Professional Care + Personal Touch

Pet care experience

I have cared for, fostered, and volunteered working with dogs and cats for the last 23 years. It is my passion! There is nothing better than being greeted by a happy, excited dog or cat! If I could, I would spend all my time caring for animals. I am always nervous trusting others with my animals so I believe in caring for each clients loved ones as if they are my own! I want people to feel confident that they do not have to worry for one second while their beloved one is in my care! I am certified with ProPetHero. I also have experience giving diabetic shots and other medication injections. I'm currently getting educated and taking classes to become a trainer. I am currently available all day every day!! Drop ins are always within a range so if you schedule a drop in for 8 am there will be an hour range *i.e. 7 am to 9am. I always give the best care to the animals that are in my care. Overnights are from 10:00 pm to 7:00 am. If you need additional times you must include dropins. However, I am happy to discuss and negotiate a flat rate for the day. When I visit or stay in a client's home my only concern is the animal(s) that I'm sitting for and making sure they are safe and happy! If I'm letting a clients dog out back to play (even if the yard is fenced) I will do a walk around the yard first checking for any gaps, holes or areas that might be an escape for the little one (or big one 😁). Once I feel like the yard is secure, I let them out and it's PLAYTIME!! If we are going on a walk and there is another dog around, we cross the street as soon as it's possible to avoid any situations that could arise. After exercise time and the dog is fed (depending on the instructions left by the client) it's ❤lovings time and picture time!

Dani’s been watching our cats on and off for the last couple years and she is amazing! We always feel like our boys are being well taken care of and it leaves us with peace of mind when we’re away. Dani always gives us regular updates with pictures, which we love to read/see during our travels. We’re grateful to have found someone who genuinely loves our kitties and takes care of them so well!

Ginger was well taken care of and loved. When we returned home she was very obviously loved and cared for by going on walks and at ease upon our return! I recommend Dani!

Dani was great with our boys (one of whom is older and can be cranky and generally distrusts strangers). Great communication and photos throughout, and dogs always looked very happy. Will definitely use Dani again.

Dani goes above and beyond for the pets she cares for. We feel so fortunate to have found her. I highly recommend Dani, she's a good pet sitter and a good person.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is the absolute most important thing for me! If I'm walking your loved ones and there is another walker with their dog ahead, I either cross the street or turn and go a different direction. Safety first and I'd rather be safe than sorry 😉.

Information Dani K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your kind of personality your dog has in advance. Are they shy at first? Do they mind the rain? Are they scared of thunderstorms? Are they on medications? What is their favorite treat? Are they allowed treats? Do they have commands that you want me to use? And most importantly, what do they love (i.e. walk, fetch, tug of war, belly rubs) ?

A typical day

I love taking my dogs to the park for one on one time. We walk the trails together and then I let them run loose in the gated baseball field for one last burst of energy! I think it's important that the dogs I sit for get their energy out by going on walks and playing fetch. Those dogs that are seniors or can't get a high energy walk will get loved on and the entire time spent doing what they love to do! On cat visits I like to go in and depending on the cat, spend my time hanging out with him/her and giving them lovings.
