Lifelong Dog Lover and Caregiver!

Pet care experience

I have loved and lived with dogs since the age of 5 years old. I grew up with two Rottweilers, a brown Labrador, and a Chihuahua. I currently live with a Husky Mix and a recently rescued cat. Both of whom belong to my roommate. I am often asked to petsit for friends and family simply because it is such a passion of mine. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend!

Dominique was extremely patient with our big dog, letting him slowly acclimate to her. She was extremely responsive and gave frequent updates. She is so trustworthy, and I would recommend booking with her.

Dominique is excellent with Lily. She is patient, kind, and playful with her. She really goes the extra mile when working with my Lily. She is always on time and reliable. I highly recommend Dominique.

Safety, trust & environment

I depend on heavily on the body language of animals to determine their needs and wants. While discipline is important, I believe that animals need to be listened to be able to trust a human being. Especially when a stranger is walking into their home for a walk or a sit.

Information Dominique C. would like to know about your pet

Beforehand, I must know their levels of aggressiveness towards people, other dogs, and children. Do they have triggers? (i.e. cars, ambulances, large dogs, etc.) What activities are off-limits for them? Dietary limits, allergies, etc.

A typical day

I love to go on hikes with dogs. Depending on your pet's health, we can go on relaxing walks that aren't too strenuous or faster-paced adventures to the park. I love playing catch with tennis balls and cloth frisbees. But I also love slow-paced, short distance walks with dogs in their later years.
