With me, your pet will be carefree
Pet care experience
I've taken care of animals all my life. I don't remember a time where I haven't been responsible for at least one animal. Growing up, my family was a family of animal lovers. We were always taking in strays and finding them new loving homes, if we had too many at the time. Most of my experience revolves around taking care of puppies, dogs, kittens, and cats. Though I've also cared for rabbits, ferrets, snakes, and even ducks. After moving to DC in 2015, I became a pet care giver professionally for 2 years before moving away. I worked with Happy tails before the business closed and through here. I walked and sat for many different types of dogs and cats. I even have experience with dogs with disabilities and picky temperaments and cats who need daily medication for their survival. Now I'm back in DC focusing on my artistry but need money in order to continue. I have no other obligations in life and so I feel my desire to be with multiple animals again and my need for a little extra cash would make me a good choice. I am great with directions and hate being late so I normally show up about ten minutes earlier to a date just to ensure promptness.
Reviews
Did a great job walking our pooch. Was easy to contact and discuss details. Much appreciated!
Ahanu was sincere and professional. My wife and I instantly trusted them with our excessively affectionate, energetic Aussie/Pit, Brigid. We appreciated their patience and diligence on walks and felt that they were exceptionally thorough, timely, communicative, and reliable. It is apparent to us that Ahanu is incredibly caring and strives for excellence. Outstanding service!
Ahanu cared for my dog, Gunner, while we lived in D.C., and was incredibly loving and reliable. They truly have a gift with animals. Gunner has separation anxiety, some aggression/resource guarding issues, and went blind during the year that Ahanu cared for him. Ahanu handled all of this with the utmost love and care. Gunner can be a difficult client, but loved and trusted Ahanu from the very start, as did I. They also had a lot of fun together! I can't recommend them enough.
Again is such a great person, so careful and caring and really takes the time to provide the best care. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great caretaker for your furry friend.

Information Ahanu O. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences. I like to know if there are any behavior quirks such as does the dog not like other dogs, is there a spot in the house that I shouldn't attempt to move them from or they'll get mad. Things of that nature. Also is there a feeding schedule, certain things I should or shouldn't allow. This is along with many of the other questions I'll ask before being left with the animal alone.
A typical day
I always like to make sure a little play time is thrown in if the owner is ok with it. If there are trails near by, those are my favorite to walk through to give the pet a clean surrounding and fresh new scents. I like to do any activities that the pet loves. For instance, if a pup loves fetch, then so do I.
