Safety, trust & environment

I can crate if needed and become familiar with the rules of the house for the pet(s) (I.e. don’t allow them in certain areas, help them with stairs, etc.). I make sure any messes they make are cleaned up. I make sure to clean up after myself and will follow instructions to clean linens if requested.

Information Anna S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you pet has any special needs or things I need to know ahead of time. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable with me and that I don’t do anything to upset them that may not be usual. I’ve experienced different pets with “weird” or different quirks and it’s helpful to know in advance so I can be sure that they are comfortable and feel safe. If they have unusual and regular triggers that would be helpful as well.

A typical day

I love pets and cuddles and also playing. Fetch, tugging and practicing tricks is fun. Walks are important so I will be sure to give your dog exercise. I will make sure to follow care instructions and feeding instructions. I will make sure there are frequent bathroom breaks for your dogs.

Pet care experience

I’ve pet sat and owned a different variety of pets. I am an animal lover and have cared for all ages from puppies to senior and kittens who were bottle fed to seniors. Although I am not technically certified in dog CPR, I know it and have watched videos and reads up on it and have practiced. I plan to look into if it is possible to be certified in it.

Anna is an amazing pet & house sitter! She made sure to check in multiple times a day with photos of our babies, took care of their needs, and also kept our house very clean! We definitely will be having her back to sit for us, and will gladly recommend her to others!

Anna took such good care of our kitty Pip while we were away. She was clearly well cared for and loved, and seemed to really take a liking to Anna. We received regular updates and photos, and Anna went above and beyond with Pip's feeding quirks. Also, she took excellent care of our apartment, going as far as vacuuming up and laundering the linens for us. We highly recommend Anna and will definitely use her services again!

Anna was great with Bella! She was super responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures. She took great care of Bella and our house while we were away.
