Safety, trust & environment

In your home I will follow your regular rules and routines you have in place for your pets. I find that sticking to your pet’s normal routine keeps them calm and happy when their family members are away.

Information Dana M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know what your pet(s) regular routine is, vet and emergency contact information, as well as any medical or dietary needs (and anything else that would be important to know about your pet)! I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all breeds, ages and sizes.

A typical day

When your pet is with me, it will be like they are on vacation! I like to keep a happy, relaxed environment for the animals I care for. There will be lots of playtime, treats, pets and cuddles.

Reliable, compassionate care

Pet care experience

Hey there! I’m Dana, I’m a night owl, film and reality tv lover, I enjoy hiking, going to the beach, listening to music, cooking & spending time with friends and family. I’m a lifelong animal lover (of all animals, even the tiniest bug!) and have been professionally pet sitting for over 10 years. I have experience with all kinds of animals, but am a big softie for large breed dogs. I have two German shepherds and a beagle, but don’t worry- I live with family, so they will be cared for while I’m with your pet! I strongly believe in leaving things better than you found them, which means that your home and pets will receive lots of TLC while I’m with them.

Dana was attentive and very good at managing our pup’s anxiety during the firework shows. Highly recommended!

Dana took such great care of my anxious pup and put my mind at ease. He looked so happy in all the photos I really appreciated the updates. Would definitely boom with her again!
