Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to take them out to potty based on their needs and behaviors. At least every 2-3 hours. I also make sure to play with them based on their needs. I understand and value training and behavioral importance for a dog. I know my home may be a new environment for your dog, so I always pay more attention when meeting a dog for the first time and bringing them into my home. I make sure to be stern with the dog as needed especially when they need to go in their crate or are misbehaving. I don’t mind kibble/dog food/human food depending on what the owner asks to do. When I feed them I also replace their water bowl so that they have fresh water. I also provide lots of pets and love if the dog allows it :)

Information Anna F. would like to know about your pet

Whether your dog can or can’t have table scraps, any dietary restrictions, where and how your dog sleeps if he/she has any issues overnight, whether your dog needs attention when being played with or not if he/she tends to destroy toys, and anything else I need to know about!

A typical day

Lots of walkies and playing with whatever I see is safe and attracts your dog. If your dog is dog friendly we will go to the off leash dog area at golden gardens. We usually hike once or twice a month so if it aligns we can take your dog safely with us! I live next to the Ballard breweries so we might stop by those as well!

Great sitter! Very accommodating and attentive to my dog, asking lots of questions and giving updates throughout his stay. He looked super relaxed and comfy with them in his update pics. Would definitely book again!

Anna was great with our dog Max! This was our first time leaving him with a sitter and she made us feel comfortable and confident he was in good hands! Communication was great and we received photos and updates often. We would love to have her watch him again. Thank you!

Anna took on our Boston Terrier (10 years old), Lulu, while we were on vacation and visiting family abroad. She really helped us out when our previous sitter could no longer take dogs in. We received several picture sets over the course of our vacation showing Lulu enjoying the holidays with a big family. You could tell she loved all the attention and play. When we came back Lulu had already had a walk and done her business which was a boon as both my wife and I were really jet lagged. We'd use Anna again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to others here as well.

Anna and Adam were excellent! They did a great job taking care of Baker. They sent a lot of pictures and he clearly had a great time with them.
