I grew up with a brother with special needs. He was born with Cerebral Palsy. I was a constant part of his everyday functioning needs. He was/is a huge sports fan so many interesting public outings have been had trying to find where they stashed his chair and many other typical "the public does not understand" events. I also have had experience with autism. I enjoy helping out and getting to know some awesome people I would not otherwise have a chance to meet.

    I highly recommend Dana and she is absolute blessing for our 5 fur babies. Dana is reliable, trustworthy and has a magic touch they all loved her. That is not all ways the case they are very picky little ones on who they trust. Dana went above and beyond taking care of these babies and our home. Dana made sure it was just as we left it if not cleaner. I don't know what we would have done without her! She will update you as often as you'd like regarding your pets and their behavior. We are so happy to have found her that we don't stressing about planning for our next trips I would HIGHLY recommend she is truly amazing.
