Pet care experience
Annita Animal
Hello there, I’m Anne and based in Wiltshire (a little town called Ludgershall). I have been petsitting from the age of 15, at the time it used to be one of these jobs you would do to get a little money as a student. However, now it has indeed become more of a serious job and I’m actually glad it has ! This is why I’m currently working on my DWSA Certificate w/ the British College of Canine Studies which would include first aid training. I grew up in South America, I’m originally more of an exotic animal kind of person but after moving to Europe at the age of 16, I found myself loving all animals! I have worked for different charities in different countries like the Brigitte Bardot Foundation and when I was 20, I also worked against the illegal animal trade until my departure to England in 2016. During this time, I rescued most of my pets and filled my family and friends with the animals they still have today. I am now over 30 years old and have had probably all sorts of animals under my care and continue my route looking after them accompanied by my young daughter as I wish her to grow surrounded by animals like I did so she can learn the compassion and respect all beings deserve. We’re a quiet family living in the quiet country side and my husband and mum love to participate in the care of any of our protégés too, we’re even thinking of making it a family business in the future ! We own a chihuahua and a staffy as well as smaller enclosed pets, live in a 3 beds house with a fairly large garden. Unfortunately, my old chihuahua has developed some heart issues last year so we’re not taking in medium/large breeds home anymore but are still able to accommodate smaller dogs or others animals. I’m also always happy to walk/visit/petsit when people get the trust to leave me with their pets/homes. Anne

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Anne was amazing with Skinner, he has his eccentricities due to being a rescue, but Anne handled him wonderfully and kept me updated throughout. I will definitely be looking to be a repeat customer. Cannot recommend enough.
Amazing dog sitter and gave him lots of love and attention. Really put me at ease and some great photos and videos. Would recommend thoroughly.
After our booked house sitter let us down, Anne stepped in literally at the last minute. And we are so glad she did. Lots of communication and photos showed us what an amazing time the doggies were having. We could not have asked for a better person to look after Dexter and Bella. Once again Anne, thank you so much for giving them an amazing time. We recommend anyone who wants to leave their fur babies with a caring, experienced sitter who has a great love for animals then look no further than Anne. ??
Anne is very professional and came to meet us beforehand, Luna loved her and had a great time and all her needs were met and she was happy and tired when I got home. I felt confident leaving Luna with Anne as we spoke about her animal experiences etc. I will definitely be using Anne again 😊
Anne was so nice and friendly. Lilly had a lovely time and I was sent pictures to show how Lilly was. Would highly recommend to anyone.
as always anne was great with jacko he was very pleased to see her again she is a wonderful person with animals and so trustworthy .

Schedule
I am home most of the time but when I’m not my husband or mum is. I work with my chihuahua and our staffy stays at home, they both go on at least 1 hour walk a day & have always access to our garden. Everything is organised around the pets as we have always had pets. If I have to stay at someone's place to pet-sit, my husband takes over with our own pets but we do always work as a team.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home has always been safe for kids and animals as I've always had pets and one of my dog is very small. We have a large enclosed garden and a lot of green areas around the house. I do prefer going to the pets' homes when possible as this way, I know the animal is less confused with a new home and strangers.
Pets
A typical day
Depending on the pet I will try adapt as much to their daily routine. Some dogs need more exercise than others, more attention than others, etc... I love going on long walks and playing with them. The general atmosphere is quite chilled and relaxed, the dogs are free to do almost anything they want.
