When you have to be away, I want to provide a compassionate space for your four legged family member to be cared for. I understand how much dogs and cats add to our lives and how they deserve the best we can give them. And next to you, I am the best. I hold a work ethic that allows you to rely on me to provide for your pet and get their needs met. I can stay at your home, drop in, or open my home.

We’re so glad that Dawn was able to stay in our home and care for our pups. They were happy and well cared-for. Dawn’s communication was excellent and she clearly has a way with dogs. Can’t recommend enough!

Dawn did a fantastic job housesitting our two pups! They were happy and so well taken care of and the house looked great. She sent pictures and updates every day. We will absolutely have Dawn watch our dogs again!

We were on vacation for a week and we were anxious about how our 8 month old puppy would do without us. However after meeting Dawn and her dogs I was fully confident and was able to relax. She made quick friends with her dogs and instantly settled in. I couldn't recommend her more!

Dawn and Don are great! They have a special area for pets in their cozy home that looks like a retreat! Maksimilian was so content in their house while I was gone. They took fantastic care of my elderly pup.

Dawn and Don took such great care of my dog Reggie! He is medically complex and they were wonderful, I felt very comfortable leaving him in their care. Loved getting lots of picture updates too!

Pets
