Pet care experience
I have grown up living with and caring for dogs my entire life, from five pound Chihuahuas to 100 pound mutts. Dogs bring me immense joy and any time spent with them is a delight. Playing with dogs, walking them, and watching them is something I simply love to do. I adopted my first cat three years ago and have fallen just as much in love with them as dogs. In fact, my cat required daily injected medication for 3 months to treat a serious illness. As a result, I am now very comfortable administering medications and caring for pets with health concerns. I am available most days of the week and am happy to answer any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your dogs!
Reviews
Dana took amazing care of my kitty and my place!
Dana was *amazing*! She took such good care of my cat, including lots of play, quality lap time, and took the best pictures (seriously, the pictures and updates were so nice, and made me feel like she understood my cat well). I highly recommend booking her for your cat!
Dana was so great! She came the day before to meet Willa and get our keys. She took Willa on a nice long walk, took lots of photos and left us a nice summary of each walk. So great and reliable!
Dana did an awesome job taking care of my cat Amelie! I really appreciated all the detailed descriptions and photos of each time she checked in on Amelie (and thank you for cleaning up her vomit too! Sorry about that!). She also helped water some plants which are looking great. Would definitely recommend Dana to others ?
About Dana J.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Your comfort and your pet’s safety is my top priority, and I adapt to what you need to feel comfortable. For drop in visits and pet sitting, I always meet with you ahead of time to discuss your expectations and your pet’s unique needs.
Information Dana J. would like to know about your pet
I'm comfortable with all kinds of dogs, just let me know their usual temperament and any unusual behaviors. I love all breeds, but my childhood dogs were all beagles, so I have a soft spot for them.
A typical day
Your dog and I will go on walks around the neighborhood, or on your preferred route if you have one! I love exercising dogs, so I'm happy to run with your dogs, play catch in the backyard, and give plentiful belly rubs.
