Pet care experience

Dogs give unconditional ❤️.

I took care of our pets when young. Have had pets all my adult years. I have two Yorkshire puppies right now that are part of the family. Will always have a pet till I no longer can take care of them. I have a fenced yard. My home has hardwood floors that are waterproof. And we have potty pads everywhere for any accidents. I believe that treating your dog as one of our family is the best way and only way I know to give your dog the best care and love that they can have. Look forward to caring for you fur baby.

Dona did a great job looking after our dog Willy. He isn't an easy dog to watch over. He is disabled and in a wheelchair. Dona went the extra mile to ensure that Willy was comfortable and cared for. She stayed in touch with us throughout the time she watched him. I definitely recommend her for watching your dog. Thank you so much Dona.

We are so happy with Dona’s dog-sitting service. She was very flexible and accommodating of our delays and time adjustments. She communicated very effectively and kindly and the periodic pictures and messages about our dogs wellbeing were very reassuring. When we return to New Port Richey, we will be using Dona again.

Safety, trust & environment

I spend my time caring for and keeping your fur babies safe and loved. I have a fenced yard so your fur babies stay off the streets. I have dog cage if neccesary to keep some safe till all get along if need be. Rather not use them except to separate for meal time.
