Pet care experience

Love all kinds of fur babies

I've had cats since I was a child, most recently two sweet cats with different personalities who each lived for 18 years. I have experience in administering medication. I’ve also taken care of my sister’s dog for 10 years as well as several of my friends' dogs by walking, playing and feeding them on time.

Dana did a great job taking care of our dog while we were on vacation for the week. She was very thorough when meeting with us before hand, and it was obvious that she takes her job seriously! She even stayed in our home a few nights and brought her own sheets so we wouldn’t have to wash them after. Highly recommend Dana!

I have known Dana for over 25 years, and she is one of the nicest, kindest people I know. I have seen Dana with her cats and would describe them as some of the most cared for and loved cats there are. I have also had Dana watch my dog on a couple of occasions, and she did such a good job that I am not sure my dog wanted to come home with me when I returned. In short, there is not a more qualified person to take care of either dogs or cats than Dana. Feel free to contact me if you would like any further information. - Tony Sassan
