Pet care experience
During the summer I am government contracted wildlife biologist researcher but in the winter I prefer to play with domestic animals. Caring for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles and fish for over 30 years. I also have trained animals under AZA guidelines from lizards, cats and dogs as well. I have been pet sitting for several years now in my off season and truly enjoy interacting with everyone's pets. I have a B.S. in Zoology from Olivet Nazarene University, and years of animal caretaking experience both personal and professional. I also trained as a zookeeper at Cosley Zoo in Wheaton, an AZA accredited institution. I am currently the V.P. of the board of directors for Illinois only 501c3 not for profit reptile rescue, Friends of Scales. I love walking and playing with dogs outside, and cats indoors!
Reviews
Anne was wonderful!!!! Duncan is not an easy pet and she handled his separation anxiety and his nervous/anxiety attacks like a pro. I’d book her again for sure next time I leave town.
Anne is our trusted go to for all of our animals! We have exotics and two dogs that require specialized attention and time commitments that Anne provides without hesitation. Fully recommend and endorse!
Anne was my dog Ernie’s walker and compadre- she was caring and kind, and Ernie thought she was the cat’s meow (sorry). She’ll treat your dog with the same care!

A typical day
I love to find parks and wildlife trails near the homes to walk thru, keep the senses firing while on our walks. I love to find dogs favorite toys, and play outside in a yard , after our walk. I bring laser pointers with to make sure I draw out the kitties and find their favorite toys as well. Before I leave, I like sit and calm the dog or cat down with head rubs and lots of attention.
