Availability
I work in San Francisco during the day, which means I can only do visits in the evening, usually after 6:30pm on weekdays. I am also available to do morning, midday, and evening visits on the weekend, depending on availability.

About Danielle T.

Safety, trust & environment
I offer Bunny Boarding in my home for a single or bonded pair (or trio depending on their space needs). They stay in my office in my condo, which means I will be around them a lot throughout the day, and away from hub-bub of other animals (like you might expect at other boarding locations) so it's easy to keep things quite and low-stress. For drop-in visits for cats/bunnies, I think it's best to build a little trust first, usually treats and play, but it's always based on what the kitty is in the mood for. Sometimes just sitting quietly with them giving them company is exactly what they want. If they enjoy it, I love giving brushies. Cuddles and petties are an essential and core part of the menu (and personally my favorite part), but I always read body language and energy cues as to how much affection they are interested in at the moment.
Information Danielle T. would like to know about your pet
I have experience with special needs animals (additional charges apply), and have experience with general behavioral challenges. Please speak with me about the needs of your pet and I will let you know if I am able to support you with care for them.
A typical day
Bunnies generally want companionship, so I focus on spending time petting and "cuddling" next to them. I like to offer their greens as treats throughout the day giving them moments of stimulation. I am happy to allow them to wander and explore my downstairs area when I am there to watch them, which is entirely bunny proofed. If I am granted permission, I will make them toys and give them chew treats, based on what mom/dad says is ok during their stay.

Pet care experience
Happily proving evening visits once a day for your beloved kitty or bunny (same rate as cats) Hi! My name is Danielle, and I'm an animal lover to the core! While I had my special needs rabbit, I realized how hard it was to find an experienced bunny baby-sitter, especially one that was able to administer medications and care. Now that my little bun has passed away, I thought I could offer this much-needed service to other bunny parents out there. I work from home and between having been previously employed at House Rabbit Society Headquarters, and also at an animal hospital for just over 7 years, I have had both actual training and years of experience to bring to the table...well over 20 years! You can trust that I will care for your little one as if they were my own. I have experience with special needs (medications, injections, fluid therapy, food prep, etc.), as well as a valuable understanding of bunny, cat, and dog behaviors and body language. I treat animals like family members and your fur-baby will be no different! I very much look forward to meeting you and your furry loved one! :)
