Pet care experience

I know it’s so cliché to say something like “I’ve always loved dogs since I was a small child,” but it’s so true, and well, I guess that makes me a cliché. I don’t know why, but dogs have always loved me from the moment we meet––I’ve joked to friends that I feel like it’s my secret superpower. I wish my real superpower was to have our beloved pets live forever. I had two amazing and adoring dogs in my life until one recently passed away from cancer this past year. My other pup and I are still heartbroken, but we would love nothing more than to have some additional company, especially the furry, four-legged kind! I’ve volunteered with the local humane society since adopting our first family dog from their organization and now that I’m a bit older, I’d love to pursue fostering. I’d love nothing more than to have a bunch of cute, happy dogs around me. I’m one of those people who derive joy and pleasure from being around animals. I also love cats, turtles, frogs, and almost all reptiles! I had frogs, geckos, and turtles growing up before I had a dog, and I’ve cared for neighborhood cats many times! I like people too, of course, but you know what I mean. I’m very easygoing and I absolutely love the outdoors! I adore all breeds and sizes. My favorite thing about dogs is how much unconditional love they are able to provide to everyone around them. I really enjoy being a pet sitter because I want to be able to give unconditional love back to our furry friends. I know a lot of pet owners love their dogs like I do, but can't always be there for them, so I hope to be the best substitute for part of or all day! You’ll know that your beloved pup is in very capable and compassionate hands

Annie took great care of my kitty while I was away for the weekend. It was short notice and she responded quickly, and was timely and reliable with her check ins. I will definitely book her again!

Annie did a great job with my doggies while I was out of town. This was my first time without them. She proved to be trustworthy. Will definitely use again.

Annie one of the most caring people I've seen when it comes to dogs! She is a tag-team with her dog Samantha and she is always attentive and pays attention to whatever she needs. I would absolutely trust her to watch my dogs and would recommend anyone else to try her out because she'll do great!

Information Annie W. would like to know about your pet

I like to be super communicative with my clients! I respond quickly and give prompt and thorough updates during all communications via texts, calls, photos and/or videos. I actually love photographing dogs, so I’d love to send you updates. For any pup under my care, their health, safety, and happiness are my utmost priority. I love going on long walks and giving awesome belly rubs! With meet and greets, I like to meet in a park before going back to the home so we can be outside and with my other dog, so introductions will be fun. Maybe our pups can play while you and I discuss any restrictions or special needs. For example, I love doling out tasty doggy treats, but I also want to be careful and respectful of your pup’s diet and general well-being. I really enjoy meeting new dogs and their human counterparts, so I look forward to our new dog-care friendship.

A typical day

I love dog parks, and my favorite spot is the small dog run in Downtown NYC. Let me know what your pup’s routine is and we’ll go all around the city. I do feel like it’s super important for our pups to get some nice off-leash time, so dog parks are a fixture of my doggy care routine. I usually have to go to class in the morning, so I’d be gone for a handful of hours Monday-Thursday. I’d let our pups out for a quick morning relief session and get their breakfasts all sorted before going to class. By early afternoon, I’ll be back to take your pup out for a long, leisurely stroll and/or run. We will play fetch or your pup can meet and play with other furry friends at the dog park of your choosing. I really hate leaving my pup cooped up in the apartment, so I like to spend a good amount of time outside. After a fun outing, we’d come back home and our pups could nap or cuddle up with me on the couch while I do my homework or watch movies together. Because I’m a serious student, I’m mostly a homebody these days, but I love to get exercise with my dog, and like to go hiking with them on the weekends. After some cuddle time, I’d take our pups out for a final bathroom session before snuggling up for bed.
