Dog Mum ~ WFH & Loves Animals! 🐾

Hi there! I’m a devoted animal lover with a calm and caring nature, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds! I’ve had both dogs & cats my whole life (also a couple of bunnies, hamsters, & birds🙃). I have an 14 year old son who absolutely loves animals! We have a 15 1/2 year old Cocker Spaniel, and my best friend who lives next door has a 3 year old boxer/husky mix who comes over almost every day. 😊 I know just how much love, attention, and fun our furry besties need and deserve! 💗 I’d be thrilled to have the chance to get to know your fur baby & become part of their day. I take pride in noticing the little things that make each dog unique, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved—just like they do with your family! 😍 Whether it’s playtime, a stroll through the neighborhood, or simply some comforting company, I’m here to keep your pet’s (young or old!) tail wagging. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and ensure your furry family member(s) are safe & happy while you’re away!

Dayna was amazing! Atlas is a very anxious boy and is especially scared of men, so I was nervous about leaving him with a sitter. She was incredibly patient, giving him the time and space he needed to settle in and feel comfortable. She also sent daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her communication and care truly helped ease my nerves. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Dayna is a true dog person. Upon entering her home and meeting with her I knew my dog was in excellent hands. Dayna took such good care of my girl and sent regular updates. I didn't worry for a second when my dog was with her. Dayna is friendly, kind, and will take perfect care of your dog and make sure they have such a good time. It was like summer camp for my pup. Thank you, Dayna!

Dayna was great with our pup and sent pics of him having fun during his stay! Dayna was great at dispensing his meds and supplements while he was there. Thank you!

Dayna was a wonderful sitter! Holly immediately felt at ease which helped us to choose her. While we were away she kept in touch with daily updates and texts. I will totally use her again and can’t recommend her enough!

She took my booking request with a days notice for my two large dogs and did such a great job updating me and my dogs were very well taken care of.

Schedule

I work from home with a flexible schedule which allows me the availability to help pet parents when they aren’t able to get home to their pets, need a loving temporary home while traveling, or just a drop-in visit or walk, and lots of loves. 🥰

Safety, trust & environment

I care for every animal as if they were my own -with lots of love, attention, and gentle care. I love every breed - some breeds I’ve owned include a Chihuahua, Labs, Golden Retrievers, Beagles, a Sheepdog, and a Bull Mastiff (who was the friendliest of all!!), as well as multiple mixed breeds, and currently a Cocker Spaniel. 🐶 Your pet will be well-fed, clean, comforted, and truly looked after while you’re away. If I’m sitting or dropping in at your home, I take pride in keeping things tidy and cared for, always aiming to leave things just as nice, or even better than I found them. Your pet’s happiness and your peace of mind are my top priorities! 😊

Pets

A typical day

I provide a safe and loving environment and offer space to run & play. I have a 14 yo son who’s grown up with my 15 yo Cocker Spaniel, as well as my beautiful cat who sadly left us a couple of years ago - so the energy level is there when needed, and calm when appropriate! We adore animals and engaging in lots of healthy & stimulating playtime. 😊
