Concept
Family-style, not a kennel.
Three principles that shape everything we do.
-
Part of the family
Your dog moves in. A 5-room flat in Hagen, garden, every room except the bedroom. A safe retreat space available around the clock.
-
Experienced trainer
Certified under §11 and §3, canine first-aid trained. Individual training tuned to each dog's needs (light, normal, or intensive).
-
Daily updates
Photos and videos on WhatsApp every day. Available any time for urgent questions, by phone too.
Welcome
How we get to know each other
We start with a free walk. You bring your dog along, we get to know each other, answer any open questions, and our dogs get to greet each other. If it feels right for both sides, we set up a paid trial day (six to eight hours).
On the trial day I get to know your dog and their needs in detail. I rate the training load (light, normal or intensive) and write a short assessment with concrete pointers for your everyday life and my focus areas in care.
If the trial goes well, long-term boarding is on the table. Up to four dogs at a time, selected with care for compatibility, with separate retreats when needed and a camera in the dog room for my safety and your peace of mind.
Daily routine
A typical day at Pawfect.
Tuned to each guest's needs. Clear structure, plenty of movement, deliberate rest.
Morning walk
About an hour with search games and obedience drills. Then breakfast and the first rest phase for mental balance.
Mid-day rest
Mental work or search games in between, depending on what each dog needs. Rest matters as much as exercise.
Second walk
40 to 60 minutes outdoors, often with swimming, cycling or tracking. Followed by another rest phase.
Evening walk
A final 40 to 60 minutes to wind down. Then dinner, and by 10 pm everyone is in bed.
Home
120 m² flat, big terrace, green part of Hagen.
David, our two ridgebacks Emma & Scar and I live in the middle of Hagen. Guest dogs are fully part of our daily life, with their own retreat space available around the clock. A camera in the dog room lets me check on your dog at any time.
