I am currently completing a Master’s program in dietetics so my schedule varies during the week. I can typically do very early mornings (before 8am), afternoons on some days, and I’m free most evenings. I’m available all day on weekends.
About Dana C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have experience working with dogs and cats of all temperaments. My typical process for a visit is to establish trust with your pet by playing with them for a bit. I then make sure their leash/ harness are secure and take them out for a walk. After returning from outside, I make sure they’re fed and have access to clean water, give them treats if they’re allowed, and secure them in their space (crate, room, etc.)
Information Dana C. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences but just let me know how your dog is with other people and other dogs so that I can prepare for our day together :)
A typical day
Whether your dog has a lot of energy or is a couch potato (as my doggy is, haha!), I'm up for the job! I love being outside, but I also value a good cuddle and play session indoors.

Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Dana and I have over 10 years of experience working with cats and dogs. I had a cat for 15 years until she passed the rainbow bridge. I also have a 12 year old Miniature Pinscher so I understand the special relationship you have with your furry family member. I also used to work at a local boarding kennel with dogs of all sizes and needs. I am available for dog walks and drop-in visits.
Reviews
Dana did an excellent job taking care of my two cats while I was on vacation. She provided plenty of updates & pictures showing how well she was taking care of them, and left everything super clean! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to have someone feed your pets while you are away. Thanks again Dana!

Helped us greatly with our cat.

I am always delighted when Dana takes of my cat Lulu. She pays attention to every detail to make sure Lulu is comfortable when I'm away. Lulu really loves it when Dana visits.

Super attentive to Wynter. As well as prompt. But more importantly was her caring for a Wynter. Wynter and I hope Dana can watch her again.
