WFH doodle owner / dog lover

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs and cats since I was a young child and have taken care of others’ pets both at their homes and at my home for overnights, daycare and walking/play dates since 2008. My almost 2yo mini golden doodle is very friendly and affectionate and loves other dogs/cats/humans. I live in a wooded condo community with lots of other dogs and lots of green / wooded outdoor space and near the trails at Dartmouth Hitchcock. My dog is leashed and yours will be too. My house is cozy and dogs/cats are welcome on furniture. I am flexible and can do training with your dog by request.

Deana has been fantastic looking after Athena. She asked for lots of details about Athena and cares for her very well. Athena loves playing and cuddling with Luna. Deana has helped ease Athena’s upset tummy. She takes the dogs out for walks often and potty breaks when needed. Highly recommend, Athena loves going there.

I would highly recommend Deana for your pet sitting needs! She’s been a big part of my dog’s life for the past 5 years and she and her dog Luna make mine feel right at home when we visit (Luna has the best temperament!). Her neighborhood has nice walking trails and she frequently will take 30-60 min walks. Deana is a reliable and structured person; if your pet needs to stick to a routine she’d be highly capable of attending to those needs. Deana is outgoing and friendly to both people and animals; I’m sure she would put you and your pet at ease!

I have known Deana her whole life and can testify to what a kind, caring and compassionate person she is. Deana and my daughters are like sisters. They grew up together in the same neighborhood, and continue to spend holidays together. Animals have always been a part of "our" neighborhood, from dogs and cats to horses, pigs, goats and everything in between. With animals comes a shared network of pet sitting between friends. So we did our share of that over the years. Deana has been there for me. She has dog sat for me numerous times, with never a worry on my part. I feel she has an intuitive sense about animals, probably because she has been around them her whole life. My dogs are totally at ease with her, even my lab who is reactive and anxious. She can put him at ease. Deana is dependable. If she says she'll be there, she is. My dogs love her and know she loves them. Time has come full circle. I now get to see my daughters and Deana enjoying their own furry friends. Of course, all animal lovers must have one. So I guess that is another testament to the animal lover in Deana, she immediately got her own dog, but not until the time was right and she could care for her the RIGHT way. Thank you Deana for being there for me.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is cozy and very pet friendly. Pets are allowed on my furniture and I typically have Alexa play calm my dog music during the day to promote a calm and safe environment. My goal is to ensure that your dog feels secure and confident whether we are in the house or out on walks on leash. I prefer positive reinforcement training (with lots of treats) but I also have experience using behavioral devices including bark collars for dogs with special needs.

Information Deana D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any allergies, aversions or fears, medication needs, or other needs. Generally, I do not provide services to large / XL breeds because I do not feel/safe confident walking them on a leash. If you have a fenced in back yard, I will consider it and o it after a meet and greet.

A typical day

I love to follow a dog’s lead, whether that is playing fetch with a ball, frisbee, tug, hide n seek, or letting them explore a toy stuffed with their favorite treats.
