Highlights
Pet care experience
Compassionate & Holistic Dog Sitter
Hello! I grew up on a farm and have felt a connection with animals since I was little. Living amongst various animals honed my intuition to naturally sync with them and their needs— a trait that has carried over as I began to care for dogs . I bring a holistic approach to my stay with your furry friend, and I also have experience with rescues. Around 6 years ago, I began dog sitting more consistently— and I’ve loved meeting the different personalities of man’s best friend. I’ll cuddle with your furry friend, and make them feel cherished and loved. I can’t wait to meet your little (or big) love! **Please Note When Booking: two night minimum stay**. Boarding is in Glendale, 91205. I live in a cute cottage guesthouse with a shared yard to the main house. For ease and reassurance, dogs who board must be good with small children.

Ratings and reviews
Dominique took great care of our dog and our home while we were away. We’re always a little nervous the first time our dog meets a sitter because she can be shy at first, and she’s reactive with other dogs, so it takes a calm and confident dog lover to make us all feel at ease. Dominique is fantastic! Kona felt comfortable with her very quickly. She asked great questions when we first met, making sure she understood Kona’s personality and routine. She sent us adorable updates throughout the stay, and we came home to a clean, tidy house and a happy dog. 10/10 recommend!
Dominique was absolutely amazing! She took wonderful care of our two senior dogs and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. She sent us daily updates with pictures and videos, so we always knew they were happy and well cared for. She also left our house spotless, which we really appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely book Dominique again. Highly recommend!
Dominique is Bomba’s favorite sitter. I’m so happy we found her. I feel such a relief knowing that Bomba is so well taken care of. Dominique is so consistent with sharing photos and video updates with me and you can see how much Bomba is enjoying herself. Could not be more thankful for her.
Dominique is a fantastic sitter and we’ve had her watch our dogs multiple times now, she goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!
Dominique did a great job watching my four big dogs. She kept us informed by sending pics on a daily basis. We kept in touch everyday via texting. My dogs in general are good pups but four big dogs are a challenge. Dominique handled herself well! She loves dogs and I recommend her for sitting with big dogs!
Dominique couldn’t have been more accommodating! My daughter and I were needed someone to look after her dogs , we never used Rover before and to be honest we were a bit nervous. We chose Dominique to take care of them and she was so great !!!! Sending pictures daily of the dogs and updates on them daily. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind person that loves dogs to look after your loved pets. We will use her again for sure!

Schedule
I work remotely so pet care fits easily into my day. I start the morning with the pups routine so he feels safe, happy and comfortable
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I adjust a pups care based on the info and requests from you, the owner! I’ve found that following their routine is helpful. I bring a grounding energy that our furry friends like. Animals tend to trust me pretty immediately, or with some time spent sitting with them.
A typical day
We will go on about 2-3 walks throughout the day. We’ll hang out together while I work and take playtime breaks, and I’ll take the pup with me on on errands when appropriate. Lots of cuddles throughout!

- Please let me know as much information about your pup as possible— routine, food portions etc. Your dogs demeanor— friendly, reactive etc. I also love knowing little quirks and behavior that I should be particularly attentive to.
