Experienced Caretaker & Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I have an undergrad degree in Animal Science from NC State and worked my way through college as a vet tech. I have experience caring for my own animals as well as others. I am comfortable administering medications if necessary. I live 5 minutes from the nearest animal hospital should your pet need vet care while you're away. I will love and care for your fur-baby as I care for my own. I'm at home most of the day, unless I need to step out to run some errands. This allows me to have excellent availability and flexibility for walks and potty breaks. I have a 4 year old shih-tzu that plays great with other dogs. He has a lot of energy and loves to run and fetch. If your dog doesn't do well with a higher energy playmate, may not be the best fit for you if you are looking for boarding. Dogs in my home are allowed on the furniture and are welcome to sleep in the bed at night. However, if they prefer to bring their own crate or bed to sleep that's great as well. A comfortable, stress free stay is always the goal! I encourage open and thorough communication so we can ensure your baby has everything they need for a successful stay.
Reviews
What a joy to have a true dog lover take care of my precious Miss Eva. Dana provided a walk and playtime with Miss Eva at noontime each day I was traveling. The photos and feedback on how Miss Eva was behaving were insightful and comforting. Looking forward to scheduling with Dana again in the future.
Dana took great care of my beagle. She was a fantastic communicator and a very attentive caretaker.
Dana did an awesome job with my four “high maintenance” Chihuahuas. Will definitely use her services again.

Any special needs such as medication, allergies, gets car sick, etc. Anything behavioral, for example, doesn't like feet touched, scared of loud noises, resource guarding/food aggressive, etc. Please be forthcoming with anything that could impact the success of their stay.
A typical day
Your dog will accompany me and Wiley on our daily walks. We usually go to the eno for walks so Wiley can swim in the river. Many games of fetch will be played! I also have plenty of puzzles and toys for endless entertainment. There are always squirrels and birds to watch out the window and even the occasional deer will stroll through the yard. If I need to make a quick run to the post office, everyone will get to enjoy a car ride with the windows down! Once everyone is tuckered out, we will enjoy an afternoon nap on the couch.
