Loving Care, Your Home or Mine
Hi, I’m Danielle! Whether your pet stays in their familiar surroundings or spends time in my home, my goal is to provide thoughtful care that fits their routine and personality. I have five years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding routines, walks, oral medications as instructed, and the everyday details that help pets feel comfortable. Here’s how I can help: • House Sitting: Overnight companionship in your pet’s own home, plus two daytime care checks included in the nightly rate. These checks focus on needs such as potty breaks, meals, fresh water, and litter care. My overnight stays involve a late-night arrival and early-morning departure, making this a good fit for pets comfortable spending time independently between visits. • Boarding: Overnight stays in my home while you’re away. I work from home and can provide care during the workday, with regular potty breaks, attention, and time to rest. • Doggy Day Care: Daytime care in my home, with a balance of companionship, activity, potty breaks, and downtime. We’ll arrange drop-off and pickup times before booking. For Boarding and Day Care, I welcome up to two small or medium adult dogs from the same household. Guest dogs must be spayed or neutered. My home includes young children and two cats, so we’ll discuss compatibility before booking. Tell me about your pet, their routine, and the care you’re looking for—I’d love to see whether we’re a good fit!

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Danielle was very nice, but there were some issues. She did bring in a package for us with a meal kit and unpacked it into the fridge, which was much appreciated. However, she did not show up for the morning 1 hr drop-in on our final day of the booking. She added an extra 45 mins to the afternoon drop-in, but that still meant our kitten was without human interaction and his regular food for way more time than we intended. Danielle didn’t reply to messages about this. We had mentioned when she asked about other time changes that we were flexible within 1-2 hrs of the scheduled time but this was far outside that window. Other drop-ins were marked on the rover card for longer (20-30 mins) than our doorbell records show. Overall we would have liked more communication and reliability for the time booked.
Danielle is my go-to for Groot when we are out of town!
I'm very grateful for Danielle's visits to feed the cats, especially given all of the snow she had to deal with.
Danielle has the best communication & I truly appreciate the care she gives my kitty.
Thanks for being available last minute! Danielle was a great communicator and met all of Howdy’s needs.
Danielle’s communication was amazing-I hadn’t left my new kitty before & she was so patient and reassuring to me. He was in happy spirits, not stressed or dismayed when I got home so I know he was well taken care of. Super grateful for the help but also reassuring communication made my time away so much better.

Schedule
I offer House Sitting, Boarding, and Doggy Day Care throughout the week, subject to calendar availability. For House Sitting, I provide overnight care with a late-night arrival and early-morning departure, plus two daytime care checks: one between 8:30 am and noon, and one between 3:00 and 4:00 pm. These checks focus on your pet’s agreed care needs. This arrangement suits pets comfortable spending time independently between visits. We’ll confirm exact overnight hours and arrival/departure-day coverage before booking. For Boarding and Doggy Day Care, I work from home and can provide care during the workday, including potty breaks every 2–4 hours during the day. Drop-off and pickup times are arranged before booking.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I follow your care instructions and respect your pet’s familiar routines, belongings, and home-access rules. For Boarding and Day Care, my home has a fenced yard, young children, and two resident cats. I welcome up to two small or medium adult dogs from one household at a time. We’ll discuss your dog’s comfort around children and cats and agree on a suitable sleeping and resting arrangement before booking. Crate training is not required.
A typical day
I plan care around your pet’s usual meals, potty routine, energy level, and rest needs. For dogs, that can include a relaxed sniff walk, playtime, and quiet companionship. For cats, I provide feeding, fresh water, litter care, and play or affection at their pace. House Sitting focuses on overnight companionship, morning care, and the two included daytime checks. Boarding and Day Care include a balance of potty breaks, activity, attention, and downtime in my home. We’ll agree on activities that suit your pet and the booked service.

Let me know about separation anxiety, resource guarding, escape habits, reactivity, or any bite history so we can assess whether the care arrangement is a good fit. For Boarding and Day Care, please describe their experience around young children and cats, plus their usual sleeping and resting setup. Crate training is optional, not a requirement. Before booking, we’ll confirm the service hours and any care tasks that need specific timing.
