Pet care experience

I am that annoying (read:dog obsessed) person who always asks to pet your dog on the street when you're trying to get it somewhere. I have been taking care of dogs - either my own or family and friends for 25+ years. I grew up with moderate sized boxers, and have cared for smaller and larger dogs. I can run your dog, walk your dog, am in excellent physical shape and am easily accessible to all locations in Philadelphia. I have had puppies, senior dogs, special needs issues, and am comfortable giving dogs medication orally. I am an all around dog person, and will care for your dog as my own. I live in a high rise, this takes care of my inability to have a dog.

Dana is a reliable dog walker with extensive experience not only growing up in a house with boxers, but also helps care for friends' dogs in our neighborhood. I have seen her in action first hand and dog owners should feel confident with their fur babies in Dana's extremely capable hands.

Dana has been taking care of my dogs for a couple of years and they love her. She walks them, plays with them and sometimes just hangs with them (after they do their business) if it is too hot, cold or inclement. I trust her with my fur babies and my home.

I have known Dana for 5 years and the best way to describe her is a passionate hard working woman who has such a love for animals. Every time we pass a dog on the street she always wants to meet them and pet them! She treats every friends dog like family and your animals would be lucky to have such an attentive, loving dog walker such as her!

Information Dana S. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if your dog has a history of aggressiveness towards other dogs, humans, small children, cats or a history of bites. I have no breed preferences. I ask that if your dog is a puller on a leash, and is strong, that you have a harness in the house. This is safer for both myself, and your dog. I don't want to run the risk of your dog pulling its collar off from pulling the leash

A typical day

We can walk around the neighborhood, the city, whatever location you live in. If you have a fenced yard, I will be happy to play with your dog until they decide it's naptime/have exhausted themselves.
