Next Best Thing to Being Home

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs for several years and been around dogs my entire life. I've trained from the puppy stage through adulthood, including caring for senior pets. I love dogs and want to make sure your pet has a safe and comfortable stay while you are away. My small dog loves all dogs and would love a playmate! We do have a cat, too but she is pretty much an observer of her surroundings and does her own thing. I am comfortable administering medications, if needed. While I don't have a fenced yard, I am used to taking my dog out on a leash and for walks regularly. Your dog will love staying with us so much they might not want to go home.

Dawn took such great care of our pups again for a week of drop by visits and administered all of their meds - they were well taken care of!!

Dawn was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for better. Always on time, and treated our fur babies like her own! While we were gone she even helped gather the mail and straightened up when the dogs got the zoomies. We will definitely use her again.

Dawn was very responsive and went above and beyond to take care of Moe and Roman while we were away. It’s hard to leave our boys but knowing they are in good hands brings me peace of mind. Thank you, Dawn! Highly recommend and would definitely rebook.
