Pet care experience

I love ALL fur friends.

My first love was a German Shepherd at age 3, a gift from my grandfather. Since then I have taken care of many dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and other small fur friends all my life. I am a Forever Foster Mom for small dogs above age 8 for Old Dog Haven and right now take care of one small 15 year old fur friend named Tinker. I also have a 9 year old rescue Golden-doodle named Ava. I love taking care of small Dogs and Kitties (in your own home) so much I do not consider it work! I love taking care of your fur friend while you are at work or enjoy a vacation. I prefer small sized dogs up o 26 lbs. who get along with kitties and are non-aggressive. Oh, and we have a rescue Love Bird named Puffy who absolutely loves talking to visitors from his own "house" smile.. I enjoy meeting you and your furry family member and will take care of them excellently for you. Thank you for choosing our family!

Anita is super sweet. She has cared for my little guy and always make sure he is safe, she updates me constantly with photos and text how is he doing during his stay with her. I feel he is in safe hands while am away!!!

Anita was so sweet to send messages and pictures of my dog while I was away traveling. She is really a dog lover! I also appreciated that she was very easy to communicate with. Very thankful to find such a great person to pet sit. Thank you!

Brillo enjoys going to see Anita. He is very much loved and taken care of and I don't have to worry about him when I am gone.

A typical day

We live in Gig Harbor right before the Narrows Bridge. (very convenient for travelers). If you live across the Narrows Bridge expect to pay a toll fee. We have very large grassy areas surrounded by nature and lots of trees, we play ball there and walk to our hearts contend. Our balcony door is open and all can lay out in the sun and look at neighborhood fur friends walk by. Thank you for choosing our family to take care of your loved furry family member.

No breed preferences as long as your family member is small., gets along with kitties and is not aggressive. Does your fur friend have health issues? What medicines are to be administered? Are there special food requirements? Do you want to bring their own bed? None aggressive fur friends only! Gets along with cats. **If you know your travel and scheduling dates in advance I would love for you to book your fur friend's stay even if it is way ahead, avoiding last minute panic scheduling. I'll be happy to hold on to the dates of your fur friend's stay until you are ready.... Anything else you would like for me to know? Thank you so much!
