Let me love your dog

Pet care experience

I've provided in-home pet care services including feeding, leashed walks, bathing and light grooming, and giving oral medication. I've owned a very hyper and stubborn pekingese mix, and have dog sat regularly for pugs, Pomeranian's, and labs. I have grown up with and cared for a range of different animals. Starting from frogs, turtles, salamanders, fish, rodents, birds, dogs, and goats! Yes, that covers at least one genus of each class of the animal kingdom. I have always had a personal love and connection with animals; I am also a biologist and have great passion and respect for all living organisms. I've graduated with my master of science degree and will start my PhD in fall 2016. I see pets as family members and believe they should receive sufficient time and attention; being in this transitional phase I currently do not own any pets, and would be delighted to shower your furry friends with love and care.

Donya did a great job with my anxious, shy pups. They were giving her kisses before too long. We will definitely work with her again!

Donya is an animal lover and most of all, a dog lover. Since I've known her (for about 9 years) she's always been passionate about caring for dogs and I've witnessed her passion firsthand. She's reliable, energetic and most important, a loving person who can keep your pet safe. I highly recommend her.

Donya is an animal lover and most of all, a dog lover. Since I knew her, she was always talking about her passion towards owning dogs or at least taking care of someone else's dog. She's reliable, energetic and most important, a loving person that can keep your pet safe. I highly recommend her.

Information Donya S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any special needs, relating to health, personality, feeding and etc. Also, knowing about any sort of behavioral quirks would be helpful in making our stay together more pleasant. To avoid any accidents while on walks, I would also appreciate if you let me know the social level of your dog and how they tolerate other animals or people (of different age and sex). I would be delighted to take care of any breed as long as they are not aggressive.

A typical day

I am very active and would love a furry buddy to go on walks to at the Washington Park Arboretum. On a nice day we can have fun in the sun at the Madison Park Beach. If your dog is social we can go to the Seattle University campus where they can make doggy friends or chill on the grass. Depending on your dog's personality and energy level, we can play ball all day or go for leisurely walks and cuddle.
