Availability
I work from home, so you can have peace of mind that your dog will be cared for all day. My working hours are from 8:30 AM to 5 PM, during which I can offer in-house boarding or doggy day care. I’m available after my working hours for dog walks and drop-in visits in Oxnard and Ventura, and can house sit within a 35-mile radius.

Safety, trust & environment
I’m at home all day for my dogs, so your dog will also receive 24/7 care and attention. Our home is located in a gated community, offering an additional layer of security and peace of mind. Inside our home, we’ve installed gates that separate the main living area from the front door and garage, providing extra security to ensure our dogs are always safe and sound. We ask that all dogs be up-to-date on vaccines and on a flea & tick preventative to ensure the safety and health of all the pets in our home, including our two dogs. To make sure everyone gets along, we’ll arrange a meet & greet before any stay. This way, we can ensure your dog is comfortable with our pets, and everyone feels at ease.

Information Annette R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any allergies, takes medications, or has any quirks I should be aware of. I want to make sure your pup gets the best possible care and feels right at home while they’re with me.
A typical day
When your dog stays with us during the week, they’ll enjoy a thoughtfully balanced routine designed to keep them happy, healthy, and engaged. We start our mornings with an early rise, breakfast, and some light play to get the day going. During my lunch break, we’ll have plenty of time for active play and running around with our dogs, making sure everyone gets the exercise they need. After work, we’ll unwind with a nice walk around the neighborhood before dinner at 6 PM. Evenings are all about fun and stimulation, with mentally enriching games and more playtime, including fetch and plenty of running to burn off any extra energy. As the day winds down, we’ll transition into a relaxing evening together. Your dog is welcome to snuggle up on the couch with us while we watch some TV, creating a cozy, home-like environment.

Your pet’s new best friend!
Pet care experience
I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 15, and I currently have two of my own, along with my mom’s dog, whom I care for on weekends. I’ve raised both my dogs and my mom’s dog from puppies, handling everything from potty training to managing resource guarding. My shelter dog presented a unique training challenge, but with patience and dedication, he’s become a wonderful companion. As the family’s go-to pet sitter, I manage pet care during vacations and offer boarding in my home. Working from home allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, ensuring your dog gets consistent supervision and affection.
Reviews

Lilah had a great time with Annette and her new friends Romulus and Arrow! While away on our trip, she gave us updates throughout the day and sent us pictures and videos of Lilah. She looked so happy and will definitely book again. We had peace of mind the entire time ❤️

We had such a wonderful experience with Annette! She took amazing care of our sweet baby Kenji over the weekend. From the start, she made us feel completely at ease with frequent updates, photos, and videos. She truly went the extra mile to make sure Kenji felt comfortable, safe, and loved while we were away. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Annette does a great job taking care of my dog Zumi. She provides regular updates and has a nice and clean place to care for her.

Thankyou Annette for being open to taking care of Benito a few days of notice! You’re amazing in taking care of him! Benito enjoys staying with you and your fur babies because they are playful, fun to be around and overall your love! You’re very communicative and appreciate the updates throughout the day!
