Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs: This is the best day ever!
I adore animals, especially dogs! I’ve had dogs my entire life and know how to relate to them. I currently have a Sheltie who is the apple of my eye. I have experience sitting for dogs and cats, and I treat each one of them like my own. Taking my cues from each pet, I am playful, gentle, patient, and encouraging. I understand how to read doggie body language and make animals feel at ease, even shy ones. Let’s play! 🐾
Cat care experience
Dana also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I have experience house sitting and pet sitting. I treat your home and pets with the utmost respect and care. I believe in providing familiar routines to pets so they feel comfortable while their pet parents are away. I provide lots of genuine affection and play time and can also provide quiet time for rest and comfort for older or shyer pets. I understand how much pets miss their families when they’re not home, so I try to make the time away as easy as possible for all. I am a good communicator and will happily provide updates on your beloved pet’s health and happiness.
Ratings and reviews
Dana N. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
Dana was wonderful with our crew of two dogs and a cat. Super attentive and communicative. We will definitely plan to book her again.
We are so comfortable leaving our beloved boy with Dana. We can tell from daily report cards and photos that he is so well taken care of and so very comfortable with her! Thank you Dana for making everything so smooth and reassuring for us!
Thank you Dana for all the TLC and outstanding care as always. I know the cats adore you and look forward to your visits!!
Dana was amazing! She was so kind to our dog and was incredibly responsive. Looking forward to working with her in the future!
Dana is incredibly knowledgable, experienced, and patient! She not only understood how stubborn and strong-willed Shiba Inus are, but also had the skills to develop a strong relationship with Koyuki in such a limited time frame. Additionally, Dana generously reworked her schedule to accommodate some of Koyuki's extra stubborn moods. I cannot recommend her enough, and I will absolutely contact her first in the future!

Schedule
I work from home during the day and have a somewhat flexible schedule (e.g., mornings, lunch breaks, etc.). I am available most evenings and weekends. I live in Chapel Hill so am usually available in the Triangle area, but occasionally I visit family in the Charlotte area so am available for walking and sitting there as well sometimes.
