Reliable responsible dog care

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm with a herd of dogs and I have always had a furry sidekick by my side! I've fostered, rescued a wide range of dogs and understand how to meet their needs, and make them feel safe. My experience allows me to be proactive when it comes to taking care of any animal. I currently have one little dog named Coco staying with me. She is very adaptable with other animals, and is not aggressive in anyway. However, please let me know if your dog has any behavioral issues before staying with me in order to keep both of our animals safe. You can trust me with your animals! I have a flexible schedule, and am here to accommodate! I have a secure back yard with lovely grass and warm sun for your dog to lounge in after getting the wiggles out. If your pet has any special needs or if they could benefit from accommodations, do not hesitate to ask me for anything. I take Rover seriously because I use it too. I believe in it as an affordable option for dog care and boarding that is tailor made for the owner and pet. I've had pets get seriously ill boarding with high dollar veterinary clinics and paid dearly for it. I won't let a change in your pet's behavior, health, or daily routine go unnoticed or unspoken. I've had a wide range of experiences with almost every type of dog with every type of temperament, breed, age, and level of comfort with humans. My own dog Coco is a dog I found and caught on a road that had been damaged by flooding in Eastover, SC. She was almost entirely not domestic, emaciated, cold, and quite frankly at times impossible. The level of stress combined with the toll of the elements made for a valuable learning experience for me. I've become a master at being an anxious dogs calm in the worst circumstances. My time volunteering at the old and new Kershaw County Humane Society Animal Shelter for yearstaught me a lot of patience and skills to make myself someone a dog can trusts. My experience with rescue and rehabilitation has given me what at times feels like too much experience with emergency veterinary and what to do when a dog needs help now. Your dog will never be exposed to any dangerous animals in my care. However, this is important to add because I like to know this when I let anyone care for my dog. If I am asked to care for your dog in a public setting and an aggressive animal attacks, I have and never will hesitate to break it up in a controlled and concise manner. On a more joyful note! I am gifted at catching your pup's best moments. I love to take pictures and videos of your pets at ease. Thank you for considering me to watch your furry friend!

Very kind and flexible! Our plans got cancelled last minute so we ended up not needing our dog to be watched and Anna was very flexible and easy to work with ?

Anna K made my pups first time using Rover a breeze. She sent the cutest photos of her with her dog. I could not get enough. Definitely will book her again.

I can finally travel in peace with Anna K’s help. She's been a consistent part of my routine for months now and I can't replace her!

Anna K never fails to pick up the phone when I need her! She is accommodating, kind, and makes me and my little girl Angel very happy customers! I love using Rover because of Miss AK.
