Nettie the Dog Nanny

I've taken care of dogs of every kind most of my life, and I love all animals. I will be able to walk, feed, play with, bathe, your pets and even administer medication(s) if required. I will treat your pup(s) friend like a family member as if they were my own. There are lovely parks in the area and I also have a car to take them to off leash parks in the area. Over the years I have I also volunteered with various rescue organizations and I have taken care of many dogs for both family and friends. I also was a dog volunteer puppy trainer for the Puppy People. In short, I have a very loving and open home, and accept dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and ages, and don't have a dog in my home at present, (which is ideal for dogs that may require solo care). There are lots of parks in the area and paths we can walk through together, and lots of other pups in the area to play with, (if your pup is good with other dogs. Before I accept any dog, I like to arrange a meet-and-greet, so make sure we all get along, and so if you think I might be a great fit, please contact me, and let's have a chat!

Netty the Nanny was wonderful with my dog Morley. She gave him lots of loving and I couldn't have been happier. Thank you Annette!!!!

Annette is the most wonderful dog and cat nanny that you can imagine. She recently watched our two small dogs (one of them a senior with health problems/medication requirements) and cat while we were traveling for 1 week and all three of them were extremely relaxed, happy, and calm when we returned home. Annette had constantly updated us with photos and videos throughout her stay, and we always felt that everyone was extremely well taken care of. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy and loving dog/cat sitter. Shetruly cared for them as if they were her own.

Annette is an amazing Nanny. She provides excellent care towards your pet as if it was her own. She keeps you informed and provides pictures and messages througout the day. We are so glad we found a gem like Annette and won't hesitate to use her again.

Best dog sitter ever, like Mary Poppins for dogs! Annette was absolutely amazing with Maddy and Louie. She didn’t just watch them, she truly cared for them, played with them, and made them feel safe and loved. She sent regular photo updates, which made me feel so reassured while I was away. Most importantly, the dogs actually missed her when she left! I couldn't ask for a better sitter. Highly recommend!

Doggy Day Care • Nov 29, 2024

Taco had the best day with Annette! It’s always stressful when having a new sitter but Annette was great and took such good care of my baby. He is an anxious pup but she made sure he got extra attention. I received lots of updates and pics/videos throughout the day, which put my mind at ease knowing he’s in very good hands. Thank you auntie Annette, we will be back soon! ❤️

Doggy Day Care • Jun 27, 2024

I recently had the pleasure of having Annette take care of my dog, Leo, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Annette was incredibly attentive and loving towards Leo, ensuring he felt comfortable and happy while I was away. She provided regular updates, which gave me peace of mind knowing that Leo was in good hands. Thank you, Annette, for taking such great care of Leo!

Schedule

All pups in my care get my full attention, if they like to play we play. If they like to go outside we go out. I also love snuggling and encourage them to feel at home and if they are allowed on the furniture or sleep in the bed so I will be happy to do that with your pup. Your pup will get just the right amount of attention. If they are more reserved then I will certainly give them their space.
