Pet care experience
Hi there! I love dogs and am recently retired with plenty of free time to share my love with them. I've owned many dogs and been pet sitting for over a decade, with experience in the care of senior dogs, delivering medication (both oral and subcutaneous), and light grooming. My favorite thing is getting to know a dog well. While your dog is in my care, I will treat him or her like my own. A pet is a family member that I love to give part of my heart.
Reviews
Ann is my sister and has been an animal lover and nurturer her whole life. From the family pets she cared for years ago in our childhoods to the pets she raised as an adult with her own children, Ann cultivated the heart and temperament of a person who truly loves animals and is devoted to their welfare. She is a responsible and sensible person who can take proper care of the day to day needs of a domestic pet, and can be trusted to notice signs of illness or distress in a pet that might need referral to veterinary or other special care. She has experience with animals with chronic illness and old-age disabilities, and can administer medications to animals in pill and injectable forms. Dogs and cats alike respond happily to her on their first meeting, and sense her friendly and steady personality.
Ann is incredibly caring and thoughtful. She is a lifetime animal lover and will love your pet as if he or she is her own. I always trust her to take care of my rescued beagle when I have to go on work trips; he is very hesitant around new people, but opened up to her easily and runs to greet her whenever she's near! I highly recommend Ann to watch your dog.

I want to make your dog feel as comfortable as possible, so if your dog has any special preferences (treats, toys, or activities) please let me know. I want things to feel normal for your dog when you're not there.
A typical day
I most enjoy entertaining your dog doing whatever he or she is comfortable with. I love walking dogs through the many area parks on trails, as well as playing a healthy game of catch! I am happiest when your dog is active and happy! I will gladly send daily updates on your dog, if requested, so you can know how much fun your pup is having.
