Will Lovingly Care for Your Pets

Pet care experience

I have always been a lover of our furry friends. Over the past few years I have become more involved with the handling and care of dogs by working closely with dogs in shelters, becoming a professional dog groomer and working closely with my friend, who is a professional dog trainer. I recently attended a training class on how to administer CPR for Dogs and Cats and am comfortable using this training in the time of an emergency as well as administering medication, as needed. I love all dog breeds and look forward to the opportunity of caring for your pets. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog-lover and owner for as long as I can remember. I always grew up with dogs in my home and I was the one who cared for them. I have owned many different breeds of dogs, but I love all breeds and all sizes. Dogs have a special place in my heart and that's why I love to have the opportunity to care for them as much as I can. About my yard I have a huge backyard, that is not fenced in, but with the trees and bushes that surround it, they create a natural fence. I have included pictures of the actual background for your review. My experience administering medication I am very comfortable administering medication.

You know you have great pet sitter when your dog can't get out of the car fast enough when you drop him off!

When my husband and I met Dionna at our home for the meet and great I thought it was amazing. She came over to meet my pets. I their own environment. My Peppa adjusted well, my Cain is a strange dog but after sometime he softened up to her. During our stay away Dionna, kept me informed daily about our dogs daily activities. It truly warmed our hearts to know that someone who truly cares about pets was taken care of our fur babies and I can't thank her enough. Thank you Dionna for all you have done to make my vacation even more enjoyable knowing that our babies were truly taken care of. ❤️❤️❤️

Starting with the initial contact and the Meet and Greet, we instantly felt very comfortable and confident in Dionna and her ability to take great care of Koko. Dionna did a GREAT job watching our dog!! She made sure we were updated by sending pictures. She also did a great job of getting our dog re-acclimated with other dogs, and we were impressed to see her actually getting along with other dogs! She has a huge backyard for the dogs to play in and also has a separate room (huge) for the dogs to play in (see pics) if the weather gets nasty. We highly recommend Dionna and absolutely plan to use her again in the future! Thanks again for everything Dionna!

My dog isn't always fond of other dogs, but he seemed very calm through his stay with the pictures I received.
