Availability
I work remotely at home so it would be great to have a furry companion. I live in a pet friendly building next to a dog park so I’m happy to either stay at home or go play at the park. Please try to ask me for availability at least one to two weeks before the actual date.

About Katie "Anni" W.

Safety, trust & environment
Feel free to ask for special accommodations if necessary, ie medications, special diets, etc. Please note that I am currently in a high rise building and would require dogs to do well in the unit (ie no pooping indoors, loud barking, etc). If your dog has separation anxiety, please let me know. If your dog cannot do well on their own if I leave for a few hours, let me know as well. Any noise disturbance in my building will be subject to a fine, so unfortunately if your dog is too loud then I wouldn’t be able to accommodate at this time.

Information Katie "Anni" W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know ahead of time which vet they usually go to in case of emergencies. Otherwise then let me know what their general routine is and if they have any special diets or medical considerations. If you are looking for a long term boarding or long term daycare, I’m happy to negotiate a flexible rate that works for you aside from the prices listed.
A typical day
I mostly adapt to the pet’s schedule and behavior. Cats are generally low maintenance so I let them do their thing. For dogs, I would usually take them out 3/4 times a day and maybe go on a long walk if they need the exercise. This totally depends on each pet though so just let me know ahead of time what to expect.

Pet care experience
I have grown up with animals ever since I was a child. I grew up in a family with chickens, rabbits, dogs and cats as pets. I also have an animal care training background as part of my training for my graduate science degree. I receive requests for taking care of both dogs and cats of all different ages and needs. Please message me if you are looking for something specific. Depending on my projects at work, I either work from home or partly take meetings for a few hours outside of the house. If your pet were to come over, I will make time to stay home and take care of them, please message me ahead of time so we can coordinate. My apartment is very safe, in a high rise. I have been petsitting for years now and nothing bad has ever happened to any of them.

Bear always loves his stay with Anni. She always taken the best care of him ❤️
Anni was a great sitter - super communicative, caring, and clearly loves pets! Would highly recommend.
Katie was in constant communication with me about my dog’s situation and very accommodating. Which I really appreciated.
Jaz comes home tired and happy. Anni is flexible and easygoing!
