Highlights
Pet care experience
Golden retriever energy
Hello! I am Anna. I have experience caring for young and elderly dogs from Newfoundland’s, labs, boxers, and border collies, and a few cats here and there. I have worked with dogs (and cats) that are a bit higher maintenance and need more day to day care (medication, special food, etc) as well as pups who are very easy going. While in Iceland I also took care of two arctic foxes at the Arctic Fox Center, with daily feeding and playing in their enclosure. I’d be very excited to meet any dogs or cats who need some care while their parents are out of town, or who just need a walk every so often throughout the week. I am back in the US visiting family right now with a variable schedule as I will occasionally pick up shifts working in marine mammal protection or as an EMT. Looking forward to meeting your best friends!

Safety, trust & environment
I have always been taught to leave a place better than I found it, so you can rest assured I will find a way to do that if you ask me to stay in your home. I like to ensure pets feel comfy and cozy in their homes while I’m there or when I pop in for a visit. I like to make sure the pet has everything they need and that all hazards are out of reach. Growing up with a Newfoundland and multiple labs this is something I know all too well.
Ratings and reviews
Anna was a phenomenal house sitter and cat watcher. She made a huge effort with both cats to get them comfortable and happy with her there. She took very good care of the home and left it cleaner than she found it. She was very communicative and sent photos often. I would really recommend Anna as a pet and/or house sitter!
Anna was a rockstar! Our dog Maverick was well taken care of on our week long trip. We will be using Anna in the future and highly recommend.
I highly recommend Anna and hope to use her again for dog/house sitting. Anna is responsible, responsive and respectful - all while taking great care of our dogs. If you choose Anna you will not be disappointed.
Anna is wonderful! She did great with our 3 month old lab pup!
If Anna is part of your life, you and your dog are very lucky! Anna is a very friendly and reliable person and I would never hesitate to leave my dog with her. I have seen her with many of my fosters and she is a true dog lover. I left my old boxer with her for a week which was more stressful for me than for the dog and she stayed in communication with me on a regular basis which helped a lot. She has ample experience with dogs and knows what she is doing!
While living in Iceland, Anna looked after two dogs with very different needs and met their individual requirements with a high level of commitment and care. She is extremely responsible, and knows the importance of your own dogs routine. The first dog was an old boy with a particular diet and routine requiring a great deal of patience, attention and tender love. The second was a spritely collie needing several daily walks with someone who asserted an authority to keep him from running wildly through lupine bushes. Anna has had several family dogs which has definitely lent her the know how and devotion to look after your pup!
