Pet care experience

Playful and passionate pup care!

It could be argued that I prefer dogs to people most of the time with my own dog, Honey, being top of that furry list! I have been a dog (and general animal) lover as long as I can remember and I have been caring for family and friends' dogs since I was a teenager. I truly believe they are part of the family and should be treated as such. From check ins to extended stays I have always jumped at the opportunity to lend a helping hand and make sure their pups are watched and cared for as if their "parents" never left. In those twenty-plus years I have cared for a variety of breeds and all ages from puppy to senior. As for myself, I have had the honor of owning five dogs throughout my life ranging from a new puppy to senior dogs in their final years. I am familiar and comfortable with four legged companions that have medical needs and have experience specifically with diabetic canine care. I know each dog has their own unique personality, likes, dislikes and comforts and I enjoy getting to know each and every one while building an understanding and bond with them!

Safety, trust & environment

I will lean on you to gain an understanding of your dog's routine, care and any safety items I should be aware of such as possible reactive behavior while on walks or in the presence of other animals and I will be sure to adhere to preferences surrounding those things. Safety is a top priority for your pet and myself.

Delane was a wonderful dog/house sitter for us. She was extremely responsive and attentive. She provided photos and updates each day. She followed all our instructions and left the house in immaculate condition. Highly recommend her.

As a military family with no relatives nearby, it's always a bit stressful leaving our dogs when we travel—but Delane made the entire experience worry-free. She stayed in our home and cared for our dogs, Hunter and Ninja, with so much love and attention. She was friendly, dependable, and kept us updated with regular messages and adorable photos. She even worked with our puppy on leash training! We returned to two happy dogs and a home that was cleaner than we left it. We’re incredibly grateful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring in-home sitter.

I've known Delane for many years, and in that time, I've seen firsthand how incredibly devoted and caring she is when it comes to animals. Not only is she a wonderful dog parent herself, but she's always shown genuine affection and attentiveness towards my own dogs. We've spent countless hours together, with our furry friends playing and interacting, and I've always been impressed by Delane's gentle nature and responsible approach. It's clear that Delane has a true passion for animals, and she understands their needs on a deep level. She's patient, observant, and always puts the well-being of the dogs first. I would trust Delane to watch my dogs with absolutely zero hesitation. Knowing they'd be in her care would give me complete peace of mind. If you're looking for a reliable, compassionate, and truly loving pet sitter or dog walker, Delane is the perfect choice!
