Highlights
Pet care experience
Specialize in older, small dogs
My dogs are family! I have 4 small dogs; Mufasa, Ozzie, Vinnie and our newest member of the family Ginger. One girls and three boys, they are spayed/neutered. They are the loves of my life, my companions and friends and they love fur baby visitors. I will treat your furry family the same. I have been through professional obedience training with my dogs and I am first aid and CPR certified. I do not charge additional fees for medications or walking your pet while in my care. You will have the peace of mind knowing your beloved family is in the comfort of my home receiving one on one care. I limit the amount of dogs I board at any one time. My daycare and boarding fur babies are screened for behavior, shot records and overall health. It is important to me that they not only are comfortable with me but they know that someone is there for them. If signs of anxiety appear, I find taking them for a long walk, playing with them and playing music helps. While your pet’s in my care I enjoy sending daily photos. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! ⭐️⭐️ I require your pets to be up to date on all their shots.

Ratings and reviews
Wonderful experience! Dawn and her husband are amazing. It was our first time boarding with Dawn and we are beyond pleased. We have 2 old pups, one requiring really special 1:1 care at times. Dawn is very kind and caring, it’s clear she loves animals. She went out of her way to accommodate our little old „lady” and to make her comfortable. I can’t say thank you enough. I Highly recommended! Thank you Dawn 🙏💕
Dawn provides the best of care in her home. My little dogs are treated like her own and they do well there. And I love the pictures and updates. I always check with Dawn before booking a trip- she’s the Best.
5 stars doesn’t even come close!!! Dawn and her family were amazing to our pup. They loved and spoiled her even more than we do (and that is a tough to do).Lilly made herself very comfortable!! Dawn’s communication was excellent, with lots of photos, video and updates. Dawn’s home is super clean, safe and perfect for dogs. I was so reassured to have Lilly stay with Dawn, my mind was totally at ease, knowing Lilly was in the best possible hands. Dawn will be my first choice for all my dog sitting sessions.
Dawn was amazing! Lilly was pampered and loved to the max. She took to the whole family easily, including all the family pups. We will definitely be back.
Thank you for your great care of Ojito . Sending the pictures was really nice and I was happy to hear the updates . In talking with you we can tell you really care about your dogs and other peoples. I’ll definitely use you again if we come thru Tucson.
Dawn loves our pups like her own. From cuddles and play to health, she’s very in tune with their needs and keeps subsidiaries while we are gone. She’s the best!

Schedule
I’m retired so I am home to care for your precious fur baby(ies). Daycare and boarding are provided in my home. I have 4 loving fur babies of my own who love company. Careful screening is a must. I require a meet and greet prior to accepting your puppy in my home. I will care for dogs up to 25 pounds.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have 4 fur babies of my own. All of them get along famously with other dogs. We have a completely walled in yard, a doggie door leading to a secured side yard. Our dogs are allowed on the furniture and in our bed. Three love their crates and one sleeps in her doggie beds. We also have a pool should your dog enjoy swimming. The pool is only accessible if we allow the dogs in that area of the yard. Clients have referred to our home and yard as a puppy paradise.

A typical day
The most important part of caring for your furry family is that you’re comfortable with me. I have over 45 years experience in owning and caring for pets and I’m CPR and first-aid certified through the American Red Cross. I have successfully completed professional obedience training with my own pets. This training assists me in caring for and keeping your family safe while in my care. I find meeting with you before accepting care to be so important. This way, we can find out if we’re a fit. I’m confident that my love for pets and my skills will shine through and you’ll be happy to hire me. Looking forward to a long lasting relationship with you and your family.
