Pet care experience
I am a huge pet lover and in the search for my own dog right now. I have two adorable cats at home (can be separated from doggies) and a husband and roommate that love pets as well. I am attentive and affectionate, and very in-tune with needs, anxiety, and basic commands. I mostly have experience with small and medium dogs, but have the capacity at my home and yard for larger dogs. An enclosed dog park at Brentwood Park is a walk away from my house. I am active and always happy to go out for walks! I am a student journalist and freelancer, so I mostly work at home unless I am on assignment or at Portland State for classes. So my availability is varied but pretty flexible. I have been a certified nursing assistant for the last 3 years, so I have a lot of clinical experience human-wise, but generally my work has meant that I am a caring, attentive, and empathetic person. Feel free to just reach out and ask any questions. My husband Michael, who is a nursing student, and who grew up with dogs as well, will sometimes work with me with owners' permission. He's very careful about making sure doors are closed and loves to play with pets when they're visiting us. He also sometimes accompanies me on walks, especially when we're walking two or more dogs.
Reviews
Anna did a fantastic job taking care of my two pups and house while I was away! I came home to happy pups and she had taken care of a few things around the house that was far above and beyond what was expected. I will definitely look to book Anna again! Thanks Anna!
Anna gave us a fantastic first experience with Rover! We started out with a meet and greet and she was great with my boys right off the bat. One of my dogs was a bit shy on their first day of sitting but warmed up quickly after some ball and a walk. Anna sent plenty of pics and updates while we were away and the boys looked happy and tired. I will definitely reach back out to Anna the next time we need a sitter!
Very thorough care and consideration for our animal and home. Would like to use services again.
Anna was wonderful with my boy puppy Paris. She was very attentive and skilled with handling him, grabbed plenty of amazing pictures, and even found a couple trails in the nearby neighborhoods for us to walk. Cannot go wrong with this dog sitter!
About Anna W.
Communication
Skills
Information Anna W. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know activity needs, a dog well as any behavioral issues or anxieties. Open communication is really important to me, so if your dog has a behavioral or health issue (or just a quirk!) I would like to know how you deal with it so I can best support your pup. I have two young cats who do great with dogs, but they can easily be separated if that makes pup anxious.
A typical day
Walks around the neighborhood, access to a dog park in walking distance from my house, playing in the backyard or fenced front yard, happy to take doggie on adventures.
