Highlights
Pet care experience
All animals,individualized care!
Bully breeds loved and welcomed! I have spent my entire life around animals; many species, many breeds, many temperaments and different environmental and social requirements. My mother was a veterinary technician and I spent my childhood and teen years helping around the vet clinic. I also grew up with horses and am very comfortable working with horses as well as other livestock. I have 5 years of professional pet sitting experience and I have had my own dogs(all rescues) for my entire life. I currently have a black lab, a goldendoodle puppy,two cats, and an albino cornsnake. I have a special place in my heart for bully breeds; I've had and known many pitties and they are the best of the best. I'm knowledgeable about the personality traits of a variety of breeds of dogs and I'm a huge proponent of positive reinforcement and gentle training techniques for all species of animal. I am comfortable with a variety of temperaments and will work with difficult cases. I enjoy being active, whether that means a long walk, playing fetch or tug of war, or practicing obedience. I'll be happy to provide you with updates on your pet's well-being through messages and pictures. It is important to me that I get to know your pets' habits and quirks so that I can provide the best possible care and so that I can recognize any potential issues. I would also be happy to provide care for multiple animals and species at a time. I am experienced with dogs, horses, cats, reptiles, fish, and a variety of other creatures.

Safety, trust & environment
I try to follow my client's normal pet's and/or home schedule as closely as possible. So when housesitting I try to follow a normal wake/sleep/eat/out schedule. I time my drop in visits and walks for similar times every day and follow a similar routine. I try to work in plenty of praise, pets, exercise, and mental stimulation according to individual needs.
Ratings and reviews
DJ is amazing, as a person and as a sitter. My babies loved their visits. Would definitely recommend!
DJ is awesome! The once a day drop in with our two cats went perfect. She was super attentive and sent photos of them everyday. We highly recommend DJ, you won’t be disappointed??
Nothing but positive vibes. Chuck loves his walks and DJ is fantastic-she is great with communication and so reliable.
First time using Rover and experience was absolutely amazing. She communicated well and could tell she really cared for my pups well being and happiness. 10/10 will use again.
Donna has walked my large dog regularly for a few weeks and is always reliable and responsive. She takes extra care in the heat, she has been super helpful with Daisy!
Super patient with changes that were beyond my control. Sent pictures at every visit. Our second time using DJ and very happy.
