Passionate animal lover!
Pet care experience
I’m a passionate animal lover with years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s feeding, walking, grooming, or just providing plenty of love and playtime, I take pride in ensuring every pet feels happy, safe, and well-cared for while you’re away. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them as such, offering reliable, trustworthy, and personalized care tailored to their unique needs and personalities. I have a loving nine-year-old Irish Setter, Shamus, who has laryngeal paralysis, giving me hands-on experience with dogs who need a little extra attention and care. I also have a two-year-old cat, Mochi, who adores snuggling. Whether it’s feeding, walking, grooming, or just providing plenty of love and playtime, I ensure every pet feels happy, safe, and well-cared for while you’re away.

Reviews
Lovely, trustworthy, cat loving and understanding, gave me lovely updates.
I can’t say enough great things about Daniella! She is so kind, professional, and my pup instantly loved her! She took such great care of him and our home. I highly recommend her!! Thank you, Daniella! Remi loved having you with him! 😊
Daniella was great caring for our two dogs. Will book her to watch them again next time.
She was pleasant and communicated when needed. We appreciated her help and will reach out to her again in the future.
About Daniella S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine to help them feel safe and comfortable. I follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, playtime, grooming, and medication schedules. I make sure to provide plenty of attention, affection, and play to keep pets happy and engaged. I also keep the home tidy, cleaning up after the pets and ensuring their spaces are neat and organized. Communication is key, so I provide updates and photos to reassure owners that their pets are in great hands.
Information Daniella S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any medical needs or allergies! Knowing their daily routine, behavior and general temperament will be useful as well:) Additionally, any other information you feel is pertinent to your pets care and your peace of mind.
A typical day
A typical day starts with morning feeding and cleaning up pet areas, followed by some quality time, such as playing or cuddling, to start their day off right. Throughout the day, I ensure they stick to their regular schedule—whether that’s meal times, bathroom breaks, or naps. For active pets, I include engaging activities like interactive toys or games to keep them mentally stimulated. Evenings are perfect for wind-down time, such as grooming, brushing, or relaxing together, ensuring they feel loved and secure until their owners return. Fun Activities: I tailor activities to the pet’s personality and preferences. For playful cats, I use wand toys, laser pointers, or puzzles to keep them active and entertained. Snuggly cats enjoy lap time and gentle brushing sessions. Dogs might get walks, fetch, or tug-of-war. If a pet loves exploring, I may set up a safe space for enrichment games like treat hunts. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, loved, and engaged during our time together.
