IN YOUR HOME DOG SITTING
Pet care experience
I am fully bonded and insured. I am a full-time dog sitter and have been watching dogs for 20 years. Whether you are traveling for business or vacation, your four- legged family members have less stress when they are able to stay at home in their familiar environment. I have experiencing with watching dogs ranging in age from puppies to seniors including those with separation anxiety, mobility issues and are blind or deaf. I am able to administer medication including insulin shots. I follow your exact dogs schedule including feeding times, treats and wake up/bed time.
Reviews
Ann was absolutely amazing! I was a little worried because I have 2 Bully breeds, an APBT and an American Bully. As most know APBT are VERY active dogs with a LOT of energy. Blu has been professional trained but loses all training when meeting someone new. Nala “Bear” has not been professionally trained and is a pup at only 2 years old. Ann provided constant updates and really made it a point to get to know them. I choose Ann because of her reviews so I want to pay it forward and post my own to help someone else choose Ann! Thank you so much for taking care of my babies and my home while I was away.
I can not say enough about Ann! She went above and beyond taking care of all our family dogs so we could enjoy a Christmas get away all together. I feel so blessed to have found her and my fur babies couldn’t have been happier!!! I think they are already missing her. Ann is an amazing person and I see why she has all 5 stars. ❤️
Ann is so good with my girls and love the updates with pics!
Another amazing week of Ann taking care of our all our fur babies! Excellent communication, daily updates and photos! Our home is in excellent condition and our pets were all loved while we were gone! Thank you Ann for loving our babies!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I take safety very seriously. I keep all food items off of tables and counters to prevent any "counter surfing". I make sure your pups do not have access to your garbage can. I am always outside with your pups and make sure all fence gates are closed before we go outside. I prefer to go in and out of your house through the garage to prevent your pups from escaping.
Information Ann S. would like to know about your pet
If your dog goes on walks, there are a few things I would need to know ahead of time. One important piece of information that I have found to be key is how your dog is around other dogs during their walk and whether he/she is on a harness or some type of collar.
A typical day
I do require a meet and greet for new clients. I also need to know if your furry family member has any allergies, separation anxiety, is food or toy aggressive and is blind or deaf.

Availability
As we are heading into the summer months, your pups and I will spend lots of time outdoors (weather permitting). I really enjoy playing games with dogs such as fetch and tug-o-war. If it is to hot to play outside, we will enjoy lounging in the shade enjoying the breeze. When we are inside, your pups will get all the belly rubs and pets they desire! If allowed, I love snuggling with dogs on the couch and having them sleep with me in bed.
