I work from home running my business, so dogs are always by my side and never left alone. They’re part of my day—greeting clients with affection, enjoying playtime in my fenced backyard oasis, and relaxing indoors as part of the family.

About Dawn S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets, I focus on maintaining their comfort, routine, and happiness. I’m very attentive to dogs’ cues. If a dog signals they need to go out, wants attention, or needs reassurance, I respond promptly. I adjust care as needed so each dog feels safe, comfortable, and at ease in my home. For the safety of all pets and people in my home, I reserve the right to decline or discontinue care if a dog is not a safe or appropriate fit.

Information Dawn S. would like to know about your pet
I like to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, energy level, feeding schedule, and any medical needs. It’s also helpful to know what makes them happiest and how they do with people, other small dogs, and new environments so I can provide the best possible care. Please confirm the following: • Your dog is up to date on age-appropriate core vaccinations, including rabies • Your dog is on current flea and tick prevention • Any history of anxiety, reactivity, aggression, or destructive behavior • Your dog’s daily routine, feeding schedule, and energy level
A typical day
Dogs enjoy playtime in my fenced backyard, splashing in the pool on warm days, running freely, relaxing indoors, and socializing with my mini-doodle and humans. Whether it’s play, cuddles, or quiet companionship, each dog’s day is tailored to what makes them happiest.

Pet care experience
I have owned a dog since I was 12 and I have always treated my dogs as though they were my best friend. Most recently I have the luxury to take my dogs to work since I own a business doing hair, photography and modeling. I decided to extend my love to babysitting dogs. I have fostered a puppy and fell in love with how I made a difference in such a short period. I have two daughters that bring friends home all the time which gives lots of personal interaction. My backyard is an oasis for any dog wishing to play in a pool or run wild in a fenced yard. Your dogs will be around people and have my mini-doodle to play with. Ideal Fit for My Home: I’m best suited for dogs who are comfortable in a home environment, enjoy being around people, and can settle calmly indoors. Because my home is social and interactive, I do best with dogs who are friendly, non-aggressive, and comfortable around other dogs and people. To ensure the best experience for everyone, I require a meet & greet for all first-time stays.
