Information Deanna L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors to keep an eye on. I prefer dogs who are potty trained; please bring belly bands / diapers if accidents are common. Whatever I can do to make your dog comfortable in my home, please let me know. It is my goal to provide a loving and stress-free environment. Feel free to bring a special blanket or bed, toys, treats, and/or whatever else your pup needs to feel at ease.

A typical day

I love playing with dogs in my fenced-in yard and taking lots of walks around the neighborhood or visiting nearby dog parks. Cuddles with belly rubs and couch time is important too. ;)

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Deanna! I’m a lifelong animal lover and 25+ year dog/cat mom. I currently have two friendly small dogs and two extremely dog-friendly cats. I’ve fostered dogs of all ages and sizes through local rescues and have been dog sitting for friends & family for many years - I’ve even taken care of snakes and lizards! I have personal experience with senior dogs who might need an extra loving hand. I have a safe and secure fenced back yard to play and relax in. Contact me to set up a meet & greet or with questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your special pup!

Deanna took excellent care of Indy! She sent me pics and videos of how Indy was speding his day with her and her two dogs (going for a walk or playing in the snow). Deanna was flexible and easy to communicate with. Thank you, Deanna, for taking care of my boy!

My dog Libby just LOVES going for walks with Deanna! Deanna treats her like she is one of her own fur babies; she sends lots of pictures of their adventures out together and is very flexible with booking times. Libby and I are so happy we found such a great person to stand in for me!

Deanna was awesome in every way: great caretaker for my young energetic pug; a very good communicator; asked questions about Kiley's care, needs and behaviors; made me feel like Kiley was safe and well cared for; sent pictures and answered questions that i had. I would use her again if i could:)

Thank you Deanna for taking good care of Indy! Deanna sent me pictures, videos and updates of how Indy was doing. It gave me the peace of mind while going on a family vacation! Indy enjoyed his time with his new friends! Until next time! Thanks again!
