Dog Boarding with fenced yard

Pet care experience

I can take good care of your furry child while you’re away for a night or a few. I have three years pet sitting experience and a life time of pet owning experience. I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs, large and small and can handle multiple animals at once. I have provided care for dogs, cats, birds and other small pets and can feed, water, provide play time and administer medication if necessary. I can lift, clean up after and bathe animals as well. You needn’t worry about your pet being neglected, I will treat them as one of my own while they stay. I own a medium sized pitboxer, a large Russian wolfhound (borzoi) and three adaptable cats-they are all loving and friendly toward other animals but if there’s any issues with our furry friends getting along-my dogs are crate trained and I have the space in my home to separate them while your pet is here with us. I love all animals big and small and hope you choose me to keep your loved one <3

Delanna has been a wonderful caretaker to my dogs and her own, and one particular story I like to share is about Maddy. I adopted Maddy, a pretty one-eyed hound dog from our local SPCA, not totally aware of all the work that can go into training and bonding with a shelter animal. She was very neurotic, hated being alone and we were having issues house training her. I work full time and realized I could not give Maddy all the attention she needed, and so I turned to Delanna, who gladly took her in. Within a few weeks Maddy was calm and happy, fully house trained, putting on weight after starting out extremely skinny, and thriving. When Maddy had to go in for surgery after complications with her spaying, Delanna laid with her all night, knowing she wouldn't want to be alone and watching out for any side effects of her anesthesia. Rey is another dog I've watched Delanna bond with and care for. When her previous owners couldn't keep her any longer, she gladly adopted Rey and trained her up. I have never seen a dog love their owner so much. I always recommend Delanna to my friends who need a pet sitter. She has experience with large breeds and small, has no issues working with breeds others consider dangerous and is an all around animal lover. This is something she is passionate about, and I'd love to see her business thrive.

Information Delanna H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about any aggressive tendencies as I have my own dogs. They are both spayed and crate trained and can be separated from your dog if there are any issues that arise. Safety comes first :) I will take care of any and all breeds.

A typical day

Games of tug of war, fetch, and running! My dogs are very playful and would love to run around and play in the fenced yard with your dog
