Annayah took such good care of our labradoodle while we were away for a week! We especially appreciated the responsiveness when booking as our original dog-sitting plans fell through just days before our trip. Our dog had never been away from us and he showed no signs of anxiety or stress when we picked him up, he got right back into routine at home. Would definitely book with Annayah again next time we have a chance to travel.

Annayah was communicative, friendly, and excited to meet my dog. She sent pictures showing my dog having a good time with everyone, and she walked him twice the 5 hour stay. I picked up my dog happy and well regulated. I will definitely contact her first next time I’m in Iowa City :) Thanks!

Pets

A typical day

A typical day includes walks around my calm neighborhood and nearby parks, playtime with lots of fun dog toys, naps, snacks, and plenty of attention and affection. I love engaging with each dog based on their energy level, whether that’s active play or relaxed cuddle time. My goal is to make sure every pup feels happy, stimulated, and cared for throughout the day!

Before caring for your pet, I’d like to know about their routine, temperament, feeding schedule, and any medical needs or allergies. Please let me know how they do with other dogs, if they have any fears or triggers, and what helps them feel most comfortable. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure your pet feels right at home ❤️🐾
