Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, routines, or preferences so I can provide the best care possible. I know every dog can be different.

I’m home to give attention, let dogs out as needed, and keep them on their routine. Afternoon: Another potty break or walk, plus playtime or relaxation depending on your dog’s energy level. Evening: Dinner, potty breaks, and wind-down time with lots of attention and comfort. Overnight: Dogs are kept in a safe, comfortable environment with a final potty break before bedtime.

Loving care while you’re not there!

Pet care experience

Loving care, plenty of walks, and lots of attention—keeping your dog happy while you’re away. I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I watch my parents dog when they are out of town and also a friend’s two pups when they’re away.

Our experience with Dana has been absolutely incredible. She’s kind, loving, trustworthy, and totally reliable. She is everything you want when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. She’s also a fantastic communicator, always keeping us updated with messages and photos, which gives us total peace of mind while we’re away. Our dog adores her, and we do too! Highly recommend booking Dana! You and your pup will be in the best hands!

We feel so lucky to have found Dana! She is everything you could ever want in someone caring for your pup—kind, loving, reliable, and 100% trustworthy. From the very first meet and greet, she made both us and our dog feel completely at ease. Her calm, gentle nature and obvious love for animals shine through in everything she does. We trust her completely and never have to worry when we're away. She’s not just a sitter—she’s become part of our dog’s extended family. If you're looking for someone to treat your pup like their own, book her. You won’t regret it!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dana! From the moment we met her, it was clear she has a genuine love for animals and a heart of gold. She is incredibly kind, deeply loving, and treats our dog like one of her own. She is also reliable and trustworthy. We have total peace of mind whenever she's watching our dog, and that’s absolutely priceless. Dana is the best of the best, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her!
