About: I’ve cared for and owned dogs since I was 6 years old. At a young age my parents put me in charge of all pet responsibilities like clean ups, feedings, and grooming. I’ve pet sat for many family members before and my friends like to say I have a way with animals. Dogs have a very special place in my heart. I’m currently a college student and working part time. I do have open mornings most days of the week and what better way to fill that than caring for pets! I have a gated yard and grass for your pets to run and play in. I’m very attentive to what a pet needs and understand what they are asking for.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats since I was 10 years old. I was taught that the animals eat first because they can’t speak. I enjoy spending time with animals.

I love some dog walking exercise. I also really enjoy spending time in a backyard as long as it’s fenced in and secure.

About: Enthusiast of animals and have worked alongside them for years in volunteering and fostering. I even have my own pets so I understand the importance of training puppies and kittens and understand how important our babies can be to us. I work alongside the schedule that you guys give me! I find it easy to put time in my day to take care of your babies. My dog is young and has a bunch of energy, where else my cats are the opposite. So I understand being able to give them a health balance of time outside and time playing as well as nap time and time where they can chose to rest.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and started walking them when I was 10. Three years ago, I adopted my own cat, and I currently dog-sit my aunt’s dog regularly.

I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

About: I’m a true dog lover and treat every dog like part of my family. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I currently have Olive, my 4-year-old Boston Terrier, and Chewy, my 14-year-old Shih Tzu, so I understand both energetic playtime and gentle senior care.

Your dog will stay in a loving home with a secure backyard for supervised outdoor time and play. I have two dogs of my own, Olive, my energetic and playful Boston Terrier, and Chewy, a sweet senior Shih Tzu. Because Olive loves to play and has a high-energy personality, I prefer meet-and-greets beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable and a good fit.

“Anna did an amazing job with our senior dog. She sent daily pictures and updates and It was so nice not to have to worry about anything while we were away. Thanks so much, Anna! I will be in touch for when we go out of town next. Thanks for the sweet plant and card as well. You are the best!”
About: I’ve spent nearly my whole life around animals, and I genuinely can’t imagine it any other way. Almost 30 years working with horses — training, rehabbing, and caring for them — taught me patience, how to read an animal’s body language, and how to stay calm when they’re not. That instinct carries straight over to dogs, cats, and just about anyone with fur. When your pet is with me, they’re not an obligation on a checklist. They’re company. I’ll keep their routine steady, give them the attention and exercise they need, and send you updates so you’re never wondering how they’re doing. Whether it’s an anxious rescue who needs a gentle hand or a high-energy goofball who needs a real walk, I’ve got them. Acton/Santa Clarita area. Reach out and tell me about your crew — I’d love to meet them. I work from home, so pets aren’t squeezed into the margins of my day — they’re part of it. My schedule is flexible, which means I can match your pet’s routine instead of forcing them into mine: morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, all of it stays consistent with what they’re used to. Between my own animals and my work with horses, caring for animals is already woven into every day. Adding your pet to that rhythm isn’t a stretch — it’s just one more member of the crew. I’m around throughout the day to keep an eye on things, so your pet gets steady attention rather than a quick drop-in and gone. In your home, my first priority is keeping your pet’s world exactly as they know it — same feeding spots, same walk routes, same routine. I don’t rearrange things or cut corners. I make sure doors, gates, and yards are secure before anything else, because a lot of trouble starts with a gate that didn’t latch. I keep your keys and access details private and treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine. With animals themselves, decades of reading horses taught me to watch body language closely — I can tell when a pet is anxious, overstimulated, or not feeling right, and I adjust instead of pushing. New environments and unfamiliar dogs get introduced slowly and on the pet’s terms. I keep an eye on hazards most people miss: food left out, toxic plants, an open trash can, a fence gap. You’ll hear from me with updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and settled. If something seems off health-wise, I’ll reach out right away rather than wait — and I’ll always have your vet’s info on hand just in case.
