Animal loving trustworthy sportive female loves to care for your pets

About this sitter

Hi, I’m Katrin, a German living on the beautiful Canary Islands. I speak German, Spanish, and English, and I’m a mature, reliable, and highly organised person who values a tidy and clean environment.

I love spending time outdoors and staying active—running, cycling, swimming, long walks in the countryside or along the beach, especially with dogs. Yoga and Pilates are part of my regular routine, and I also enjoy reading and relaxing with pets.

I follow a healthy, vegan lifestyle, and I don’t smoke or drink. I work online, so a stable Wi-Fi connection is important to me.

Above all, I’m an animal lover and someone who appreciates peace, nature, and a calm, well-kept home.

Why they want to house sit

I love housesitting because it gives me the chance to experience real life in villages and towns, rather than just passing through as a tourist. For me, the best part is caring for pets—I find it incredibly rewarding to spend time with them, keep them happy, and provide the comfort they need while their owners are away.

Being vegan and health-conscious, I enjoy shopping locally and preparing my own meals, which makes staying in someone’s home feel much more like living there than just visiting. Having had a dog myself, I know how much it means to leave your beloved pet in trusted hands, and I genuinely love giving owners peace of mind.

I’ve used MindMyHouse.com both as a sitter and an owner, and I find it the perfect way to connect with fellow animal lovers, enjoy authentic experiences, and, of course, make sure the pets are well cared for.

Their experience

So far, I’ve had the opportunity to housesit in several places in the UK, the Netherlands, and Spain, where I met wonderful people, adorable dogs, and charming cats. After a break during the pandemic, I reactivated my account on this website. While not all previous reviews are available anymore, I continue to enjoy providing pets and their owners with care, attention, and a sense of reassurance.

What can they bring to the assignment

I bring extensive experience caring for animals, having been a dog owner for over 20 years. Earlier, I also had a horse for 20 years, and I’ve looked after many dogs and cats for friends and neighbours, in addition to my housesitting opportunities on MMH.

Every pet has its own personality, and I’m always eager to learn and adapt to their individual needs. I stay in touch with owners during their absence and happily send pictures of their furry friends if they wish.

In addition to caring for pets, I take good care of the house and plants whenever required.
