Your furbaby is my furbaby

Pet care experience

I will take care of your furbaby as if he/she were my own. Animals have the purest spirit and I love to tap into their positive energy and genuine love and loyalty. I’ve had a lab and currently a standard poodle. I’m an online student so my schedule is flexible. Grizzly is my current baby and he’s super mild mannered and very well trained. I’m home most of the day and have a great fenced backyard. Grizzly isn’t territorial and doesn’t mind sharing his water bowl or toys. He has free range of the house but you’ll usually find him just lounging on the couch. He’s on a vegetarian diet but does enjoy freshly cooked eggs sometimes. I am health conscious when it comes to food and treats.

As always, Donna treated the boys like kings. She’s very communicative and always sends updates. She is our go-to sitter!

I didn't realize I never finished my review for Donna...She took care of our dog during the holidays and her service was superb. I highly recommend her! She provided regular updates and we could tell our pooch really loved her time there. Thank you Donna! Hope all is well with you!

This was our first time using Rover and Donna was amazing. Before our trip, I had a lot of anxiety about leaving our pups behind as we have an older dog that needs some extra support and is on a several medications in addition to a very playful lab. Donna spent extra time with us during a meet and greet to get to know the dogs and our routine and did everything possible to make sure we felt comfortable. She updated us regularly and sent pictures throughout our trip, which definitely helped us relax and enjoy our trip worry-free. We came home to some very well cared for dogs, who seem to have enjoyed us being gone as much as we did. If you need a pet sitter while you are on vacation I cannot recommend Donna enough!

Donna went above and beyond our expectations. This was the first time leaving our pets with a pet sitter so of course we were anxious and apprehensive but Donna did an amazing job getting to know us and more importantly our little ones. She made the whole experience a positive one and without a doubt we will not hesitate to seek her help again the next time we leave for a trip. We could see she truly cares about animals and doesn’t see this as just a job or duty but understands our pets are our family and treats them as such as if they were her own.

Information Donna S. would like to know about your pet

Since Grizzly is mild mannered I can only have dogs that show the same temperament in my house. Grizzly has no problem submitting to other dogs even in his home.

A typical day

Grizzly gets 2 walks a day. We walk about 25 minutes each time. If your dog would enjoy a walk they are always welcome to join the pack. I also give doggy massages daily and fresh organic vegetables.
