Responsible animal person
Pet care experience
My family has affectionately nicknamed me "Dr Doolitle", because since I was in elementary school I have taken on the role of animal caretaker for my families dogs and cats over the years. The dogs have ranged from a small Shitzu, to a medium pitbul/lab mix to a large wolfhound! Now that I have moved to DC I am living in a home that does not allow pets and I would love to have the opportunity to care for dogs again; taking them for walks, petting them and giving them frequent attention. I am comfortable with young and old dogs and have had experience cleaning up after messy animals. As for my availability I work Full-tine in DC Monday-Friday and will not have afternoon availability and prefer that new sitting requests are booked at least a week in advance so that I have enough time to schedule a meet and greet.
Reviews
We have used Danielle multiple times to housesit for our dog and cat and she has been great. Loves the animals, always sends updates with pictures and is very reliable. We will continue to rely on Danielle as long as she is in the area.
Danielle did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs while we were on vacation. She sent us updates and pics periodically to let us know all was well. We will not hesitate to book her again when we need a sitter for our dogs.
Great job - happy dogs.
Danielle was great and our dog Charlie liked her right away. We will definitely book her to watch our boy again.

Safety, trust & environment
I make sure I speak with owners before I visit about their rules and expectations. I confirm I have contact info and know where food and medicine is.
Information Danielle W. would like to know about your pet
I like to know their temperament and if they are good with other pets. If they have rules about food they are and are not allowed to eat and if they are allowed on furniture
A typical day
I take dogs for walks, play fetch, make sure I give them lots of attention and pets. My walks are normally an average of 30 min but open for longer or shorter.
