Danielle was great making sure our heeler Indiana was kept company and got his exercise while we were out of town!

Danielle took very good care of Tucker; he was happy and healthy when I returned home. The reason I did not give her 5 stars is because she never communicated with me the entire time I was gone. I realize this was a short sit, but I never received a text or photo/video indicating how he was doing. I had to contact her the 1st night to ask her how things were going, and she never communicated again until I let her know the last night of the sit what time I would be arriving home. I didn't contact her after the first night because I knew if there was a problem, she would get in touch with me. However, it woild have been nice just to hear from her at least once on how things were going. Also, while I realize her main priority was to take care of my dog, she did not wash any of the containers of his mashed green beans and left the spoon used to dish out the green beans completely unwashed, with green bean remnants stuck to the spoon! She also did not wash out his food bowl, which also had green bean pieces stuck to it. I certainly didn't expect her to clean the house, but I felt I should not have had to come home to find dirty containers on the counter along with a very dirty spoon. The day prior to the sit. I had the house completely cleaned so she would have a nice clean house to stay in. If you are looking for someone to just look after your pet, then I would recommend her as your sitter. But if you also have expectations that you will receive periodic communication from her and you won't come home to find dirty food containers/utensils on your counter, you may want to consider another sitter.

Danielle was great with the pups. They really seemed to enjoy her company and reacted well to her, especially our more nervous dog. She has great dog energy. She is top-notch and we will use her if she is available for our next trip.
