Ratings and reviews
Danielle is great. She has stayed at my house and taken care of my dog and two cats many times. I know my animals are loved and cared for. She sends updates and videos and is helpful and pays attention to details. I am always happy when Danielle is available to take care of my pets.
Danielle takes amazing care of Glory - and, as my husband says, Glory comes back smarter every time!
Glory loves going to Danielle’s and having the chance to play with Gibuu. Danielle works on training points with Glory so she comes home even better than when she left!
Danielle was lovely to my Frank and I felt very at peace with the fact that he was so well cared for.
Danielle has stayed with my dog and two cats for long stays and short. She is the best pet sitter I could ask for - professional, safety conscious, neat and tidy. I know my animals are loved and cared for. Her puppy- in-training is polite as can be and bonds and plays with my animals. She communicates regularly and sends pics. I have only good things to say about her and Gibuu. Thank you Danielle!!
Danielle was great with our little snuggle puggle! She let Maggie always be touching her and let us know that she was having a great time with her and Gibuu. Already have her booked again for our next trip!

Schedule
I am retired with very few demands on my time. I train only one (full-time, live-in) service dog at a time so my hours are completely flexible. Service in the Duncan, Shawnigan, and Ladysmith area. No service to Lake Cowichan.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety first! Ensuring that the environment is safe, secure, and without fear or stress is priority one. After that, it is meeting the physical, nutritional, and emotional needs of the specific pet.

A typical day
Activities will depend on the needs of each individual animal and their guardians’ wishes. As we say in our classes, "Train the dog you have."
