Pet care experience

Engineer by Day, Pawsitter by Night

Natural born dog whisperer. Wanted a Pit bull ended up with a Chihuahua. I truly believe Cuco, my dog, was my animal soulmate. Although he has since passed, I loved caring for him full time and now hope to have the opportunity to care for your pup part time. I am a patient walker — even if that means infinite stops to sniff stuff. Will always speak to them as I would to a human child. Plus, no human children in household only your pet child. Can help with potty training and social/public anxiety relief. Guaranteed good belly rubs, affection, and fresh bowl of water/food at all times under my care. I’d be thrilled to take very photogenic pictures of them and send them your way along with updates. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any additional questions and/or concerns.

Ana was wonderful and we've already scheduled another date with her. She's very professional, knowledgeable and trustworthy which always makes it easier to leave your fur baby in someone else's care. Ana was in constant contact with us through pictures, videos and texts and our 12 year old GSP Ellie was living her best life! We would highly recommend her to anyone!

Ana and her partner were beyond wonderful! She accepted my last minute Holiday request to watch my dog overnight for the 4th of July. She thoughtfully reached out to confirm I was ok for her to watch another last minute dog that was a regular. The second I met her, I knew my dog would be cared for like her own. She provided me with detailed updates, so many pics which I loved and now I have these wonderful pics of him. He was spoiled and so happy and comfortable there. They took him in a doggie pool, brushed so much hair out of him, played, walked, all the things. She kept me updated which I loved. I will absolutely use her again as I can relax and have no worries knowing he’s in the best care with her and her partner. I can’t thank her enough!

Ana was amazing! She watched our pup when we came in out of town for a wedding. He was such a happy little guy & so cozy with her when we came to pick him up. She was very sweet and even worked with our schedule around the wedding to make things work last minute. Thank you so much, Ana! We appreciate you & Junior misses you!

Safety, trust & environment

Sliding door for them to look outside while inside. Indoor cameras to keep an eye on pup if up to trouble from my office. Designated space in the living room, kitchen, office, and loft for them. This is our home, and we hope to make your pup feel right at home too—pups are allowed on all furniture (couches, human beds). My partner Martin also lives here—he’s a very loving caretaker of dogs and often helps keep them busy on weekends or when he’s not at work.

A typical day

Lots of toys for play time and walks around the neighborhood . It is a small-cozy-peaceful suburban subdivision that is extremely pet friendly. Lots of exploring for them to do.
