“Danielle is incredible. In a last minute pinch she helped care for my animals. She came over the day of my request just to meet them and every single one of them, including my anxiety riddled shiba rescue took to her immediately. She is intelligent, compassionate, and did an absolutely incredible job. Highly recommend.”

“Honestly could not say better things about Rhiana. This was my first time using Rover, and I’m glad I got her as my first cat-sitter! She kept me updated everyday with pictures. My boys seemed to really like her 🥺 I expected them to be skiddish and run away, but they did not! My cats can sense when people have good intentions, and they were very trusting of her. I would definitely hire her again!”
