Passionate about pets!

Pet care experience

I’ve owned and taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has had a variety of dogs, varying in sizes. Everything from great danes, german shepherds, labs, to cockapoos and chihuahuas. I am comfortable around any breed of dog. We have trained our dogs ourselves and they have all been well-behaved. Our Great Dane mix was a certified therapy dog and would visit shelters and retirement communities. My friends and family always ask me first to pet sit! I often watch my grandparents rescue boxers, my aunts German shepherd, my friend’s intact pit, and my friend’s Austrailian shepherd. A college roommate had 2 cats so I am comfortable watching cats as well! I love cats but I never have personally owned them as a pet. I have administered oral medication and skin cremes to a few of my older dogs as they developed health issues later in life. I currently have a female cockapoo named Cherry. She is so sweet! We attended a special 6 week training course because I wanted her to be more obedient and it has taught me more skills I can apply with other dogs as well. I would love to meet your pets! I work full time Monday-Friday now. I am usually always free any day after 5pm, or anytime on weekends! I have a nice house in a friendly neighborhood. We don’t have a fence but we have two long chains in the front and in the backyard that the dogs can run and play on. They reach a safe distance and connect to the house so they can’t be pulled off. The front yard is pretty large with lots of open space to play. Our house has tons of dog toys! There is a park nearby that I could walk the dogs around.I have a cockapoo named Cherry. She is 25 pounds. She loves all other dogs she meets and is very playful. Not submissive but not aggressive, just wants to play with everyone!

Hannah was great with our pups! Great communication. She also sent updates/photos at each of her check-ins (which were always right on time!). Would recommend Hannah for sure. :)

This was our 1st time leaving our pups and I was so nervous. Hannah came over before our trip and made my decision easy. She’s really sweet and kept me up to date on how they were doing and sent pics & vids. They looked like they had a great time!! She went above and beyond and I will most definitely leave my puppies with her again!! Also we asked with a super short notice and she was kind enough to take on the job!! She is great!!

Hannah was so great! I needed someone to watch my Birdie girl super last minute, and she was gladly up for the task. She was so wonderful about watching Birdie for over 13 hours and did such an amazing job while doing it! Birdie was asleep and snoring less than an hour after getting home! Would love to use Hannah as a dog sitter again in the future :)

Information Hannah D. would like to know about your pet

I don’t have any breed preferences. I would like to know the dogs eating schedule, how it reacts with other dogs so I’m aware, how it walks (harness, type of collar, etc), special things that make it happy!

A typical day

I like to take my dogs and the dogs I watch on around the near by park, walking trails, and by retirement communities so the residents can look out and wave at us walking by. If it’s warm they can play in the sprinkler or mini pool. If it’s cold they can run around in the snow in my backyard!
