Raised by Wolves

Pet care experience

"We don't deserve them." Dogs have been my world from day one. I was raised on farms and ranches in Wyoming and have passionately loved dogs since I can remember. My childhood labrador retriever, Sid, essentially helped raise me and was the first dog I ever loved. My childhood books were dog training manuals, my stuffed animals were all dogs, and my birthday party each and every year was Scooby-Doo-themed. To this day I take better care of my rescue dog, Junior, than I do myself. The connection we have with these beautiful creatures is something I thank the universe for each and every day. If the dogs are happy then I am happy. Daily exercise, the highest quality dog food, endless treats, and constant lovins, snuggles, and kisses are what every dog deserves and needs. I have fostered dogs and worked with local shelters to promote adoptions and educating on the importance of spaying and neutering. I have jumped in raging rivers to save dogs, emptied my savings account for emergency vet visits, and am trained and very experienced in preventing, predicting, and stopping dog fights. Extreme measures need to be taken at times to ensure the safety of dogs and I am not afraid to do whatever it takes. Nothing hurts more than seeing an animal suffer. Dogs seem to like me better than most humans. Trust me, a dog in my care is one happy dog.

Annalyn took care of our rescue kitty for a long weekend. He was well cared for and she left our house in perfect condition. Thanks Annalyn!

Annalyn was amazing to work with and we felt our pup Bella was in caring hands the entire time we were away. We traveled out of state for a long weekend and having a senior lab, we felt it would be best to keep her in the comfort of her own home so she doesn't become stressed out. Annalyn was up front and honest with us the entire time and it felt like she went out of her way multiple times to make sure that Bella was cared for and that we were comfortable with what was needed. I cannot thank Annalyn enough for the care she provided and she will absolutely be our go-to dog sitter/walker going forward!

Annalyn is an excellent caregiver. We have 4 big pitbulls, some young and some old. She took care of our dogs for years and she was able to give each dog exactly what they needed. Old dogs do different activities than young dogs, for example. One of our dogs also has a very strict diet, which she also took into account, and she actually helped to improve our oldest dogs allergies. She's full of knowledge about dogs and genuinely loves animals. She will absolutely treat your dogs with the respect they deserve. I never worried about our dogs when annalyn was around. A+

Safety, trust & environment

It is imperative and solely a humans responsibility to provide an animal with a safe, secure, clean, and comfortable environment. I am constantly in tune with a dog's emotion and state of being. Are they too hot? Is their water fresh and clean? Is something in their surroundings giving them stress? They seem anxious, a walk will help calm them. Stinky breath? A bone will make them happy and clean their teeth. Separation anxiety? Leave them with something that holds their owner's scent... it comforts them. Or maybe they enjoy the T.V playing in the background when they get left alone. Some dogs are escape artists? Well, it is your responsibility to ensure that they don't have access to escape and potentially go get hurt on the run. Your dog likes to chew stuff up that they aren't supposed to? It's your job to not let them access to dangerous things that they can chew. Upset tummy? Pumpkin, rice and turkey usually does the trick. I KNOW IT ALL!

Information Annalyn F. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of allergies, food aggression, leash aggression, seperation anxiety, favorite toys, favorite treats, thunder/lightening/firework fear, previous injuries, likes, dislikes, other fears. Each and every dog has their very own personality and the more details, the easier it is for me to provide them with prime care while they are in my hands.

A typical day

"A tired dog...is a good dog." Stimulation is key for all dogs. People don't enjoy sitting around being bored and neither do dogs. My day is incomplete if my dog doesn't get a walk or an outing. Athletic breeds need more than just a walk and I am a runner who loves to get miles in with a furry companion at my side. If time permits, hiking and exploring nature is the best form or exercise for all canines. Senior dogs also need exercise, and there is always time to take a short and calm stroll around the block.

I am currently working in the restaurant industry and the hours are fairly short, thus I have lots of free time to take care and exercise as many dogs as I can.
