For the Love of Paws

m.

October 2017. If I remember correctly, her mom was there helping her out. Both Danielle and her mom were so incredibly sweet and informative. Seeing that we were planning on having our Maltipoo, Parker, in our wedding, I couldn’t wait to get home and tell my fiancé about For the Love of Paws. I thought the concept of Danielle’s company was BRILLIANT!! I immediately started following For the Love of Paws on Instagram and Facebook. Shortly thereafter, Danielle posted a Facebook contest for a free wedding day of her services! I thought, hmm I’ll never win but why not, let’s give it a shot! I got a bunch of my friends and family to start tagging us and posted an adorable (duh) picture of Parker – and WE WON! I was SO EXCITED! Fast forward a few months, we were planning our engagement shoot with Sara Zarrella Photography. We used this opportunity to hire Danielle to hang with and help out Parker during the shoot. Danielle was also very responsive on emails and even coordinated with our photographer. I’ll be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever told Danielle this, but the engagement shoot was sort of a “test” to make sure she wasn’t a crazy dog lady (ha! Sorry!) We were BEYOND relieved when we met again at the shoot and she was normal – and awesome, seriously! She was planning her wedding as well and we connected right off the bat! Parker was immediately drawn to her (aside from the fact she has the yummiest treats!). It was a sweltering summer day in Newport and she could see how flustered I was when I rushed back from getting my hair and make-up done. She sprang into action and took care of Parker. I came armed with a few different bow tie options and to my surprise, so did she! I was able to return all the new Parker accessories I bought – and when you’re planning a wedding, every penny counts! Danielle was so patient all day. She got in the car with us to go to three different locations around Newport and kept Parker occupied and ready for his close-ups when need be. We couldn’t wait to see her again for our wedding. Okay, wedding time. Leading up to the wedding, she again was very on top of everything (coordinated with our photographer, kept on me for a timeline, etc.). Danielle asked if she could bring the newest member of the For the Love of Paws team, Brittany, for training purposes. Of course, we said yes! If she was anything like Danielle, we knew we and Parker would love her too. They were on time and great partners to have during the day. They got Parker ready in his tux and flower leash (leash cred: @bloombox_flowers) and promptly had Parker ready to go throughout the day. We were so confident in Danielle and Brittany that we didn’t think twice about what was going on with Parker throughout the day. It was 100% one less thing we needed to worry about. We HIGHLY recommend For the Love of Paws for not just your wedding-related needs, but for any event that you may need a human friend for your furry friend. Danielle has been the best to work with and we wish Love of Paws nothing but success in the future!

dirty the dress. Would definitely recommend!

oot with Lauren Dobish Photography and Danielle (For the Love of Paws). We have a super high energy pup who hardly sits still but when we paired her p awith Danielle (seconds after meeting her) she was the star of our portrait session! I can only imagine what Danielle could do if she had met Callie before hand! If you're looking for your dog to be included in your special day or for photographs, Danielle can make it happen! She completely removed the stress factor of having a high energy dog on the beach, that had to be kept on leash the whole photo shoot! Danielle was willing to run around with Callie to wear her out, she had all the treats and squeaks to get Callie to look at the camera. She also held onto Callie (read: played with her/wore her out was absolutely amazing) while we had a few portraits taken without the dog. I cannot imagine our photo session, with Callie, without Danielle! She made the whole experience stress-free and was absolutely incredible! She is super kind and energetic, she is easy to get along with and her love for animals is evident! Danielle was such a huge help! We couldn't have done it without you, Danielle! if you want to include your pup/animal in without having to worry, For the Love of Paws is the vendor for you!

she found us an affordable soggy sitter for the wedding and honeymoon! On our wedding day, Danielle drove from her home to Leominster to pick up our pups, then chauffeured them to our wedding in Spencer. She was not only early, but she captured videos and pictures from the moment she picked our fur babies up. She assured us that moose (our crazy rhodie) would be nice and tired prior to the event to make sure he was well-behaved. Danielle made sure that our pups were well-prepared to walk down the aisle, had a squeeky toy to get their attention for pictures, captured many beautiful pictures of our pups, and ended the evening with a doggy donut for both moose and Leilah. We also loved seeing her Instagram story of our dogs from when she picked them up to the end of the wedding. It was PAWfect :) Danielle was the best addition to our wedding vendors and she took the stress out of having our two dogs there! Thank you so much for everything! Moose & Leilah Carrier

eet Summer and go over details. It was immediately evident that she loves what she does. Summer and Danielle hit it off right away. On the day of the wedding, while we were off getting ready with our bridal parties, Danielle came to our home, picked Summer up and brought her to the Hornblower Garden at the Plimoth Plantation. Even in her wild excitement of celebrating our big day, she was perfectly handled by Danielle. For the Love of Paws is an absolutely magical service and we HIGHLY recommend it, especially if your fur baby means as much to you as Summer does to us!

before the wedding and spent time with Runtski (our yellow lab) to get to know her. Then Danielle traveled to Maine for our destination wedding to "handle" Runtski during the festivities. She was there when we needed and took care of everything without breaking a sweat. She shuttled Runtski around and kept her entertained and alert during pictures. She even managed to get some great behind the scenes shots with me and Runtski together before the ceremony. These images are priceless and some of my favorites from the day so far! You definitely don't want to worry about your dog during your big day so I wouldn't hesitate to hire Danielle. She truly is fantastic.

stake to not have her a part of your day as her services make a huge difference. Thank you, Danielle!!!

n...and then I met Danielle at a bridal expo! She arranged a couple of meet and greets prior to the wedding so Hallie (and us) would be comfortable. Then Danielle even helped my photographer with posing and coaching for photos! Not just a pet delivery and pickup service! This company is the best idea and Danielle is the best to run with it! I can’t recommend her enough!

elle came highly recommended from my florist, so I figured I'd send her an email to see how she could help. I got a response on the same day as my inquiry to For the Love of Paws and the next day we had a meet & greet set up. Danielle was so accommodating and met me and Lincoln at my house. He instantly loved her! I could tell right away that she truly had a love for dogs and her business. Danielle was so easy to talk to and plan with, all my worries went away with how to organize getting Lincoln to our wedding. She had it all under control! On the wedding day, Danielle arrived early with Lincoln and had him all dressed up in a bow tie. She practiced with the flower girl walking Lincoln down the aisle and I didn't have to worry about a thing. We took pictures with him (with her help of a squeaky toy) and once the ceremony was over she took him back to his boarder. It honestly couldn't have gone any better and we were so lucky that we found For the Love of Paws! I highly recommend using them for any events that you want your pups at! :)
