Loving & responsible care always.

Pet care experience

We are a kid-free family with lots of love, attention and special care for your four-legged family member. I recently lost my 14 year old boxer mix rescue who I got when he was 5 months old and although I’m not ready for another one of my own, I want to be able to offer my years of dog owner experience to other dog owners their dogs. Due to our dog having been a senior with special care needed, I am most recently experienced with that age but I love the energy and playfulness of the younger ones as well. I believe there is a time for play and a time for mindfulness when dealing with dogs and in general, I am good at relaying to a dog that I am the “pack leader”. I do not believe in any kind of physical reprimand and only use a firm voice if needed. I have a very large fenced in back yard for us to play in and I love going for long doggie walks in my neighborhood. I do have neighbors on both sides of me and behind me; none have small children and there is only one dog. I would love to meet you and your dog to see if I would be a good fit for both of you!

Dana was a fabulous sitter! Our dog seemed so happy and content there. Dana kept us updated with texts and pictures the whole time. I'm sure that Penny will be excited to go back again!

I was new to Rover.com, Dana and her husband are wondering people and took care of my 13.5 year old Molly like it was there own. Molly is a large (120 lb golden retriever / Newfoundland). Dana was great about sending me pics of my girl and I had no worries about my best bud being in the best care! This is a wonderful family and I am glad they were able to help me out while I had to go on a business trip. when I got home, my bud had no issues, very well taken care of. I would recommend Dana to anyone!

Dana & her husband were excellent to our bishon, Eddie. He was well taken care of and they did everything possible to make him feel comfortable and at home. I would highly recommend her. She is very kind and caring!

Information Dana P. would like to know about your pet

Do they have any kind of separation anxiety? Are they destructive in any way when left alone? Are they typically left alone during the day? How long can they go without a potty break?

A typical day

I like to take walks within my neighborhood which does have sidewalks throughout. If your dog likes car rides, we could also hop in the car to go to a local park to walk. We can play fetch or just run around in our fenced in back yard as well.
