Responsible Energetic Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I have always been an animal and outdoors lover. I would be happy to provide your pet with all of its outdoors and playtime needs. I am happy to work with your dog on a regular basis or just occasionally when you need a pet sitter. I am an excellent communicator and try to respond quickly to owner's texts and calls. I have experience with my own animals and taking care of other's pets while they were away. I also have an impressive professional resume if you would like more information on my background to show you that I am organized, reliable, and a trustworthy sitter. I do work full time so would not be able to provide as much attention during week days, though I am happy to stop by before and or after work and in the evenings. If you animal needs extra love and attention throughout the work day I definitely understand that and I would recommend someone else. I am free most weekends.

This was the first time we considered leaving Sequoia home and having someone in the home. So, to say we were a little anxious was an understatement. When we met, we were immediately comfortable with Dana and felt like we made the right choice. Though it was a short trip, the circumstances were a challenge for Dana given we had no A/C for some of the hottest days of the season. And as much as she had the right to complain, she did not. In fact Dana really went out of her way to assure Sequoia was comfortable and did not complain about the 85 degree temps in the house. We highly recommend Dana.

Dana was great with my dog Monty. While he's very shy with strangers, he warmed up to Dana quickly. We met twice before my vacation and after meeting her I was not nervous at all about leaving her with Monty. My two page list of instructions did not bother her and she seemed very excited to be staying with my scared, nervous dog! While on vacation she was very quick to respond to my texts and she sent me updates and pictures daily. She also left my apartment very clean. I certainly plan on booking her in the future when I need a dog sitter.

Dana watched my two small dogs November 14-21. She stayed the night with them and came over once during the day to walk them. We spoke each day and she let me know how things were going at the house and with the dogs. When I met with Dana (2times before we left) she has a very calm presence which I was happy about. My dogs get excited easily and need that calmness In a sitter to settle them down. We were very happy with Dana and will definitely ask her to watch our boys again.

Dana was absolutely fantastic and went above and beyond taking care of our dog! She kept us in the loop about how he was doing and we came back to a spotless apartment, she even washed the sheets for us. She was very responsive and organized, making the trip hassle-free. We hate leaving our pup, but Dana made us feel at ease. We felt very comfortable knowing Charlie was in her hands, and would definitely use her again!

I like to work with pet owners to make sure that my services are offering exactly what the pet needs. I know that some pets can be anxious while their loved ones are away and I would like to make them as comfortable as possible. I would work with owners to create a plan for when to feed, play/exercise/walk, or administer any medicine that the dog may need. I also have a car and would be happy to take the dog to the dog park, vet or any other appointments if needed.
