Information Daniele M. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog viscous in any way? Has he or she ever bit anyone? Are they good walkers? I don’t have a breed preference. They are all cute. Do your cats try and escape? I need to know these things.

A typical day

I’m a snuggler but we all need a little bit of exercise. A walk around the block is fine, if you live near a dog park, great. If I’m taking care of your cat and he/she is still active, let me know. I bring my laser pointer with me and sometimes cat nip.

#1 Cat Lady in Houston

Pet care experience

Not just a cat lady but THE cat lady. Your fur babies will be treated like my fur babies. I have lived with and took care of cats all my life. I have several spoiled fur babies now. I have done volunteer work in the cat department at the HSPCA. I have several friends who rely on me to take care of their cats when they go out of town. I am known not just as a cat lady but THE cat lady. Every cat is unique and must be treated as such. If your cat is friendly and outgoing, great. If she’s shy, that’s ok too. I have had my share of aggressive ones as well. Nothing new to me. Your babies will be well taken care of if cared for by me.

Daniele was a real pro! This was our first trip away from our recently adopted cats. We were a bit anxious about leaving them. However, they were in great hands with Daniele checking in. We would to use her services again and highly recommend to others!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
