Pet care experience

I've dog-sit since I was little ♡

I've been caring for dogs since I was little. I used to own a husky-wolf dog mix, so I know how to handle energetic dogs. I've been trusted to take care of my friends dogs for most of my life, including other husky-mixes & puppies, and one elderly dog. I also have some experience training dogs, as I used to help train a service dog for a friend. I've administrated medications before, although nothing beyond pills or liquid.

Safety, trust & environment

I will send you plenty of pictures and/or videos each day, so you know how your pet is doing!! I will be staying in your home for the agreed duration, and will be using my laptop or console when not busy with your pets. I won't be unavailable or unaware while on my laptop, as I can step away at anytime and will be able to hear hear them if they ever need extra help or attention.

Dakota is our dream pet-sitter! We have a three-pup herd, with varying personalities and we were sent daily updates and pictures, as well as very thoughtful clarification on important things like medication and their schedule. Our time away felt so much more peaceful knowing that our pets were being cared for so well; we will 100% be booking with Dakota for future trips and recommending highly to everyone we know! Book with confidence ❤️✨

Dakota was very good with my pup. She was very responsive and had a lot of good questions to ensure she knew how to best care for my dog. We appreciate her very much.

Schedule

I have a job that I work 4 days a week, for 4-5 hours at a time. Outside of my shifts, you can expect me to dedicate all day entirely to your pets. I can pet-sit any day of the week. I set plenty of alarms on my phone so I never miss walk, play or dinner times. I usually sleep between 10pm-6am, but if you need me up before that, I'm more than happy to adjust within reason. I will be available for contact at all times, and will usually respond within the hour.

Please make sure to have plenty of extra litter and pet food on hand. Let me know your usual feeding and/or medication routine step-by-step so I can do it exactly as they're used to! I'd love to take your pets on walks they're familiar with, so if you has a special route, feel free to send it to me! Let me know what is okay to use or not use in your home so I don't overstep!! If you have any special requests or needs regarding your pets, please let me know in advance, I would be happy to accommodate. I can also take cats on walks but please warn me in advance if that's something you need. If you have any questions about my service, just let me know!!
