Availability

I'm currently a full-time college student and am typically able to provide potty breaks around every 4 hours (can discuss pets who need them more frequently, just a generalized estimate) except on Fridays, where I am currently in class from 8:00 am until roughly 4:30 pm. My schedule for the summertime will be updated upon the end of the semester, as I am also taking up phlebotomy schooling! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns about my availability, as I try to be flexible to every pets needs . I just want to make sure I'm the best fit for your animal and can give them the most stable and comfortable care possible! Please ask for further details or to ask any questions ! I'm happy to answer :)

Safety, trust & environment

As a sitter, I really try to focus on understanding each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether a dog is a bit anxious and needs a calm, reassuring presence, or is a goofy playful pup who needs a goofy playful friend I meet them right where they are. I always aim to create a safe, comfortable, and stable environment for them and after knowing them for a bit I can really learn what they would benefit from the best! I always am very careful to stick to the care instructions left by the pet parents! I always appreciate all advice from pet parents on how to best care for their pups because at the end of the day they know them the very best and are their best friends :)

Information Anna F. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know as much as I can so I can provide the best, most informed care possible :) Please let me know if they struggle with seperation anxiety, require any medications, have any medical conditions, etc. I'd also love to know about their personality! Favorite activities, toys, of course treats :) anything that helps me know how to best support them! I want to make them feel like they're just having fun with a new friend while mom/dad takes care of what they need to!

A typical day

When I’m with your dog (or other furry friends) , we do whatever makes them happiest! If they love to have zoomies around the yard with their favorite toy, then I love to be right there with them throwing the toy! If they’re more into cuddling up on the couch and getting belly rubs, I’m happy to do that too. It’s all about making sure they have fun and feel right at home in a time where they might be a little anxious about being alone.

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m Anna, and I’ve spent the last few years making four-legged friends (including bunnies) part of my daily life. I totally get that some dogs are shy or a little anxious, my own dog is like that too—so I’m all about giving them the gentle, patient care they need to feel at ease. On the flip side, if your pup is a little bundle of energy, I’m right there with them, ready to play and have fun. I’m also very good at picking up on how pets are feeling, and I’ve got experience giving medications that are both oral and injections, as well as helping with separation anxiety. I do give a mean “deep tissue head massage” that my own dog absolutely loves! I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy, understood, and right at home in a time where they may be anxious being away from you, or even if they just need a quick drop in while you're at work! I'm here to help :)

Anna is phenomenal! She was extremely attentive to our large Staffie and followed every last detail of our instructions for him. She also was very communicative, sending us photos and videos of our boy multiple times a day and keeping us updated on how he was doing in our absence. Anna will certainly be our first choice for dogsitting going forward, and she should be yours as well!

Anna was amazing for my two dogs and one cat. She sent us photos daily, and was a great communicator when things went awry (like carpenter ants coming in the house!) She also left the house remarkably clean and even asked if we wanted her to strip the bed and run the dishwasher when she knew we were coming home! We had a late flight, and she made sure to stay until we were in the air before she left. It is rare to find someone so thoughtful with not only your animals, but your house. By the end of our trip it was like Anna was a friend than a rover sitter- that was more than happy to hang out with everyone. Of all of the people on this platform- Anna is the one you want to book. Thank you, Anna!

Anna was fantastic! Our dogs LOVED her and she loved them back! She took great care of them, sent pics daily, and we texted every day of our trip with updates. She also took great care of our home! Everything was neat and clean when we arrived home. It is such a pleasure to come home to happy pups and a clean home!!! Will definitely have Anna sit for us again and again! 🐶🏠⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our three golden retrievers and tabby cat had a great time with Anna while we were away and provided us with lots of photos and updates during the stay! It was good having a peace of mind while away.
