About Anita

I am a smiley and friendly girl, who adores pets. I've always had pets since I was born. I had dogs, cats, parrots, chickens and fish. I love to look after them.

I live on the seaside with my husband, in Axminster, Devon. We live in a 3 bedroom house with a nice green front and a safe, fully fenced and closed back garden. There is a small park just next to our house also some other lovely parks around my area, for 1-2 mins walking distance from our home.

My services: I do home boarding, but I am able to come to your home to feed and/or take your dog for walks several times a day, if you are away or unable/do not have time for walks.

Also if you have cats or any other pets, I'd love to look after them too, to feed them and play with them while your are away.

I have experience with a wide variety of animals and all different breeds of dogs, from tiny Chihuahuas to Great Danes.

I have experience with working breeds, rescue dogs, excitable puppies, senior dogs and those who need some extra attention.

I work from home Mo-Fri.

I have experience in giving medication to pets, also injection for diabetes.

I am happy to day care pets, also boarding is possible in my home. I always suit myself to the owner and the pet needs. I always follow the instructions provided: daily routines, meal times, walking times and length, play times, medication if the pet needs. The pets usually staying in my spacious living room, if they have a crate or bed, blanket, there is plenty of space there. I live in a nice, cosy and warm house.

I always follow the owner's instructions and their pet need as all pets are different and all diets are different.

I always adapt the walks to the pet's age and physical condition, as the owner requests.

I send multiple daily photo and text updates about their pets activitie

With my husband we schedule our jobs to make sure one of us is staying at home with the pet. I mostly work from home.

I usually look after pets from 1 owner at a time (2-3 dogs are also welcome from the same owner). I do not own any pets myself at the moment.

I used to be a junior dog groomer and dog walker at Pets in the City Ltd. in North Kensington, London from March 2015 till Dec. 2018.

I graduated at Bicton College for Level 3 Dog grooming diploma with Disctinction in 2021 July. I achieved my Level 2 in 2020 with Distinction as well.

I have Pet insurance also qualified in Animal First Aid (Heavenlys + Bicton College).

I successfully completed: COVID-19 awareness training at Skills for Health.

I look forward to meeting you and your pet soon! :)

Anita is so lovely and caring and looked after Artie our 9 year old rescue Schnoodle really well. It was the first time we had left him so we were nervous - but he settled immediately. Anita kept us up to date with lots of photos and messages which meant we could have a very relaxing holiday. He looked so well and happy when we picked him up.

Anita is a great sitter and went out of her way to look after Artie. We’d highly recommend her and will definitely use her again!

Tom, 2021-08-31

Anita and Fefe did an absolutely wonderful job of looking after our 3 month old puppy for 8 days. Naturally we were apprehensive about leaving such as young dog with someone new for so long, but we needn’t have worried - they were incredibly conscientious and thoughtful, ensuring that someone was with our puppy throughout the day (and sometimes even the night!), giving him the love and care he needs. They walked him regularly and sent us numerous pictures throughout the days documenting the whole stay (we don’t know how they did it but the shots they got of our puppy are 1000x better than anything we’ve ever managed to take!). Other dogs and people were also present at certain points during the stay (Anita asked us if this was ok before she allowed it) and this socialisation has clearly benefitted our puppy. We honestly can’t thank Anita and Fefe enough, and would certainly recommend them to anyone. If you’re ever holidaying in Devon/Cornwall in accommodation that doesn’t allow dogs then you can rest assured that Anita and Fefe will provide a home from home for your precious pup. Thank you once again, Tom and Lynds x
