Bubba’s PetCare

Bubba’s PetCare Specialized in-home pet sitting and dog walking service in the Madison area.

My name is Anna and I’m a professional pet sitter and dog walker in the Madison area. I’ve worked in the pet care industry for the past eight years and have held titles ranging from Kennel Assistant, Doggy Daycare Caretaker, Supervisor and Manager of a Pet Resort and Doggy Daycare. I started offering in-home pet sitting services while I was managing a pet resort and realized there was a dire need

for specialized in-home care for special needs dogs and cats. I’ve been pet sitting part-time for four years while also working part-time at boarding facilities and doggy daycares. Two years ago, I committed to my own business full time and started offering dog walking services in addition to my pet sitting services.

“Ideally play is joyful and childlike, a physically and psychologically healthy exercise for both people and dogs. Psychologists and spiritual counselors advise us all to put more childlike play into our lives. I think it’s great advice: play is good for our spirits, our bodies, and our minds. It teaches us, both dogs and humans, to coordinate our efforts with others, to learn to inhibit ourselves even when excited, and to share the ball even when we want it for ourselves.“
-Patricia B. McConnell

I had the opportunity to hear Patricia McConnell speak over the weekend!
She was so dreamy 🥰 and I needed the reminder to stop and enjoy my friends. ❤️

I stopped calling dogs “stubborn” when I started working with goats.

I’ve used terms like “high energy” or “driven” or “hyperactive” before but now I know Otis. 🙃

I’ve never been the type of person who could say, “I don’t have favorites. I love every dog equally!”
I have favorites… And Sunshine is one of them. 🩵

I haven’t taken on any new dog sitting clients in years but when Sunshine’s humans reached out looking for a last minute sitter, I knew I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

I met Sunshine when I was still working at a doggy daycare and we clicked immediately. It didn’t take her very long to establish herself as one of the most dynamic and socially intelligent leaders I’ve worked with.
Her presence was impossible to ignore but she wasn’t overbearing. She was stable but also goofy. She could be gently teaching a puppy how to play appropriately one moment and opening a can of whoop ass on her close friends the next.

I learned a lot from her by watching the way she moved within a pack and I was so excited to get to know her as an individual. 🥰

We spent the week playing hide and seek, exploring in the woods and snuggling up to some trash TV.
It was sublime 🩵

I’ve passed this small memorial in the woods for years and I’ve tried my best to make sure my friends are respectful.

Dougl is very p**p shy and rarely p**ps on our walks. Last week, however, he decided to p**p directly on the memorial 🤦

To the dogs that this spot is honoring, I apologize on Dougl’s behalf.
He seems to have no regrets though… 😈

Easily the most awkward pair I’ve had the pleasure of matchmaking 🩵

Enzo and Bailey met about a year ago and still haven’t quite met their stride as friends. I can’t spot any tension between them but they haven’t engaged in play a single time.
They’re both playful dogs and have other friends who they play with but it hasn’t happened between them yet.

When Bailey sends Enzo an invite to play, he’s starring into the distance at a possible threat.
When Enzo sends Bailey an invite, she misses the cue completely or she’s busy sniffing.

We went to a private dog park today and I was hoping this would open them up more.
…nope 🙃
Bailey sniffed every square inch of the park and mostly ignored my recall requests.
Enzo cautiously explored in between starring into the field surrounding the park.

At one point, they both played with me at the same time and bumped into each other. They paused for a moment, looked at me and then ran away in opposite directions.

Enzo is very suspicious of all new activities and I think he will get more comfortable at the park each time we visit.

Bailey and I haven’t had any other opportunities to practice our off leash recall prior to our outing today so we have room to grow.

We’re going to keep trying! 🩵 I like this version of their friendship but I hope they can connect with play someday.
