Pet care experience
Small Groups, Big Adventures 🌲🐾
Hi, I’m Annie 🐾🌲 I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mum to Winnie, my intelligent and loving Shihpoo. I provide small, home-from-home dog care with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time, so every dog gets genuine attention, patience and care. While I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for dogs. I am licensed by Charnwood Council with a Higher Standards license, and am fully insured too. I’ve looked after dogs before and have experience with a special needs dog who had severe anxiety, separation issues and ongoing medical needs. This taught me the importance of understanding each dog as an individual, keeping routines consistent and creating a calm environment where dogs feel safe. I work from home, meaning your pup will have company, attention and care throughout the day. We have a secure fenced garden and live close to beautiful fields, perfect for relaxed walks and plenty of sniffing adventures 🌿 Winnie loves meeting new friends, but I always put each dog’s personality and comfort first. Whether your dog loves exploring, relaxing or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else. My aim is simple: to give every dog the same love, patience and care I would want for Winnie. 🛡️ Higher Standards Licensed 🏡 Home-from-home care 🐾 Maximum 3 guest dogs 🌲 Calm, personal care

Ratings and reviews
Annie was brilliant with our little dog! Great communication throughout, and we came home to a very happy and relaxed pup. It was lovely knowing she was in such good hands. Would definitely recommend Annie and happily book with her again!
Annie is an experienced dog owner who knows what your pooch needs! An empathic, clean and tidy person I trust Annie implicitly with my pets. I have a nervous dog and a cat with additional dietary needs that Annie handles extremely well. Great communication and I would absolutely recommend!
Anna is absolutely brilliant with animals. she loves them all - even down to the fact that she has three hedgehog houses in her garden and 'pet' hedgehogs Barry and Ruby whom she has nurtured and fed for the last two years. She has her own dog Winnie who couldn't be better cared for - she is meticulous in looking after her, regular walking, attention to her diet, training and exercise. Anna has regularly looked after our dogs when we have been on holiday and they are really happy to go to her as she is really kind to them without letting them take advantage. All three dogs love her and happily settle down in her care which means that we can go away without worrying about any of their needs and well being. She is a firstclass ' dog person' !!!
Anna is the most caring person! The way she loves animals is truly beautiful. I have always had the best experience with her. I knew my dog was in great hands the moment I saw her with Anna. Thank you, couldn’t recommend highly enough 💕

Schedule
I work from home, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. My day revolves around making sure pups feel happy, comfortable, and loved. We start the morning with a lovely walk first thing, giving them time to explore, stretch their legs, and enjoy a good sniffari. After we come home, it’s breakfast time followed by cuddles, relaxation, and plenty of companionship while I work from home. Throughout the day, I’m around for attention, reassurance, and little breaks when needed. In the evening, we enjoy dinner and a gentle stroll to stretch our paws before settling down for cosy bedtime snuggles. I love creating a calm, home-from-home environment where dogs can feel safe, relaxed, and part of the family.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, safe, and loving home-from-home environment for every pup in my care. I live in a lovely quiet area with a secure fenced garden, giving dogs space to relax, play, and enjoy some fresh air safely. We are surrounded by great walking spots, including fields perfect for exploring and enjoying a good sniffari. I always take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel comfortable and settled. Winnie is a friendly, sociable Shihpoo who loves meeting other pups, and we do have some friendly pup pals who may say hello along the way. However, I always prioritise each dog’s comfort and make sure introductions are calm and appropriate. My aim is to make every dog feel like part of the family while they’re with us — safe, happy, and very well cared for.

A typical day
A typical day with me is all about making sure pups feel happy, relaxed, and loved. We start the morning with a walk in the fresh air, exploring the local fields and enjoying a proper sniffari adventure. Once we’re home, it’s breakfast time followed by cuddles, playtime, and a chance to relax while I work from home. Throughout the day, there will be lots of companionship, attention, and little moments of fun — whether that’s gentle play, enrichment activities, exploring the garden, or simply having a cosy nap nearby. In the evening, we enjoy dinner and another walk to stretch our paws and unwind before settling in for some bedtime snuggles. Every dog is different, so I tailor activities to their personality, energy levels, and comfort. Whether they love adventures, games, cuddles, or just having someone close by, I’ll make sure they feel safe, included, and part of the family.

- The more I know about your pup beforehand, the better I can make them feel comfortable and at home. Please let me know about their usual routine, personality, likes and dislikes, energy levels, feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any quirks that make them unique. It’s also important for me to know about any medical needs, anxiety, separation concerns, allergies, medications, or anything that helps them feel safe and settled. I understand that every dog is different, and my goal is to provide care that feels familiar, calm, and tailored to their individual needs.... just like I would want for Winnie.
