Pet care experience
“Happiness is fur and four legs”
It really does take a village to care for a pup—and I’m so happy to be part of yours! Hey there! There’s something truly special about the bond we share with our pets. I absolutely love meeting new pups and spending time with furry friends of all ages—whether we’re playing, cuddling, or just relaxing at home. For the past four years, I’ve had the joy of caring for friends’ pups, along with my own sweet chocolate labradoodle, who I’ve raised since he was just a fluffy little guy. From energetic playtime to cozy snuggles, I’m all about making sure every dog in my care feels happy, safe, and deeply loved. Bonus: My kids play music at home, so your pup will be surrounded by live tunes and become the cutest little audience. Who knows—they might come home humming a tune or howling in harmony! 🎶🐾 When you leave your pup with me, you can rest easy knowing they’ll be treated like part of the family. We’ll shower them with love, attention, and plenty of fun adventures!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ann was great! She is very professional and welcomed us and our dogs into her home and fenced backyard. The girls seemed to have a great time and it was so cute when we picked them up because they wanted to show us where they played in the backyard. Ann has two daughters one of which we met and she seemed to like to play with our girls as well. I would choose Ann again in a heartbeat!
Ann was so great with my dog, Beau! He can be very timid and shy with new people and she was so patient and kind with him. We had regular communication and pictures throughout his stay. I would absolutely use her again!
Ann was absolutely wonderful with my 2 dogs! I knew they were safe with her and her family and I would use her again in the future. Highly recommended!
Ann watched Missy and Max over the weekend. She has watched them before. When they saw her, their little tales moved back and forth quickly. They never looked back at me and happily went with Ann. I never worried about them because I knew they were an excellent hands. She administered medicine to Missy and Max.. They were fine. She’s a wonderful sitter.. She’s very conscientious caring for your Pat.
Ann always cares for our dog and he comes back happy and loved
Ann is amazing and Cali loves it there! She loves playing with their dog pepito and is always so happy in the pictures!

Schedule
As a full-time homemaker and homeschooling mom, I have the flexibility to care for pets in need of a loving home during weekdays and some weekends. I will provide daily exercise in my backyard playing fetching, and other games with my kids and Pepito.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My non-smoking home is pet-friendly to make sure our furry friends are safe and comfortable. I have a fenced backyard with plenty space where they can run and play freely. I will send you updates along with pictures. My children are old enough to help me provide care, supervision and abundant play time, my own pup is friendly, he gets along well with other well behaved dogs.

A typical day
We enjoy engaging with our furry friends all day long, both inside in our home and outside in the backyard. I like to keep them active, entertained and mentally stimulated by playing games like tug of war, fetch, hide and seek, but also providing space to rest when they need it. Additionally, I find it rewarding to reinforce basic manners and tricks such as sit, wait, come, and with your approval, I could also teach them fun ones they might not know, such as roll over, hi5, shake, as long as your dog seems to enjoy it. Your pet will have the company of my own kids, including my playful chocolate labradoodle. They sure will have lots of fun playing together.

- A Few Things to Know Before Booking To give your pup the best possible care, I kindly ask that you share as much as you can about their personality, behaviors, sensitivities, habits, and health. Knowing these details ahead of time helps me avoid surprises and provide the best care possible. Examples: -How they behave around food, toys, other animals, and other people. -Any signs of separation anxiety or stress when left alone -Any medical conditions or special needs -Vaccination history or relevant vet info -Their responsiveness and comfort level with people and new environments Since I have 2 children (11 and a 13 years old) at home and a pup of my own, it’s especially important that your dog feels comfortable around both kids and other pets. For Boarding & Doggie Daycare: I offer lots of outdoor playtime in our spacious backyard. Depending on your pup’s needs, weather conditions, and leash manners, I’m also happy to include walks. Please let me know what works best for your dog during the booking process so I can tailor their care accordingly. I do sometimes host multiple dogs at once, but I always ensure the group is well-matched and that everyone gets along. Pepito plays an important role here—he’ll help me decide after our meet-and-greet if your pup is a good fit for our home. If you’d prefer your dog to be the only guest during their stay, you need to let me know before booking—I’ll do my best to accommodate, as long as there are no other bookings at the time of your request. In some cases, depending on your pup’s needs and the level of care required, there may be an additional fee. If so, we’ll discuss everything ahead of time before the stay. For young pups, I recommend bringing their own crate or playpen to give them a familiar, safe, cozy spot where they can have a break, rest, and feel secure during their stay. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend!
