Pet care experience

Lover of all breeds 🐕‍🦺🐩🐕

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.

Once again Dawn took wonderful care of our 3 dogs. She followed all instructions for their care. They love being with her. She is always punctual, an excellent communicator and reliable. The house was clean and tidy upon our return. We highly recommend Dawn to anyone!

Dawn is always amazing! She’s watched our dogs quite a few times now. She gives us frequent updates and leaves our house clean and the dogs happy. We can tell they absolutely love her!

Dawn was wonderful again. Remy loves her and is totally comfortable which being reserved with strangers is huge. Dawn is very easy to work with when changes have occurred ( late flights, etc). The house was immaculate, mail picked up and so on. Highly recommended!!!

Dawn was wonderful again. Her attention to detail; caring for our treasured pet, watering the garden, collecting mail, always leaving our home spotlessly clean is second to none.

Schedule

I do work full time in office as an interior designer & architect as my career job. 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!

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.
