Availability

I’m currently a rising senior at UC Berkeley so my schedule is fairly busy during most weekdays of the academic year (especially afternoons), but I have more availability in the evenings to dog-walk and do drop-ins. I also have multiple breaks during the day usually, so midday often works for me. For house sitting, my availability is typically limited to the weekends, Fri-Sun since I have classes during the week and want to make sure your fur baby gets the best treatment possible. At the moment I’m not offering boarding since I’m a student and have roommates, but I may add that service in the future!

Safety, trust & environment

Since I’m away for college, I miss my pup so much! Rover has been such an amazing way to meet all the sweet pups and kitties in the neighborhood since I don’t have any of my own right now. I have a yard and there are also multiple grassy parks within blocks of my apartment building. I’ve also become very familiar with the Northside, Southside, and Central Berkeley neighborhoods through my clients on Rover! There are tons of lovely streets, parks, and sniffing grounds. As for house sitting, give me a couple directions/instructions and I’ll be set! I have prior experience staying in client homes and am easily adaptable to whatever your needs may be.

Information Anna S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors ahead of time, please. I can accommodate for most, but I’d like to be informed before accepting a booking!

A typical day

I love to mentally stimulate and play with all types of dogs, large or small, and have experience with both. I have lots of parks near my apartment that we would definitely check out where we can play games or fetch. And of course your pup will have a chance to explore the neighborhood and all the awesome smells nearby. No matter what, I already know that we’re bound to have an amazing time together!

Pet care experience

**UPCOMING AVAILABILITY: I will be in Seattle, WA from August 11-25! My sweet senior lab, Thor, became diabetic and began losing his vision about 5 years ago when he started getting older. Since then, I’ve gained experience with insulin shots, eye drops, timed feedings/strict schedules, and overall senior care. His brother, Boone, passed from cancer 3 years ago, but prior, he had a prosthetic boot due to a permanently torn ligament in his hind leg. Both of my own dogs have given me a lot of important skills that set me apart from other sitters, and the ability to care for dogs with all kinds of conditions, but on top of that, I also have experience working with others’ pets. I have cat and dog sat multiple times for two different neighbors since I was about eleven. This included detailed instructions, schedules, litter boxes (cats), occasionally walking (dogs), and feeding. I’ve also gained lots of experience here in Berkeley through Rover! Including pups that are leash reactive, high energy, some that suffer from separation anxiety, seizure-prone, scared/nervous, and more.

Anna took care of our senior dog at our home during a long weekend. She was a wonderful sitter for Dottie, treating her like her own. Anna was comfortable administering eye drops and handling Dottie’s medical issues. She was also very communicative and professional. Highly recommend!
