Availability
I'm a self-employed entrepreneur. I teach some yoga therapy clients, and have art healing sessions at different times throughout the week. These are short sessions, so I would only be away from the pet-sit house for a few hours, and planned ahead of time, but also able to be flexible as needed. I'm able to accommodate morning, midday, or evening times for all care needs. Occasionally I'm able to take a pet-sit dog on a walk with a walk client if everyone gets along, which I'm pretty good at facilitating actually, but I always ask first, and never push for it.

Safety, trust & environment
I like to really check in with each animal and give them plenty of specialized attention. Especially at first, it takes a little time for them to build trust with a new person! I also like to keep to the routines that they expect. My cat gets treats upon waking, and before we go to bed, she likes the consistency. She likes variation in play-time and exploration, and I aim to help her build confidence in approaching new situations, she has been an amazing adventure cat and companion! I learn each pets favorite spot to chill, and when they do and don't want attention. I listen for, and learn their cues, and communication.
Information Anastasia H. would like to know about your pet
I need to know about how your animals respond/interact when meeting new people, or animals. And what they love and gravitate towards, that helps them feel safe, interested, and fulfilled.
A typical day
I naturally encourage pack bonding among animals, and create a feeling of safety, through positive boundaries as well. Any and all fun games and enrichment are key to making it a positive experience! We keep to their regular walks/routines unless pet parents denote some flexibility. I often start with somewhat shorter walks during a first sit, and don't usually go to any new places. Then we gradually increase after the first couple days or into going to new places on a second stay, if the parents and pets are open to or interested in that. Others we just stay in comfortable routines.

Intuitive and Gentle Care
Pet care experience
I have experience caring for all kinds of small and big animals, including pets, farm animals, and even wild animals with conservation organizations. I love learning all the details of what constitutes the best care for each animal! I'm pretty good at basic training with dogs and puppies, and even kitties!! I give kitty and doggy massage and (reiki) energy, animals can feel our energy for sure! Sometimes I can intuitively pick up on little changes that could really help them.
Cat care experience
Anastasia also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Treated my pup like her own and wonderful communication.
We had an amazing experience with Anastasia. They took incredible care of our dogs, kept us updated with regular photos, and followed all care instructions perfectly. Our pups seemed happy, and well-loved the entire time. We highly recommend Anastasia and will absolutely book them again
Very thoughtful and communicative. Happy dog after a week!
Anastasia took great care of our 12 year old lab. She communicated clearly and promptly and left the house in good order. Thank you!
