Vet Tech Student & Animal Passion
Pet care experience
I have worked in professional settings such as pet hospitals and volunteered at humane societies for almost 10 years. I have grown up taking care of mine and other families pets since I was a child on my farm and have lots of knowledge and hands on experience through studying to become a vet tech in college! I have a huge passion and love for animals and is what I am pursuing as a career.

Annie sent so many photos of my pup and my dog (also Annie) seemed to have a good time!

About Annie S.

Safety, trust & environment
As of this moment my apartment would need me to pay each month to have a pet so I can’t house your pet, however I am perfectly capable of taking you pet on a car ride or walk to anywhere in the area (a park, lake, etc) as well as I am able to spend my time at your residence and walking them around the area. I am able to feed, play with, exercise, lightly train, as well as medicate as you would like. If wanted I can also do nail trims for an extra cost! I can provide your furry friend with a loving, playful, and enriching experience!
Information Annie S. would like to know about your pet
Their attitude towards certain situations such as with other pets, people, and kids as well as any known fears to avoid. Any known allergies as well as medications or treatments currently used on the animal. It would be nice to know if there any favorite toys or treats to make our time easier together. Lastly, a quick run down of any commands your animal knows as well as any/the most typically used hand or body gestures used to indicate them to your furry friend!
A typical day
I love to stimulate their minds with games and puzzles as well as add in exercise using obstacle courses. Adding in activity through walks and playing with toys will be a constant as well as some time for some good pets and positive reinforcement through treats and encouraging words. I like to practice any tricks they may know to continue using their brain and helping them remember as well as trying to introduce anymore (with the owners approval). I enjoy taking pets to parks in order to expand their knowledge of new smells and objects as well exposure to other people and pets (with owner approval). I also enjoy taking pets to water access (with owner approval) as it can be great learning, exposure, exercise, and fun for you furry friend!! Lastly, I enjoy teaching and encouraging careful and rewarded exposure to any known fears, if you have a pet with a fear you would like them to overcome, using exposure and positive reinforcement I can help teach them to not have the fear anymore!

Availability
I am currently in college and I am finishing the actual vet tech program this year so I’m not super free, however you can always ask and I’ll try to make time! Even with this busy schedule I could take care of your friend in the mornings and right after my classes/work come back and care for them, it just depends on your preference and the week! Therefore I am only taking requests currently with those I’ve already booked with before!
