🦮 My Fear Free Commitment
I choose to use only humane, reward-based methods. That means no choke chains, prong collars, shock collars, or other punitive tools — ever.
If your dog doesn’t have a flat collar or harness, I’ll gladly supply one for our walks.
It’s the client’s responsibility to disclose all health, behavior, and safety information prior to services, especially relevant for Lancaster pet sitting and dog walking.
For your pet’s safety:
- I do not allow dog-to-dog greetings or interactions with strangers.
- I do not conduct pack walks or visit dog parks.
Your pet’s emotional and physical well-being always comes first. 🧡

💬 Happy Clients Say… “Dana has been a wonderful pet sitter for our critters! We have birds, dogs, a snake, and a bearded dragon and she has cared for them while we were away twice now, and we already have her lined up for a third time. She is dedicated to caring for our pets as if they were her own and we feel so at ease knowing that they are in good hands. It’s always so nice to get her text updates, with awesome photos, every time she stops by during the day while we are gone. We highly recommend Dana and our pets do too!”
