Furry Furends animal care!
Pet care experience
I've owned pets all my life and knew that no matter what, I could never live a life where I didn't have one by my side. As I grew older, I realized working with animals is my dream. I currently own 4 fur babies, a dog and 3 cats who I adore. They're my entire life and I imagine everyone feels the same. I work at a cat shelter where I care for each and every one there by cleaning up after them daily, giving them food, water, treats, and a nice warm bed until their special someone adopts them. I've helped watch and care for friends and family pets, and I'm more than happy to care for yours and make a new furend! I'm willing to work with all sorts of animals, big or small, young or old, and I want to make sure they stay happy while your away. They'll never be alone, and you will always know they're in good hands! I will send lots of silly pictures and updates to reassure you while you're away. I'm also willing to give them as much physical activity as they need and give them any sort of medication they need!
Reviews
Anissa is so sweet and thoughtful, and our animals just love her!
Anissa has been so reliable and my pups absolutely love her visits during the day! She is so attentive and always makes sure to contact me if she has any questions or concerns regarding the dogs. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker for their pups!
Anissa is an awesome person. She was so prompt coming over ahead of time to allow me to give caring instructions. She was very prompt with arrival time, caring for my critters and sent lots of pictures. It made me feel very comfortable to leave them with her care. Would definitely recommend!
Anissa was a great sitter for Tucker. She was reliable and stayed in touch. Tucker even trained her on a few things! (:

I'm not able to keep any animals at my place due to limited space, but I will do my best to complete whatever care your fur babies need!
Information Anissa S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if they have any form of aggression towards people or other dogs, if they need any type of medical care or if they have any medical conditions, if they have any quirks or other behavioral things I need to be careful of / watch out for.
A typical day
I would love to help stimulate your furry friend in many ways with puzzles training or just getting the latest's neighborhood pee mail. Whatever your fur baby needs, I'm willing to do. I also want to do my best to make sure your pet stays on his/her routine while you're gone. I love walking around Virginia Tech, and there're so many things to do there! We can walk around the garden, smell the flowers, and watch the koi, or run around the drill field, or making some friends with the ducks at the duck pond. There's a seemingly unlimited number of squirrels to chase, (If your baby is into it, and you're ok with it.) and always the chance of making a new furry friend or meeting a few strangers who will tell them how cute they are (even though you, and them, already knew that)! I'm willing to play, chase, and run with your pet until they're pooped, then relax and cuddle them until they're ready to do it all over again!

Availability
I work part time at a cat shelter in the mornings (Humane Society of Montgomery County), usually from 8-11, so I have lots of time to come check on my a.
