Pet care experience
I've done a lot of house-sitting and looking after pets over the years, including several dogs who needed regular medication, as well as older dogs and cats who required extra special care.

For five and a half months, Anna pet/house sat for us while our family backpacked the Appalachian trail, in 2019. The care and well being of our pets is a major concern when we go on one of these long trips. A lot of prayers were sent out, hoping the right person comes along to care for our three cats, five tortoises and one small tank of miscellaneous critters (snail, frog, betta, pleco). Will the person faithfully keep up with the flea treatments? Will they not mind cleaning up throw up when it occurs? Will they be able to tolerate Ollie's relentless talking in the morning or the trio's late night play sessions up and down the hall? Will they lovingly pet, hold, and play with them or will they just be objects that only get attention when they are fed? All our concerns were laid to rest with the arrival of Anna. She fulfilled all our expectations and more. She even helped solve some of our litter box issues. When occasional house issues popped up, she promptly let us know and took care of them. Turtles were well cared for. She even took the time to soak them throughout the summer heat. Our cats were comfortable from the first time they met her. Anna regularly sent e-mails telling us about their latest antics, along with adorable photographs. We really looked forward to seeing these. Our three boys loved her. Affectionately, we titled her Aunt Anna. When we returned home, we were greeted with very relaxed cats. The house was flea free, clean, and full of happy cats. If we ever leave on another trip there would be no hesitation in asking Anna to sit again. Whoever has Anna house/pet sit for them, will be incredibly lucky to have chosen her.
Anna took great care of my dogs and my house. I came back and everything was in great shape just the way I left it and my dogs seemed well taken care of. I would definitely recommend and use Anna to sit my dogs and house again!
Anna stayed at my house for over two weeks in December 2018/January 2019. While we were away she sent updates and photos of our dog and was quick to respond when we reached out. She took good care of our older dog and was proactive about communicating with the rescue agency that coordinates her medication and vet appointments. We returned to a healthy dog and a clean house and would certainly recommend her to others!
This was our very first time using online pet-sitting services to find a house/pet sitter, and to be honest, I was a little skeptical. We posted only 5 days before we were leaving to go out of town. Anna reached out to us and we had a nice long phone conversation so I could get a better understanding of how this worked and explain a little more about our house and pets. We invited Anna to come a couple days early so we could make sure she felt comfortable with the pets and could ask any questions about the care for them. While we were away, we received daily updates of our fur babies as well as adorable pictures of them. She had to give them medicine and their daily vitamins and was more than capable of doing so. We came back to a house that was spotless and cleaned. She retrieved all of the packages that came while we were away and even was brave enough to take all THREE big dogs on a walk at the same time. Anna really took care of our home as if it was hers and eagerly helped with household chores. She really set the bar high for the next house sitter. We already let her know about a future trip we have planned and would love to have her back in our home if she is available. Thank you Anna for making our travels stress free from worrying about our fur babies! It was so nice to know they were in good hands of a fellow animal lover!

I don't have any pets of my own at this time, so yours will get all of my attention! I'll be taking care of them at your home, where they're comfortable and happy.
A typical day
I'll be happy to take the dog(s) to their favorite dog park, or just a nice long walk around the block. If you have a back yard, we'll play there a few times a day, weather permitting. Afterwards, we'll probably just snuggle on the couch and rest up, to get ready for the next walk!
