Pet care experience

Dog lover with lots of experience!

Hi! Like many others, I grew up with multiple dogs my whole life, but my more recent experience is what sets me apart. I fostered & trained service dogs in college as a member of ISU’s Service Dog Training Organization. Since college, I have taken to training my own dogs as a hobby. Both of my golden retrievers are Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certified. We have also done additional training in scent work. I also have experience with dogs with disabilities and medical issues. One of my previous golden retrievers had Megaesophagus and I had to train him to eat in custom chair, on top of managing his multiple medications on a daily basis. This experience, combined with my nursing background, ensures that any pup with medical needs will be taken care of appropriately. I love every dog like they are my own. Open to all breeds and sizes!

Safety, trust & environment

Due to the small size of my house and my own 2 large dogs, I am unable to watch dogs in my own home. But I am more than happy to watch your dogs in your home for either a quick visit, a walk, overnight trip or vacation!

Annie has watched our dog numerous times and were extremely happy with her care and treatment of Tucker. I could not recommend anyone more highly than her!

Annie took such wonderful care of our boys including walks, managing their special diet, and sending the sweetest update with photos. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were so well cared for. She handled everything beautifully, even cleaned up the yard, and our boys were happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her. We’ll absolutely book with Annie again!

Annie is great to work with. She communicates clearly and with detail, she provides nice photos of her playing with our dogs, and she seems to love the animals and the work of caring for them. We look forward to working with her again soon!

Please let me know if your dog has any allergies, is on any medications, or has any specific fears I should be aware of! It would also be helpful to know any command words they know so I can communicate with them effectively.
