Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard on just under 1/2 acre, and my four dogs love to romp and play which is part of their daily routine. They also love long walks or going for a car ride. They are all crate trained and feel that their crate is their special place, so the doors are always open for them to have their alone/rest time when they want to after play time (if they are not trying to claim a spot on the couch or in the recliner). One especially likes the couch and the others love to sleep in bed at night.

Information Dawn A. would like to know about your pet

Knowing if a pet has special needs or a specific routine is very important. They have needs, likes and dislikes just like we do. Keeping their lives on the schedule that they are used to makes them more comfortable during the absence of their fur parents.

A typical day

I love the special adventures of walking in the park with dogs. We both get to enjoy a different environment apart from the day to day home activities. A spontaneous car ride to get doggie ice cream is also fun after a round of ball or Frisbee in the yard.

DAWNA60239 My profile: https://www.rover.com/sit/dawna60239 I have taken care of dogs since I was in my early teens. In addition, through the years, I have also been a pet parent to a horse, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, tropical fish, goldfish, and hamsters. Family and friends routinely ask me for pet care advice since I have had pets for so many years and trained my own puppies through self teaching. I also have experience administering medications.

Dawn is an amazing sitter. We have two dogs one of which is older and on many meds. Dawn was able to navigate their needs without a flaw. Our dogs love Dawn and so do we. I would highly recommend booking with Dawn. Ang and Tom Jordan

Dawn was so great to work with! She was patient and kind when our dog was a bit homesick on the first night. She was awesome with giving us daily, detailed updates and pictures. We appreciate our experience and would rebook.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
