Pet care experience

Experienced with difficult dogs

Hi there! My name is Dani and I am a freelance writer and huge animal lover 🏳️‍🌈. Since I often work from home, I love doing pet sits - It's great to have a furry companion while I write. I have dog sat and dog walked regularly since 2010 and have dozens of excellent references. I am also experienced with rescue dogs, difficult dogs and am not afraid of large dogs. I've also worked with dogs that needed medication / daily injections. Some of the breeds I've worked with: Wheaten Terrier, German Shepherd, Pit bull, Chihuahua, White Highland Terrier, Cocker Spaniel, American Eskimo, Golden Retriever, Labradoodle, Australian Shepherd. I make my own schedule, so I am flexible with regards to time & happy to stay at your home with your dog. ***Note*** I moved from Cobble Hill to Williamsburg recently, but I still offer my services to longterm clients and overnight stays in the neighborhoods I was covering previously, such as Dumbo, Brooklyn Heights, Carroll Gardens, Park Slope, Gowanus, Carroll Gardens and Prospect Heights. Open to discuss longer stays in Manhattan and in further away neighborhoods such as Long Island City.

Dani is the absolute best!! She has taken care of our two cats twice now and they love her. She is very communicative and we felt so much more comfortable leaving our cats knowing she was taking care of them! We hope to book her again!

Dani was a life saver in stepping in at the last minute when our normal arrangement fell through. Our dog was very happy and well cared for. Would absolutely recommend. Thanks again!

Dani took amazing care of our two cats!! She was prompt and super flexible. She stayed in our apartment and took great care of everything. She was extremely communicative and we felt very comfortable with her throughout the entire stay. The next time we are away we would love to book Dani again!

Dani was excellent to my boy Mauna. She was very professional and able to come last minute! She also left the house pristine. I will definitely be seeking her services again in the future. Thank you!
