Palm Springs, CA
Graduate with some Vet experience
Pet care experience
I grew up with at least one dog in the household. I have always had a fondness for animals in passing as a kid and a desire to help animals when I grew up. I made it part of the way there, but life events got in the way and I had to put that dream on hold. Up to that point, I have had 3 years of experience in the veterinary field, job shadowed for 2 day clinics, worked at an emergency clinic, and did an internship at another day clinic. I am able to remain calm if an emergency situation were to arise. Currently, I live with a roommate that does not contribute to rent or pay any bills but stays at home almost all the time. Her name is Lily and we've been together since she was a puppy, going to 14 years this November. I keep a timely routine for her day, feeding and going to the bathroom at consistent times with some sprinkles of walking around during the day. She is fully up to date with her vaccinations and if she were to come in contact with your pet, she keeps to herself and very slowly, not quite 100%, warms up to them.
Reviews
Anna is wonderful and is prompt and communicative. We love using her to sit for us!
We have had Anna take care of Bella twice now and would not hesitate to have her again, she is prompt, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Bella responds well to Anna and we will continue to use Anna to sit for our senior girl!
Anna was wonderful - great communicator, arrived on time and promptly responded to messages. She sent several pics of our girl and - we will definitely use Anna again!
Anna was super great and very communicative. My fur babies got along with her super great and even cried after she left! There was an emergency that came up and she helped us find the local vet clinic and was super attentive and caring. Would definitely recommend to anyone out there to book with Anna. She’s truly the best.
About Anna V.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am capable of administering medication and can enforce basic command training in between. I want to be able to get to know your pet before leaving them in my care to ensure familiarity. Gaining one's trust should not be taken lightly and I would be ecstatic if your pet allows me to work with them. Should we go on walks or play, rest assured your pet will not enter a dog park.
Information Anna V. would like to know about your pet
Knowing the rules of your household for the safety of your fluffball is very important as well as the specifics of your pets' needs. Whether they require medication, special diets, or anything else, I am all to learning how to take care of your best friend! Knowing if they are up to date on their vaccinations and how they interact with others, whether animal or human, is vital. TLDR: You'll get so many questions as I want to cover all bases and knowledge of your pet. Please note -- I will respond as soon as I can but may be working.
A typical day
Depending on the breed, the day can consist of going to hiking trails or walking around the neighborhood, with plenty of water available. We can also play tug of war or fetch in your yard. Or even just relax together inside with music in the background.

Availability
Got extra time on my hands after my fulltime job, why not work with things I love? I am able to walk, play with, chat, and/or relieve your pets while you're at your shift or out and about during the day.
