Love all pets; flexible student.

Pet care experience

Hello, my name is Dakota and I'm a full-time student at SUNY Oswego. I absolutely love all animals regardless of size, shape, and temperament. I always had at least one pet when growing up and for five years I have worked at a daycare and broading facility. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, and small animals of all ages and temperaments. I'm not afraid of snakes and would be more than happy to care for any reptile. As for pets with special needs (ie medical or nutritional), I am capable of handling whatever your pet needs! I want to be your pets next best friend and I will do everything I can to provide the absolute best care they deserve.

Dakota was excellent and attentive. She gave updates about Sugar to us, and asked great questions during our pre-booking meet and greet as well as the walk-through when she picked up the house key. I felt great knowing Sugar was in good hands. Sugar was happy to see us home, of course, but I could tell she had her needs and wants met while we were gone. I would recommend Dakota and would book her again - watching an old dog isn't always as fun as a young puppy, and Dakota's gentle nature was great!

Dakota is reliable, attentive and friendly. Our dogs get very excited when we tell them that she is coming to visit.

It was awesome having Dakota watch our two cats. They were calm when we arrived home which meant she spent a lot if time playing with them and giving them tender loving care. Thank you so much, Dakota. We hope to have her watch them again.

Dakota is amazing and I trust her whole heartedly with my pups. My quirky Great Dane and energetic lab adore her and always sleep like rocks on the days Dakota takes care of them. If I ever need to leave for the weekend, I wouldn’t hesitate to ask Dakota to stay in my home and take care of the boys. I couldn’t be happier with her service - a gem! Highly, highly recommend.

Information Dakota W. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to know the dog's temperament before sitting or walking them. If they are aggressive in any way (ie food, dog, or certain people), I would like to know so I can work around it in order to reduce their stress. I'm also interested in knowing what their preferences are; I want to make your pet the happiest they can be and will do anything to make that happen!

A typical day

Whatever your furry friend desires, I am willing to provide. Love long walks around town or on hiking trails? I'm down. Love playing fetch for hours on end? So do I. Love going for car rides? I'll love to have the company. Love just lounging around? I'll provide the much loved pets. Really anything your pet loves to do, I'm more than happy to accommodate.
