Your dog is family | home all day!

Hey, I'm Dani! I work full time from home so I can hang with your pet all the time! My goal is to look after your pet just how YOU would. So you tell me how you like your dogs day to run and I’ll run it. I’ve been on Rover for years and love it. I have a 5 year old who loves the pets and it’s her job to feed your fur babies. We have a small yard but also are a short walk from two dog runs. For an extra fee we will wash your dog too! NOTE: sometimes the Rover map shows that I live in West Austin but I don’t, I live in Kyle. I am not sure why it does that! PS: I do have a busy meeting schedule and a personal life! I ask that you give me an accurate drop off and pick up time so I can schedule my day. Often people are actually just guessing and much much later than there listed time on the booking and it really throws things for a loop!

Once again Dani made me feel at ease while I was away from my baby girl. My girl loves being with Dani’s family. Great photos daily of her on walks and smiling at their home.

Danielle and her family are the best dog sitters. I’ve used her services for 2 years and my dog is so loved when in their care. My dog, Molly is treated like family and that decreases my anxiety about leaving my baby. She gets treats, goes on walks and gets to people watch from the cute yard. I will always recommend Danielle and continue to use her to care for my baby when I am away.

Danielle was great with Olive! She sent a lot of pictures and messages letting me know how she was doing. Would definitely rebook with her.

Danielle and her family took such great care of Tavi. She was so relaxed when I picked her up. You could tell that she felt comfortable and loved. Highly recommend!

I'm up really early, so your dog can go out as early as 6am usually. Last call is at 9pm. I work from home and meetings dictate walk times but usually one in the morning and one in the afternoon.

Safety, trust & environment

VERY rare for the house to be empty on the week day for more than a couple of hours. My kid has a nap schedule so we're guaranteed to not be gone all day.

A typical day

We will walk around the neighborhood and maybe run in the fenced park next to the house! If your dog loves to go for runs, so do I! If it's hot out we play with the hose a little. Sometimes they like to join me for work meetings, haha. Outside of that, the dogs just sleep, let's be real. They just need a human nearby!

If your pup doesn’t do children, let me know. It's possible that my daughter is with her Dad during your dogs stay and we may be able to work around it.
