Pet care experience

Every Step, Every Wag—I'm Here!

I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and grew up in a home filled with dogs! My family bred miniature poodles, giving me plenty of experience with special needs and unique care situations. I have a spacious, pet-friendly home with a large backyard, perfect for playtime. Since I work from home, your furry friend will always have company and plenty of attention! If you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet’s specific needs, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to connecting with you and your beloved pets!.

Raider loved his time with Dana! She was very communicative both for the meet and greet and during his stay, and he came back very happy and very tired. He barely wanted to leave!

Pets

A typical day

I always tailor activities to each pet’s personality, energy level, and routine. For dogs, that might include walks, playtime with toys, basic training games, or just some relaxing cuddle time if that’s what they enjoy. For cats, I love interactive play with wand toys, laser pointers, or just giving them attention and affection on their terms. My goal is always to keep pets happy, stimulated, and feeling loved while their owners are away!

Dana can host up to 4 pets per night
It’s important for me to know each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they might have. That includes things like feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, favorite activities, and any behaviors to be aware of—like anxiety triggers, leash reactivity, or quirks around other animals. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're away.
