About Donna P.:

I am well experienced in the animal industry; I have been pet sitting for ten years, dog walking for 6, and spent the last few years working for a vet clinic and animal boarding facility. I am somewhat new to the East Bay area and I am very much looking forward to growing my clientele here in Oakland and its surrounding cities!

I am here to provide superior service at an affordable rate. When I dog or cat sit, every day the owners are away, I email or text a picture to ensure you that your pet is having a blast and in great hands.

My rates are $30/night, and if you need 4 or more consecutive nights it's discounted to $25/night.

Most of my business consists of midday walks for the folks with pets at home while they work. I offer an array of daytime activities between $12-30. From 30 min solo walks to 2 hour hiking adventures. Please contact me for more info about day walks.

Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your pup!

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

I have been a dog lover since before I can remember. I grew up with a daschund, yellow lab, golden retriever, and a couple boston terriers. I have always lived in a home with a dog, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Dogs add wonderful pleasure to my days!

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

I would like to know of any behavioral issues the dog may have, from aggression to separation anxiety. It's also great to know if the dog is friendly with other dogs because there are so many wonderful dog parks in the East Bay! I have no breed preferences, big or small I seriously love them all.

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

I have a reliable car that is capable of transporting up to a few small dogs or two large dogs.

Are you comfortable administering medication?

I am very comfortable and familiar with administering medications of any kind. I had a lot of experience doing this at the vet clinic and boarding facilities.

Are you willing to do additional tasks at my home while I'm away
(e.g., water plants, bring in the mail)?

I am happy to water plants, bring in mail/packages or any other things you may need while out of town.

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

Each day will consist of two at least 30 min walks unless otherwise specified by owner. Also I will spend time playing with the pet(s) at home. Your dog(s) would never be left alone more the a couple hours.

Donna P is the first person I call when I need a dog sitter. She is experienced, competent, and she's the biggest dog-lover I know. I do some dog sitting myself, so I know that each dog has a unique situation and each owner has their own set of expectations; Donna P can handle these all with grace, enthusiasm, and joy. I've seen her deal with difficult animals successfully and compassionately. She adores them all! Donna P is also a people-pleaser. She is honest, kind, and very funny. (Collapse)

When Paige resided in Monterey, she was the only one that I trusted my dog Roxie with when I needed a pet sitter, whether it was an overnight playdate or just taking her out and about when I couldn't check in throughout the day. My lovable dog Roxie is a pit bull/lab mix full of energy, just waiting to run around and play. Paige did an amazing job keeping up with Roxie, taking her on walks to the beach, playing catch, and going on hikes/walks around town... but that's not all! While Paige would watch Roxie she managed to show me different methods of easily calming Roxie down, since she becomes easily excitable, and even some new tricks! I have nothing but positive feedback for Paige, she has an incredible passion for dogs, is a natural at what she does... and I haven't met a dog that doesn't love her! The only bad thing... she moved away from Monterey and I had to find a new dog walker, I have yet to find a comparable one.. close.. but not quite! (Collapse)
