Highlights
Pet care experience
One dog at a time
Your dog or cat will have customized care based on his/her personality and needs. I typically take only one dog at a time for daycare, with additional play dates. I love puppies, who have my undivided attention when they are with me. We have tons of fun every day and work on training as needed. I’m experienced as a sitter for smaller breeds including Yorkies, poodles, cocker spaniels, mini Aussies, pugs, Boston terriers, mini schnauzers, corgis, and Havanese; I understand the sensitive feelings of certain small dogs and of senior dogs! It will be important for me to meet you and your dog to learn about the ways you communicate and about the specific likes and dislikes that both of you have. I have experience as a foster home for abandoned dogs. I am a volunteer for Guide Dogs. I owned Labrador retrievers for 25 years. I am experienced with dogs who have separation anxiety. I’m sorry but I can no longer accept young dogs over 30 pounds I’m available for walks along the waterfront and for daycare, boarding, puppy training and play most weekdays and any weekend. I teach English online two times a week and otherwise your pet will have my full and undivided attention. There are no other pets or family members in my home. I ask for a schedule along with feeding, socialization and exercise instructions. I’m cautious about interactions with other dogs until I get to know your dog better.

Ratings and reviews
Always great with baby Luke! Thank you for the flexibility with the time and for bringing him back!
Anne was wonderful with Ollie and I felt completely at ease leaving him with her for his first stay. She was caring, organized, and her beautiful home was set up perfectly for dogs, with plenty of toys to keep him entertained. Ollie especially loved spending time out on the deck! I really appreciated the care and attention she gave him, and I’d happily book with Anne again. Highly recommend!
Jack had another great stay with Anne. I always know he’ll be loved and in good care with Anne which enables us to enjoy our vacation without having to worry about him. Highly recommend!
Anne is the best! She takes great care of our dog, is an excellent communicator and has been so accommodating and helpful. Kona loves her and we trust she is in good hands with Anne.
Anne was amazing. She sent updates and pics of Peaches throughout the day and Peaches immediately became attached to her.
Anne was amazing with our dog Kona. She took notes on Kona's routines and personality during meet and greet. Throughout the stay, Anne sent little updates that showed how perceptive and attuned she was to Kona's needs as well as her likes and dislikes. They visited some of Kona's favorite spots together and she came back happy and in good spirits. Anne has a calm way about her, and comes across as very experienced, knowledgeable, and comfortable with dogs. We appreciated the responsive and clear communication and flexibility around drop off and pickup. We will definitely book Anne again and can't recommend her enough.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I usually walk dogs along the waterfront and play fetch or games with them in my condo. There is a dog park nearby if that’s appropriate.
A typical day
Running and playing in nearby parks. Off leash only in fenced areas. Many dogs simply prefer long walks, which are a good chance to explore and meet new friends, if they’re interested. For younger puppies, I start with short walks and will introduce your dog gradually to the world of the dog park, one step at a time, if that’s appropriate for your dog. I am very careful about the type of dog your dog will be interacting with. Every experience in the neighbourhood should be a good one!
