Your Dog’s New Best Friend ❤️

Hi, I’m Anne! For over 4 years I’ve been a trusted dog sitter, caring for pets of all ages and personalities. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for, which is why their comfort and well-being are always my top priorities. Because I work from home full-time, I can provide consistent companionship and attention throughout the day. From walks and playtime to cuddle breaks and calm downtime, I’ll adapt to your dog’s routine and make sure their needs are fully met. I’m also experienced with administering medications and keeping pups active with daily exercise. As a house and pet sitter, I’m very low-maintenance — I bring my own food and supplies, clean up after myself, and always leave your home and pets in even better condition than I found them. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I also love capturing fun photos and videos during my stays, so you’ll always have plenty of updates to see how your furry family member is doing.

Safety, trust & environment

Because my mom is allergic to pet hair, I’m unable to host pets in my own home. Instead, I provide care in your home (or in the home of a friend, when sitting for them) so your dog can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your instructions closely — from feeding schedules and walks to playtime routines and cuddle sessions. I make sure water bowls are always fresh, food is given on time, and your pet gets plenty of attention and exercise. I also keep your home tidy, bring in mail/packages if needed, and send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and loved.

She loves my cat like I do! And she went above and beyond when my cat made a mess!

Anne is awesome, we’ve only had our pooch for about 6 weeks and she’s a rescue so we were a little nervous to leave her so soon. However. Anne, came into our home and gently eased her way into our Maggie’s life, and very shortly Maggie was going on walks and loving being snuggled by Anne. She kept us updated frequently thru text and sent many photos Our home was just as we left it. And Maggie looked good and was happy I would highly recommend and will use her in the future

Anne watched my special needs senior dogs (2). Anne sent updates w/ photos to let me know how things were going. Her before, during, and after communications were perfect for reassuring me that my precious dogs were going to be in good hands. I will definitely ask for Anne to care for my dogs in the future!

Schedule

Because I work from home full-time, I’m able to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. Your dog will enjoy regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of snuggles — never left alone for long stretches. The only times I step out are for quick errands, the gym, picking up takeout, or occasionally taking my mom to a doctor’s appointment if it happens to coincide with the sitting dates. Otherwise, I’ll be home with your pet the vast majority of the time. I’m also available during evenings and weekends, which allows me to maintain your pet’s routine even if you’re away for several days. Whether it’s weekday care, a weekend trip, or just extra love and attention, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well cared for.

I always want to make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for just the way you do. Before sitting, it helps me to know: • Daily routines – feeding schedule, walk times, and bedtime habits • Health needs – medications, allergies, or any mobility issues • Behavioral quirks – how they react to strangers, other dogs, or loud noises • Comforts & preferences – favorite toys, sleeping spots, or calming routines • House rules – whether they’re allowed on furniture, crate trained, or need specific boundaries The more I know about your pet’s routine and personality, the easier it is to keep them happy and stress-free while you’re away.
