Best Friend of Man's Best Friend

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Anna! I have been with dogs my entire life, but I have been dogsitting for three years now. It started out just watching my aunt's dogs, and now it's grown! I do have experience administering medication to pets, so that is not an issue for me. I have had dogs in my home all of my life, and I have always taken very good care of them. I've volunteered in animal shelters and at the Equest Center for Therapeutic Riding in Rockford, MI leading, grooming, feeding and caring for horses. I also volunteered with Pets for Vets. I currently work as a cook in a restaurant, so my hours are a little all over the place. Please keep this in mind as I may not be able to spend all of my time with your pets. I will definitely be able to stop in and care for them, but I will not be able to constantly be with them. In my free time, I like to do needlepoint crafts, knit, bake, and golf. I also enjoy photography. I currently have two dogs, a senior sharpei mix named Walter and a 2 year pit Bull mix named Joe. Walter is blind & has arthritis, so I do have some experience with special needs and senior dogs. I’ve also taken care of senior pets who have seizures and are deaf.

We were very happy with our experience with Anna - and so were our dogs. Anna is consciencious, left the house clean after an overnight dog sitting, and the dogs were well cared for. Thanks Anna!

Anna did an awesome job dog sitting my two fur babies in my home. We appreciated that she did everything as she was asked with our senior dog and we came home to happy pups and a clean home. We will be having anna back soon!!

Anna is a great dog sitter the dog loves her like she's family and that's the most important aspect because animals are the best judge of character. If they are tenative I wouldn't leave him with them but with Anna it's like they have been around her all the time. I wouldn't recommmend anyone who my dog doesn't like two paws up we can leave without worry and know my dogs safe at home and being cared for like I was at home. Cheaper than a boarding kennel and better cared for and happier.

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately I cannot accept pets into my own home as I live in an apartment, but I can visit your home and take care of your pets as you’d like me to. I always make sure to lock up before I leave and top off water and/or food if you’d like me to.

Information Anna C. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have any aggressive behaviors, such as food aggression or aggression over a particular area they don't like to be petted? Does your dog need any medication, and if so, how is it administered? Dosage and times per day? How often and how much does your dog need to be fed?

A typical day

Let me know if your dog has any favorite toys to play with and I’ll make sure to use those ones! I enjoy walking dogs very much!
