Pet care experience

College is Ruff... I Need Dog Time

I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 11, when my mom brought home our first family dog a sweet little Shih Tzu who started it all. At 16, I got my own dog, an energetic Australian Shepherd, and since then, animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve helped take care of neighbors’ dogs and cats over the years and even fostered pups with my college roommates, which taught me how to handle all kinds of personalities and needs. Whether your pet is high-energy or more laid-back, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’m here to make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away!

Annalisa was amazing. She watched my dog for 4 days and was great at sending daily updates. She even offered to drop him off due to help with some returning flight delays. Would definitely recommend and schedule with her again. Thanks Annalisa!

Annalisa is great with my dogs. She has amazing patience and is very caring. She is reliable, on time and very eager to care for them. When my dogs see her, they both get very excited. It is evident that she loves animals, because she is always ready to care for them. I highly recommend Annalisa.

Annalisa was so sweet and did an amazing job watching my pitbull puppy for three days! She kept him happy, active, and even said he had no accidents. She sent me pictures throughout, which was so reassuring. I could tell he was comfortable and loved while I was away. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

We loved having Annalisa watch our two Labs while we were on vacation. She was very reliable, responsible, patient and took great care of our dogs.

I'm a student with a lot of free time between classes, which means I have plenty of time to fit in walks, playtime, and lots of attention for your pup! I love being active and spending time with dogs, so I enjoy making pet care a regular part of my daily and weekly routine!

Safety, trust & environment

I offer both dog walking and in-home pet care, and I always make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. When I’m caring for your pets, I follow your routine as closely as possible whether that means feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, or just some relaxing company. I respect your space and your pet’s comfort, and I always aim to keep things stress-free and familiar for them. For walks, I make sure your pup gets the right mix of exercise and fun based on their energy level and needs. I follow any instructions you leave (like leash preferences, walking routes, or post-walk care) and always make safety a top priority!

A typical day

I’m super active, so your pup can count on walks, fetch, tug-of-war, and plenty of playtime. I’m also happy to take them on trails, to the park, or just hang inside for a belly rub! Whatever makes them happiest!
