Pet care experience

You'll get prof. photos and video!

My husband and I have started a media company but also we love dogs and pets! We would love to help you get amazing photos and video to cherish forever! You could even start your pet an instagram! I am an animal lover to the core! I have always been the crazy dog lady! I have always had dogs in my life I would not want it any other way. I walked dogs in Arlington for over four years. Many of my clients families become friends and like family to me! Dogs have always been very important to me. They even were my reason I went to school for photography! I love photographing my clients and finding new ways to photograph Why I love dog walking and sitting? I have had dogs all my life. When I moved to Northern Virginia and I immediately knew I wanted to walk dogs or do anything with dogs! Since then I have been walking dogs for over 14 years! I can administer medication and have been certified in the past in animal first aid/cpr.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Each service I offer depends on schedule but when taking care of your pet I make sure that your routine is honored in the best way for everyone. Your pet is a priority and we will make sure they are comfortable and feel safe. From the toys they love to the food they eat, it will all remain the same. I want to just be another family member staying and taking care of your pet. My hope is that it will be like you never left.

Schedule

I'm a photographer and I work throughout the week three to four hours here and there. But pet care is my original love and passion and I make it a priority to make sure your pet is loved and cared for. If looking for 24 hour stay with overnight, a typical schedule looks like a morning walk with feedings, midday walk (can be more than one, please indicate needs in any communication), an evening walk with dinner then finally I'll stay with your pet in your home or if boarding dog will stay at my home in a crate or bed provided. Please be aware that I do not work from home and work outside with other pet visits and photography jobs. This means if you need more time with longer stays or you need around the clock full 24 hr care, there will be additional costs.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Danielle can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I need to know all the house rules! Does the dog sleep in the bed? What are the dogs normal sleeping and peeing times? How much food does the dog get and does he gets into anything? Any quirks that I should be aware of? Any allergies? Or medical needs or past medical issues, like seizures or hives? Are there treats/toys the dog shouldn't have? What areas of the house is the dog allowed? Anything and everything so I can make my stay go as smoothly as possible!
