loving & responsible care

Pet care experience

I'd love to come by and watch your dogs at your house or apartment. I have stayed in homes with chihuahuas, pitbulls, mastiffs, kittens, birds, and all kinds of pets. I have also given oral meds and insulin injections to dogs and cats. I have had my business, Dawn's Pet Care Extraordinaire for over 5 years now. I love dogs and have had them for most of my 40+ years. My husband and I have 45lb dog, 75 lb dog, and a 95lb mixed breed dogs that we spoil, they're all young. We love the outdoors and take our dogs on walks, runs, canoeing, to the park and everything else. My youngest Chunk and I are a therapy team volunteering at OSF. I have taken dog & cat first aid and CPR through the Red Cross and I have insurance and bonding of my own too!

I can highly recommend Dawn to anyone looking for a dedicated and professional dog sitter. I had booked Doogy Day care with her and, since I was a new client, Dawn took extra time for a meet and greet at both my and her place. I appreciated the forms with questions that she had prepared to make sure she understands the needs and challenges of my dog. I also appreciated that Dawn sent a photo update during the Day Care and was flexible about the drop off time when I returned back to Peoria a little later. All in all a great experience and I look forward to hiring Dawn again.

Dawn did really great. She came prepared with papers for us to fill out at the meet n greet and she took really good care of our dogs. I know, because she sent pictures with updates and our dogs weren't that excited to see us when we got home (a really good thing)! Thanks Dawn :)

Information Dawn R. would like to know about your pet

I love medium to big dogs, but small dogs have a special place in my heart too. Corgis have always made me smile, they're so darn cute and most of my mutts have had some corgi in them.

A typical day

I love the outdoors! Dog walks are my favorite thing! and if your dog is a runner we could even go for short runs! I'm not a huge fan of hot weather so we'd probably be staying in during the heat of the day (90+) or go to a wooded trail like the rock island trail! I'm an active person so if your dog is up for it we'll go for plenty of walks and play. If not we can lounge.
