Knowledgeable Pet Sitter!

Pet care experience

I am responsible and have always loved all animals from the moment I knew about them. I went to college to become a Veterinary Technician. I have more knowledge to take care of your pets. Therefore, I can recognize problems if they were to arise and know what actions to take to keep your pet safe. I have experience with special needs pets. I have also graduated from Animal Behavior College and can help you with your dog training questions. I have 3 dogs (Shih Tuz), and 4 birds (a green-cheek conure, 2 cockatiels, and a Quaker). I am willing to watch any type of animal if you have more than dogs. I will take care of your pets as if they where mine own pets & spoil them. I would love to take care your pets while you’re away! I look forward to hearing from you! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover as long as I can remember. I have been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with them. I had also known I wanted to work with animals since I was 5 years old. I love that I get to work with animals everyday and really enjoyed my career as a Veterinary Technician helping and caring for them. I have always been told that dogs trust me when they don't trust other people. I have never meet a dog that I did not like. I also worked at a doggie daycare and would supervise up to 15 dogs at a time. Through this job, I observed dog behavior and learned a lot about how dogs act and how they behave. My experience administering medication Yes, I am very comfortable giving medication. I also can give insulin shots. I have a Veterinary Technician background and was fully trained in giving medications.

Anna did an amazing job with my 3 babies!! She gave me daily updates and her mom even came by during the day to help take them out. This is our 3rd time using her & we will continue to do so!

First time hiring a dog sitter and we were very satisfied with Annie! The dogs seemed happy and well cared for, and she sent us pictures and updates. Definitely will hire her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure pets are secure in the backyard or thier cage before openings outside doors to prevent any escapes. I was a Veterinary Technician and dog trainer and watch for signs of illness & stress that your pets may have while your away. I don't advise doing walks for the first couple of stays as a safety precaution for the dog. I want the dog to be completely comfortable & trust me before going on walks.

Information Anna Marie R. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, I love all dog breeds! I would want to know if a pet is a door dasher, so that I know to take precautions to prevent their escape. Also, if they are taking any medications or have any health concerns, so I can monitor them more closely. I provide services in Fenton, Affton, Arnold, Kirkwood, Webster Grooves, Des Peres, South County, West County, High Ridge, House Springs. There may be more not listed just contact me & I will let know. I don't provide services in Richmond Heights, O' Fallon and surrounding area, the downtown/ city St. Louis area & IIinois area. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I charge extra for longer distanced places. I can only do non-smoking homes. My asthma is made worse by smoke. Thank you for understanding this. I also can provide 1 drop in visit a day for cats and small animals (rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, ect.) while you are out of town. I don't provide drop-in visit for dogs. Dogs need more interaction and care and do better with overnight stays than with drop in visits. Dogs need more attention.

A typical day

I will try and accommodate your dog's normal routine with feeding times, walks, bed times, ect. We can go over your pets routine at our meet and greet. Extra house-sitting services Yes, I am willing to do any additional tasks that you ask. I am also willing to take care birds, cats, and small pets. Included for no extra costs: Bring in mail, packages, newspapers, take trash & recycle on pick-up days, I watch your house for any suspicious activity, pet medication/injections/supplement administration, fill outside bird feeders, & water plants
