Every dog deserves an island adventure — and every owner deserves peace of mind.

Hello, I’m Anneke, and this is Cookie – my adventurous Cockerpoo who has been my travel companion around the world. Our nomadic journey somehow led us to the beautiful island of Koh Chang, Thailand — and we instantly fell in love.

But we soon faced a familiar question every dog parent knows:

When you want to do a avtivity where you‘re dog is not welcome, need to work, or take a short trip to an other city…

Where can your beloved pet stay safely, happily, and with love?

That’s when I met a trusted local woman, Cookie’s amazing dog-sitter with a heart of gold, who soon became my business partner and future manager. Where European precision meets Thai warmth. Together, we’re two women with one mission: to give every dog-loving traveler, expat, and local on Koh Chang a place where tails wag freely and hearts feel at ease.

️ Our Vision

Cookie’s Dog Haus will be Koh Chang‘s first premium dog retreat — a safe, joyful, and community-driven paradise where dogs thrive, and their humans can explore the island worry-free.

With your support, we’ll build:

• Overnight boarding suites for dogs with A/C & private outdoor spaces

• Professional grooming spa services

• Supervised daycare & play groups

• A dog-friendly café for hounds & their humans

• A safe dog park or oasis for traveling dogs across Southeast Asia

️ Our Mission

Cookie’s Dog Haus will be more than a business—it’s a community project for dogs, their human, and the island itself.

With your help, we will:

• Create safe, joyful stays and playground for all pet dogs and peace of mind for their families

• Create local jobs and skills training, especially for women

• Provide free community workshops on dog health & training

• Build a positive model for responsible, pet-friendly tourism in Thailand
