Pet care experience
Welcome 👋 Need high quality, reliable and experienced pet care? You’ve come to the right place! 🥳 Finding a sitter should be a stress free process- I aim to fulfill any needs you may need! Please take your time looking through my profile to learn more and if you’re visiting at a hotel 🏨 or own a cat 🐈 , scroll further down! How I got started 🐕🦺🐕🦮: Dogs have been a huge part of my life- I’ve had three dogs in my life and really love spending time with them. Over time I found myself seeking out opportunities to spend more time with them which is how I eventually started dog sitting. I work well with dogs of all kind- from small but fierce to the large and cuddly. Fun fact the most dogs I’ve ever sat were 6, all with different meds and dietary needs. I’m very detail oriented, if not organized, to the max. 😤 What I can do🐾🦮🫧🏡🏃🏻♀️ I’ve house and dog sat ever since elementary school! My skill set and service includes but is not limited to walking, playtime, making sure medication is taken (oral, topical, injected), and heavy exercise for high energy pups. I’ve taken care of small to large dogs, some even with special needs! I also have a lot of experience with senior dogs and provide specialized care. My goal is to make sure your furbaby is taken care and to make your life easier :) What to expect 🏆🤔 I’m very organized and focus on making sure you can feel comfortable leaving your pup in my hands. I always will send photo updates (at least 5 photos a session) and will reach out whenever I have questions! I also strive to provide informative and sometimes entertaining Rover cards. My motto especially for house sitting, is to make you come home to a clean, relaxed space 😌If you have any requests don’t hesitate to ask! If I notice something or have suggestions related to their breed or habits I’ll communicate it as well. I aim to make your pup happy, healthy, and your life easier! Additional Skillset 💉🏆 My skillset includes administering shots (insulin and IV drips) to dogs. I am proficient in: first aid for pets 🩹⛑️, knowledge on pet behavior, and problem solving (Ex: I can help the most pickiest pets eat their meals without any brute force 😤). I also dabble in pet photography 📸 and strive to send you some quality photos- granted I can catch those moments 🥰 Small critters 🦜🐹🐟 If you also have small critters, you’re in luck! I’ve had over 13 finches, and 4 parakeets throughout my life so far. Prices for pets will vary but typically it will range below my cat prices 🫡 If you have under two additional critters, they are free of charge with your base booking! Got a cat? 🐈 Although my expertise is primarily with dogs, I’ve watched several cats and am able to provide the same quality care! From the shy to the cuddly, I dedicate time to make sure they have a purrfect time as well. Beyond feeding and cleaning, I love spending time cuddling and petting your dear cats (should they grace me with this pleasure). You can also expect me to help maintain any litter and hygienic needs for them! Staying at a Hotel? 🧳 Not a problem! I’m more than happy to keep your pup company while you’re away on a visit. From drop ins to staying for the full day I can accommodate your needs. I’ve daysat plenty of pups at hotels, and know how to navigate hotel sitting well :) I keep them entertained and also make sure that no disturbances come to the hotel. Please make sure that parking accommodations are included!
Reviews
Annie was great! She left very thorough check in reports and sent a lot of pictures. She also made sure my apartment was clean and even unloaded the dishwasher! She went above and beyond. She is a wonderful pet sitter and is dedicated to her job. My cat was happy as well. Thank you Annie!
annie was the best cat sitter we’ve had for our sweet june!! she stayed at our apt for a week and went above and beyond taking care of june. we met annie before we left and she was so kind, you can tell she loves pets and is passionate about her job. she sent daily updates, playing with june, loving her, taking the best photos we’ve EVER seen, giving her treats, and making sure she was happy. and has incredible attention to detail as well - adding water to junes food to help her eat better! we felt so comforted knowing june was in the best hands. she left our apartment clean and tidy as well, getting the mail and bringing packages in. we are so glad we found annie and highly recommend her! we will be booking her again. thank you so much annie!!
Annie was amazing. She had such a positive and calming way with our Rocco. She had great knowledge of needs of elderly dogs.
Annie was an awesome puppy sitter! She stayed at our home overnight as well as during the day. Staying over meant getting up for 4:30 potty breaks. She sent frequent text messages and lots of pictures. She played tirelessly and even gave her a bath. Our 4-month-old puppy, also an Annie, loved her!! We will definitely use Annie again as the need arises.

Staying Overnight 🏠 Currently I provide overnight stay and drop in services for your furry friends. Prior to any booking, I ask that we host a meet and greet so I may get a lay of the land. Alternatively, video call is always an option! During my stay, I aim to leave as little of a trace as possible- I will keep the spaces I am in tidy and only go into the common areas with your pet! My goal is to make your furry friend as comfortable as possible and will make sure they have as little stress/anxiety. Snacks and More 🦴📸 I love to make sure dogs are taken care of, whether it’s boarding or a drop in visit- I’m committed on giving you peace of mind and your furry friend a good time. I try to send a minimum of 5 photos per session and with your permission to also bring some snacks and treats for the pets that meet me :)
Home
Information Annie L. would like to know about your pet
I often like to know the following: - Special diets and allergies - Triggers/Fears (if any, like fireworks) - Preferences, if any (ex: some pets are sensitive to men vs. women) - Habits (Sleeping, eating, things to keep an eye on) -Medical Care (Medication or injuries) - Pet synergy( how they typically get a long with other dogs/cats) - House rules (Ex: no jumping on counters or couches)
A typical day
Activities During a typical session, I take your doggo out for a walk or playtime for 15-30 minutes. They also usually get a mini photo shoot for your Rover card. For longer visits I try to teach them tricks or entertain them with whatever I have at my disposal. Each dog has different needs so I always pivot and adjust to their personality and needs each time. Whether they’re energetic or enjoy lounging around- I always have something to offer for your dearest pet.

Typical Workday 💻 (WFH/Hybrid) I’m currently working from home (normally a hybrid model for work, and can keep your furbaby company. Although I work a desk job, I try to make sure they get the care they need. Update: As of May 4th, I am staying California for an extended period of time and offering my services :) Please note that I do exercise frequently in the evenings for 1-2 hours, 2 times a week. Sometimes I will bring your pup with me if they are permitted. I’m quite flexible with my schedule , but typically do step away for a little bit while I’m doing house sitting. During my stay, I dedicate time in between meetings to make sure they get enrichment and engagement. My speciality? Tug-a-war and races (me, I'm the other racer) in a dog park. Weekends/Holidays 🎄🗓 Note holiday rates are higher due to volume or requests! In the event I’m booked out please don’t hesitate to reach out to see if we can work something out ☺️
