Best Buddy to your Best Buddy!

Pet care experience

As a lifelong dog lover, I know just how great it is to have a pup in your life. They’re always there for us, and they just want to make us happy! In fact, it’s that giving spirit that has always inspired me to do what I can for others. When I discovered the opportunity to be a full-time pet sitter through Rover, I jumped at the chance! I always have loved taking care of animals and people alike, so being a pet sitter allows me to do both. Your pup will enjoy all of my love and attention, and you’ll have the peace of mind that comes with knowing that your best friend is in good hands. One of the best parts about me as a sitter is that I’m available full-time. Since my daughter has started school, I now have my days (and nights!) free to spend taking care of pups. That leaves me all day to make sure that your pup has the best time possible! Because I have the day to spend with your pooch, I’m a great fit for animals that are used to having a human presence around them, or for ones that would benefit from that! Plus, it means that your pup will have all day to roam around free. After all, no one likes keeping their pup crated up during the day, so it’s my pleasure to give them the freedom they need to thrive! When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great way to make sure that we’re all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it’s always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level to show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all.

We first met Dana when she took care of our cat, and she did a wonderful job. So when we had to go out of town for a few days and couldn't take our dog, we called Dana. Dana and her family were so sweet with our shy little girl. It took her a few days to settle in but Dana really went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable. Communication as always was great. We will not hesitate to book again!

Information Dana G. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? - Is your dog spayed/neutered? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I lead a very active lifestyle, so your pup will be a great fit for me if they like to get out and about. There are tons of things to do locally, so we’ll never be starved for adventure. Between running, playing tug-of-war, fetch, or just cuddling up on the couch together, I’ll always accommodate your pup’s energy needs. I know that a healthy pup is a happy pup, so I’ll do everything I can to make sure they stay happy and fresh with me!
