Dogsitting With Dot!

I love animals and usually prefer their company to any other. Pet sitting is my full-time job, and during my stay your pet’s care will be my top priority, and I will spend most of my time in your home with them. I am flexible and will do everything I can to make sure their routine stays the same and that they’re comfortable, happy, and loved, while also doing all I can to ensure you feel comfortable leaving them and your home in my care. I am a freelance photographer, so your daily updates will include many photos. I have experience with special needs animals and have no trouble providing extra support and giving medications. From one night to a month or more - I am interested in any length of stay. I am always excited to meet new clients and always grateful for my continued relationships with repeat clients. I also offer pet portrait prints! If you would like professional candid photography prints, please let me know and we can discuss options. I am an insured and bonded pet sitter. #dogsittingwithdot

Dorothy was amazing! She took such good care of our new puppy. Our puppy is still house training and Dorothy was very attentive and helped support her learning. She was also a great houseguest- leaving the place spotless. I’ll definitely be calling her again.

Dot is an excellent dog sitter. She is communicative, loves animals, and is responsible. You can tell she cares about making sure your pet is happy and well cared for while you are away. I would trust her with my dog and house 10 out of 10 times. My dog already misses her and I can’t wait to book her again!

Dorothy was freaking amazing! Took fabulous care of the pups (who can be *a lot*). She was super communicative, and really rolled with the punches (like the power randomly going out with a few hours left in her stay). I cannot say enough positive things about having Dorothy watch Ziggysaurous and Jacob.

What a joy! My husband and I have two young dogs (a Golden Retriever rescue and a big silly Doberman). Like all of us, finding someone who the dogs can bond with, feel safe and comfortable with, exercise with and just find never ending attention and love from can be a challenge. And Dorothy does not disappoint! She was very communicative and responsive and kept us updated with really great photos daily. She has a very detailed questionnaire for the dogs which provided me a level of confidence in leaving them in her care. Thank you so much Dorothy for all of your love for Rigs and Picsou. I know they're missing you!

I like to know any quirks or traits that will impact our time together so that I know their boundaries and can avoid making them scared or nervous.
