About me
My name is Janina, I'm 40 years old and come from Norderstedt. Before founding Pellina, I had many jobs. In administration, scheduling, and also in quality management at various companies. However, they were always just jobs, and they didn't make me happy. In 2014, I founded a dog daycare center in Norderstedt for small dogs. The system worked like a regular daycare center, only with dogs. It was a great job, but also a tough one. Working hours from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., whatever the weather, really demanded everything from me during the cold season. The years passed, dogs came and went, and I realized that it wasn't fulfilling. I've always been very creative; I've restored furniture, painted pictures, crafted, and always sewed. Now it seemed natural to venture into the world of dogs and let my creativity run wild. What can I say, I loved it...
Design ideas just flowed and I pursued my passion in my free time. At some point I thought, why not sell them online and hey presto, things slowly took off. I ran the dog daycare during the day and made custom dog collars at night. It got more and more complicated and really pushed me to the absolute limit of my strength. If I hadn't had such strong faith in God back then and known that he was on PELLINA'S side, I would have given up because I simply couldn't do it anymore. At that point I decided to close the dog daycare and concentrate completely on PELLINA. I can tell you, it wasn't always easy. I had a lot of setbacks and not every month went equally well, but I never gave up on dreaming my dream and holding on to my faith. More and more dealers came along and wanted to sell my stuff, and I often felt like I was on cloud nine. But when you decide to start a company, the first few weeks are tough. I wondered if I was doing the right thing and often thought that things wouldn't go any further than this, but I persevered because I had, and still have, a dream. Our company is growing, has solid foundations, and I'm so glad I stuck to my dream, was persistent, and had faith that it would work!
