I work full time, but only three days a week, and I attend school part-time online—so I still have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets! I’m available for morning, evening, and weekend care, and can accommodate a variety of schedules. Whether you need drop-ins, overnights, or extended stays, I’ll do my best to work around your pet’s routine. With my online classes and open days, I’m able to provide lots of love, attention, and playtime throughout the week!

A typical day

In the morning, I start with a cheerful greeting and a potty break to get your dog’s day off to a good start. After that, I refresh their water, serve breakfast, and spend some time playing or cuddling, depending on what they love most. During the day, we’ll go for walks, enjoy some backyard play, or work on simple commands for a little mental stimulation. I always make sure your pup gets bathroom breaks and plenty of attention throughout the day. In the evening, it’s time for dinner, another walk or potty break, and some calm play or snuggle time to help them wind down. I keep to your dog’s routine as closely as possible, giving them the love, exercise, and care they need so they feel happy and comfortable while you’re away.

Pawsome Care While You’re Away!

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve been dog sitting for 3+ years and have loved every minute—tail wags, belly rubs, zoomies, and all! I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and breeds, from bouncy puppies to mellow seniors, and I’m totally comfortable with multiple dogs at once. Whether we’re hanging out at your place or mine, I make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and right at home. I’m down for whatever—park adventures, yard play, chill time, or snuggles on the couch. I’ve got some flexibility in my schedule too, so I can work around your pet’s routine. Your dog’s happiness is always my priority!

Dana was incredibly accommodating and supportive of our last minute need for boarding our dog, Cookie Dough. She even picked up and dropped off. Cookie seemed to enjoy his stay with her and returned to us in good spirits. I will definitely utilize Dana's services next time we go out of town.

Dana is the best! She takes care of my three pups Shaggy, Dolly, and Chico and they absolutely love her. They’re all young and full of energy, and she gives them all the attention, playtime, and care they need. She walks them, takes them to the park, bathes them, brushes them, you name it! What really sets Dana apart is how much she genuinely cares. She’s taken the time to truly get to know each of my dogs (and me!), and it shows in how happy and comfortable they are with her. She’s always loving, patient, and goes the extra mile to make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I always feel completely at ease knowing they’re with her, and I 100% recommend Dana to anyone looking for someone kind, reliable, and totally devoted to your furry family.

Dana was absolutely amazing with my senior pup, Coco! She took her on walks, to the park, gave her baths, brushed her, and even made sure she got her medication right on schedule. She followed all my requests perfectly and kept me updated the whole time. Coco can be picky with people, but she and Dana totally clicked it was clear they formed a special bond. Dana is super sweet, fun, and easy to communicate with. I felt 100% at ease knowing Coco was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who truly cares!
