Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Dayna I’m a mom to both the 2 legged and 4 legged varieties. My teen loves to help take care of our guests. We want your pet to get the real home and family feel when they are with us so like our own babies they will have the run of the house and are allowed on the furniture though we also offer crates if they like to sleep in them or have time to themselves. We do not allow table scraps or rawhide. I have a white GSP mix and three cats at home and have worked for animal shelters including adoption counselor and fostering for over 10 years and have had pets my entire life with experience from puppies to seniors with the extra care that goes with both. We are located a mile from downtown Glen Ellyn less than 5 minutes from 2 different parks including a fenced-in a dog park (ask me for details if you would like your pup to play at the dog park) I work with fur, scales, feathers, and hooves including stable/farm animals, everything from horses on down and offer basic grooming options: Bath, brush, trim, and nails for an additional fee We do check-ins (including photos) with you to let you know how your pet has been doing this can be done daily or less depending on how you would like. Our goal is that your pet receives the same love and care that they would from you and for you to feel comfortable knowing they will be loved and well taken care of while in our care. Drop off starts at 7 am and pick up up until 8 pm. Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella are required vaccinations. Please provide proof of current vaccinations and/or the contact information and authorization to speak to your vet if needed.
Reviews
Dana is fantastic!! She walks my dog 3 times a week while I’m at work. My dog Gianna loves her & most importantly I can trust her.
Dana is the absolute best. I could not recommend her more and we have always been so happy to send our pups to her!
Dana is the best. Does a great job and our dog always comes home happy
I should probably say something evil- just to assure I can book Dana any time I need. But I can’t. She’s awesome. Rascal adores her- to the point of looking out the window expecting her visit.

Information Dana C. would like to know about your pet
Basic information I need includes: • Feeding instructions – how often and how much o Any food allergies o Type of bowl they need • Potty schedule for pups – Do they need an extra walk at night or in the middle of the day? • FYIs – o Likes/Dislikes ( such as car rides or if they don’t like to be handled a certain way ) o Warnings such as food aggression ( we feed separately but if there is food aggression we also keep bones or other edible type toys put away) • Medical – If they need medication the instructions to administer it.
A typical day
We enjoy walks long or short depending on what the dog likes going to dog parks if your dog has a license to a local dog park or you would like to obtain a visitor's pass. We also like to play with them whether fetch or tug of war or whichever games they enjoy or they just want to be a cuddle bug. When there are weather extremes such as high and/or low temps we visit Petsmart or other pet-friendly locations to let them stretch their legs.
