Dog Lover Seeking Furries

Pet care experience

There’s just something about a dog that always makes you smile! Their unconditional love is such a positive force in our lives, and I can only admire them for their amazingly selfless spirit. It’s what inspired me to become a dog sitter in the first place! Being able to give back to dogs after they are always so giving to us is a great feeling. I’ve always loved spending time with pups, so getting to take care of them in this capacity is really a dream come true for me! I’ve been a long time dog owner, although my two pups recently passed at the ages of 16 and 17. Since then, I decided that I would dedicate my time to providing love and care to others’ pups instead, and it’s been a wonderful experience. Currently, I am able to provide day care, walks, drop in visits, vet pickups, and dog park visits in the Midtown/ Montrose/ Downtown areas. For day care, I have a townhouse complete with a dog door and fenced patio for pups that enjoy some fresh air. When your pup is under my care, I believe that good communication is of the utmost importance. No one likes to be away from their pup for very long, so I’m here to make sure that the time apart is as easy as possible. I’ll always send lots of updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having together. I know puppy parents always love seeing their fur babies having the time of their lives, so I’m happy to oblige! Likewise, I always keep all of my lines of communication open so you can get in touch with me in case any questions or concerns arise.

Dana is great with Satchmo and took him on lots of walks. We are so lucky to have found her to watch our boy. She made him comfortable in her home and sent cute pictures.

Dana has watched my dogs before and always does an excellent job. She’s very attentive to them.

Great walker! Picked up long walk requests at last minute during really hot time of year. She provided just the right amount of exercise for pup exactly as requested. Would definitely recommend Dana for dog walking!

Information Dana W. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? What’s your preferred method of communication? Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? Is your dog spayed/neutered? Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I like to maintain an active lifestyle, so your pup will be right at home with me if they like to get lots of exercise! There are three great dog parks right within easy walking distance of my house, so there will always be tons of options available if we want to go out and meet new friends. Bagby Park has a nice shady park on sunny days and Midtown Park has a fun incline. Both parks have Yappy Hours for puppy playtime as well! Otherwise, I’m always happy to stick to the sidewalks. Or, if your pup enjoys hanging out at home, we can always just lounge around and enjoy each other’s company together.
