Work From Home Dog Sitter!
Hi! I’m Duane, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 13 years. Whether it’s raising energetic puppies, caring for senior dogs, or providing extra attention to dogs with special needs, I understand that every dog has unique needs and deserves personalized care. Because I work from home full time, your pet will never be left alone for long periods. They’ll have constant companionship, supervision, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide multiple walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and lots of affection to keep your dog happy, active, and comfortable. I believe communication is just as important as great pet care, so you’ll receive hourly photo and video updates throughout the day, giving you peace of mind and letting you follow along with your dog’s adventures while you’re away. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to provide an experience that both you and your dog will look forward to every time you book.

Ratings and reviews
Duane is the best! This was the longest we've been away from our dog and he sent pictures and video updates every day. We could tell Draco loved him and got the attention he needed! Already planning on having Duane watch him again!
Duane is amazing! Very attentive, responds quickly, and took the very best care of Holly. I would rebook with him again and again!
Duane is wonderful! He took great care of my dog for 13 days. I received daily photos and video clips from him. Duane also paid attention to my dog's various needs. I can tell he genuinely loves dogs. I highly recommend him.
Duane took such great care of sushi and pesto! Sent pictures everyday and took them on some great walks. I would definitely recommend him and will continue to trust my dogs with him!
Duane is excellent at taking care of dogs, especially elderly and sick dogs. On-time for pickup and drop off, administers medication, regular walks, feedings, and playtime. My baby felt right at home in Duane's arms, so much so he preferred his company to mine.
Duane is a long-time, caring, and responsible dog owner and caregiver. He is sensitive to the unique needs of different pups, and he thoughtfully caters to those needs with love.

Schedule
I work from home full time, so your dog will have constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. Because my schedule is flexible, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, multiple walks, playtime, meals on time, medication if needed, and plenty of one on one attention. Your pet will never be left alone, and I’ll make sure they stick to the routine they’re most comfortable with.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Before every stay, I take the time to learn about your dog’s routine, personality, medical needs, and any house rules you’d like me to follow. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with special needs, including administering oral medications and safely handling breeds that require extra care, like Dachshunds. My home provides a clean, calm environment where your dog can relax, play, and feel right at home. I’ll also send hourly photo and video updates so you always know how your pup is doing.

A typical day
Every dog’s day is personalized to fit their energy level and routine. If you already have a set routine I’ll be sure to follow it. Once you tell me more about your pet I’ll be sure to create an awesome schedule based off their personality and your wants and needs.
