Pet care experience

20+ Yrs Caring for Pets Like Family

I’ve been caring for pets for over 20 years, starting at a young age and continuing through friends, family, and repeat clients who trust me with their pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, from playful puppies to older dogs needing a slower, more attentive pace. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and consistent environment where dogs feel comfortable and cared for. Whether it’s walks, feeding routines, or simply spending quality time, I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and personality. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely enjoy building trust with both pets and their owners. Your dog will be treated with patience, care, and a lot of affection while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing thoughtful care you can trust.

Anna is great! She watched my minipoodle while Inwas at work. She was reliable and easygoing. My dog felt automatically comfortable with her. I will be booking her again!

I had a wonderful experience with Anna when I was looking for someone to stay with my aging cat, he needed to be held and loved to be held and rubbed a lot. He was on medication that needed to be administered by mouth, which was not easy, but she was excellent at administering. I was distraught about leaving him at that point, but Anna was very easy to work with, and went above and beyond to love on him like I did. My baby was so in love with her and I knew he was happy! Thank you Anna for all your support. Meant so much to us!❤️

I’ve known Anya for a while and she’s always been amazing with animals. She’s calm, patient, and really tuned into what pets need. I’d trust her with my pet anytime without hesitation.

Schedule

I work from home on the Westside of Santa Cruz, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care, and I can adjust my routine to meet your pet’s specific needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being a reliable support for pet owners.

I like to learn as much as possible about your pet ahead of time so I can provide the best care. Please let me know about their routine, feeding schedule, energy level, and any specific behaviors or sensitivities.
