Pet care experience

Let me your baby's loving Aunt!

Hello, I am the daughter of a real life dog whisperer and like everyone in my family, I love dogs (all animals to be honest). I have decided to open my home to other dogs. Whether it’s difficult medical needs, I have trained with a vet for dog CPR, shots and even IVs are no problem. My dog Bailey is very sociable and loves to play with others. In addition, I am very adept at training should you want me to help with that (basic commands and tricks) while they are in my home. My home is set up so any dog can easily find water to stay hydrated. A large and completely fenced back yard will provide plenty of safe fun and exercise. Your baby is never left unattended outside. For a fun and loving environment, book a stay with me

Aunt Dana took wonder care of my Bella. She cared for her and made her feel right at home. I will definitely be booking aunt Dana again really soon. I appreciate Dana very much. 5-star service

Buddy has stayed with Dana a few times now for stays between a few days and about 10 days. He’s happy to arrive, is well taken care of, and is calm and happy upon pickup. Dana has gone out of her way to make sure buddy is comfortable and that his medications are applied and administered. She is communicative through the app sending lots of updates and pictures. We always feel Buddy is well cared for while we are away. We are grateful for Dana and are so glad we have a trusted sitter for our senior pup.

Dana was great! She took really good care of our Cavapoo and sent tons of pictures and updates to let us know how she was doing. Our dog was excited to see us but made sure to say goodbye to Dana before leaving. You could tell she was well cared for and loved. Definitely recommend

Dana was amazing! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout his stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and treats them with so much care, attention, and extra love. My pup was definitely spoiled in the best way, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!

Schedule

I work from home and that is part-time so I am always with your baby. I also don't have set hours in my part-time job so I can stop for belly rubs and playtime at any point in the day.

Safety, trust & environment

My Roomba runs all of the time to keep anything off of the floor. I only use dog approved cleaning products in my home. Your dog is secure before I open my front door to get packages etc. I do not take any chances with them being able to run out the front door.

Pets

A typical day

I love the outdoors! We have our morning potty break with coffee. I have 2 different-sized size ball launchers, a bubble blower that produces dog bacon flavor bubbles, and in the summer I have a doggie pool. Tons and tons of new toys so everyone gets to pick out a new toy to take home.

Any allergies or special care instructions. If they need to be kenneled because you are kennel training I have a couple of different sizes and I also have a dog playpen.
