Pet Lover with years of experience

I grew up in a family with dogs my whole life. I currently spend a lot of time in Mexico working with dog shelters and I ALWAYS have a foster pup with me until they find their forever home. I have helped those dogs with potty training and leash training. We have a dog in Mexico but not in Canada. I have a 4 year old son who has grown up watching my love for dogs and it has definitely rubbed off on him. He's the kid asking to pet everyone's dogs on the street. We've had many dogs in our home and looking forward to more.

Danica & her son were so great with Kwaku -- we had a meet & greet ahead of time, they shared lots of pictures & they had so much fun with Kwaku!

Danica is a huge animal lover. She has fostered many dogs for me and has given them the comfort and love they need to flourish. She was able to gain their trust, potty and leash train them. She was very communicative with me and shared photos and videos of them in her care. She goes well beyond in making sure the pups are well loved and would be a huge asset to Rover!Ca

Danica is a wonderful, kind, caring and responsible dog sitter. She takes care of my 5 lb toy poodle, Yuma serval times a week for over a year and a half now. Yuma absolutely adores Danica. She gets super excited when she see her. Yuma has become more social and Danica has help me consolidate Yuma’s toilet training. I’m so lucky to have Danica I’m Yuma’s life. I can go to work and know that Yuma is lobed and we’ll care for. I highly recommend her as a dog sitter/caregiver.

Schedule

I work from home so I am home with the dog all day long. I have flexible work hours. I have a great outdoor area for quick bathroom breaks but my son and I are walkers so the dogs are taken out on at LEAST 2 walks a day.

Safety, trust & environment

We let the dog sleep in our bed if the owner wants that . I only take one pup at a time so your little one would have our undevided attention. There is so much love for pets over here you can feel truly comfortable and confident . I send pictures to the owners of our adventures and keep in great communication.

A typical day

I am here to make your doggy feel as happy and comfortable as they are in their own home. We are on many walks around our beautiful kitsilano neighborhood. We can go to the dog parks if your dog likes that or we can stay in and snuggle.
