6 years of fostering experience
Pet care experience
We adopted our dog 10 years ago at 5 months old, and for the past 6 years I have been very involved with fostering and volunteering for a local rescue. This has given me so much experience with many different dog personalities. helped me learn how to best introduce them to our environment and to our own dog (who is a gentle giant, even adjusting to very small puppies being fostered here) and has given me so much more knowledge about dog behaviors in general. I have fostered 22 dogs thus far, handled at adoption shows, transported dogs to vet visits and selected adopters for my fosters. I feel very qualified at this point to give your dog all the care and love they need and deserve while you are away! I am home during the week and as long as a dog gets along with our dog I am very happy to have them here Your dog will always have plenty of love and attention when they are with me, and their needs will always be met. When they are here they are family!
Reviews
Scout, my Havanese, had a wonderful stay with Donna! This was a trial run before his longer stay with her over our next trip. She sent many pictures of him during the stay and he returned home happy and nice and tired. I know he's going to have another good stay with her very soon!
Donna is a great sitter! She was extremely patient in in helping Eli adjust to his new surroundings (he can be nervous in new environments) and sent regular updates and photos. When I picked him up he seemed so relaxed and happy in her home. It was obvious he had a great stay (unlike when I’ve boarded him at my vet). Her dog, Slugger, got along so well with Eli too! Donna is a kind, loving sitter who I will use again and recommend highly!
Donna was great! She spent regular updates and pictures to let us know how ChuChu is doing. Will definitely board with her again.
Donna, How do I thank you enough?! My boys are 7 and 9 years old and we had never left them before being in your care this past week. The only trips we've ever taken, have included them. I knew that when your name was passed my way, that I had nothing to worry about. You were the foster mom to my best friends new puppy and he is just the most perfect and happy puppy! He was so lucky to start off in your care and with your love! You sent me such sweet pictures of my boys daily and gave me such piece of mind. We came home after a full week to two very healthy and happy doggies. My family needed this trip so badly, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us make it possible!!!

Information Donna K. would like to know about your pet
I need to know as much about their normal day as possible so I know what to expect. Do they like getting outside for walks? Do they enjoy playing with another dog or just hanging out with them? Do they get any treats?
A typical day
Our dog is here to play with them or just chill if that’s what they prefer. I will take them for walks if they are used to that or spend time in our backyard with them
