Highlights
Pet care experience
Small dogs/special care/lotsa love
I love dogs! Big dogs, small dogs, hairy dogs, bald dogs, I love ‘‘em all. And I love taking extra good care of them. When they stay with me, they are guests in my home, encouraged to snuggle on the furniture, sleep in the bed, given treats (as allowed by parents), walked twice a day, and taken outside to play in my small fenced in yard. I am a retired social worker, so have been a caregiver for a long time. I have a certificate from the Catch Dog Training school, and volunteered for a number of years at the Dog Shelter. Come visit for a meet and greet when you want a home away from home for your fur baby. I also provide short-term daycare for one dog at a time.

Ratings and reviews
Dawn took wonderful care of my older dog, Penny. She made sure Penny received all of her medications and kept me updated throughout her stay with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Penny was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed her time with Dawn. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!
Dawn gave Rigby excellent care, gave us updates and treated Rigby like her own.
Dawn was excellent! Her dog is so sweet and got along with my dog quickly.
Dawn was amazing for my first experience with Rover! She set up a meet and greet in advance for our dogs to meet and make sure everyone was comfortable. She kept me updated with how my dog was doing and even sent pictures. Would definitely recommend.
Dawn made our Cavapoo’s first stay away from family wonderful! She was very accommodating and was patient with our dog, Lily, as she got settled in. Dawn was very good about sending updates which kept my mind at ease. We would definitely book with her again in the future! Thanks, Dawn!
Dawn was fantastic! She provided daily updates on my dachshund Henry so I knew he was in good hands. She cared for Henry as though he was her own dog. Would definitely rebook with Dawn.

Schedule
I tailor my schedule.as much as possible to the dogs’ needs. I have a fur baby of my own that I spend as much time as I can with.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I check for medication instruction, always use a leash, follow any special care instructions. I stick to a schedule, hold and comfort frightened dogs, and never raise my voice.
Pets
A typical day
We go to the dog park, and walk around the neighborhood twice a day. Also have playtime, snuggle time, and nap time as requested by the dog.
