Akanksha is amazing. She was patient with my pup who is wary of new people. She was understanding, accommodating and kind. Sent lots of updates with photos. THANK YOU!!

We left our two dogs with Akanksha for the day. Though they are not used to being without us when we picked them up they were happy and relaxed. We were grateful to receive a few photos and videos throughout the day. Thank you!

I was very nervous about leaving my dog as I haven’t left him with a new sitter in over a year and half. Akanksha had a very calming presence and didn’t rush the drop off. She seemed very sincere and sweet. Toby seemed to enjoy his time. Whenever I asked for a picture or video she provided it. Overall a good experience.

Information Akanksha S. would like to know about your pet

Here are a few important things to know about pets ahead of time to ensure they receive the best care: 1. **Health and Medical Information**: Any existing medical conditions, allergies, medications, or special dietary needs. 2. **Behavioral Traits**: Are they shy, anxious, energetic, or aggressive around strangers or other animals? 3. **Favorite Activities**: What are their favorite toys, games, or types of exercise? This helps keep them engaged and happy. 4. **Daily Routine**: Feeding times, bathroom schedules, and sleeping habits—keeping their routine as consistent as possible is essential. 5. **Training and Commands**: Are they trained to respond to specific commands or signals? This helps with communication and safety. 6. **Interaction with Other Pets**: How do they get along with other pets? Knowing this is important if there’s a chance of encountering other animals during walks or playtime. 7. **Fears or Triggers**: Any specific things that make them anxious or scared, like loud noises, thunderstorms, or separation anxiety. 8. **Emergency Contacts**: Your vet’s information and any backup contact, just in case. Having these details ensures that the pets feel comfortable and secure in my care.

A typical day

When watching pets, I make sure they have a fun and engaging time. Here are some of the activities I’ll do with them: 1. **Playtime and Fetch**: Whether it's chasing a ball or playing tug-of-war, I'll ensure they stay active and entertained. 2. **Nature Walks**: For dogs, we'll explore local parks and trails, giving them plenty of exercise and new smells to discover. 3. **Interactive Toys and Puzzles**: I’ll use toys that challenge their minds and keep them mentally stimulated. 4. **Cuddle and Relaxation Time**: For the pets that love snuggling, there will be plenty of cozy moments. 5. **Personalized Play for Cats**: Feather toys, laser pointers, and plenty of climbing opportunities for active cats. 6. **Photo Updates**: I’ll capture fun moments and send photo updates so you can see the adventures your pet is having! I focus on keeping them happy, healthy, and comfortable while you're away.
