Fur Momma to 2 Spoiled babies

Pet care experience

I have had dogs all my life. For several years I fostered dogs in my home. I was the VP of the Young Friends Board of the Humane Society for about 5 years. Currently I volunteer and plan events for The Second Chance Ranch which is a rescue for senior dogs. I have raised both puppies and rescues. I had a Sheltie for 17 years who was deaf, so I am familiar with taking care of the impaired.

When we first arrived Dawn’s sweet Lab Bailey greeted us and reassured me My pup would be well looked after! I think he even smiled at me. Dawn communicated with me daily and I so appreciated that. She’s a dog mom she gets it! Doggie parents you will quickly be comfortable with her!

Dawn and her family are wonderful caregivers. We got photos every day and Bella was very happy with the attention she got. We highly recommend Dawn!

Dawn was excellent with our two dogs. She has a very relaxed environment for dogs and by the pictures we received daily, they felt very comfortable. I would highly recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door. I usually take my yellow lab on a walk or hike everyday. I live by quite a few trails. Bailey is 7, and pretty laid back and chill, but a big girl weighing in at 115lbs. She is used to having other dogs around. I also just rescued a 5 year old Sheltie named Rusty, he is shy and keeps to himself, but very sweet and chill.

Information Dawn G. would like to know about your pet

The information that’s most important for me to know is if your fur baby has any food/toy/animal and/or human aggression. Knowing their likes, dislikes, fears, and what makes them feel safe is Vital to a great relationship between us! Is the dog house trained or kennel trained? Do you and your dog prefer your dog to sleep in bed with someone or in a kennel? I don't crate the dog unless the owner asks me to do so. Additional $10 cleaning charge may be added for each in house "accident" up to $50 per stay.

A typical day

We will go on walks, either around the neighborhood or to one of the many hiking trails around me. Castlewood, Al Foster, Vance Trail. If they like to play with toys, we will throw the ball, or chase sticks, play with stuffies, all depends on what they like
