The best care for your best friend!

Pet care experience

I was grew up on a farm and have spent most of my life with animals. I worked at a local vet clinic in high school, trained horses and I have worked in rescue. My family always had at least one dog for as long as I can remember. I got my first Border Collie, Dexter, when I was thirteen. Dex and I did everything together and he's the one who made me fall in love with Border Collies and all things dog related. I have been training, showing and breeding for nearly 23 years. The dogs I have now are involved in disc, agility, dock diving, obedience and herding. I enjoy all animals but dogs and horses will always have a special place in my heart because so much of my life has been spent with them.

Danielle is wonderful! She's so good with our rescue dogs and cat crew. We always appreciate her timely updates and attention to detail. She is a caring and thoughtful person and we love working with her.

Danielle was wonderful with our rescue crew of three dogs and one kitty! She made sure they were fed, had fresh water, took their meds, and got lots of play and snuggle time. She cleaned up after the pups, scooped the litter box, did laundry, and brought in packages. She sent regular updates with photos and video and was just generally good to work with. Thanks to Danielle, we were able to travel and know that our fur family was safe. We will call on her again!

Danielle was so great! She kept in communication letting me know how Brandy was doing throughout the weekend and Brandy had a fun time playing with her dogs! We will be back in the future. :)

Danielle was wonderful with my dog Ginger. They bonded very quickly and Ginger was so comfortable with Danielle that she slept at her feet. ?

I'm not watching pets at my home right now because my oldest dog doesn't like strangers and I don't want to upset him if I don't have to. *Currently rewriting my profile please excuse the chaos*

Information Danielle R. would like to know about your pet

All breeds, sizes and ages are fine with me as long as they are up to date on vaccines and parasite control. I have no problems with reactive, not dog friendly pets or pets that have behavior or medical issuses. No one is perfect and I don't expect them to be. I can easily accommodate almost anything as long as I know ahead of time so I can make sure everyone is as safe as possible. I ask that all dogs be up to date on vaccinations and parasite treatments because I occasionally have puppies and handle them at work and I want to minimize risks as much as possible.

A typical day

We spend as much time outside as we can. Whether it's playing in the yard or going for walks. We usually end up exploring at a local park.
