Aniko can care for
Availability
Though my brother was the official “dog person” in the family (he worked at a dog school), I’ve developed a deep love and confidence with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm comfortable administering medications, playing, and walking, especially in the early mornings, which I genuinely enjoy.

Whether it’s a sassy cat or an energetic pup, your pet will be treated like family in my care.
Information Aniko K. would like to know about your pet
It’s always helpful to know your pet’s routine, energy level, and any quirks they may have—what makes them happy, what stresses them out, and how they communicate. I’d also love to know if they have any medical needs, allergies, leash reactivity, or special instructions for feeding, walks, or play. If they’re anxious, shy, or selective with people or other animals, that’s completely okay—I just want to be prepared so I can give them the best possible care, tailored to their personality.
A typical day
I love starting the day with a long, energizing walk—usually 60 to 90 minutes—perfect for dogs who enjoy stretching their legs and getting some early morning excitement. Around noon, especially in hot weather, I prefer a shorter, more relaxed walk to keep things safe and comfortable. In the cooler evenings, we head out again for a longer walk with some playtime—especially if there’s a dog park nearby! If the pup needs extra potty breaks throughout the day, I’m happy to include those as well. I usually wind down around 10 p.m. and love waking up early, so your pet’s routine will be in caring, consistent hands.

Pets Are Family – I Treat Them Like
Pet care experience
My journey with dogs began unexpectedly after a surgery, I was told walking was the only allowed exercise, so I started helping neighbors with their pups. What began as recovery turned into connection: some of those dogs truly became family to me.

Reviews
Aniko is such a blessing! She took such great care of our diabetic cat and was so attentive and loving with him. She was very reliable and on time. She is a great person who truly cares about animals and I would highly recommend her. Thank you Aniko!
Aniko is a gem as always!
Truly a 5 star sitter!! I've used Aniko before and just like always she's super attentive and is so great about following my cats schedule. They are a bit older and prickly but she totally adapted. Beyond that she took care of my place, my plants and apartment were also in amazing shape when I got back which was such a pleasure. Will definitely keep booking with her!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Aniko was fantastic and I’d absolutely book with her again! She stepped in short notice over a weekend, organised a meet and greet straight away, and made me feel completely at ease from the outset. It’s obvious she genuinely loves cats, and my two warmed to her really quickly too. One of my cats is diabetic and needs insulin twice a day, and I had no concerns at all about leaving him in her care. She handled his injections without any issues and kept me updated with lots of photos and messages throughout, which made being away from them so much easier. She even left a lovely note for me when I got home, which was such a thoughtful touch. Friendly, reliable and clearly someone who really cares about the animals she looks after. I’d happily trust her with my two again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
