Information Danielle C. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care possible, I like to learn as much as I can about your pet before you book. Please share details about their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medical conditions, medications, allergies, behavioral quirks, fears, and training cues they respond to. Let me know how they do with other dogs, new people, loud noises, or being left alone. The more I understand about their routine and personality, the more smoothly their stay will go. My goal is to make your time away stress-free—for both you and your dog.

A typical day

Mornings start with a potty break and some light exercise to get the day going, followed by breakfast and fresh water. Throughout the day, I incorporate walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection. If your dog enjoys social time, we’ll include interactive play; if they prefer a calmer environment, I’m happy to provide a relaxed, cozy atmosphere. I maintain consistent routines to help your pet feel secure and comfortable, and I always send updates with photos so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for.

Reliable dog owner you can trust

Pet care experience

Hi there! I am a dog-lover who knows firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pup in someone else’s hands. I’ve had Boxers, a Golden retriever, a pitbull mix, and now two beloved Frenchies. I’ve had of dogs at all stages of their lives — puppyhood through elder years — and have taken care of dogs with special needs as well. One of my Frenchies was born blind, and I’ve fostered other blind dogs as well. I offer a safe, calm, and loving home environment where your dog will get tons of attention, cuddles, and care. I keep my frenchies and your dog in separate spaces so everyone stays comfortable and stress-free — no surprise introductions or unpredictable dynamics. Your pup gets their own space to settle in and feel at ease. I have a fenced yard and have removed all poisonous plants. I know what it means to trust someone with your fur baby and I don’t take that lightly! I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely passionate about making sure your dog has a wonderful stay.

Danielle was wonderful and very accommodating. She made herself available on short notice, and she did a great job keeping Molly happy while we were away. Maybe a little too happy… Molly didn’t seem to want to leave! Thank you, Danielle!

Danielle was amazing. Lots of pictures to let me know Molly was doing well. I felt confident about her care and attention. Molly liked being with Danielle. I would definitely board her again with Danielle. Very pleased!

5/5 stars - Danielle is the perfect dog sitter! She is responsible, thoughtful, highly communicative, and deeply caring when it comes to animals. She has watched my two boys a number of times and they always are sad to come home! She also frequently sent photos, videos and updates, so we knew how they were doing. Finally, she also was a foster for special needs animals before she found her second doggo - it’s one of the reasons we initially picked her as a dog sitter!
