Which weeks book out first for cat sitting in Dortmund?
The weeks owners travel: the Sommerferien and the run from Weihnachten to Neujahr, then the shorter Osterferien and Herbstferien. Because the summer holidays are staggered by Bundesland, the busy stretch in Dortmund starts and ends on its own state's calendar rather than a national one, so check yours and open those dates early. On a winter visit, confirm the heating is still on and the home has not gone cold before you leave.
