Pet care experience

Let's PAWty!!

I've owned both cats and dogs of my own for about 15 years that I love beyond words. While in college I worked as a veterinary assistant for 2 years and worked as a foster through SPCA for 4 years. In both instances I worked with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. Because of my work in an animal hospital, I am also very familiar with and comfortable with administering a wide range of medications. Please feel free to contact me about any questions you might have!

Dana was amazing ! She send updates multiple times a day, with a ton of pictures. Our flight was delayed and our doggies had to stay till late in the night, and she was very understanding. Will definitely be using her services again.

Teddy couldn’t stop raving about what a wonderful time he had with his new friends! He was well cared for & the updates were consistent without us even having to ask. 10/10 will book again!

Cowboy had a great first stay with Dana & Jared! Dana sent daily updates with lots of pictures of Cowboy settling in while in their home and out exploring during their walks. I loved seeing him become more comfortable in each update. It is great to know he is well-cared for in a safe environment while I am away.

We had a wonderful experience with Dana while we were away for a week. This was our young Labrador’s first extended stay away from home, and I was naturally a little nervous, but both Dana put my mind at ease right away. She provided updates, photos, and communication throughout the stay, and it was clear that Voltage was well cared for and comfortable. They were attentive to his routine, handled all of his quirks and puppy energy with patience, and made sure he got plenty of exercise, enrichment, and affection. When we picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I especially appreciated the flexibility with pickup timing and willingness to work with all of the instructions I left. It’s obvious both Dana and her husband genuinely care about the dogs in their care. I would absolutely trust them with Voltage again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring sitter.

Dana and Jared were absolutely wonderful! They were super kind and took the best care of Lu. All of the pictures I got of Lu were super cute and she looked like she was having the best time. She was definitely happy! Lu is hoping she can hangout with them again in the future! Thank you Dana & Jared 😊

Schedule

I'm currently working full time but still have a fairly flexible schedule. After work I enjoy keeping the day going by working out and staying active, so a nice afternoon and evening walk or check-in would fit in perfectly with my schedule. My fiancé and I do live together and have always been animal lovers. In short, your fur baby gets twice the attention!

Safety, trust & environment

I am a huge animal lover with a big heart and treat all fur babies as if they were my own. Your pet's day with me would consist of plenty of outside time in our large yard, walks around the neighborhood (if wanted), and naturally all the snuggles in the world. I want you and your pet to be equally as comfortable while I am caring for them, so I readily provide updates and pictures of them during their time here. We are also conveniently located about 10 minutes from MCO if you’re headed in or out of town!

A typical day

First I would ask you about any extra special activities your fur baby enjoys! For a typical visit, your dog can expect many different activities such as fetch, rope tug, replenished enrichment toys if you have them, and lots of love!
