I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and plenty of other furry, feathered, and even scaly friends, for over 25 years, including my own pets as well as those of friends and family. I understand that every pet has a different personality. I believe every pet deserves to be met where they are, and I take the time to earn their trust.

“I’ve booked Anisha couple times, and every experience has been great. She’s very flexible and understanding whenever something unexpected comes up, which makes things so much easier. Always a great help and someone I can count on! Thanks Anisha!”

About: I’ve been around by animals my whole life, so this is just a realm I tend to be comfortable with and thrive in. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and even small pets like guinea pigs. I also gained hands-on experience working at a doggy daycare, where I learned how to manage multiple dogs at once, ensure safe play, and provide personalized attention. I remember the first job I ever wanted was to be a veterinarian, so the love of animals I have is longstanding. I appreciate animals of all kinds and pride myself on being reliable, gentle, and attentive. Whether it’s walking with them, playing with them, feeding them, or anything else, I’ll make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m a student, and I’m looking to do this on the side of that, so I definitely have plenty of time and attention to be able to give to your animals! I’m pretty flexible, so I like to try to work things out always! Like I’ve said, I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and also have experience working at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable around animals with all kinds of personalities. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for, whether that means following their feeding schedule, giving them playtime, or just keeping them company. Additionally, I’m comfortable following any special instructions you provide and can crate your dog if needed. I treat every animal like they’re my own and make sure their needs and routines are respected, and their needs, comfort, and safety will always be a top priority.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’ve raised puppies—like my sweet girl River, who I had from 8 weeks old to 3 years—I’ve grown to love the rhythm and bond that comes with dogs at every stage of life. What sets me apart is a deep sense of patience, attentiveness, and love that comes from years of hands-on experience. I’m especially comfortable with routines, emotional needs, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, mellow, senior, or somewhere in between, I show up with calm energy, genuine care, and a heart full of love for every pup I meet. I currently work remote so I have the flexibility to go on walks during the afternoon, evening, early morning or whenever they need to go out! I’m currently in an house with no other pets. I have plenty of room for them to hangout and feel safe. I’ll make sure they get lots of cuddles and walks.
About: I’m back on Rover by popular demand! I took a break because I was lucky enough to have consistent clients and repeat pups who trusted me with their care since 2022. Over the years, I built amazing relationships with families and their dogs, but some of my furry friends have moved away with their humans, so I’m excited to open my schedule again and meet new pups! I’ve been called a “dog nanny” because I go beyond just walks and feedings. I truly care about making every dog feel safe, loved, and understood. I treat every pup like they’re my own and take the time to learn their personality, routines, and needs. I have experience with training, reinforcing commands, and helping dogs build confidence through patience and positive attention. I have a special place in my heart for rescue and shelter dogs, especially those who may have had difficult past experiences and need extra time, compassion, and understanding to feel comfortable. Having cared for family dogs through all stages of life, including their senior years, I’m comfortable providing medication support, extra patience, and attentive care for older dogs. I also love keeping up with high-energy pups who need playtime, exercise, enrichment, and lots of engagement. Whether your dog is a playful puppy learning new commands, an energetic adventure buddy, a shy rescue learning to trust, or a sweet senior needing extra care, my goal is to provide the same love, patience, and attention I would want for my own pets. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends and am open to last-minute requests when my schedule allows. As a dog owner, especially of larger breeds, I understand that life can be unpredictable and that sometimes you need someone reliable who can step in and make things easier. I value clear communication and transparency, so I’ll always be upfront about my availability and your pet’s care. I provide a calm, comfortable, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel safe and at home. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I take time to learn their routines, personalities, and comfort levels. My home is a quiet space where pets can relax, receive plenty of attention, and maintain a sense of normalcy while their owners are away. I provide regular potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of affection while also respecting when a dog needs quiet time to rest. As a dog owner, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I prioritize safety, communication, and making sure each dog feels comfortable in my care.

I treat every dog like my own and make sure they’re safe, exercised, and genuinely enjoying their time. My schedule is flexible, so I can give pets consistent attention throughout the day.

About: I believe great pet care is about more than just taking a dog for a walk- it's about making them feel safe and loved while their person is away. I'm dependable, attentive, caring, and patient. I'm comfortable around dogs with different personalities and energy levels. I pay close attention to each pet's routine, behavior, and individual needs, and I'm big on communication so you will always know how your pup is doing. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a little extra patience, or companionship, I'll treat them like they're my own. I adopted my previous pup at the age of 6 years old and he lived to be 12. He already had a lot of health issues when I got him but loved him through and through until the day he crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. Best decision I made when I adopted him. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs, so pet care is something I look forward to. I work during the day, but I have flexibility in the evenings and on weekends to give your pup the attention and exercise they need. If you live close enough, I can come over during lunch and give your pup a nice walk. I'll be offering dog walking only, with lots of care and attention to your pup. When I arrive, I'll follow your instructions, treat your home with respect, and make sure your dog is safely leashed before we head out. I'll also double check that doors and gates are secure when we return. My goal is to make every walk safe, fun, and stress free for both you and your pup.
“Brittany was amazing and super friendly! She took many photos of our pup on their walk and took very good care of our girl!! She even checked in with me to ensure I had disarmed our security system beforehand when I had forgotten and gave our kitties some pets. Would book again!”

About: Ive always been a lover of animals and my family and I have rescued multiple cats and dogs since I was little. Ive learned how to take care of even pregnant cats. I usually wake up around 8 am to feed my cats and clean their litter boxes at around 10 am. I come back at around 12 pm for a little snack and by 8 pm they have dinner and I clean the litter box for the second time. I keep a clean environment so that my cats are able to roam freely and I dont have to worry about them getting sick. Cats can get bored as well so I play with them and even talk with them.
About: Equal opportunity animal lover since 1992. Life is better with a furry friend around. * Educated in some Veterinary Technician skills such as giving pills and injection medication * Energetic Personality to keep your dog engaged yet calm energy for cats * Able to handle different sized dogs My current schedule is fairly flexible for drop-in services or dog walks. I work part-time as a server and would love to spend the rest of the week with some furry friends. For dog sitting, I will need a week in advance to clear up any schedule conflicts, otherwise I may need to pop in and out throughout the day. When I’m out on dog walks, I really value your dog’s safety. I always carry pepper spray to make sure I can protect your dog if an aggressive dog charges during our walk. I also use body block techniques to keep your dog safe when off-leash dogs are around. I usually steer clear of other dogs on walks unless you specifically let me know that it’s okay for your dog to greet and interact with them. I prefer to be safe rather than risk your furry friend getting hurt. For cats, I’ll make sure they stay indoors unless you have a catio. If I do take cats to a catio, I’ll always supervise and play with them for a bit before leaving them to nap happily.
