Lots of past & current experience!

Pet care experience

I’ve been a pet owner for most of my life. I’ve owned dogs, cats, parakeets, ducks, rabbits, hamsters, and fish to name a few. I love all animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I strive to keep your pets as comfortable as possible while also showing them the same affection I’d show my own. In the past, I worked at a dog resort and spa. I not only held the title of pet care associate but also was a shuttle driver for the pets. I currently have a dog of my own; Tate Ann who is a beautiful beagle. I frequently house and pet sit for family and friends. My repeat sitting jobs include a Miniature Australia Shepherd, Boxer, French Bulldog, German Shepherd, Beagle, Shitzu, two Coon Hounds and ducks. I look forward to adding more animal babies to my sitting jobs!

Dana is amazing and goes above and beyond! She is great at communicating and she also gave very in depth reports and took the sweetest pictures of Moose. I knew right away Moose made a new friend and had no worries at all while I was gone. I will definitely recommend Dana for your pet's needs and will definitely have her back in the future!!

My fur baby is a rescue so she is very timid. She loved Dana on site. She is very comfortable with Dana and is looking forward to seeing her again!!

Safety, trust & environment

When sitting in a clients home, I am extremely respectful of the space. If possible, I want to leave the space in the same or better condition than when I arrived. I know pets can be nervous when their parents are gone, so I try to keep them as comfortable as possible. If routines are typical for your pet, I want to stick as close to them as possible. I work hard to build trust and a relationship with every animal. There is nothing more rewarding than becoming great friends with my clients!

Information Dana M. would like to know about your pet

I think meeting with you and your pets is an extremely important first step. Secondly, I really appreciate detailed instructions concerning feeding schedules, desired treats/toys, medications, and any other special needs. The more information you can provide, the better I can care for your pet!

A typical day

I always have treats and poo bags on hand for walks. If there’s a specific toy or treat your pet prefers, I’d be more than happy to bring them along. I love to walk around the neighborhood with my furry friends and see new sights. When indoors, I give lots of love and typically refill water sources if possible. If you would like meals or other needs met during that time, I can definitely accommodate!
