I got this!! You enjoy!

Hi there, my name is Dawna. I have been in animal care for more than 35 years. I adore all animals. Even the slithery ones!! I love to visit with them, and love to play!! I am very comfortable in reacting to emergencies. I have had a very extensive background check through Grand Junction Police Dept in order to become a 911 dispatch employee. I am very skilled in taking care of your loved ones. I can administer meds, and care for high risk animals. I even have a cousin that is a vet here in GJ, so I'm pretty covered for all emergencies. I adore them all. I'd sure love to meet you and your family. Please send me a message and we can set up a time to meet. I can't wait!! Sounds like the perfect job for me!!!

Doggy Day Care • Apr 21, 2026

Dawna was wonderful with Scout. I needed someone to watch her on short notice and Dawna did not disappoint. Scout loved being with her and I knew my dog was in good hands. I would recommend Dawna to anyone needing their fur baby to be cared for.

Dawna is wonderful and you should feel complete comfort in leaving you 4 legged fur babies with her. She goes out of her way to make sure the pup has fun while in her care and has lots of love to give. I would recommend her without question!

Dawna did great watching our boy for the weekend. She was very prompt, attentive, and we were able to enjoy our time away without a worry in the world.
