Loving and experienced pet sitter

Pet care experience

In college I worked at a doggie daycare and boarding facility, as well as dog sitting through Rover. This gave me experience working with young puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs. I have also pet sit for many neighbors and family friends for many years, and have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I went to Drake University and majored in biological conservation, and took several classes regarding animal care, behavior, and health.

Annika was fabulous--responsive, loving and responsible. She immediately took to Charlie, and we felt 100% comfortable leaving him with her. We received photos and updates, and we never had to worry about him while we were gone. She was very comfortable administering the medications Charlie requires for his Addison's disease, and she was familiar with his disease before she arrived. Annika took great care of the house, and everything was tidy and clean when we returned home. We would absolutely LOVE to have her come back and stay with Charlie again.

Annika did a wonderful job house sitting with our 3 dogs while we were out of town for a wedding. She was very responsible, even coming to our house for a meet and greet before the weekend. She sent us periodic pictures and updates while we were gone. The dogs seemed to take to her right away and all three were calm and relaxed when we got home showing us that they had had a good time with her. The house was as clean as we left it. We would definitely book with Annika again when the need arises!
