Pet care experience
Pet Parent's Helper 🐾 🥰
Do you have an adult or senior dog, and you just need an extra hand sometimes? I recently lost my two loves to age and chronic disease. Some days were really hard. Keeping up with meds. Trying to get them to eat. Making sure they got frequent enough potty breaks, or the inevitable accidents because getting older makes control just a little more difficult. I'd like to help. When our babies get old, sometimes those are the sweetest years that we'll get to spend with them, but it's also a lot of work. I can help by checking in on your dog. I can help feed them, or make sure they get their meds, or give them an extra potty break. Do you need an extra set of hands to help give them a bath or a nail trim? Are there other tasks you just don't have time or ability to do? I can help. I have a lifetime of experience caring for pets. From my own cats, dogs and even a pony, to nearly 10 years in the boarding and daycare business, I have experience with caring for hundreds of pets. Each one of them with unique personalities and needs. I have experience with all ages of pets, including seniors and those who need special care. I understand when your pet may need extra time, patience, and attention. I am also trained in pet first-aid and CPR. Because we are now a dogless family :( , I can now open my home to some pups, as long as they're okay around cats (including a spicy kitten.) Weekend daycare (with fun outings if you like!) and boarding is now available in addition to my drop in visits. HOUSE RULES: Because we do have two kitties and full-time jobs, all boarding dogs must be crate trained should we need to separate them, or during work. This is for everyone's safety. Dogs will never be crated more than 4 hours at a time. We only accept dogs who are cat friendly.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I had a wonderful experience with Deanna. She was flexible and communicative and took wonderful care of my older dog. Pearl can be a little shy and nervous but she had a wonderful time and was clearly so comfortable right away. Would absolutely stay with her again!
I was able to secure a boarding with these folks last minute over a holiday weekend. They were very good.
I’ve known Deanna for many years now. First as a coworker, then as a true friend. Not only is Deanna a very responsible and trustworthy person, but her vibrant personality, true love for animals, and caring nature are just some of the reasons that make her great! She has two beautiful dogs that adore her and who are loved more than anything! Our pets are like our children, and if anyone understands that, it’s Deanna.
Deanna has taken care of our furry family members for years. She shows true interest in each of them and their individual personalities. We have always felt confident the dogs are in good hands and our pups love her! I would definitely recommend Deanna as a pet sitter😊
I have known Dena for about 12-13 years. She has taken excellent care of my Echo dawg! Dena is super caring and pays great attention to details. You couldn’t find a better pet sitter!!!

Schedule
I do work in an office Monday through Friday, however in my evenings and weekends I am committed to the love and care of your pet. I am able to stop back home mid-day, so your pet will never go more than 4 hours without a potty break. My services are ideal if you work an evening shift, or have long workdays, or are planning to be away from home for extended hours on the weekend.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
For boarding and day care, my home is their home. We allow dogs on the furniture (unless you don't and then we'll day consistent with your rules.) New dogs must be crate-trained and will be crated when left unattended. We have a xl crate, so plenty of room for comfort. For drop-in visits, I know your home is your sanctuary and will treat it as such. Please outline any rules or limitations you may have for visiting your pet.

A typical day
A typical stay totally depends on your pet. What do they enjoy doing with their humans? We can play, cuddle, or just relax. It's really up to you!
