Availability
Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because I run a hair care and aerial silks entertainment business, both of which offer me a lot of flexibility. This gives me plenty of free time to dedicate to watching dogs and providing the attention they need. I enjoy balancing my professional work with caring for animals, and I’m able to adjust my schedule to ensure your pets get the best care possible!

About Anna M.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize their comfort and safety. If necessary, I can set up a separate room away from my cats to ensure a calm environment for the visiting pet. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and opportunities for exercise. In my clients' homes, I follow their routines and preferences, ensuring their pets feel secure and loved. I make sure to adhere to any specific instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and medication. My goal is to create a stress-free atmosphere for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own.

Information Anna M. would like to know about your pet
Health Conditions & Medications: It’s crucial to know if your pets have any medical issues, allergies, or require medications, so I can provide proper care and handle emergencies. Temperament & Behavior: Understanding how pets react to new people, other animals, or certain environments helps me create a comfortable and safe space for them. Feeding Schedule & Dietary Needs: I need to know about their feeding times, portion sizes, and any specific dietary restrictions or preferences. Exercise Routine & Energy Levels: Whether they’re high-energy or more laid-back, knowing their activity needs ensures I can tailor playtime and walks to suit them. Comfort Items & Preferences: Favorite toys, blankets, or routines that make pets feel safe and happy help me provide a familiar and enjoyable experience. Training or Commands: If pets are trained with certain commands or cues, it’s important to maintain consistency for their well-being.
A typical day
For Dogs: Playtime & Fetch: I’ll keep dogs active and engaged by playing fetch, tug-of-war, or their favorite toy games to burn off energy. Long Walks & Exploration: I love taking dogs on long, enjoyable walks where they can explore new scents and surroundings. Puzzles & Brain Games: I’ll incorporate puzzle toys or treat-dispensing games to challenge and mentally stimulate dogs, keeping them sharp and entertained. Cuddle Time: For dogs that love affection, I’m all about giving them the cozy cuddles and belly rubs they need! For Cats: Interactive Toy Play: I’ll engage cats with wand toys, laser pointers, or their favorite feather toys to bring out their playful side. Climbing & Exploration: If the cats enjoy it, I’ll encourage them to explore climbing towers or safe areas, offering a fun space for them to move around. Quiet Companionship: For cats that like calm environments, I’ll sit with them and let them relax nearby, providing gentle company without invading their space. Please let me know what works best for you

Pet care experience
Here’s a combined description for both cats and dogs, incorporating your experience with each: Hi, I’m Anna! I’ve spent 33 years caring for cats and 8 years working with dogs, providing loving, personalized care for pets of all ages. Whether it's walking dogs, administering medication to senior pets, or providing cuddles and attention during overnight stays, I’m here to ensure your pets feel safe and happy while you’re away. My own calm cats, Dracula and Mina, have been with me since they were kittens (they are now 12 & 10 years old), so I know just how unique each pet’s needs can be. From playtime to medication or just keeping them company, your furry family members will be in caring hands with me!
