Berlin-wide pick-up and drop-off service on weekends for overnight stays)! The area offers a huge variety of different parks, waterside promenades and forests. There is up to 5 different routes within walking distance that we visit regularly with Kyoko and our guest dogs. Literally right in front of our building there is a wide green lawn.

We live in a spacious 4-room flat. Our dogs are allowed in all rooms, so your baby will have a lot of space to feel at home and find a place to retreat if needed. Dogs are not allowed onto our bed, but we happily invite all our guest dogs for lengthy cuddling sessions on the couch while we watch TV. Besides that, we also have plenty of dog beds and blankets distributed across the flat and in every room - so nobody has to fight over a sleeping place. 😇

About our service 🦮🐾🦴

- 🚙 We provide Berlin-wide pick-up and drop-off service on weekends for overnight stays (minimum stay of six nights)

- 🐶 We are specialised in the care of small dogs up to 8 kg (e.g. super careful when meeting bigger dogs on walks)

- 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 We never leave our guest dogs alone at home at any time (we can ensure that since there is two of us and at least one of us can always be with the dogs)

- 📸 We send lots and lots of photos and videos of your baby multiple times throughout the day so that you can feel close to your baby despite being apart and don't have to worry

- 🏡 We have 4 rooms in our flat and plenty of dog beds / blankets, so there's a lot of space for our guest dogs to feel like home

- 🏞 We take 4 walks every day in one of the 5 green areas that are within walking distance of our home (including waterside, parks, forests etc.)

- 🙌 You only need to provide us with your dog's regular food and something that smells like your baby - everything else (e.g. food bowl, bed, treats) we already have available in abundance

We would love to give your dog a warm home and look forward to your message!

Our calendar is always up-to-date - reach out to us to book a stay or if you have any more questions!
Of course it is also possible to have a casual playdate and meetup before you place the booking.
