My fulltime job only requires my attention 3 days a week, this opens up the majority of my week to do the things I love. Painting, reading, gardening, and spending time with my pets - and now yours too!

About Annastasia G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have three dogs and one cat in my home. While my cat is vastly independent and doesnt require much beyond some 1-1 time and basic needs being met. All three of my dogs are different breeds, in different health and life stages, and require different things. I break up my week to make sure each of these goals get met: - One outing a week doing something they find enjoying (lake day, long hike, play date, pet friendly store shopping) - Three 1:1 walks a week - Five pack walks a week In addition to these baseline goals my dogs also practice house manners, obedience skills, and learn new tricks during thier daily 1:1 and group training sessions. They also earn all thier meals through their training sessions, during thier walks, and through completing a food puzzle or food finding activity. Its my hope that during my time with your pup they can get thier mind at ease during your absence by fulfilling thier mental and physical needs. During our meet and greet I look forward to learning your daily goals with your pup and then helping them achieve them so when you return both you and your pet at ready to simply unwind for the day.
Information Annastasia G. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know your pups! Age, Name, Breed, Gender, and any other quirks or special needs he/she has before requesting a meet and greet. Commonly restricted breeds will not be turned away for a bad rappor! Dog's with a bite history who are legally allowed to leave the home with a muzzle in place and have been desensitized to a basket styled muzzle being secured onto thier body is okay with me. Please don't leave out poor behavior, if your dog has reactivity issues just be transparent. I look forward to being part of your team effort to meet your dog's physical and mental needs, reguardless of thier quirks!
A typical day
I love watching a dog's confidence grow as they play food finding games. Swapping out a normal food bowl for a fun game of "hide and seek" with thier meal within boxes, a room in the home, or a secure backyard is a naturally relaxing way for your dog to work thier mind and body through the natural activity of foraging. Flirt poles, herding balls, and tennis balls are also great go to's.

Reviews
I was extremely pleased with the 8 days with 3 drop ins per day. Penny & Mr. Boots had the same disposition as when I left. The 8 days allowed me to drive to NH to surprise my son for his 50th b’day. Many thanks to Annastatia for her care of my dog & cat.
Excellent! Annastasia took great care of our dogs, brushing them out, taking them shopping, giving them treats, etc - over and above the necessary duties. She was flexible, easy to work with, and responded quickly. We will definitely use her again.
They were great with my pup! He came home very tired and happy from all the walks and play time ☺️
Annastasia was amazing with our pup and treated her like one of her own. We got numerous updates which put me at peace (our puppy was only 9 weeks old when she stayed with her). Would definitely recommend!!
