Safety, trust & environment

I will not be able to board your dog at my home. My apartment does not allow dogs. When I am at your home I will follow any instructions you have. I can crate, let out in the yard, go on a long walk, feed as scheduled, and give medicine as needed.

Information Annette G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is anything that can help me connect with the dog better. If they’re timid, afraid of anything specific, or allergic to something. I am happy to accommodate whatever is needed.

A typical day

I love to give dogs whatever they’re driven with most, whether it’s attention, treats, toys, or all the above. I’ll play with their favorite toy or take them on long walks on their favorite trail. I want to ensure I only do what makes the dog comfortable while also helping to stimulate.

Let me love your babies like you do

Pet care experience

I got my first dog when I was 10 years old. I was obsessed and couldn’t get enough of him. However, he would run away from me. Not appreciating the major loving and squeezing I thought showed I cared. I still have the childlike love for dogs. I want to pet and play with any I encounter. I love the happy wags, the curious snoot, and the “I’m innocent face”. As I grew up I learned having a pet not only means affection, but also discipline, understanding, and routine. I know now that just smooches and play are not enough to enrich a dogs life. I know now that puking isn’t always cause to panic but pay attention if anything changes. I know now that a dog needs to go outside not only to prevent house accidents, but for their health. Let me give your animal the attention it deserves while you are not around. Let me treat them how you would.

We had a great experience with Annette! She took the time to come beforehand and learn our guinea pigs’ routine, which we really appreciated. She was reliable, attentive, and took great care of them while we were away. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend!
