About: I’m an active person that knows how to take care of animals. I have an Belgian Malinois that is super active and know how to interact with high maintenance dogs. I work from home 4 out of 5 days. Have plenty of free time to do drop ins or animal sit for the day or night. Currently I don’t have animals stay at my house but willing to go to your house for drop ins or pet sitting for any day of the week.


“Anna is wonderful. Reliable, proactive and great communicator. Such a relief to know my cats are well looked after when I am out of town. Thanks Anna!”


About: I have had animals in my house for basically my entire life. I have owned dogs as big as hounds down to kittens. I have helped potty train dogs and cats alike. I have also taken care of cats with special needs such as urinary issues and partial blindness. I have some professional experience with pet sitting as well. I am currently working as an assistant at a veterinary clinic, and have over a year of experience with animals in a clinical setting. I am a student, and I work part-time. I am off of school for the summer so unless I am at my part-time job I am available. I will make your pet my priority! I have experience crating animals, walking animals, and cleaning up indoor messes. I will take dogs on long walks and make sure they are well hydrated and cool. I have experience taking care of french bulldogs, so I know how important hydration is to the well being of a dog on a hot walk. I am also experienced in deep cleaning cat litter boxes and cleaning up accidents indoors.

Broad Rock pet parents share their Rover experiences
Tyler was fantastic! I felt very comfortable leaving my little baby in her hands. I will definitely book again!

Cat has been an absolute pleasure to work with! I scheduled her last minute for daily drop-in services with my dog, Koko. Even though it was a short turnaround time (I made the request Saturday morning for services starting on Monday), Cat came to our house that same day to meet Koko and discuss what I was looking for in drop-in services. Over the past week, Cat has been an excellent communicator, has consistently arrived on time, and has really catered her care to Koko's preferences (e.g., playing ball with her in our yard, convincing her to eat something at lunchtime even though she's picky). I have already booked another drop-in session with Cat for next week and will certainly continue to work with her in the future! I highly recommend working with Cat!

Kelly is the absolute best! She understands my cats and treats them like her own. I always feel so much better leaving town when I have her to watch my babies :)

Abby did an incredible job with our two kitties! They can be a bit anxious but Abby made sure to spend ample time with them to make them feel comfortable while we were away. She was also able to give them daily medications without issue! Would highly recommend Abby and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!

Nicole was able to help me pretty last minute with checking on my pup, super communicative and was super great with Elvis. Thank you so much !

Emily was amazing! She was very communicative and FaceTimed with us before we left to make us comfortable. She sent us great pictures and was able to get our very shy cat to love her. Highly recommend if you want someone to care about your cats like they are their own!

Haley is a gem of a pet sitter!! She dropped by every day for a week to feed and play with my kitty while I was out of state. I loved the detailed summaries she sent each day after the visit. Highly recommend her to anyone :)

Brenna did an amazing job of checking in on my cat T. Rex while I was out of town! She was a great communicator and super flexible with my traveling times. I would 100% recommend her to other pet owners and am sure I will reach back out next time I need a drop-in again!!

Erica was great to work with and our pups really seemed to enjoy their time with her. She was attentive to their needs and gave everyone lots of snuggles while we were gone.

Erin was great with our dogs and very attentive to their needs. We have 2 dogs, 1 old and the other is crazy, she handled both with ease. We’d request her again and recommend her services!

Lindsey came through with a last minute request and she always takes care my little ones! She makes my life and job so much easier when I have last minute trips!
AJ did a great job caring for our older resident dog and our 3 month old foster puppy. AJ covered feeding both dogs, lots of visits and play-time inside and outside in the yard for the puppy, regular walks for our Janie, and lots of extra care and affection!

My cat is so comfortable around Ana and does such a good job of updating me. I would definitely recommend her to watch your pets!

Joy is such a wonderful pet sitter! I was so relieved when joy accepted to pet drop in on my hound and cats. Very attentive and responsive. Loves spending time with animals and is a comfort to have looking after your pets! Perfectly on time and doesn't over stay. I trust her 100% with my fur babies. Absolutely will be booking again!

Kaleb saved the day by sitting our kitty pretty last-minute! He was really communicative and put our minds (and hers) at ease even though she was a bit anxious and in a new home. We definitely appreciated the time and care he took with her along with all the photos and updates.

Ashley was amazing!! She sent lots of cute pics of the kitties and sent a nice note of everything she did while she was there!! Will definitely book with her next time!

So helpful with my baby kitties. I love that she takes lots of pictures. It shows me what a good job she’s doing. Went above and beyond to help me secure my place while I’m out of town. So grateful!

Nijah was wonderful and incredibly helpful! Wiling and able to watch our dogs in a pinch, she was very communicative and kind. Definitely a life saver, would recommend!

Julia was wonderful! She always takes the best photos and leaves thorough visit summaries. Highly recommend her!

Alexis has been taking care of our dogs for some time now. Every time we are back from a trip our dogs look happy and well cared for. She always gives us an update and makes sure our pups needs are taken care of. Thanks Alexis for taking care of our pups, we appreciate you!
