Can I Pet Your Dog

Pet care experience

I have a soft spot in my heart for animals, especially dogs and cats. They deserve to be treated like family and should be showered with love and all of the pets. I had a 17 year old pup named Duke, that passed in July 2020. He was very sweet and has never met a stranger. I used to foster dogs for many years. I mostly fostered dogs with anxiety, that were over stressed, or medically released. I also fostered perfectly healthy adults, puppies, and cats. It was extremely rewarding. However, I stopped a few months ago because the last little buddy I fostered was too ill to be saved and had to be euthanized. It broke my heart and I don’t think I can go through that again. I truly miss caring for furry friends and would love to care for your special pal. I am home full time and will be around almost all day (gotta run errands sometimes) to give your beloved family member all the attention and affection they deserve and need. On nice days, I like to spend a lot of time outside playing with the pups in my care. On hot days, I’ll bring out a kiddie pool for the puppers to splash around or even just work on their tan. There is plenty of room to run and play in my large, fenced backyard. There is also a lot of shade in some areas in the summer from the trees as well. I’d love to do a meet and greet with you and your best bud. It would be a privilege to care for your cherished family member and shower them with love and all of the belly rubs. Hopefully it’ll be a match made in doggy heaven.

Dominique will work with your travel plans if there are changes and at times will forfeit payment. She has personally refunded me twice when my travel plans were canceled or shortened. She is the only dog sitter I go to.

Dominique was wonderful with our cat-girls! They went from cautious at drop-off to BFFs a few days later. Glad to have met someone we can trust with our fur babies!

Dominique is a fantastic sitter. She has been wonderful with our two cats. She not only feeds them, but stays and plays with them for each visit, which they love. I’ve felt at ease with her watching our babies.

Always a pleasure! Will continue to use her as our dog sitter.

Information Dominique S. would like to know about your pet

• Does your pupper have any food related allergies, quirks, or aggression? • Is your dog-o friendly and get along well with other pets and people? • Is your fluffy buddy house trained or have certain queues to let me know they need to go? • Is your special guy/gal up to date on all their vaccinations? • Most importantly, does your furry family member love all of the pets and hugs?

A typical day

When it’s hot outside I like to turn on the sprinkler and let the pups play in the water. There is also plenty of room to run around and play fetch. Inside I like to play or cuddle the pups, whichever they need or want to do.
