Pet care experience

Animal lover with experience!

I've grown up with, and been surrounded by pets my whole life, and really miss it! I go on about 2 walks a day, so I thought I could combine the two. I am very loving, patient, gentle, and attentive with animals. I’ll send you many pictures of your pets enjoying their experiences (while of course missing you)! Your dog(s)/pets will be in great hands! I usually go for a morning walk as soon as I wake up, and then try to get some more air later in the afternoon! Adhering to a dog’s schedule keeps me moving too, which is good for my health! Speaking of health, just a heads up, I do need to be cautious of heavy dust or pet dander in houses. I do best with hardwood floors in living areas. I can accommodate any needs for the dog at the owners house. I pay attention to detail and am attentive and caring. Let me know of any specific needs or sensitivities of your dog and I will keep those in mind while caring for them! How are they on walks? What are your tips and tricks? The more info the better! Just let me know. I am responsible, respectful, and trustworthy in your home and with your loving pets!

Dana is very reliable and lovingly takes care of our lab when we are away for a long weekend. We have booked her services multiple times and have had only positive experiences.

Dana helped us out with a very last minute care for Duncan. Really appreciate it and know that Duncan was being cared for while we had to take care of an emergency.

Dana did an amazing job watching our energetic Lab, Hazel! It's such a relief to know Hazel was in such good hands and had a blast. We'll definitely be asking Dana to watch her again!

We never have a worry about Duncan when Dana is staying with him. She's always great about sending regular updates and every time we come home to a happy pup

Dana is a super communicative and professional house and dog-sitter. She is extremely respectful of our home - keeping it clean while we're away and Lexi absolutely adores her from what we can see in all of the photos that get shared.

Schedule

I enjoy going for walks anyway - with the duration depending on how I'm feeling. I love that dog walking gets me out no matter how I'm feeling or how the Seattle skies are influencing me that day!

Let me know of any medications, schedule, or special needs your dog has and I'll make sure it's taken care of! Also I'd love to know about the dogs temperament or any quirks so I can be mindful of them while caring for your dog!
