Dawn is truly gifted as a loving caregiver for dogs! She worked patiently with us to have a meet-n-greet and then we set up an overnight stay to ensure our dog, Holly, would feel safe and comfortable. Dawn provided lots of cuddles and sent an update with pictures to let us know Holly was doing well. Dawn also provided thoughtful creative touches that made the experience great for the entire family, both pets and pet-parents. In the past when using a kennel setting for Holly’s care, Holly would cry all the way home and be very distressed when we picked her up from the kennel. When we picked up Holly from Dawn, she cried only a little, (after all, Holly wants us to know she missed us), but she calmed very quickly and I believe it’s because she felt much safer with Dawn than in the kennel environment. We feel so confident in Dawn’s caregiving that we will leave Holly with her for an upcoming multi day trip. I highly recommend Dawn as a pet sitter for your furry family members!

Dawn did an excellent job on the booked drop in visits. Even made it through a dust bowl one day and snow the next day. Cooper and Connie took to Dawn right away and was glad to see her every visit. I loved her upbeat, happy personality. I will definitely use Dawn again.

I recently needed a sitter for the weekend for our loveable pup Nala. Dawn was very responsive & set up a meet & greet to give Nala a chance to get to know her & her home before the big weekend. She was so sweet and patient. She is also super aware to ask about any preferences or special needs/meds/etc. She sent us photos of Nala playing fetch & cuddling up over the weekend. I highly recommend Dawn for any of your pet sitter needs. She spoils them & makes sure they feel comfortable and are well cared for!

Dawn is the most ideal pet sitter you can ever find! She helps ease my nerves when I’m away by sending lots of pictures and videos and includes a report of her visit and what they did! She is extremely qualified and will treat your animals as if they were her own! She’s great with animals of all sizes including our 125lb pup and little kitties. I am so thankful to have found such a great pet sitter. You rock!

Information Dawn A. would like to know about your pet

The main things I like to know ahead of time are any medical conditions, even if they’re dormant at the time. If your pet is on any medications or supplements, as well as if they have any allergies. All pets must be up to date on Rabies, Distemper and Bordetella vaccines.

I love taking kiddos on walks to explore the neighborhood since I’m close to John Stiff park. I also offer mental enrichment in the form of snuffle mats, frozen kongs, lick mats and other treat filled toys!
