My referral code ANNAB94318, https://www.rover.com/sit/annab94318 Hello fellow animal lovers! I've had my own pet sitting and dog walking business on Rover since 2018. I took a break for a few years to work in special education for the school district but I'm happy to be back, meeting new pets and their parents. I've been taking care of animals all my life and I believe all animals are unique and deserve unconditional love. I have 2 dogs and a cat and they are definitely my babies! When I leave them in someone's care, I want only the most responsible, loving, and attentive person. I worry about them all the time and anxiously wait for photographic evidence that my dogs are healthy and happy! I'm the type of person who will sit down on the floor with your dog or cat, give lots of pets and grab the nearest toy. If your pet loves giving kisses and cuddling, I'm all about that! However, I do have experience with rescue dogs & cats so if your pet is skittish, shy, or has other behavioral problems, that's okay too! Please let me know what your pet is and is not comfortable with. I grew up in Newbury Park and in 2017 I received a B.A in Sociology from CSU Channel Islands. I am currently taking pre req classes at Pierce College in the hopes of entering the Registered Vet Tech program in the near future. I volunteer Monday evenings from 4-8 with the California Wildlife Center in Calabasas. I am in the NICU and I Iove it. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting you and your pets! ***The "Nightly Rate" refers to 24 hours of care for your pet. I can work on a sliding scale if needed :)

Safety, trust & environment

The safety and well-being of your pet is the most important thing to me. I am very careful about doors, fences, and gating and I will always make sure those things in your home and backyard are adequately closed/locked. I provide my full attention to your dog while on walks. I don't browse the internet while walking a dog or wear headphones because it's irresponsible and dangerous. I only use my phone to take pictures to send you.

House Sitting • Jul 17, 2023

Anna is the most professional and communicative sitter we have ever had. She was thoughtful and made a point to keep us filled in on how our pups were doing every day we were away. She went above and beyond and we will definitely be using her again!

House Sitting • Jul 09, 2023

Anna was a GODSEND for us! We just rescued two pups this week, and had to be away one of the weekend nights 6 days after getting the 3 year old - Beau, and two days after getting the 6 month old - Honey (both pittie mixes, unrelated). We needed someone to just keep an eye on them while we were gone, help keep them comfortable and calm. Anna had a great profile and reviews, so we contacted her. The pups are still getting to know each other, Beau has an injured leg, Honey was just spayed, so juggling keeping them separated and content was important! The 3 year old was training well, but the puppy was having separation anxiety issues and didn’t want to be in her pen. She would rile up Beau when she heard a noise. The dog sitting would be over dinner time. Long story (sort of) short- it was A LOT to manage. Anna was so positive and relaxed- clearly comfortable with managing the two. She obviously sincerely loves dogs. She was patient with the puppy and gave her the structured attention she needed while still getting Beau affection. She was responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures. I was so worried, but she set my mind at ease. They were by no means an easy pair, and she handled it like the pro she is! Can’t recommend her enough! Anna is wonderful!

Anna was wonderful with my cats. She sent pictures and they clearly adored her. She got the house ready for my return and even left me a couple of gifts! She is calm and nurturing and my cats were very happy. Thank you Anna!

Anna did an amazing job with our senior dog. She sent daily pictures and updates and It was so nice not to have to worry about anything while we were away. Thanks so much, Anna! I will be in touch for when we go out of town next. Thanks for the sweet plant and card as well. You are the best!

I would like to know food preparation, medications, allergies, and vet details in case of an emergency. I also want to know the things that makes your pup or cat special- personality traits, favorite toys, spots to be rubbed, etc. :)
