Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, experienced animal care!
I've cared for animals for friends, family and agencies since childhood. Experience includes bottle feeding, medication dog training and feral kitten socialization. Worked with San Francisco Humane Society as an adoption coordinator, worked on friends' farms with livestock and more recently, foster kittens with RASKC. I also have some small critter experience including bunnies and rats. Large home and flexible schedule. I have references a mile long and have been finger printed/background checked all over the west coast since youth. For longer stays or multiple pets we can offer Airport parking and drop off since we are only 20 minutes from seatac!

Ratings and reviews
Dana was absolutely amazing! Would book her again and again! Atticus just loved her and she showed such thoughtful care and consideration. Always ensuring he was happy — sharing toys and tips for his allergies. Feel so thankful for him making a new friend.
Great service! Will use her again for sure in the future. Thank you!
Dana was great and I felt good leaving my cat with her and her family. Will definitely book Dana again.
Dana is an amazing Pet sitter! I got pictures all along the way of my trip and my cat looked like she could not be happier. Dana and her daughter treated KiKi as if she was part of the family. I very much highly recommend Dana. She is kind, understanding and very responsible. We will now not go anywhere else again for our cat while we are away. A big thank you again to Dana and her whole family. We appreciate you very much! 😊
After two episodes of cat boarding, I think we've found our go-to cat sitter! We are so appreciative of Dana Marie's kindness, compassion, and flexibility!
Dana did an awesome job boarding our cat! She's very responsive, flexible, and open to feedback. Will be booking with her again!

Schedule
I work school hours, Monday-Friday 7:30-3, so evenings, weekends and school breaks are open, and my husband works from home so someone is always there. I don't mind driving or running errands as part of care.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a partially fenced yard and long lead if needed and plenty of energy to provide frequent walks. I have two dogs who are friendly with small friendly dogs, and one very friendly cat. All my animals are up to date on vaccines, flea/tick treatment and are neutered. For cats or invalid animals, I have several extra rooms, one very large if animals needed to be separated.
Pets
A typical day
I live right next to Lake Youngs and walk my own dogs almost daily there. I occasionally go to sniff spots and have done agility parks with dogs in the past. I LOVE hiking and lakeside walks and exploring new terrain.
- CatsSpayed and neutered dogs onlyNo females in heatCrate-trained dogs onlyDana Marie can host up to 4 pets per night
- I need to know how reactive/friendly dogs are to other dogs and humans, horses, wildlife, etc. Also need to know where a dog is in terms of training, commands they are used to and special skills they are working on. Endurance and stamina, any special needs are important to know as well.
