Pet care experience

Huge lover of dogs and cats!

I'm a huge lover of dogs and cats. I have cared for dogs of every kind since I was a child, and I've grown fond of cats over the past few years so I'm more than happy to get to know their interesting quirks. Friends, family, and neighbors have counted on me to care for their pets. I provide childcare services to many families, so I am often around their pets as well. I'm super trustworthy, attentive, and intuitive with them. My family dog's name is Nelson, and he is spoiled to death. He's a Morkie Poo, getting older, and has liver issues. It has become one of my favorite hobbies of giving him everything he needs and more (supplements, frequent walks, diet changes) to improve his quality of life because I know he appreciates it! I enjoy meeting new dogs and cats, so I hope you consider me to take care of your pet :).

Safety, trust & environment

I am very respectful of others homes and pets, and I'm always sure to leave each space as I first found it. I treat each space as I would want someone to do to mine. I'll also be happy to send photos/videos of your pet to keep you updated.

Dana was very attentive and caring. As this was the first time using a pet sitter I was a little anxious about how this would go. Dana went above and beyond in caring for my dog and I would definitely use her again

Dana was super communicative, reliable, and super loving to our cats! She took multiple photos every time and made us feel reassured with leaving our cats at home for the holidays.
