Live, Love, and 💗 more Dogs & Cats

Currently in grad school and I love being around animals especially dogs and cats! I have experience dog sitting as well as cat sitting (even for birds, bunnies, and reptiles). I have experience taking care of puppies and senior dogs. I would love the opportunity to be able to meet more dogs and cats and take care of them! I would look out for the dog's best interest. I also had a dog, Maximus, who was 14 years old (passed away 3/2022) and love him a lot. I liked to go on walks and run with my dog in the park. I spent time playing with him and giving him baths. I would do the same with other dogs if they are capable to do so.

Dayanara is always great and my cats like her. I had an emergency and needed to extend the booking and she adjusted without issue and even brought in my garbage cans. Thank you!!

Dayanara was so helpful and was able to watch our dog, Ginger, for a last minute booking. She sent updates, included photos, throughout each day. It was good to know that Ginger was being cared for while we were away. This was our second booking with her and we hope to use her services again in the future.

Dayanara did a home stay at my apartment and took care of my dog while I was out of town. She kept me updated every day and left my house better than how I left it! My doorman even told me how nice she was. Penny was well taken care of and was a happy pup when I got home.

Dayanara took wonderful care of our dog over the holidays! She kept us up to date each day and gave us a lot of comfort knowing our pup was in good hands. She even made a DIY dog coat for our pup when it snowed, which was very thoughtful and adorable.

Nothing but good praises for Dayanara's services in stopping by to make sure my cats are taken care of while we are away on vacation. Can gladly say we have no anxiety at all knowing she's the one to take care of them. Thanks again Dayanara!

Leaving another five star review to thank Dayanara for her services. She did an amazing job giving us peace of mind for our two cats while we were away for a couple weeks on vacation. She double checked our automated water and feeder were always topped up, and went out of her way to make sure our automatic vacuum was seated properly in it's dock. I haven't trusted anyone else on any platform to watch my cats for the past few years and we're beyond lucky she was still available this past month. Thanks Dayanara!
