Pet care experience

Are you seeking compassionate care for your pup? I specialize in providing dedicated care for senior dogs, tailored to their unique needs. I am also open to caring for younger pups and/or cats. 🐶 About Me: With experience caring for my diabetic dog, Cody, I understand the importance of attentive care and patience. Unfortunately, we recently had to put our Cody boy down due to old age and diabetes. I am now open for dog walking, drop-ins, boarding and in-home care. 🩺 Specialized Care: Whether your pup requires medication, insulin shots every twelve hours, or a gentle hand, I'm here to provide the attention and assistance they need. 📞 Contact: Reach out today to discuss your dog's needs and schedule a meet-and-greet!

Dawn was amazing. She agreed to watch my dog with very short notice and was so communicative prior and throughout his stay with her. She sent lots of pictures and kept me updated on their day, which eased my worries and let me focus on my work day while getting sweet updates and cute pics. Will definitely be asking Dawn to watch my sweet boy Lincoln again!!

Our active pup has gotten some great walks with Dawn! She is a good communicator and definitely tires her out.
