Knowledgeable and caring

Pet care experience

I care for any pet like my I would own. I know how hard it is to leave your babies because they might as well be a member of the family. Saying that, I promise I will treat them as such! Beside my natural love for animals and past petsitting jobs, I have worked at our local animal shelter for 2+ years now so I do not lack experience in caring for animals of all different personalities and sizes. I have also been a foster mom to a few dogs and lots of cats, so I have experience introducing them into my own pack without issue. I am confident in handling even some of the most stubborn dogs but also happy to be extra patient with our shy friends. I have also spent time working in a vet clinic and have been trained to give medication via pills, topical, and injection, as well as wound care and broken bones. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

Like most people, we hate leaving our baby. She is a rescue and a bit anxious. Our dog took to Anna almost right away and she did an amazing job!

Anna dropped in to let my dog out midday during a busy week. She was wonderful! I appreciated that she communicated quickly and thoroughly. Our dog Iris had a blast with her. Definitely recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I cater to any and all needs. I have a blind cat, a people-reactive dog, and a dog with extreme anxiety so you can trust me with any of your pets special needs.

Information Anna R. would like to know about your pet

It would be important to know how well your pet handles new things. I know for my nervous nelly, change can be stressful so I would like to keep things as normal as possible.

A typical day

A typical day for me and my pups (when I'm off from work) usually begins with a game of fetch or tug-of-war in the backyard. We spend most of the day relaxing with some potty breaks outside. Later in the afternoon I like to do some mental enrichment with doggy puzzles, sniff games, or kongs! My dogs also always get late night zoomies, so you can sometimes find us out in the yard running around before bedtime. If I'm working, I make sure they have plenty of time in the yard before I leave around 9. I sometimes stop home for lunch, but my partner gets home at 3, so they are never alone for too long either way. When I get home at 5, we either go for a walk or play a game of fetch. I like to give each dog some individual time/attention.
