The paw-fect play date!

Pet care experience

Thank you so much for stopping by! I'm Danielle! I just moved back home to the Hudson Valley from South Carolina. My love for animals is astronomical and it has been since I can remember. I owned an American Eskimo, Mia, for 7 years before she passed away April 2023 from cancer. She was the light of my life. Bella, my 6 year old rescue, has helped me tremendously through the process. She is the sweetest, most loving creature. I call myself "The paw-fect play date" because I genuinely care about your furry family member as if it were my own. Trust, love, care, affection, attention, and A LOT of play are my top priorities when it comes to your home and your pet! When your pet is with me it's your time to breathe and relax and go about your day without having to worry :)

Danielle was amazing!!! We were out of town at our beach condo & didn’t know anyone to walk our dog while we were going to be gone for a long time. Danielle was super easy to communicate with in the app & she gave me her cell # as well. We agreed on a time & she showed up exactly when she said she would & took our dog for a walk. She sent us pictures & an update on him peeing & pooping :). We felt very comfortable letting Danielle into our home even thought we didn’t know her. You can tell that she LOVES animals. We are so grateful to have found her to take care of our dog & will DEFINITELY use her again!

Wow, where do I start. Danielle is more than I and Larry the Cat ever hoped for. She's very attentive to Larry and kept us informed daily. She goes out of her way ! She quite honestly tops !

Danielle is really the best! She's taken care of both of our dogs and our cat and been nothing but amazing! She makes sure we're updated and takes care of our pups like her own. Danielle is always the first person we think of when we need anything for our babies! 10/10 recommend

Information Danielle M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has has special accommodations it needs and I am happy to oblige to whatever they may be. Example, if we’re on a walk they need to stay away from other dogs, feel free to let me know!

A typical day

I love to take my dog to the lake, a walk around the park, or a simple stroll around the block or on a trail. I enjoy playing catch whether that be with a ball or frisbee, or kicking around a ball together. In the summertime I like to let my dog enjoy a splash in the pool or lake. If your dogs are more of the indoor-sy type-- no worries! I can accompany that, too! Teaching simple commands like sit, playing tug-of-war, or just sitting down and giving endless scratches, is no problem for me! Whatever your pets needs are... I will make sure they are well taken care of :)

My job is seasonal so I figured the winter months back in New York would be a good time to start my Rover profile again. With that being said, I will have mostly open availability for any care needs!
