Information Anita S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has special needs or behavioral aspects I should account for before I meet them for the first time.

A typical day

Short walks generally stay nearby and provide ample time to mark their territory. For longer walks, I love to explore natural areas that offer lots of engaging smells and new sights for the pup to investigate. Depending on the dogs' interests and energy level, we may also play games.

Tired Pup, Happy You

Pet care experience

I've been a doggy mom for over 40 years, including large breeds, Terriers, and my last pup was a Skipperke I found in the forest. I've learned much from our furry friends: Most of all, a well-exercised dog is a calmer, more relaxed and dependable dog. Unfortunately, our hectic lives with crazy work schedules, demanding family times, and even illness can cut into the time we'd love to spend outdoors, exercising (with) our fur partners. If life is in the way of doing right by Fido, let me help by providing time for sniffs and tail-wagging strolls. From short (30 mins) walks to 3+ hour nature outings (weather permitting), once per week or more, your pup will love his/her time outside. (leashed only, public dog parks only with social dogs, longer outings include car transport to parks). Drop-in house visits for repeat customers only, where I know the dog and they know me.

She took really good care of my dogs while we were away. She kept us updated often, which gave us a lot of peace of mind, and it was easy to tell she genuinely loves animals. Our girls came back happy and well cared for, and we could tell they were in great hands. We would definitely trust her to watch them again.🩵

Anita was absolutely amazing with our dog while we were away for our honeymoon. She went above and beyond in every way, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. She made sure he was well taken care of daily — taking him on walks, feeding him properly, giving him his vitamins, and even bathing him. What really stood out was her attention to detail and how much she genuinely cared. She noticed our dog had fleas and took the initiative to remove them and address the issue right away, which we really appreciated. On top of that, she shared helpful tips with us to keep him healthy and comfortable moving forward. It’s clear she treats the dogs she cares for like her own. Because of Anita, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our honeymoon without worrying. We came back to a happy, well-cared-for dog, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and truly caring!
