The Exotic Pet Experts

My chameleon had an ongoing eye problem for several months. We went through several different trials with the vet with antibiotics and steroids for reducing inflammation. He recovered with some minor changes as enclosure, lighting, some supplementation and outdoor time. All lead by Danielle. The antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicine didn’t seem to do anything from our vet. He is doing so much better now he’s regained trust he’s shedding fully again. His appetite has significantly increased and more than anything, he trusts me and has become sociable again. Danielle is extremely knowledgeable, kind and patient. I highly recommend anybody with an exotic pet using her consultation services and extensive knowledge base. We think he had a vitamin A deficiency.

I received Danielle’s contact from my vet! She is absolutely amazing! First and foremost she is so incredibly responsive. I always got responses within a few hours. She is sooo incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. I have a tortoise with chronic mycoplasma, so her setup must be super dialed in. I was also having some behavioral issues due to the setup I had. She guided me so kindly and patiently (my tortoise was sick and I had become very anxious about it all the time) , helping me every step of the way. She helped me perfect the enclosure my baby needed to thrive. Ziggy is so happy (optimistic as the study says) and engaging in natural behavior and it’s truly beautiful to watch. Hopefully now that Danielle helped me, my tort can live with minimal flare ups in a near perfect environment. She helped clear up any confusion that you may find on the internet and provided me researched backed resources. If i could put more stars i would, thank you thank you thank you!

We had the pleasure of working with Danielle at the suggestion of our local vet. We had at the time recently adopted our sweet turtle Pumpernickle and needed lots of advice and help with his set up and overall care. Danielle offered us tons of advice from housing, feeding, health and his optimal happiness. Skeptical of how this would all work since we lived in different states, Danielle made it work beautifully through picture and video sharing and prompt and thorough emailing. Her guidance was truly appreciated and helpful and Pumpernickle is happy, healthy and thriving! Thank you Danielle!

Danielle is amazing! She made me feel seen has helped me so much in my first few weeks of being a bunny mom! I will continue seeking her guidance as my bunny grows.

Danielle has helped me with my multiple snakes. Highly recommend!!!!

Danielle helped immensely with my good boy Mango, Asian Water Monitor (Celebensis). I was worried about his inflamed toe, she took a look, assured me it was a common injury, gave me advice about what to look for, and how best to take care of it. Huge load off my mind. Mango was fine, but instead of simply stopping there, Danielle absolutely unloaded on critical information for Mango's enclosure, including some of the latest findings that I didn't know about (even with my *extensive* YEARS of research). Danielle was IMMENSELY helpful — and while I would have paid $800 to $1,000 for her consultation... She charged me less than $100. The value is absolutely insane. If you've got a problem with your exotic, there's no better deal. And even if you "KNOW" you've got all your bases covered, it's worth $100 to find out how you could care for your pet in an even better manner. Frankly, her small fee could save you hundreds... even thousands of dollars. It's an absolute no brainer.

Danielle has been so helpful with my rain frogs and my tegu! She actually worked with rain frogs in Africa and has been able to give great guidance on enclosure setup and conditions. With her help, my frogs and tegu are now thriving better than ever. I genuinely encourage anyone/everyone with an exotic pet to consult her!

I was recommended Danielle by an exotics vet. After suffering a loss of an animal, when I purchased my Dalmatian Hermann's tortoise hatchling, I decided to reach out. I wanted to find out as much information as I could about my new tortoise. To make things simple, over maybe 10-15 emails, you can learn more about an animal from Danielle then any YouTube video or "care sheet" online will provide. She pays attention to extreme detail and focuses on ensuring the animal you are seeking knowledge for will not just be healthy but thrive. Not only did she respond quickly, but she makes sure to not to undermine you or make caring for a high maintenance animal seem impossible. Through daily emails, she was able to guide me to ensure all aspects of care were covered. I have kept many different kinds of unusual pets. I was blown away by the amount of knowledge she had just on ONE creature. She answered ANY question I had and I will be returning to her as my tortoise grows. The amount of information and assistance I received I would've gladly paid MUCH more for. She is dedicated to these creatures in a Steve Irwin way and it really is a blessing to any exotic owner to have someone like this in their corner.

Danielle was very thorough. She helped me a lot as a first time gecko owner, guided me through the process of creating a lovely environment for my little man Pongo. If you need some guidance don’t hesitate in reaching out to her! 🙂

Danielle is amazing. I was referred to her website by my vet when I took my turtle in to a new vet for an emergency visit. She was lethargic and hadn’t wanted to go into the water for a while. She was having trouble swimming and wouldn’t dive anymore. Danielle was able to recommend changes to the habitat and diet as well as determined that my turtle was a female (which we didn’t know). It took time, but my turtle is doing great now. I would recommend The Other Pets to anyone who has questions about their “other” pet or wants information before getting a new pet.

I can’t say enough good things about The Other Pets. As someone relatively new to reptile care, I was initially overwhelmed trying to figure out how to properly set up a habitat and make sure my pet had everything it needed to thrive. The owner went above and beyond, not only was she incredibly knowledgeable, but she was also genuinely kind, patient, and clearly passionate about reptile health and well-being. She walked me through the entire habitat setup process, explaining what was essential and what would improve my reptile’s comfort and enrichment. What really stood out was how thoughtful the product suggestions were, everything recommended was practical, accessible, and tailored to my specific pet’s species (with link options include). I felt supported and empowered with good information. She also took the time to go over dietary guidance, which I truly appreciated. I left with a much clearer understanding of how to provide a balanced and species-appropriate diet, something that’s often hard to get reliable information on. It’s rare to find a small business that combines expert-level advice with such a supportive, welcoming approach. Whether you’re a first-time reptile owner or experienced and just looking for high-quality guidance, I highly recommend The Other Pets. They really care.

Danielle has been most helpful in helping me get started with my bearded dragon, Monty. As a small animal veterinarian, I feel very confident with dogs, cats, and small mammals, Monty is my first reptile pet. I did quite a bit of homework before I got her, but as there is a ton of inaccurate information out there, I wanted a little extra assurance that my husbandry was good to go. Danielle has helped me fine tune my set-up and care and I cannot thank her enough. She has responded quickly to my questions and has steered me well. Monty thanks her too 🙂 Happy lizard, happy customer! Thank you!!!

Danielle was WONDERFUL. I’ve learned so much from her and about my fish, and tank living that I did not know before. She was extremely patient and so helpful for the months I needed it. I definitely recommend if you need any help or knowledge on your aquarium life !

It’s my first time taking care of an exotic pet, and let me tell you, Danielle is absolutely the best!! She has been nothing but helpful, thoughtful, and she always provides such great advice on how to care for my baby red eared sliders. I would recommend her to anyone with exotic pets. She’s extremely knowledgeable in her field.

We just added a pet bunny to our family and Danielle has helped us every step of the way. Danielle came highly recommended by our veterinarian and she has been the absolute best resource. She helped us get ready for our sweet bunny’s arrival by offering personalized and detailed guidance on how to set up her pen and get all the items we needed ready for our bunny’s arrival. It’s been wonderful having Danielle’s continued support now that we have our bunny. Danielle helped us get her diet just right so she’s getting everything she needs to be a happy and healthy little bun! Danielle has also guided us on how to best introduce our 3 year old dog to our bunny and I’m happy to say that the interactions have been very positive. We’re so thankful to be working with Danielle. She has made being a first-time bunny owner a great experience!

Was absolutely awesome experience helping me prepare and execute bringing my Hermann tortoise Rubi to outside living and brumation. She explained everything answered all my questions and eased my concerns! It’s a little scary having your tortoise in the ground with freezing temps! But thanks to all her guidance and reassurance we had a successful brumation, Rubi is happy healthy and thriving!! I cannot recommend this service enough.

Danielle has helped me so much with my sweet girl Hikari. With out her knowledge and guidance I would have missed out on some crucial steps needed to take care of my little squirrelly girl. Danielle is very detailed with her instructions, she is very quick to respond and she also checks in to make sure everything is ok on this end. I am very greatful to have her help so Hikari has a happy, healthy life and can thrive. Thank you Danielle for all you have done for us!

I'm a first time guinea pig mom and the consultants with 'The Other Pets' have made my experience a dream. I have had so many questions, and they have been able to answer all of them with incredibly fast responses. I feel seen and cared for, and I feel like my piggies are just as personally cared for as well. This gives me so much peace of mind when I encounter something new or am waiting for a vet visit. Thank you friends!!

I had an accident with my baby pet snake. As a new snake owner, I had no idea what to do. I reached out to a vet and they referred me to Danielle Inman. Danielle was immensely helpful in getting my injured snake back to full health. I am eternally grateful to Danielle. She frequently checked in with me and my situation, always asking questions and providing useful information. Danielle and Other Pets put great care and attention to their patients. I highly recommend them!

We were referred to The Other Pets Danielle Inman Consulting through our vet after our Leopard Gecko stopped eating due to impaction. Danielle made recommendations on how to improve our Leopard Geckos habitat after we sent her some pictures and the temperature readings from the hot, warm and cold zones. We never felt as though we were talked down to and all our questions were answered promptly no matter how minor they may have been. There is a lot of information out there on how to take care of Leopard Gecko and it started to confuse us. Danielle explained the reasoning behind all her advice and her advice improved the quality of life for our Leopard Gecko. He is back out hunting for his food and hanging out in his new hot zone. We would recommend using her services, it was money well spent.

Dr. Danielle has been an ENORMOUS help in my opossum, Puna’s life. Her wealth of knowledge is absolutely vast and incredible. Puna has had amazing behavioral turn-around since applying Danielle’s advice and techniques. She also answers very promptly to any random concerns in between routine communications, and communicates directly with my vet. If I could leave 10 stars I would!

Danielle is absolutely amazing! She helped me above and beyond what I expected for the small fee she charges. She is truly always there for you to help answer any questions you might have. She taught me so much and continues to provide support on my journey to making my ball python’s life better. I will be recommending her to anyone with exotic pets! Here are the photos of his enclosure transformation before and after working with Danielle🤩

I had many questions being a first time reptile pet owner and Danielle never hesitated to answer them all. She responded very quickly and with tons of detail. Overall I would highly recommend her service to anyone with an exotic pet. It has been amazing to have one expert source of information to give reliable advice!

Danielle helped me upgrade my turtle’s habitat. She responded to my questions promptly and guided me throughout the whole process providing recommendations to our specific needs. Now my turtle is thriving in her new enclosure thanks to Danielle. I highly recommend The Other Pets- Danielle Inman Consulting.
