Pet Sitting
Dana from Whiskers and Paws is a life saver! My husband and I were concerned about using a pet sitter or boarding kennel for the first time especially given how expensive they can be. Dana reached out just in time and we’re so happy we went with her! Her services are very affordable compared to other companies, she’s professional and was always on time. Both our dogs loved her and we had peace of mind knowing we could rely on her to walk and feed our dogs while I was out of town and my husband worked long hours. We highly recommend Dana and will definitely use her services again in the future! More...

Dana is the most reliable and responsible person I have ever known —seriously. She has been walking our two dogs every weekday for over 4 years and she’s never missed a single day! On occasions when we’ve needed some evening coverage, she’s come twice a day. She's amazing with the dogs who can be selective about who they befriend. Honestly, we adore Dana don’t know what we’d do without her! You can put your trust in her! More...
What do you love most about your job?
The thing that I enjoy most is the love that the animals that I care for return to me.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always had a love of animals. I used to work in financial services for years but when my children were born, I decided to start my own business. It allowed me to do something that I enjoy and grow my business as my children grew older and more independent.
Why should our clients choose you?
You should choose me because I care about the pets that I visit. Also, I am very dependable and responsible. I have never missed a pet sitting visit, even when sick or when snow & ice made driving difficult. It is important that you have piece of mind when you are away from home.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I wear my mask and gloves when in clients homes. Also, I have asked my regular dog walking clients to keep equipment such as harnesses and leashes near the door to limit my time indoors. If the dog(s) are crated, I ask clients to locate the crate(s) near the front door. I also wash my hands and use hand sanitizer frequently.
Dog Walking
I walk dogs for clients in their neighborhoods. My standard dog walk is 30 minutes.
Pet Sitting
I provide pet sitting visits in clients homes. I visit up to 3 times a day and my standard visit lasts between 20 - 40 minutes, depending upon what is needed. I feed the pets, provide TLC, refresh their water and cat litter and provide potty breaks and a daily walk for dogs. I also provide basic house sitting services such as taking the trash out, bringing in the mail and adjusting the lights or shades to make your home appear to be occupied.
