Pet care experience

Pet sitter professionally for 10+ years. 7 years daycare experience outside of my home, but a pet lover since forever! Grew up with chihuahuas, german shepherds, lizards, rabbits, and birds. I provide a safe loving home for your babies to have a home away from home. Whether its just for the day while you're at work or the weekend or longer for a much-needed vacation. I come with experience in feeding all types of pets, administering medication, light grooming, and required walks. I love all animals have always had a special place in my hearts for dogs and cats. I have 2 shi-Tzu of my own 14-year-old Chomper and his daughter Baby who is the baby of our house, and the sweetest of cats named Crona . All 3 love play dates & sleepovers. You can call or video chat with your furry babies whenever you feel the need or just missing your furry baby. Further, I have personal transportation available.

Dawn was a ray of sunshine!! She took perfect care of our pup. She sent updates and photos. He had a ball and slept all night long. I know he had a fun day. She cared for him with such care as if he were her own. We will absolutely be using her services again. Thank you dawn
