I work from home (WFH) full-time, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can generally shift meetings to care for your pet so we don't have to interrupt their regular routine!

Safety, trust & environment
I always take the time to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me by taking things at their pace. Locked doors are always double-triple-checked to ensure no escapes.
Information Dawn B. would like to know about your pet
**If we haven't worked together before, I require a free 20-minute meet & greet to ensure that your pet is comfortable with me and that I understand and can fulfill your expectations and their care requirements. Please note: if your dog reactive to strangers entering the home, I may request an initial supervised drop-in(s) to ensure I can safely enter the home to provide care. How does your pup interact with other dogs and people? I am comfortable with all dog breeds, however, if your dog is over 40 lbs I do ask that they be fully leash trained and non-reactive. I understand and am comfortable with different dog behaviors, but I am petite so larger reactive dogs are not a good fit.
A typical day

Pet care experience
Hello there, I'm Dawn, a lover of all animals - whether they have fur, feathers, or scales! I've been pet-sitting professionally since 2015 and would love to take care of your pet. 🐾Dog & cat first aid certified 🐾Licensed w/ Menifee city 🐾Background checked 🐾Insured w/ PCI I'm professional, reliable, and highly experienced in caring for nervous, shy, anxious, or reactive pets. I have three rescued dogs (+two rescued snakes, +one rescued crested gecko) and understand that some animals need space/may never trust people and to take things slow. (Please note: For safety and liability reasons, I do not work with dogs with any nipping tendencies or history of biting. I am, however, confident with reactive dogs who are in training and no bite history; I may request multiple meetings to ensure they become comfortable with me.) 🐢I'm also heavily experienced with small animal care, birds, and reptiles (e.g. bearded dragons, geckos, snakes, tortoises, turtles).🦎 When you trust your pet to my care, I happily update you with detailed report cards and plenty of pictures following our visit to reassure you they're doing great!

Reviews
Dawn took wonderful care of our cat while we were away on vacation. Our cat is usually pretty shy around new people, but she quickly warmed up to Dawn, which says a lot. Dawn took great care of her while we were away, making sure her food and water were always fresh, the litter box was kept clean, and she got plenty of playtime and attention during each visit. She was dependable, kind, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our girl was in such good hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Dawn again. Highly recommend!
We love Dawn . She is the best 💜
The best ever.
Dawn has such great attention to detail from the meet and greet and day of service! She took notes, made sure she full understood each of our pets quirks and needs and did an exceptional job! She sends amazing feedback and photos. My dog and cats loved her and felt comfortable with her right away. I will definitely be a returning customer! :)
