Annie
From a young age, my love for animals has been a constant in my life. I founded The Prefurred Pet Nanny to ensure that, as a fellow dog mom, my beloved pup—and the pups of others—can thrive in a safe and caring environment. I believe that people and their furry friends are woven into one beautiful journey together.
With extensive experience running businesses for both large and small companies, I have channeled my expertise into The Prefurred Pet Nanny. This venture represents the perfect blend of my corporate knowledge and my passion for social work. My mission is to provide you with peace of mind when you are away, and that’s why I stand by my motto: "Where pets are treated like family." I care for my furry clients with the same unconditional love I have for my own dog.
On top of that, I’ve completed a fun and informative ten-week dog training course and even earned a certificate in animal first aid. These experiences have only deepened my dedication to keeping your pets happy and healthy. I can’t wait to hear all about your journey with your fur babies!
Livvy
Hi, I’m Livvy! I’ve been an avid animal lover my entire life, and I’m passionate about providing exceptional care for pets of all kinds whether they have fur, feathers, or scales. My experience caring for animals is deeply personal, and my own journey with breast cancer has given me a profound understanding of how much comfort and companionship pets provide during difficult times. This has fueled my commitment to treating every animal with the kindness, respect, and security they deserve.
I am a seasoned animal trainer with over 10 years of experience as a horse trainer and 5 years as a dog trainer. I’ve taken several courses through Karen Pryor Academy and Do More With Your Dog, and I’m a certified trick dog trainer. This background allows me to connect with each animal on a personal level and make sure their needs are met to the same standards as their owners.
When I’m not pet sitting, I’m most likely hiking with my chihuahuas and Australian cattle dog, going to concerts, or knitting my chihuahuas their latest sweater. I’m a firm believer in making sure your pets feel secure and happy while you’re away.
Emma
Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember—some of my earliest family photos are of me napping with our family dog, Gus, or playing on the floor with our cats. I’ve always loved that animals are exactly themselves and truly our best friends. After earning my degree in Early Childhood Education and working in teaching, I eventually followed my heart back to my first love: animal care. A few health challenges in my late 20s inspired me to make big life changes, and I transitioned into pet care full time.
From starting as an in-home pet care provider to becoming a Master Trainer at Zoom Room in Plymouth, I’ve gained invaluable experience helping pets and their owners thrive. I’m passionate about creating strong bonds, offering reliable support, and making sure every animal in my care feels safe, happy, and understood.
When I’m not working with dogs, you’ll likely find me hiking with my pup, Carmela, paddleboarding, painting, drawing, reading, or expanding my knowledge of animal behavior and therapy dog training. I treat every pet like my own, so you can have complete peace of mind when they’re with me.
