Pet care experience

All my pals have paws!

I have experience with both cats and dogs, mostly in my personal life. I took two of my pups through levels 1 and 2 puppy training classes, which gave me sime insights on how dogs respond to us as humans. I can administer medications as prescribed if needed. I have no preference, big or small, woof or meow. I love them all.

Dawn took such great care of our pup, Sandy, despite Sandy's separation anxiety at her first time away from home.

Dawn was fantastic! She kept our anxious doggo happy and healthy while we were gone. So grateful!

We rarely travel without our dog, and because she has had separation anxiety in the past, I was a little nervous about leaving her. I need not have worried at all. Our dog had a wonderful stay with Dawn! Dawn is very experienced and read our dog’s energy right away, helping her feel comfortable and at ease. She got plenty of walks and belly rubs, and the photos Dawn sent showed just how relaxed and happy she was—which allowed me to fully enjoy my trip. I highly recommend boarding your dog with Dawn.

Dawn took great care of Sandy! She’s an animal lover and did lots of extra nice things to help make Sandy feel comfortable. I loved getting daily updates that included lots of pictures. We were glad that Sandy was there while we were away.

Dawn was amazing with my high energy Boxer!! I received many updates throughout the weekend, which I appreciated so much. She took her on multiple walks each day, spent lots of time just loving on her, and took care of her as if she were her own. I felt so relieved the entire weekend knowing Remi was with such a loving and attentive caretaker. I hope to use Dawn again in the future!
