Safety, trust & environment

When your pet stays at my home, my main goal is to make them feel safe, cozy, and loved. I have created a quiet, fully supervised space designed specifically for their comfort and security. Because I am a vet tech, I have a professional eye for safety and can quickly notice if your pet needs a little extra comfort or a different approach to feel at ease. Your peace of mind is just as important to me as your pet’s happiness.

Information Dakoda S. would like to know about your pet

To keep everyone happy and healthy, I ask that all pets be current on their vaccinations and flea/tick treatments. I would love for you to tell me everything about your pet; their medical needs, favorite snacks, funny quirks, or what makes them a little nervous. Sharing your veterinarian’s contact info and any specific house rules helps me step in and provide the exact same level of care you give them every day. I really value your input, as it helps me build a great bond with your pet from the very start.

A typical day

I love matching my day to your pet's vibe! If your dog loves a good adventure, we are out for engaging walks and fun playtime. If they prefer a slower pace, we will stick to gentle games and plenty of affection. For my cat friends, I am all about interactive toys, cozy cuddle sessions, and giving them the space they need to explore or nap. I genuinely enjoy getting to know what makes each pet smile, and I make sure they get plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day.

0 stars sitter was a no show paid for service and was stood up. When I contacted the sitter she was rude.

Dakoda was great with my dog Maggie! She took care of her when I had an especially long workday. Dakoda took Maggie out for a long walk during the day, and I loved all the pictures she sent me of her having a great time during the day. I'd definitely recommend her to look after your pets!

Dakoda has been a great caregiver, Dog, and animal lover ever since she was a small child. She researches diet, and care for not only her pets but everyone else she comes in contact with. She is tuned into there needs and loves there company, She not only worries about there diet but she makes sure they are well-groomed, cuts their nails when needed and makes sure they get ample exercise, each day, but most of all she gives them lots of love and discipline. When needed. She is most trustworthy with all animals in her care.
