Highlights
Pet care experience
Home Sweet Home Pet Care
I have enjoyed and cared for dogs all my life and spent many years participating in Agility training and trials with my Blue Heeler/GS Pointer. I have raised puppies and tended to them throughout their long lives. I am a sucker for a white-faced senior dog! I met my husband over 30 years ago when he was a veterinarian and I was a veterinary technician. If your pet needs medication I am happy administer it for you.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We had such a great experience with Ann! She took wonderful care of our cats, and it was so reassuring knowing they were in good hands while we were away. We’re so grateful for her care and would happily book her again!
Ann was fantastic. She communicates well and Freja really likes her. Thank you Ann for taking good care of her.
Ms Ann was the best! She really made Turon feel part of the family and it help me find comfort leaving my baby. Not only did Turon get to cuddle, go outside to play, but she also got to lay on the bed and watch movies! I will be trusting Ms Ann with my babies again. Also, Ms Ann was quick to respond, very welcoming, and friendly!
Leroy had a great stay with Anne! She was very communicative with regular updates and my dog came back happy and well cared for. Will book again!
Ann was so kind and accommodating, always making sure my boys felt safe and loved! I felt at ease knowing they were in great care.
Ann has been an absolute lifesaver for us! She is incredibly kind, super responsive, and always reliable—everything you could hope for in a dog walker. She’s also been very flexible with scheduling, which has made a huge difference for us. Most importantly, my dog Betty absolutely loves her. Betty gets so excited on the days Ann comes to walk her, and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s in such caring and capable hands. Ann walks her three times a week, and I’ve noticed such a positive impact on Betty’s happiness and routine. I can’t recommend Ann enough!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog is welcome in our home and on our furniture, and will be treated as one of our own. I have solid fencing on 3 sides of my backyard, with a metal fence on one side. (4 feet high with 3 3/4 inches between the vertical rails.) I will supervise your dog in the yard or take them outside on a long lead, as needed. I appreciate clear instructions on how you would like your pet cared for, and I will follow them respectfully. Does your dog have a favorite toy? Are there specific training guides you would like reinforced? Do they prefer to play alone or with other dogs? Just let me know what they need and I will be happy to accommodate them whether at your home or mine.
A typical day
Favorite toys are always appreciated so I can keep your dog engaged and happy. Our walks can take us along creeks and past livestock and through the neighborhood. Belly rubs and back scratches are always on hand.
