Pet care experience

Animal Lover

My name is Donna. I have always cared for dogs and other animals since my childhood. I have many years of experience caring for and boarding dogs. My business has mostly gone through word of mouth and newspaper advertisements. I am new to online pet sitting but I have decided to update my business and get online. I have a lot of experience with dispensing medications to pets and caring for pets young and old. I used to run a daycare and love to care for others. My children have grown and I have plenty of time to care for the animals I board into my home. I have a large yard which is fenced in and private. Please contact me with any questions you may have. Thank you. I do very part time work outside the home. I am available seven days a week for daycare or overnight stays. I welcome any length of time from just a couple days to weeks. Dogs are welcome in any room of my home and I do let them in furniture. My yard is double fenced and gates locked at all times.

Donna was amazing. She watched my 4 year old goldendoodle and 3 month old Cavapoo for a weekend. She took great care of them, was very accommodating and flexible. I highly recommend her services.

Donna is great!! She watched my puppy for a day when I wasn’t going to be home and did an amazing job. She was reliable, caring, and kept me updated, which gave me peace of mind. Very responsive if I wanted to check in. My puppy was happy and well taken care of—I’d definitely trust her again and recommend her to others!

Donna had some great reviews and repeat customers, but our experience wasn’t as great. We did not get the warm and fuzzy feeling when we dropped our girl, Charley, off. Upon pick-up, she opened door and yelled “I hate these retractable leashes.” She proceeded to tell us our dog broke 2 gates and was standing on top of a crate. She wasn’t happy and understandable. We did give her a cash tip nonetheless. Our dog smelled so bad (as did her house at drop off) and when Charley got home, she drank 2 big bowls of water. We had to bathe her and she shed so much hair like she hadn’t had water in days. Maybe it was just our experience, but it wasn’t good for us.

A typical day

16 to 40 lbs
Donna can host up to 8 pets per night
I ask you to bring food for your dog and that’s it! If they have a favorite toy or blanket you are welcome to bring it. I have crates if you want your dog or puppy crated overnight.
