Safety, trust & environment
I only housesit & drop-in visits. It’s far from rocket science to be good at this if you have ever had a pet you truly love/ed and can stomach the thought of anything subpar. I treat pet like how I would want someone to treat my own. The restrictions on this app do not allow me to write a novel about this whole concept that us animal lovers would understand so just plainly put I’m honest and I’m not a lot of fluff, but I’m courteous and I will be flexible when I can, and usually I can. I go about that is treating your home just as good as my own if not better and leaving it either only house the same or even better condition in someway because that’s what I learned in Boy Scouts and it’s really easy to do.. I’ve also appreciated it when people have done that for me in my life.. I want to be very clear though I am responsible for an innocent life. I’m crystal clear with my methods and gold standard customer service, which is just what I’ve been involved with pretty much my whole professional career in some capacity.. I will not act on harming an animal even if a clients credit care could pay off the national debt. My ethics and morals are not for sale and that’s a good thing. Money is important, but I have enjoyed a lot in life already and it’s not #1. Pet safety, my safety and your homes security management is my first priority. I like to cultivate returning clientele more than quantity
Ratings and reviews
We were so grateful that Daniel was able to watch our dog on such short notice! He did a great job with our dog who has severe separation anxiety! He is a great conversationalist and we felt comfortable having him at our house. We look forward to having him watch our dog in the future!
Daniel once again was awesome and took great care of our fur babies! We know we have a large fur family, but the care, attention, and love Daniel gives our pets is truly appreciated. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying because we knew our pets were in great hands. We highly recommend Daniel to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Danny truly loves animals and is committed to providing the best possible care to insure our fur babies are well cared for, safe, and loved. We appreciate him and the care he provides.
A dedicated, trustworthy sitter. Daniel went the extra mile in so many regards for us yet again, we wouldn't have anyone else. Our 2025 Christmas trip ended in a twelve hour delay through Ohare International. Daniel was gracious and accommodated us through that delay, kept us updated, and stayed flexible as weather and other unforeseen issues kept cropping up late into the night. Arriving home at 4am to well cared for dogs and hotel level preparations + cleaning was amazing. It isn't the first time Daniel has left the place better than he found it; it's an extraordinary level of care for a home. The most important thing is the care he gives our pups. It's easy to see that they've had the company they needed. They're not in a panic and they're properly fed. We have three fifty pound females that are a handful. They don't like to eat when we're gone, and they have resource guarding problems that Daniel has always managed extremely well. This time was no exception. We got daily pictures and updates and the ladies ate every day which is no small feat. I'm sure we're going to still be finding the above-and-beyond things he did for us for the next several days. Laundered linens, bonus snacks, and pressure-washed patio pavement (just cause he likes doing it!) are the tip of the iceberg. We're so grateful to have managed to book him in time for this trip, holiday travel is stressful enough and not having to worry about our ladies or home is the biggest relief. Thank you Daniel!
Daniel is a TRUE professional. We have a big pet family with a lot of energy, and it can definitely be a handful at times — but he handled everything with ease. We were nervous about traveling for our vacation, but Daniel was absolutely the best person for the job. He went above and beyond by doing multiple home visits beforehand to make sure our pets felt comfortable with him, and he was fantastic from the start. While we were away, he checked in regularly, sent photos, and spent real quality time with each of our pets. We genuinely appreciate his professionalism, his communication, and the level of care he showed our pets and our family. He made them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommend!
We love Danny and more importantly Phoebe loves him.

Schedule
Unless there are specific schedules for your pet, I like to invite them to hang out with me. I am a more homebody than pioneer but love some time outside with them… all other work income is managed from my phone or laptop so they mesh with my hobbies and work. This is just generally the norm but far from the rule if there are specifics you’d like to discuss. When I housesit it’s all about the pets and property first and then how my day fits around it instead of a secondary duty.
