Passsionate dog momma! <3

Pet care experience

(My former name was Alexandria/Lexie.) I do not accept bookings without a meet and greet, or with others home during the stay for safety reasons. Housesitting starts between 6-7pm and ends between 6-7am. (Staying full time may require an additional fee.) Dog Boarding begins at 8am and ends at 5pm. I am a dog mom to two sweet pups named Lilo and Stitch. (Lilo loves to come on walks with me and stay with me on bookings if allowed. She has a kennel I bring that she sleeps in. Stitch stays home with my family.) My friends like to call me the animal whisperer because every animal gravitates towards me and is friendly, even when they normally aren't! I have owned dogs all of my life, of all sizes, ages, and illnesses. I am experienced in taking care of dogs that need special care; for example asthma, pregnant, elderly, sick, cancer. I mainly have experience with rescue or shelter dogs. One of my pups when I lived at home had three litters of puppies (three, one, four) that I took care of before finding them loving homes (some of which I still occasionally dog-sit for!) I would love to become your pups secondary best friend (right after you.) ☺️

Anika was a perfect fit for us and our 11 year old dog who is very timid. We hired her to take care of him for four days while we were out of town. She was reliable, communicative and conscientious. We will definitely invite her to care for him again.

Anika was great! Very responsive and sent plenty of pictures! My Arya is a little skiddish sometimes and she quickly loved Anika. They were happy pups!

Anika was very reliable and the dogs loved her. She took very good care of them, including a senior dog that is on multiple meds. We will definitely rebook Anika when we need another sitter!

It’s clear that Anika has a real passion for animals and our two dogs, Malcolm and Oso, were immediately drawn to her. She did a great job of checking in with us during her stay at our home and we appreciated that everything was left in its place. We will definitely use Anika again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter.
