Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was very young. Neighbors, friends, family which quickly turned in to reference after reference. I’ve taken care of dogs with medical issues or those that need special care. Walks, play, baths - you name it, I can and would love to do it. Other household animals like bunnies, gerbals/hampsters, etc I've watched several times. I also have experience with Farm Animals! Horses, chickens, goats, hogs, etc Fun Fact, I even raised 4 hogs during my senior year of high school! I'm not afraid of getting dirty.
Reviews
Dawn did a wonderful job house sitting with our pup, Carson. She had excellent communication and left our house in great shape. We’d definitely book her again!
It was wonderful meeting Dawn for the first time. She is knowledgeable, kind and prompt. Dawn strives to understand your pets ‘normal’ day to ensure that they are comfortable during your time away.
Dawn was amazing! She cared for our 2 horses and 2 dogs, one of which is diabetic. Would definitely recommend Dawn.
Amazing pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment
I’ve experienced all types of behaviors with dogs. In your home, I will make sure to keep a tidy and clean space. Make sure I follow your rules for me and your pet.
Information Dawn P. would like to know about your pet
It's important to know their behaviors during all times. Are they okay with new people? Do they do well on walks? How to they react with other dogs or people on walks? Do they play well? Are there any triggers that can make then angry or a bit aggressive? Are they more of relaxed dog that doesn't like much walking or play time? The more I know the better experience I can provide. I'll meet and greet with all breeds, and have experience with leash and dog reactive/aggressive pets. For house sitting info it's important to know what other responsibilities are required during the stay. For example, watering plants, lawn care, household upkeep, etc.
A typical day
I'll play fetch or tug of war with your dog, what ever their favorite game is to play. And if they don't like those, then I'll play or run around with them to get that energy out! Walking, running, or just playing. Whatever your dog needs in the way of fun activities, I'll provide it. I walk in all weather, as long as it's safe to do so. I can walk around the neighborhood, trails, or light hikes. If I'm house sitting as well, cuddling with you pup is guaranteed!

Availability
I do work as an interior designer & architect as my career job. I just recently accepted a new job, that unfortunately does require me to be in the office full time. So if your animals are okay being left during a 9-5, I'm the perfect fit. I will make sure that when I am home with your animals that they receive extra love and attention from me! For walking and drop ins, I'm available on weekends and most evenings, just ask! I love being able to travel and see new spaces around me and also meeting new pups. I love taking dogs on walks, so knowing any good trails or light hikes near your house that is friendly to your dog would be great!
