Outstanding Dog Walker 🐶

Pet care experience

I've had dogs since before I could walk and my love for our furry companions is never-ending! I raised my chihuahua/jack russell, Ricki, for 19 years until she passed a couple years ago. She was one of the lights of my life! I raised her from the time she was 6 weeks old. I can still remember waking up at 2 a.m. to her yelps the first night we brought her home and bottle feeding her on the kitchen floor. When she was younger, I took her on endless walks to expend her jack russell energy, and as she transitioned into the senior phase of life, I administered her oral medicine, took her for carefully guided walks, and provided all of the care a senior dog needs. In addition to loving my own pups, I am passionate about caring for all dogs. I currently volunteer for pet rescues, in which I take shelter dogs for walks, conduct home visits for potential adopters, and transport animals. I absolutely love dogs of all ages and breeds and take the utmost responsibility in caring for them on walks. I'm completely confident that your pup will have a great walk with me, and I assure you that peace of mind while they are in my care.

Dana's love for dogs and her caring, responsible nature make her a great dog sitter! I see how she loves her own dog and every dog she meets, and they're always comfortable with her. She's trustworthy and caring and I'm happy to leave my pets in her care!

Dana has been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. She has always shown love and care for her own dog, Ricki, as well as my dogs, Fran and Ruby. When I needed someone to watch Fran, Dana did an amazing job. Animals can sense that they have a friend and kindred spirit in her!

Dana is exceptionally caring and responsible. As a dog caregiver, she is loving and kind. She is able to handle emergency situations if ever called for. She is a life long ‘dog mom’ herself and she will take the best care of your dog.

Dana is very caring and responsible. She has raised her dog from 6 weeks old and her dog is now almost 19 years old! Dana loves dogs and has a keen sense of each dog's personality and knows how to walk a dog, while making sure the dog is not stressed and just having a good time. She treats each dog special and pays attention to the dog and the surroundings in which the dog and her are in as well. I highly recommend her!

Information Dana H. would like to know about your pet

I’d like to know his or her age, breed and size and if he or she has any health and/or behavioral issues I should be aware of. I’m very good with dogs so it usually won’t be an issue; I would just like to know ahead of time to be prepared.

A typical day

Your dog will have a fun and relaxing walk or home visit with me! If you need me for a walk, I can come to your dwelling and take your dog on a walk through your neighborhood or to a nearby park or even the beach to a dog-friendly spot. I will bring his or her toys if he or she likes to play and water or snacks, whatever you request. I will pace the walk depending on his or needs and conduct the home visit with a fun, calm, knowlegable manor.
