"Ana was amazing with my anxious dog who's been having a rough time after we moved. She kept him busy and engaged while I was gone. 11/10 would recommend Ana for dogs with separation anxiety or going through transition."

Ana Ten, Founder

Hi! My name is Ana and I'm so glad you are here! Could you imagine life without dogs? I can't.

 

After working in the corporate world for 20 years, it became clear that there was a constant in my personal and professional life that never changed: my love for dogs and helping people. At the end of 2023, I decided to share my lifelong passion for dog care. Best decision ever!

 

I've had 12 dogs of my own, taken care of family and friends’ pets, rescued stray dogs, volunteered at veterinary clinics and stayed involved with our local humane societies for over 3 decades. These experiences have taught me that each dog is individual and may sometimes come with unique challenges. This is what inspired me to pursue my Fear Free™ Pet Sitter Certification, to help dogs feel at ease with science-based strategies that prevent fear, anxiety and stress (FAS). I am also Pet First Aid & CPR certified to enhance the quality of care offered to the families I serve, along with staying updated with continued education within the industry.

 

When I am not walking or sitting for my VPs families, you may find me enjoying a hike with my husband, son, and our dog, Rocco, stretching in a yoga class, cooking, or just catching up with friends at a local café.

​

Tell me about you. I would love to hear your story and to meet your pups soon!
