Happy Feet

Kathrin Simon

Even as a little girl animals were my hobby. Whether dogs, cats or rabbits.

I realized very early that I would like to work with animals professionally. Therefore I started my training as a veterinary assistant in 2002, which I successfully completed in 2005.

In 2007, I completed my training as a veterinary practitioner, among other things, to complement my specialist knowledge.

Since 2002 I have been caring for the most different animals.
In May 2015 I made my dream come true and opened my Animal Boarding House Happy Feet in Sandhausen.

In order to be constantly up to date and to improve my specialist knowledge, I regularly attend further training courses in the field of animal health and animal husbandry.
