Licensed Vet Tech, animal advocate
Pet care experience
I was born and raised with dogs, and animals continue to be a huge part of my life. I have an associates degree in veterinary technology, and am a licensed veterinary technician. I have fostered senior and special needs dogs, volunteered with shelters and rescues, and spent years working in a busy shelter/clinic in NYC. I also have a great love and respect for birds, having fostered many pigeons and doves through my former job at a wildlife center. I have extensive experience with feeding, caring for and medicating several species of animals, but my original and enduring love of dogs and cats is at the heart of what keeps me working in this field. I believe that each animal is an individual who is deserving of love, respect and consideration, and improving the lives of all creatures is my mission!
Reviews
Annie was great with Charlie. We had to arrange day care with short notice and she was flexible and understanding. Super appreciative she was able to care for Charlie for the day.
Annie is helpful and patient with complicated dogs!! She’s easy to work with too!
Annie was so helpful and extremely responsive! It was great to have her cat sit for us.
You’re the best!

Safety, trust & environment
I currently have one pet of my own - a dove. He lives part time in his cage and part time free-range, so any dogs I take in for boarding would have to do a meet and greet to make sure everyone will be able to peacefully coexist!
Home
Information Annie G. would like to know about your pet
I'm quite accustomed to working with quirky dogs, and I know and expect that each dog may have his or her own preferences and behavioral tics. Please feel free to let me know any little preferences or aversions your pet may have, and I'll be happy to accommodate! I know from fostering and working in a shelter environment that each animal has their own personality and comfort level.
A typical day
I like to approach each pet as an individual. I live near the ocean and there are tons of walking trails nearby. I often like to visit Willard Beach during dog friendly hours. I love to walk and be active, and look forward to taking your dog along for adventures!
