I do not have any classes this summer wooohooo! As a graduate student, I don’t work the typical 9-5 and can make be very flexible with my weekday hours. I also work mostly remote in my current lab! I have free time in the middle of the day while others might be stuck at work. Happy to work with individual clients based on their needs.

Safety, trust & environment

My credibility and home has been vetted by a local, foster-based group called Purrgatory cat Rescue. I treat my foster kitties with love and care helping them flourish in an inside environment which they have never had to opportunity to know. My unique experience with animals helps me adapt to each individual pet I care for alongside the owner’s knowledge and understanding of their baby. I have all the materials for a kitty at home and a safe neighborhood for walking dogs.

Information Anna D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any medications your pet might need, I am no stranger to this! How many walks and at what times of day is also super helpful for me to build my schedule.

A typical day

Aa a behavioral neuroscience researcher by training, I am very in-tune to what animals need :) I recently learned that sniffing on walks does much more to stimulate and enrich a dog’s mind than a longer walk with no sniffing. I have the time and the energy to go on long, sniff-ful walks but also am always looking for ways to get them running, jumping and playing of course!

Cat care experience

In my recent years, I have lived with several cats and grew to love having them around! After moving to Columbus, I began fostering cats and learned all about the unique needs and lifestyles of kitties. I am a vetted volunteer foster with Purrgatory Cat Rescue and would love to extend my care for some extra income. I am a neuroscience graduate student with a flexible schedule (not your typical 9-5)

I’ve known Anna for six years as a college classmate and close friend, and I can confidently say she would provide safe, loving care and excellent customer service. I’ve been around her with pets many times, in her own home previously, as she's fostered animals, and while she was dog sitting, and she is always attentive, patient, and genuinely affectionate. She’s incredibly responsible and intentional about meeting every animal’s needs, creating a calm and secure environment. Anna is a thoughtful, dependable person who truly values the bond between pets and their families. I would trust her completely with my own pets and highly recommend her as a loving and reliable caregiver.

Anna took great care of Monty. He is a high-energy dog and she made sure he got plenty of exercise and enrichment while she watched him. She gave him lots of love, and he came back very happy to have stayed with her. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
