Safety, trust & environment

In my own home I have a fence, baby gates for any areas they can’t go (usually agreed upon after meet&greet) and love to give out treats if there are no medical issues that change diet! I prefer drop ins and sitting and love to adapt to your dogs schedule and playtime :) if they get their walkies daily we can do that, or playtime if you’ve got a sweet fenced in situation! Upon meeting up with people I love getting a feel for their dogs level of need & what they love about their home so I can keep that up for you while you need it.

Information Annie D. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences but would definitely love a description of your furry friend! Mainly how they interact with people they don't know, if they have experience being walked and what triggers they have to be aware of. High energy, low energy, nervous and specifically peeved by mailmen or squirrels? Lemme know!

A typical day

I am a nature lover and love taking even myself on walks - I'll be getting exercise and appreciating nature with a pup. I love to play and connect with the inner child to engage dogs I care for well enough that they use stamina and are appreciative of water n snackies when they get home :-) Fetch, frisbee, squeaky friends, sometimes dogs even join in when I do yoga to get their good stretch~ and I am always down with a dog who needs a snuggle to be comfy, but also have experience with some pups that have nerves and need just a bit of patience to come out of their shell!

Annie D, <250 dogs walked

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Annie, I am a 27 year old living in connecticut and have extensive dog care experience. Through the Wag! app I walked over 250 dogs and had an average rating of 5 stars and many repeat clients - I started this during college when I was living in New Haven and continued through moving up to Hartford afterwards! I would like to extend my services, experience, and love for pups through this website/app with a better platform and communication abilities to provide excellent dog care that goes above and beyond your expectations! I can do walks and have a very flexible schedule, usually working for short shifts on the weekends. I've dealt with distracted puppies, laxidaisical seniors, and the slobbery, talkative, or chewy in between. Please contact me with any questions :-)

Annie took incredible care of my two dogs and my house while I was away on vacation and I could not ask for a better sitter! My dogs are both seniors on daily medication, anxious barkers, and attached to me at the hip on their daily routine… but I think they were a little disappointed when I came home and it wasn’t Annie walking through the door! I received updates and pictures while I was away which helped me relax and know everything was going well while I was gone. I truly cannot recommend her enough and will definitely rebook!

Annie took great care of our pup! She was very accessible and sent regular updates throughout the weekend. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog. Would definitely hire Annie again!

She is the best. Otis loves her. She stayed here and you would never know. Neat as a pin. Dog happy and appropriately exhausted. Thanks Annie!
