Hi! I'm Hande, an animal lover and experienced pet parent who has spent years caring for rescue animals, senior pets, and even exotic species.

I recently moved to Berlin and, while I love living here, I truly miss being surrounded by animals. Back home, I share my life with three rescue cats and have experience caring for a tarantula, as well as providing occasional dog sitting for friends and family.

My oldest cat, Kırık (6), was found after being hit by a car. His injuries were so severe that amputation was considered. With proper care, patience, and rehabilitation, he recovered far beyond expectations. Today he lives a happy life and still hops around like a little rabbit from time to time. Köri (4) came into my life in a very special way. Her mother gave birth right outside our front door, and she has been part of our family ever since. Luci (11) is a male Sphynx cat who was rescued from a breeding environment after being abandoned because he was infertile. Caring for Luci has given me valuable experience with senior cats, special needs, and animals that require extra patience and understanding. I also shared five wonderful years with my tarantula, Echo. Caring for him taught me that every animal, regardless of species, has unique needs, routines, and personalities that deserve respect and attention.

Because I have cared for animals with medical histories, special needs, and different temperaments, I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else's care. I treat every animal as if they were my own and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine.

In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience looking after dogs and cats for friends and family. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort zone, and I always adapt my care accordingly.

I am comfortable with:

• Feeding according to your pet's schedule
• Refreshing water and maintaining a clean environment
• Litter box cleaning
• Playtime and enrichment activities
• Brushing and basic grooming if your pet enjoys it
• Providing regular updates, photos, and messages while you are away

Having cared for senior pets, rescue animals, and a cat recovering from severe injuries, I pay close attention to changes in behaviour, appetite, mobility, and overall well-being. If I notice anything unusual, I will contact you immediately and follow any instructions you have provided.

My goal is simple: to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you are away.
