About: I’ve shared my life with cats for years — currently with my 10-year-old cat, Lux, who has taught me everything about patience, body language, and earning a cat’s trust.

I’m experienced with everything from shy or independent cats to affectionate lap warmers. I know how to handle routines, feeding schedules, litter maintenance, and giving medication if needed. Most importantly, I take the time to make each cat feel safe and loved in their own space — with plenty of chin scratches, playtime, and peaceful company while you’re away.

“Malia has genuinely saved my life this summer. Getting a puppy in the busiest part of my season with my partner away wasn’t our smartest move but we just knew we’d never find another one like Bear and had to have him. He’s well crate trained and Malia pops over during the shifts I can’t have a family member over to let him out and play with him till I get home. This weekend she she watched him while I put in twenty four hours at work and it was such a weight off my mind knowing he was being so well taken care of. She’s a great communicator and sends photo updates and he’s just grinning away. I literally don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for her and the care she takes of our fur baby.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up in a household with five dogs and three cats, so caring for pets has always been a part of my daily routine. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to person for friends and family whenever they need someone reliable to watch their pets while they’re away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s taking dogs on walks, playing with them, or giving cats the attention and affection they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were my own. I currently serve in the military, which has helped me develop strong responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail. While I work during the day, I have the flexibility to stop by during lunch breaks and am available before and after work for visits, walks, feedings, and quality time with your pets. My schedule is generally very open outside of work hours, and I do my best to accommodate each pet owner’s needs. You can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and committed to making sure your pets are well cared for while you’re away Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is always to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention and exercise. My apartment complex has plenty of walking areas and open space, making it a great environment for dogs who enjoy getting outside and exploring. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to stick to their normal routine so they feel relaxed and secure while their owner is away. Every pet is different, and I’m happy to adapt to their individual needs, energy levels, and personalities.

“Danielle did an excellent job with Missy. She stayed in contact with me and answered every text that I sent her about Missy. She sent photos of Missy daily, .the photos helped me to be able to see with my own eyes that Missy was being well cared for. When I came for Missy she was clean, happy and I saw no signs of neglect. Thank you Danielle for your hard work and dedication.”
