Experienced & Compassionate

Pet care experience

I have my bachelor of science in Animal Science and have trained and worked for veterinary & animal industry professionals for over a decade and been a pet parent my entire life. Well-versed in diverse companion animal species from dogs, cats, horses, parrots, ferrets, hedgehogs - even reptiles. Also have extense farm management and farm animal experience. I cater to the individual personality of your pet, my goal is to make them feel like they are at a mini vacation of their very own. Large or small, young or old, I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. Whether you need help letting your dog out mid-day or staying with them while you are away - I am your gal.

Absolutely wonderful! Dawn has a degree and vast experience with animal care. Her home, large yard, and the neighborhood are quiet, safe and perfect for boarding a pet. Dawn's dog Dean is very well mannered and gentle. Dawn kept us posted with updates and some photos regarding our dogs stay. My dog is a young sheltie and he can be a handful. We noticed when we got him home that his coat looked better than usual, it had been combed-out a lot (shelties have thick coats). Dawn must have gotten a pillow worth of fur off him. Strongly recommend!

Dawn has been my roommate for almost a year now. Her dog Dean is the most well taken care of good boy I’ve met which is why I 182million percent trusted her to watch my fur child, Luke, whenever I’m stuck at work later than planned or out of town. I definitely recommend Dawn for any of your dog watching, walking or playing needs!

Information Dawn R. would like to know about your pet

I accept all breeds and temperments of dogs with proof of rabies vaccination. If I am kenneling your dog in my own home, they must be friendly with other dogs. I can chill with the slouchiest of couch potatoes as easily as play with a high energy dog - I spent a good part of my adult life working with herding dogs on a dairy farm.
