Pet care experience

Lifelong animal lover!

As a former vet tech, a pet rescue volunteer, and a lifelong animal lover, your beloved family member will be in good hands. I’ve had cats and dogs throughout my life, and have cared for other animals (birds, rabbits, lizards) as well. My personal furbabies are used to “new” friends, but I have the means to keep them separated as desired. Does your dog like to get on the couch? Absolutely, if that’s ok with you! I have also worked with dog trainers over the years and I’m happy to implement basic commands, if desired. You can rest assured that your beloved pet will be treated just like one of my own! I live in the gated community of Laurel Valley, with ample space to walk your furry friend. If you are concerned about your pet with other animals I am happy to keep them separated from mine, and I have no problem letting your pet sleep in bed with me if you prefer! I also have a large crate if preferred, and have lots of experience with crate training.

Danita is amazing! She took the best car of my senior lab with DCM, he has lots of medications. Danita sent me lots of pics & great on communication, letting me know how Big Bubby was doing a few times daily. She was the perfect person for my dog’s situation & I highly recommend her! 😃

Doggy Day Care • Jul 01, 2026

Danita took great care of our 13 year old cockapoo while we were visiting the Smokies and had a long hike day planned. She did a zoom meet-and-greet with us ahead of time and was very attentive to his/our needs. She was willing to do an early drop off and communicated with us throughout the day with lots of pictures. She has pets of her own but is able to keep them separate as needed. Quincy came home happy and tired and we would definitely use her again if in the area!

Very thoughtful. We were happy with pre-trip visit. Danita was very warm with our pets, thoughtful with updates, and very kind a communicative. Our pets were very happy when we returned. We will definitely trust her with our fur babies in the future!
