Dawanna saved the day! When our original person to watch our dog canceled, she responded promptly to my message. She kept me informed and made my day away, so much easier knowing my dog was taken care of.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

Making sure your animals are safe while you focus on your busy life is my first priority. At home I take my pups for walks, clean after them, and make sure that they have plenty of food and water. I also make sure they are happy and comfortable by playing with them and grooming them daily. Your animal is just as important and I will cater to them just like my own.

Pets

A typical day

A pets life should be about fun and safety. I love playing catch, brushing, and just talking to pets. Anything that would make your pet more comfortable and happy.
