About: I’ve been a pet parent for over 20 years. In our home, we have a cat and a senior dog who is friendly with everyone. We have a giant fenced yard for all our furry friends to enjoy and play. I am well versed at caring for all types of pets and those that require extra care. Neighbors and friends ask for my help all the time! I work from home full time M-F and rarely leave home for more than a few hours at a time. I can walk dogs in the morning, evening, and give frequent potty breaks! I have a fenced yard and a dog to keep your fur babies company. I can crate your dog if needed or let them hang out with me while I work. It’s your choice on what I can do to best meet your pet’s schedule!
“I can’t recommend Danielle enough! They took amazing care of my cat Jerry while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. From the very beginning, Danielle was professional, responsive, and clearly experienced with cats. Jerry can be a bit shy with new people, but he warmed up to Danielle right away — a true testament to their gentle and kind approach. I received regular updates, including photos and little notes about how Jerry was doing, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Danielle didn’t just “watch” Jerry, but genuinely cared for him — playing with him, keeping his routine, and making sure he felt safe and comfortable. When I came home, Jerry was relaxed, happy, and clearly well looked after. Everything was neat and clean, and his food, water, and litter area were spotless. It honestly felt like I never left. If you're looking for a trustworthy, loving, and responsible cat sitter, look no further than Danielle. Jerry and I are both so lucky to have found her.”

I always: - Follow your instructions carefully (feeding, walks, meds, etc.) - Keep your home tidy and clean up after pets - Provide companionship, cuddles, and playtime - Maintain their usual sleep, potty, and exercise habits - Bring in mail or water plants if needed - Send photos and updates so you know they’re doing great My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away.
“Fiona and Filip were both amazing cat sitters for my two fur babies. They were prompt, responsive and so friendly with my girls. They both made sure to send photos, give updates on the rover card and put my mind at ease knowing my girls were in good hands while I was away on a trip. I will 100% book them again in the future!!”
