I’m a lifelong dog lover with a special fondness for rescue dogs and big breeds like German Shepherds. I recently lost my beloved dog, Cato, whom I cared for his entire life, from a scared rescue puppy to a boisterous, high-energy adolescent, through his precious senior years and health challenges, until he passed at 14. Last year, I adopted another German Shepherd mix, Cosmo, and I’m happily starting the journey all over again 🩷. He’s currently a playful 1-year-old puppy, so I can only host one additional dog at a time, and they must be friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I have years of hands-on experience, particularly with large dogs, seniors, and those needing medication or extra attention. I know all the best dog-friendly spots in Berlin, from charming city parks to the idyllic lakes of Grünau and Grunewald. I understand how to read their body language, respect their routines, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I live in a 55sqm second-floor apartment; unfortunately, there is no elevator, so please keep this in mind for older dogs or dogs with mobility issues. My home has several rugs to provide a secure, non-slip surface. Dogs are always welcome on the furniture, and I have multiple cosy beds available to help them feel at home. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, or just a calm and caring presence, I’d be happy to provide it. If you have any questions or specific needs, feel free to reach out. I’d love to meet you and your pup! :)
