Dog Boarding

Konstantinos, 01-09-2024

We had the pleasure of having Dieter and Mayu as pet sitters for our dog for nearly a month, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. They provided exceptional care, going above and beyond our expectations. Every day, we received wonderful videos and photos showing how happy and well-cared-for our dog was. Their communication was excellent, and it was clear that they truly loved our dog as their own. We highly recommend Dieter and Mayu to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet sitters. Thank you guys!

Matteo is everything you could hope for in a dog sitter! He's exceptionally kind, flexible, and truly fantastic with dogs. My dog absolutely loved spending time with him. Matteo took him on a long walk through the forest and kept him entertained and happy all day. I received regular updates, photos, and videos, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Matteo to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!
