Beagle & schnauzer crazy pet-sitter

Pet care experience

I dog-sat for several years as a teenager. I worked for three years at a grooming salon where I bathed and groomed dogs. I grew up with dogs and have had my own dog for a year and a half.

Dana took excellent care of our beagle Rainy while my husband and I were on vacation in Arizona. Rainy was so excited to stay, she didn't even wait for goodbye pets from us, and was off playing! She got along famously with her two other beagles, and looked like she was having the time of her life with the updates we received. Highly recommend Dana, your pet will be well loved on when you are gone!

We’ve loved having Dana watch our Charlie on multiple occasions. She’s our go-to sitter! She’s fantastic, warm, welcoming, and super flexible. On days that I work later (overnight) or on date nights with my partner she is happy to see Charlie. You will not find a better sitter!

Dana was able to watch my two dogs last minute while I was in town for an event. She sent picture updates even though it was only a few hour stay. It looked like my girls had a lot of fun! Would book again!

Dana took our Charlie in for a last minute overnight stay while my partner and I went on a short trip. Our minds were at ease while we were away as Dana sent plenty of beagle playtime photos! She was sweet and accommodating. We will def rebook for another play date! Thanks Dana you are a rockstar!

I have a fenced yard and two beagles that love to play with other dogs! My beagles are crated when I leave the house because they are a little naughty. When my sister and I are home they are playing or lounging on the couch.

I work a full-time job. I am generally only out of the house for 6 1/2 hours for my job. I am usually home by 1:30 or 2 pm. My dogs are crated during that time. My days off are Sunday and Tuesday. My sister's day off is Wednesday. My beagles get a short walk in the morning and then a longer walk at night. They are out of the crate when I am home. I am available for overnight dog boarding any day of the week.
