Pet care experience

Adventurous, Trustworthy, Reliable

Hello! I'm Anna, and dogs have been a cherished part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by dogs, I've developed a deep understanding and love for these incredible companions. Friends and family have consistently entrusted me with the care of their pets, knowing that I treat each one as if they were my own. Last year, I rescued my own puppy, Roo, who has brought immense joy and valuable lessons into my life. Through this experience, I've gained firsthand knowledge about the nuances of pet care. I've worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs, and I understand the unique needs at each stage of their lives. Handling dogs with reactivity and separation anxiety issues has been part of my journey. I've collaborated with several professional trainers to learn effective techniques for managing these challenges, ensuring that every dog I care for feels secure and happy. My goal is to go above and beyond in providing exceptional care for your beloved pets. I understand how special they are to you, and I'm committed to making sure they receive the best care possible. Whether it's a daily walk or pet sitting while you're away, you can trust that your furry friend is in experienced and loving hands.

Safety, trust & environment

Caring for Pets in My Home: I live in a cozy apartment, which is a perfect option for smaller pets to stay comfortably. My own dog, Roo, is incredibly friendly and enjoys the company of other pets. Roo can join us on walks, in the home, and even during drop-ins if you’re comfortable with it. If needed, I can also crate your dog to ensure their safety and comfort while in my home. Caring for Pets in Your Home: When I visit your home, I ensure your pet has everything they need for a safe and enjoyable experience. For walks, I provide all necessary tools, including a belt leash that offers several points of contact for added security. If desired, I can work on leash etiquette to help your dog develop better walking habits. During hikes, I keep your dog on a leash at all times and practice safety measures, ensuring they have plenty of water and rest. My goal is to provide a trustworthy and safe environment, whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home. I strive to make each experience positive and enjoyable for your beloved furry friend.

Anna is terrific! She's always on time, very professional. My dog loves her, and he's much better behaved on walks than he is with me or my husband. I feel very lucky to have "found" her.

Anna has gotten my dog over his reluctance to leave home and go on a walk. The distance has steadily increased to include the whole time. Much appreciate your persistence Anna!

As well as being really affectionate to my pooch, Anna is really on the ball. I feel fortunate to have her walking my dog.

Schedule

Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily routine. I take my personal dog, who is incredibly friendly to every dog, on long walks or hikes every day, so adding an additional furry friend to our adventures would be a seamless fit. Despite working part-time, I spend most of my free time at home, playing with and caring for my puppy. This allows me to be flexible and available for multiple pet care visits throughout the day if needed. With a vehicle at my disposal, I can easily drop by your home to ensure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve, whenever required.
