Devoted & Experienced Vet Assistant

Pet care experience

I've worked in the veterinary clinic setting for 17+ years as a veterinary assistant, office manager and clinic purchaser. I've also worked in other kennels and at Metronic caring for animals as a side job while working at the vet clinic. I have experience with geriatric, patients with conditions that may require daily medication and post surgical patients. I can administer medication, SQ fluids and insulin. I have experience caring for many pets (cats, fish, birds, rabbits, chickens, etc) I became devoted to pet sitting to provide an alternative to the anxious kennel setting many owners are forced to use. I provide a warm and comfortable home setting where your pup can play and be loved as a member of our family. You can also be reassured your pet is getting the best care by an experienced sitter with medical knowledge. I also provide "drop in" services to check in on pets in your own home when you can't be there. Drop in's are an excellent option for cats especially since they normally don't like to be out of their "home enviroment". Many people also use the drop in service for pups that need potty breaks while their at work. My focus is to provide your furbaby with the most comfortable and loving enviroment that their used to and completely deserve. I require all dogs boarding at my house to be up to date on Rabies, Distemper and a negative fecal test within the last month. If your dog is on year round Heartgard then a fecal test within the last year is required. I also am not able to care for dogs that are aggressive with other dogs or children.

This was my first time using this service and I was really pleased with the whole experience. I needed someone to feed my cat everyday and spend some time loving him up. Daina was absolutely awesome! From the first conversation I knew she would be great with my Moby. I loved her daily updates and photos. I felt confident that he was well taken care of. I definitely recommend her!!

Rocky has stayed with Daina several times and we have been extremely happy with her services every time! I received several pictures and videos during his visit and he came home tired out and content. ?. I know Rocky receives tons of love and attention when he stays there! Thanks Daina!!!

Daina and her family took our puppy in as if he was their own, and I couldn’t have asked for a better family to take our pup in! I have no concerns when I leave my little family memeber with her and her family. I received daily pics/vids showing how much fun he had with her whole family. She will definitely be my first choice the next time I need a good quality place for my dog to stay! Couldn’t have asked for a better place for him while we were gone, A+!

Sauna was outstanding. She sent me photos of my cats and messages. She even watered my plants. My journey to New Zealand and Australia was more enjoyable knowing Daina was taking such good care of my pets. Thank you Daina

Information Daina Z. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any medical conditions or allergies. Also, if there is anything that your pup doesn't like (tummy rubs, door bells) anything that make them fearful, uncomfortable or aggressive.

A typical day

I have a large backyard that dogs love to work off their energy in! We also play Frisbee and ball throughout the day. I can also provide daily walks around our neighborhood. Let me know what your pup loves and what I can do to make their stay as close to home as possible.
