About: I have grown up with cats my whole life, I currently have two orange tabby’s named Dobby and Louise. As a teen we rescued a greyhound and took him for walks and loved to cuddle with him. During the pandemic, I started dog walking for those who were deemed essential workers around my neighborhood. I wanted to help those who were helping us during such confusing times. I work full-time, but I have a hybrid work schedule, which allows me the flexibility to have even more time with your pet! I’m great at making accommodations. I’d like to have a quick conversation with you first, to make sure I know the do’s and don’t you’ve implemented for you pet. If they are still learning commands, I want to be able to reinforce them with the proper words. I always like to carry extra poo bags with me on walks because I don’t want to leave any mess behind.
“Ann is truly a tremendous sitter. My pup, Bowie, was so tired after spending the evening there. A happy dog is a tired one!! She sent pictures and text updates which I absolutely loved. She also wrote a narrative of his day for me to keep! I highly recommend Ann and I am surely returning to her.”

If they want to sleep with us, we welcome it!

Sangeetha S.
“To say that Sangeetha is an animal lover would be an understatement. She has had cats, dogs, and guinea pigs of her own and regularly fosters both dogs and cats. She and her husband go out of their way to care for animals, even making personal sacrifices, such as taking separate vacations when needed. I have left my dogs with her many times and have always returned to find that she has cared for them just as well—if not better—than we do. You can definitely trust Sangeetha with your four-legged loved ones.”
