Safety, trust & environment

As a helicopter dog mom you can be sure your fur baby will be safe while in my care. Because I don’t have a yard I take my pup on daily adventures! Whether it’s to the park to play with other dogs, on hikes or a beach walk (I live right across the street) your fur baby will surely have lots of fun when staying with me! I currently have a friendly 3 y/o border collie who love to make new friends, especially since he recently lost his big brother. I also have a cat who’s been raised around dogs his whole life and is very patient. I am clean and organized, you can trust that both your fur babies and home will be in good hands when booking with me. As a nanny in my past I know how important it is to come home to happy and tired babies as well as a nice clean home! When boarding in my home I can provide food/water bowls, poop bags/leashes, clean beds/blankets and lots of different toy options. I also have various enrichment toys like snuffle mats, puzzles, lick mats etc. I have one large dog cage available for use. Of course if it makes your pup more comfortable to have their own items that is perfectly fine too! I'll be sure to keep track of their belongings and return items clean and cared for. Communication is essential, please stay in contact with me before and during boarding/sitting. Please notify me when your are on your way for pick-up and drop-off. I am happy to provide multiple photo updates throughout the day so you can keep up with your pups adventures! If you will be without service for an extended period please let me know beforehand. If you have any questions or concerns please let me know, I aim to make each boarding/sitting experience easy and stress free for both humans and fur babies.

Information Danielle M. would like to know about your pet

Please have your dogs on flee control! When boarding in my home, all dogs must be on flee control and up to date on shots. All dogs boarded with me must be well socialized and show no signs of aggression since my dog will also be present in the home. Additionally, dogs must also be comfortable around cats and men. Meet & greets are welcome! 15-20 minutes max. I would love to meet your fur baby and go over their routine to keep things normal and comfortable for them while you're away. When booking with me whether in your home or mine I would love to get to know who I'll be caring for. Please include your pets name, breed and age as well as little description about them and their personality. Feel free to include pictures or any specifics your pet may require while in my care. Your pups safety and health is my primary concern while in my care. Emergency contact information is required before your pup stays with me! Please provide your primary phone number, your vets name & contact information & an emergency contact name/number. This allows me to act quickly in case of an emergency.

I love to to get my steps in walking dogs! Typically we go to the park or walk the beach path, I also take my dog on a nightly neighborhood walk which your pup can join too! In addition to exercise your fur babies will receive lots of cuddles and play time as well as treats (if allowed)! I would be happy to keep up with your pets normal daily routine to help keep them the most comfortable while you're away.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Dani 👋🏼 I love animals! I have been caring for animals since I was a young child. Growing up people used to call our house a zoo! I’m familiar with cats and dogs, of course. Additionally I was raised with lots of birds and small animals like bunnies & rats, too. I am comfortable around dogs of all sizes and have experience with various breeds like Shar-pei's, Golden Retrievers, Labradors, Border Collies and more! I have many years of cat experience as well. I will be sure to keep your kitty's food bowl full and fresh water offered daily in a clean bowl. I will keep their litter box clean and be sure to cuddle and play with them as much as they prefer! I'll also be happy to provide any enrichment or treats like catnip or canned food/tuna. I know some cats are snuggle bugs while others prefer their space and I will happily provide what your kitty needs while respecting their space and boundaries.

Danielle was amazing! Everything went perfectly and smoothly. My dog loved her and loved staying with her. They went on a ton of long walks so expect your pupper to get their exercise! I also have a ton a great photos from Danielle that are far better than mine that I get to add to my collection. Highly recommend!!!

Danielle was AMAZING! Immediately felt comfortable trusting her with my dog. She sent me pictures and updates almost every activity that she did. The constant updates helped me feel at ease. Communication I believe is the key, and Danielle provides a full service! Definitely using Danielle next time I’m in the Huntington Beach area! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! A++++++

Danielle was truly everything we could have hoped for in someone caring for our Leo. From the moment we met her, it was clear how caring, attentive, and genuinely loving she is with animals. She treated Leo like he was her own, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She kept us updated frequently with clear, thoughtful messages and photos, and it was obvious Leo was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for the entire time. One of the sweetest parts of the experience was seeing how close Leo became with her dog, they became such great buddies, and we already can’t wait for them to spend time together again. We are incredibly grateful to have found Danielle and will absolutely continue working with her in the future. We recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and truly exceptional with pets.

Both of my dogs absolutely loved their time at Danielle’s! Not only did she spoil them with lots of walks, playtime and doggie pupsicle treats but her dog Finley was so sweet and welcoming to my pups as well! The communication throughout the visit was stellar and got lots of cute pics! 10 out of 10 would recommend Danielle as your dog sitter and my fur babies will definitely be returning.
