Pet care experience

Veterinarian, flexible, reliable

I am a veterinarian, with experience working in small animal hospitals (with dogs and cats), on farms with cattle, sheep, and goats, wildlife rehabilitation centers, and volunteering with horses. I have been pet sitting since I was a child, and started through Rover in veterinary school! I love all animals and because of my education, I have a wide range of knowledge about different species. I used to work as a professional dog walker through my school, and our program re-homed shelter dogs, so I am knowledgeable about care and training for dogs. My previous cat was diabetic (see the Torbie in my photos!), so I have lots of experience giving medications and managing challenging medical problems. I grew up with a pet guinea pig and pet sat for my neighbors turtle as a teenager. I have tons of experience with animals, so you can trust that your animals will be safe and comfortable in my care!

Safety, trust & environment

My most important focus when working with animals is getting to know them, their personalities, and their boundaries! I really value gaining their trust and that means working at their pace. With my educational and work background, I am confident in managing medical conditions, giving injectable/oral medications to dogs and cats, and acting appropriately in case of an emergency. I truly care about your pets and want to make sure they get the best care, so you can rely on me to pay attention to them, work through any special needs, and accommodate their schedule.

Anna was wonderful with our girl, who warmed up to her very quickly. She was friendly and efficient; basically a joy to work with. I'd give her more stars if I could.

Anna was our go to pet sitter for around 8 years. During that time she took care of our three toed box turtle, Speedy, and guinea pig, Lily, with care and compassion. Anna would take the time to play with Lily and make sure she had enough hay and water. Anna would also find worms for Speedy to eat in our garden, change her water and give Speedy fruit to eat also. Anna was very punctual, responsible, and trustworthy. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter.

Please let me know if your pet has any medical considerations I should be aware of (ex: medications, food allergies, etc.). Additionally, please let me know if your dog has any reactivity (animals, dogs, cats, people, etc.) so I can be prepared. I feel pretty confident handling most dogs/other pets, but if you have any concerns please let me know and I am happy to accommodate you!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
