Caring, playful and experienced!
Pet care experience
Dear prospective client, I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 30 years. Professionally, I have worked as a walker for Mobile Mutts in Brooklyn, NY; a doggy daycare associate at NYC's Biscuits and Bath, and took care of pugs at a rescue called Pug Nation in Los Angeles, where I currently reside. In my personal life, I've been a devoted parent to 5 kitties and 2 pups. I have experience with kittens as young as 6 weeks old; I've administered diabetes and other medication to cats; I've volunteered at multiple cat and dog rescues, where I was responsible for feeding, cleaning, playing and walking. I am passionate about animals and their well-being, and have been vegan for 17 years. I am an expert snuggler but also cognizant of a pet's boundaries and their special needs.
Reviews
Stacy looked after my two pups Frenchie and Penny. They both need allot of attention and love during the day when im off to work for extended times. They love Stacey as she is able to handle them both!!
Stacy is an incredible pet lover. She treats them with great respect. She used to have dogs and cats as well. They were her best friends. One of them was even present when she was giving birth to her daughter. Stacy is a very responsible person. She will be great to provide the best care as a pet sitter or a dog walker.
I’ve known Anastasia for 15 years. She is one of the kindest, best people with animals. She has spent time and played with my beloved cat Talula and my beautiful Golden Retriever Clara. I would trust all my animals with her. She always puts the animal first and has tons of knowledge on many species, outside of domestic cats and dogs. You should definitely use her for your pets!
Anastasia (Stacy) loves animals. She absolutely adored Dolce, my pup. Stacy gave her good walks and was always sweet to her. I definitely recommend Stacy because she is attentive, trustworthy and she cares.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a spacious and totally private, fenced-in backyard with grass that's a great space for some doggy playing and exercise. I live in a peaceful, safe community that's a dream for dog-walking. If pet-setting at your place, I will greet your pup with joy and love and make sure they feel loved. If crating is necessary, I am happy to do that as well. For kitties, I will play and snuggle and make them feel completely adored and engaged. Litterbox cleaning, medication administering, whatever your pet needs, they will be covered.

Information Anastasia G. would like to know about your pet
I am very sensitive to your pet's needs. I've worked with extra shy cats and dogs, but also ones that really thrive on stimulation. Any helpful information about your fur baby is most welcome. I look forward to working with you!
A typical day
Creative activities for dogs and cats are my specialty. We will start with a walk with a pup that will always take them on a slightly different route than last time, with plenty of satisfying sniffing. Once back home, we will have some treat dispenser fun, perhaps a game of hide and seek, a stairway race (if there are stairs and with your approval, of course!), and classic games like fetch and tug of war. For kitties, we will do some fun tin foil ball chasing and other fun hunts, followed by some brushing and lap time, make a cardboard box, and do a treat puzzle!
