Pet care experience

my friends call me "Dog Whisperer"

I've always taken a special interest in dogs, just spending time with them and finding out what makes them tick and what motivates them. I've been the go-to-pet sitter when friends or family need help. From obedience training and agiity training, I truly enjoy working, caring and spending time with dogs. I started with pound puppies, then owned a few pure breed dogs and now I'm back to rescues. I've owned, loved and cared for many dogs.

Dana is friendly, communicative, and made me very comfortable leaving Jade in her care. She was flexible when I had a flight delay, which was super appreciated! Jade came home a happy pup. Will book with her again.

Dana lived up to her 5 star rating. She was very patient with me since I was a first time Rover user. She provided extra treats for Ollie at her cost. She send me pictures and updates each day. Dana has a cute dog also named Ollie so it provided her with additional challenge. I plan on using her for all my dog sitting needs.

Dana is fantastic. My dog Oakley had a great time and was well taken care of. Dana sent plenty of pictures throughout our trip so we could see how Oakley was doing. Will definitely rebook with her in the future.

Dana did an exceptional job taking care of my Yorkshire Terrier for 21 days. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced. She provided regular updates with photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away.

Schedule

I am a part time RN and have a very flexible schedule. My dog Ollie and I would love to hang out with your dog(s) when you can't be there! We enjoy walks, hiking, socializing with others and their dogs, and visiting businesses that welcome dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

My yard is fully fenced and have a doggy door if your pup likes to be in and out frequently. My dog is very friendly and gets along well with other dogs. He enjoys romping with friends, neighbors and family member's dogs and would enjoy the company of your dog! We do cuddle on the couch and have our own doggy beds around the house for naps. We can provide crate time too if preferred. We love toys, treats, naps in the sun and playing fetch for just about anything.

Pets

A typical day

One of our favorite places to walk is along the walking paths in Windsor. The beginning of one is right out our back door. Lots of great places to sniff and view ducks, birds, owls, prairie dogs and eagles. This same path leads to Windsor Lake, a favorite of ours as well. Hope your dog likes walking on a leash or is willing to try. .
