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.

Pet care experience

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!

Annette is truly the best dog sitter I could have asked for! ❤️From the moment I dropped my dog off, I knew she was in loving and capable hands. Annette cared for her as if she were her own, giving her so much love, attention, and affection every single day. She took my dog on so many fun excursions and made sure she stayed active, happy, and well cared for. It was clear that my dog wasn’t just being watched—she was having an amazing time. By the end of her stay, my dog had formed such a strong bond with Annette that she was genuinely sad to leave her, which says everything about the love and care she received. I couldn’t recommend Annette more highly. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, she’s the one. Thank you, Annette, for taking such incredible care of my girl—we’ll definitely be back!

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.
