Pet care experience

Trustworthy and loving dog care!

With over 30 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and ages, I have developed a deep understanding of their unique needs and personalities. I am new to caring for others’ pets, but feel confident in doing so. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of owning and caring for multiple dogs, from puppies to seniors, and I take great pride in providing them with love, attention, and proper care. We have had up to 5 dogs at the same time in our home throughout the years. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, administering medication, or simply offering companionship, I am dedicated to ensuring that each dog I care for feels comfortable, happy, and well-cared for. I am comfortable caring for senior dogs, as one of my current dogs is diabetic and receives insulin. Our neighborhood is suitable for walking and our fenced yard is perfect for playtime. My experience allows me to recognize and address the needs of dogs at any stage of life, making sure they receive the best possible care while their owners are away! Your dog(s) will feel right at home with our family or in your own home. They may even be treated with a new toy :) I understand worrying about your animals while you are away, and promise that your pets will be well taken care of by me.

Donna was fantastic! She responded to messages quickly and sent me photos of my girl while I was away, who looked to be having the time of her life while staying with Donna! I will definitely be booking again in the near future and also referring anyone who is in need of a generous, attentive and carring puppy sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two friendly, small, senior dogs that will keep your pets company. Their space will be secure as we have a decent size fenced in yard, and will provide comfortable sleeping arrangements. Your dog(s)’daily routine can be similar to their current one! I understand that sometimes it is best to stay in their regular environment, and I would be open to taking them on walks on their usual route, playing with them and their own toys, or offering companionship in their own spaces.

Pets

A typical day

We have access to the backyard as much as needed. We would play with toys, play fetch, or just enjoy the weather. We can also go on multiple walks throughout the day! We have a small lake and trails in our neighborhood that are very pet friendly.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

I would just love to know what your pets usually do throughout the day so that I can mimic their schedule as much as possible. Please let me know how comfortable they are with other small dogs as well.
