Pet care experience

I’m 26 years old and work part time from home as an accountant! I have a lot of availability and time to spend with your pups! I have always loved animals especially dogs! I have cared for dogs of all ages from 6 weeks old to 15 years old. My childhood dog who passed away a few years ago lived until he was 15 years old. He was blind and deaf at the end of his life and required many medications and overall care. I was the sole caretaker for him so I have years of experience of older dog care, no matter what that entails. I now have a 6 year old dog that I rescued at 6 weeks old so I definitely have experience at the other end too! I can bring my dog to your house if your animals like to have a friend to play with or I can leave her at home! I can taylor to any of your dogs needs. I can run or play fetch with them or just give them some much needed loving and belly rubs. I have many years of experience house sitting and watching neighbors dogs. I also worked at a doggie daycare and boarding facility overseeing 30+ dogs at a time. I have experience with all shapes and sizes and that is what I look forward to most. Meeting all new pups with all different needs and personalities!

Dana is fantastic! She stopped by to let Albus and Tom out to potty, and everything went so smoothly. Tom can be a little shy and anxious with new people, but she was so patient and gentle that he warmed right up to her. Both boys were well-cared for and happy after her visit. Highly recommend!

Dana did a fantastic job taking care of my 2 cats. One of our cats has to take daily medication due to HCM (heart condition) and Dana was able to do that for us. We received daily photos. I worry about our pets when we are away in vacation (they are our babies) but Dana made us feel so comfortable knowing they were taken care of. She and her husband are both 10/5 star sitters! They’re both very friendly people. I highly recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sam had a blast with Dana D. Drop off and pick up were so easy with clear communication throughout. She has a calm confidence that instilled trust right from the start. And she sent cute pics too! Our energetic pup was pleasantly exhausted after a playful day that included plenty of outdoor romping and stick fetching (his fave!). We were nervous to send our little Sammers for his first time with a sitter but couldn’t be more pleased with the experience.
