Pet care experience

We’ll Keep Their Tails Wagging! About Me: With a passion for animals rooted in a lifetime of experience, I have been immersed in the world of pet care my whole life. Growing up alongside my father, a veterinarian, I learned the intricacies of caring for large and small animals. I holds a state usda license as foster home for dogs and cats, specializing in medical, behavioral, and special-needs cases. I am actively participates in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) efforts to manage community cat populations and is a Red Rover emergency responder and wildlife rescue volunteer. My expertise extends to caring for various animals, including farm animals, poultry, monkeys, dogs, cats, hedgehogs, guinea pigs, reptiles, and more, ensuring their mental, physical and emotional well-being during your absence. I am Insured/Bonded, a member of Pet Sitters International and the Pet Professional Guild, Fear-free Certified pet professional, A certified dog bite educator and currently working on my PACCC certification and completing my Canine Enrichment Technician Certification Boarding Information: As of June 1, 2023, we have relocated to a smaller home and yard, limiting our available space. We will continue to serve our existing boarding clients. We will be exclusively accepting new clients with small-breed dogs (under 35 pounds), senior dogs, and cats. We will only accommodate one family's dogs at a time to ensure a serene environment. With our boarders we want to become a home away for home for them. Offering them 24 hours cuddles, snuggles and love. We have designated rooms for cat boarding, featuring bright open windows, aquariums, bird feeders, ample comfortable space, and a TV for feline entertainment. My son is often times find doing homework or cuddling with the kitties that are staying with us. We do have a camera in the Cat Room for the owners to few their kitties. We uphold stringent hygiene standards, employing a fogging machine with Rescue disinfection between clients and observing a 48-72 hour hold period between cat clients.

Additional reviews are available on the Cordillera Ranch Neighborhood Page, Nextdoor, and my Google Business. Understanding the uniqueness of each pet is a top priority of mine. My approach is to match your pet's preferences and needs. Our drop-in and dog-walking services offer a wide range of stimulating activities. We craft personalized and suitable games and enrichment activities for your specific household this includes cats, dogs, sugar gliders and any other critter.

Performed an initial visit so dogs can become acclimated to environment and anyone in her family are very friendly. Her elderly dogs are very patient. Reserved Annie’s services for six days during new years and she did a wonderful job with updating us daily with pictures and checking in to make sure certain behaviors were normal versus anxiety. She really put an effort in making sure the dogs are comfortable.

Annie and her family took great care of my Frenchies while I was away for a week. I was a little nervous because it was the first time after 5yrs with a new sitter, but I quickly got settled when I saw how much fun they were having. They got cuddles, play time with some really neat enrichment activities and we even had a last minute meditation administration needed which she did with no problem. My dogs came home happy, healthy and so worn out that they even put themselves to bed and were snoring within the hour.

Information Annie L. would like to know about your pet

We provide all pet parents with essential paperwork during our meet and greet to ensure a seamless fit for you and your pet. This paperwork can be completed online or in person, as per your preference. It aids in personalizing your pet's visits, making them as comfortable as possible. Please share any pertinent details about your dog's background, including any known separation anxiety, reactivity, aggression, or triggers, such as aversions to cats or other dogs. Honesty about your pet's personality and quirks is crucial for personalizing their experience and ensuring both their safety and mine. Your transparency is greatly appreciated.
