Animal behaviourist available for dog care :-)
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Anna :-) All round animal lover and canine fanatic! I have been around animals for as long as I can remember and got my first job working with animals at the ages of 14. Since then, I have worked as a falconer, animal trainer, natural history researcher and I currently work as a vets assistant where I handle dogs of all sizes and personalities on a daily basis. I have a first class BSc in animal behaviour and an MSc in animal behaviour, as well as being up to date on modern, force free dog training techniques. I am competent in handling nervous and anti- social dogs and feel confident in providing dog first aid. I have a full, clean driving licence.
Reviews
Anna is wonderful!! Fully trusted her to take care of our dog. She communicated with us well and really knows about dogs. It was the least-stressful and most care-free dog sitting experience we have had. Couldn't recommend her enough :)
Anna was absolutely brilliant with our puppy Bear! He can be quite nervous around strangers but we met up on some walks beforehand and he became so comfortable around her and loved his sleepover with her and her dogs. We will definitely come to Anna again for our pup!
Anna was absolutely amazing with the pups! Definitely has a genuine love for dogs and of course her veterinary background and speciality in dog behavior is huge plus. Very spacious home for the dogs and even more space to walk. I have found my go to sitter for sure
Anna is The Best! She's fantastic with all animals, she's reliable and has a wonderful way and manner with dogs. I definitely recommend Anna as a dog walker.
About Anna F.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a secure, fenced garden and do not tend to leave dogs alone when I am being paid to look after them. I pride myself on keeping a nice, clean house with pleny of beds and water down so dogs do not compete for resources. No toys, food or treats are left down when I have client's dogs in the house to avoid any tension between animals in the house. I have no problem in giving your dogs daily medication should they need it. I do not let client's dogs off the lead until I have met them a few times and only with owners permission.
Home
Information Anna F. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know how your dog is with other animals on and off the lead. I would like to know if your dog has good recall and if you would like me to keep him/her on the lead. I would like to to know if your dog resource guards food, beds or toys. I would like to know if your dog is crate trained. I would like to know if your dog can be left for short periods of time, or if they suffer from any separation anxiety. I would like to know if your dog has any prey drive.
A typical day
Hiding food in the garden to watch the dogs use their noses (only with dogs that do not resource guard and only with food preapproved by the owner!).

Availability
I work 4 days a week at a veterinary clinic but I am free most weekends and Friday's/ Tuesdays and love nothing more than going for long walks with my dogs. I have four dogs, three of which come to work with me and I have a lovely dogwalker who looks after my other dog when I am not there as he struggles to be in the busy environment in my work place.
