Safety, trust & environment

I live in Saffron Walden and have a long garden in the countryside, with plenty of nearby fields, which I love to walk in. I ensure safety of pets by: • using secure leads • walking in safe areas • communicating with owners regularly • learning the commands your dog responds to • understanding your dog’s temperament • if there are any issues (I.e. not good around other dogs, people etc) • understanding what your dog enjoys (swimming in a lake) and finally, by building a great relationship with the pets and owners.

Information Annie G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs, behaviours or medication which I should be aware of, and can account for.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs and cats physically and mentally. If your pet is playful, I can play lots of games with them and take them on fun walks in the countryside. I also enjoy cuddles and rubbing tummies. I am a huge animal lover and really enjoy their company.

Experienced Sitter and Full-time Animal Lover 🐱🐶

Pet care experience

Welcome to my Rover profile 🐶🐾 If you're looking for a reliable, experienced pet sitter who genuinely loves animals, I’d be delighted to help take care of your pets and home while you're away. Below is more information on my experience. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. With 25 years' experience caring for animals, including 4 years' volunteering in a rescue shelter, I've developed a deep passion for animals of all kinds. In rescue, I had the pleasure of walking multiple dogs on each visit and caring for a variety of animals. I regularly look after the pets of my neighbours and friends which has given me the opportunity to build trusting relationships with many furry companions. I've been a house sitter for 5 years and had the privilege of working with wonderful clients through Rover. I’ve built lasting connections with pet owners who trust me to look after their homes and pets, as if they were my own. I recently lost my own dog of 15 years, who was an adorable rescue staffy called Teddy from Battersea. I have experience with most breeds and comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages and temperaments, including anxious or reactive dogs. I always recommend a meet and greet before booking, especially for dogs with specific needs or triggers, to make sure it’s a good fit and your dog feels safe and settled. Please do let me know in advance about any reactivity, routines, medical needs or behavioural quirks, the more I know, the better care I can provide. Thank you :)

Annie looked after our two springers and the house whilst we were away in Australia and things all went very smoothly, we had daily updates, pictures, little videos etc of the dogs and their adventures whilst we were away. We were very happy and most importantly the dogs both seemed to get on really well with Annie so very happy to recommend Annie to others that are looking for house and dog sitters! Thanks very much Annie!
