Safety, trust & environment

I live with my partner and our two cats. Unfortunately, since it’s a rental, we cannot bring other animals in. At your house, though, I will follow all house rules and provide the best care possible to your beloved pet.

Information Anika R. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know size, age, temperament, and any medical conditions. If I’m doing feeding, what are your portions and routines? Does your pet get treats? Otherwise, where do we keep the toys?!

A typical day

Every activity your pet and I do will absolutely depend on what they like! If they like big adventure walks, we’ll do that! If they want to wander slowly around the block, we can do that! What are your pup or cat’s favorite toys? Let’s play!

Trusted and loving sitter

Pet care experience

I’ve lived my entire life with dogs of all sizes, cats, hamsters, and even a ferret, so I have lots of experience with daily care. I also have some experience caring for horses, bearded dragons, pythons, and—if I reach far enough back into the depths of my childhood—I remember a hermit crab. One of my proudest accomplishments is rescuing my kitty, Ada, from a neglectful home and nursing her through malnutrition, worms, and flea dermatitis back to health. I love my fur children, and I’ll love yours like my own.

Anika is an amazing dog walker! Storm can be territorial and temperamental when meeting new people. Anika was patient and kind with Storm, they ended up bonding quite well! Anika has great personality is awesome with communication and punctual. Can't praise her enough 🎉

Anika did a great job with Milo during the drop in today. She made efforts to follow instructions to make Milo comfortable 🐶
