Availability

I am currently home for the summer, which means my availability is very flexible and I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. Once summer ends, I will be continuing my pilot training and taking online courses through Lewis University. Even then, my schedule will remain flexible, allowing me to continue providing reliable and attentive care for your pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and one dog of my own, Phoebe, who is incredibly friendly and loves being around other dogs. She can play all day long and does a great job helping other dogs feel comfortable in a new environment! If your pet will be staying in my home, I would be more than happy to arrange a meet and greet beforehand so they can get to know Phoebe and make sure everyone is a good fit. Your pet's safety and well being are always my top priorities, and I will follow any routines or instructions you provide to help them feel right at home!

Information Anelle D. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know about their normal routine, feeding schedule, any food allergies or dietary restrictions, medications they take (including when and how they should be given), and any behaviors or triggers I should be aware of. I haven't personally cared for a dog with special needs yet, but I'm more than willing to learn. If your dog does have special needs, I'd appreciate clear instructions so I can provide the best care possible and make sure they feel safe!

A typical day

I love spending time outside with dogs and keeping them happy and active! If you'd like me to take your pup on walks, I'd be more than happy to. I just ask that you let me know ahead of time if they're good with other dogs or if there are any triggers or behaviors I should be aware of so I can make sure that we have a safe walk!

Pet care experience

I've been caring for animals for over 12 years, starting with my own dog, Lola. Since both of my parents worked, I was often responsible for feeding her, taking her on walks, playing with her, and making sure she was well cared for. That experience taught me responsibility from a young age and helped me develop a genuine love for animals. Since then, I've cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors, including dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away.

Highly recommend booking Anelle - she is so sweet and will love your dogs like her own! If my dogs could talk, they would ask for her to return!

Anelle was extremely accommodating and easy to work with when it came to boarding our greyhound. He is an elderly dog and made sure he got his meds and was cautious with him due to his arthritic hips. Her communication was so helpful! We would absolutely use her services again because we can tell he was really taken care of. It’s always hard leaving your fur baby with someone else and expect the same amount of love, but with her, we got it! So grateful for her! Would 10/10 recommend!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Anelle took wonderful care of our dog Maggie, and kept us updated with great communication throughout her stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Maggie was in such good hands. We would absolutely love to have Anelle watch Maggie again in the future. Highly recommended!
