About: Hello, my name is Daya. I’ve been working with animals, technically my entire life and I know that’s what you typically read.. when I was younger I had roosters, chickens, guinea pigs, rabbit, lizards, and birds. I was seeking to becoming a veterinarian technician, but I know that wasn’t my real passion. I became a Dog trainer, now for 6 years. I have been working with reactive dogs (aggressive) and the reason why I say reactive is because our dogs react towards something that makes our dogs look aggressive or probably are. I make sure as a Dog Trainer and the pet parent have a clear understanding what we need to do to help out our dogs. The training I do is obedience. I came to Rover to help out pet parents in need and not just with training but to also care for your furry friend when you're at work. Not only am I a Dog trainer, but I’m also a dog bather at my job. So, I don’t just train dogs. I make sure they are groomed well and again I just bathe. I Do Not cut hair. I want to make sure that our furry friends are clean and healthy so when they are in our home or it’s summer, they feel fresh and fine. I am also a pet parent myself. I have two cats and two dogs of my own. In the picture that you see on Rover, I am Daya the person on the right side. Every day I need to make sure that my babies are fed and well. As myself I do have and work a full-time job, thankfully. I exercise my dogs and cats before I head to work to make sure they move around before I head to work because I know they’re probably just waiting for me to come home.

She did everything so perfectly that anyone would be lucky to have her watch after their pets! She is special and has so much love for animals. Caitlin really went out of her way make all of us comfortable and happy. Our little guy received so much love and attention and that meant the world to us. Also, she was extremely accommodating keeping us in the loop so that we would remain at ease. We can’t say enough good things about Caitlin. She is a RARE FIND and an Absolute Sweetheart…… With that, we highly recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect pet sitter. We will definitely use her again!! ***Caitlin we think so much of you.

About: I've been caring for pets since childhood, everything from dogs and cats to parrots and fish. I have hands-on experience with senior animals and understand the patience, love, and attention they need. I’m also experienced in administering medicine to pets that require it, ensuring they stay safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my lifelong passion for animals and my commitment to treating your pets like my own, with kindness, reliability, and genuine care. Whether it's a playful pup or a gentle senior, I provide thoughtful, personalized attention to keep them happy and relaxed while you're away. As a freelance professional working from home, I have a flexible schedule that lets me provide attentive, consistent pet care throughout the day. Whether it’s a midday walk, medication, or extra cuddle time, I’m available to check in often and follow your pet’s routine closely. Because I’m home-based, your pet enjoys plenty of attention, companionship, and care, that is never rushed or overlooked. I genuinely love spending time with animals, and I’m dedicated to making sure your best friend feels happy, safe, and loved while you're away. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I'm happy to care for them wherever they feel most at ease, typically in the comfort of their own home environment. I believe familiar surroundings help reduce stress and keep routines consistent. I’m reliable, respectful of your space, and committed to creating a calm, caring environment during every visit. If you’re considering other options, I’m always open to discussing what works best for you and your pet to ensure a smooth, happy experience.

About: I have worked in the animal care field for nearly 4 years, I worked full time at a popular small dog daycare for 3 1/2 years in Manhattan beach. From puppies, senior pups, shy pups to outgoing pups i have experienced them all. I also took a vet assistant class and learned basic medical care such as oral medication, how to cool a pup down in the hot weather. I’m currently not working full time due to my job unfortunately closing its location, I will be available nearly full time for dog boarding, daycare, walks etc. I have many fur parents from my prior job following me for in home sitting and my schedule is filling up quickly! Please try to book ahead as much as possible to be able to be squeezed in I make sure the area whether indoor or outdoor is fully secure of escape or even the possibility of having a stray dog coming in, make sure anything toxic or dangerous to pets is out of reach
About: I have owned pets since I was a little girl! From dogs, cats, birds to hamsters! I would love to have one of my own but I travel often for work. Taking care of others furry loved ones has brought me so much joy! Please reach out! I am currently working part time only on occasional weekends usually with an occasional weekday as well. I am very active and would be able to incorporate walks or visiting your animal! in my clients home, I ensure the animals have a routine. I check their water and food and take them out for a morning and evening walk!
About: I got my first dog 14 years ago and he’s still running around being the fluffiest pup on the block. Since then I’ve also cared for 2 more pups, 4 cats, a bunny, and a hamster. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and with various different needs. I’ve rescued pets which involved handling after surgeries, administering medications, bathing, feeding often, and it’s all worth it to see a tail wagging again. I’m free to watch your kitty/pup (all ages) on weekends. Fridays starting at 5pm. I can stay over Friday and Saturday nights. Availability ends Sunday 5pm. I’m careful to read all instructions before arriving, I ask any questions I may have ahead of time. I will get there promptly, wait for the pet to approach me and not approach until their body language indicates it’s ok to do so. Start on the tasks at hand and if needed handle them with love and care. Be very patient with them and ensure all messes the furry baby made are cleaned up. Give a summary of care and anything that stood out regarding behavior/health/environment.
About: Over the last 10 years of dog sitting I have discovered many tips and tricks for many dog personalities. Dogs are not difficult to take care of, they just need individual attention. I’m currently working part time at a corporation near you and available oftentimes. I don’t have children of my own so I have plenty of time for many fur babies. I have a fence back large yard with part pavement and part grass. For dog down time, I have several crates and toys. Dogs will always be safe.
About: I have loved caring for dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. From senior pets to newborns, I love them all so much! Currently, I am a part-time intern, so I will have plenty of time during the day to walk, feed, and care for your precious baby. I will follow the detailed instructions and strict guidelines for caring for your pet. Any steps to ensure that your pet is safe from harm will be followed. Do not worry!

Dayanara G.
“Dayanara is a great caregiver for animals. As a student in her dog training courses, I've seen her handle multiple dogs and large aggressive dogs, sometimes at once. She cares deeply for the pets and I've seen her personally go above and beyond in helping an animal in learning commands as well as help them relax in the process. I have a pet of my own and she has been a great help in getting my dog, Osita, to pay attention and respond to commands. Attending her classes has been a great decision and I am happy she's been helping me and Osita in leraning commands. I've signed up for all of her classes: puppy training, intermediate, advanced, and brain games. Dayanara has personally helped me and my dog from the beginning and soon I plan to take what I believe is called the CGC test through her. I've seen her been able to handle multiple dogs at once and at times when the pets would get aggressive, she would implement exercises for them to know each other and get along. Through her training and exercises I have seen her care and love the animals. She has great patience and I've never seen her turn away a dog. She treats the pets she trained as actual students and she loves to see them grow. For the times I have talked to her about her classes, she enjoys talking about the different pets and animals she's come across and loves to see how they progress in life. If there's anyone I'd recommend as a pet caregiver, It would definitely be Daya.”

We've been close for several years, starting out as colleagues at a law firm dedicated to supporting disabled Americans. Our bond quickly grew beyond work into a cherished friendship that extends into our personal lives. Rebeca has a heart of gold and a genuine love for animals, especially her own cats, whom she cares for with unwavering affection and responsibility. Her nurturing personality and reliability make her not just a great friend but also an ideal choice for pet sitting through Rover. I have no doubt that she will provide pets with the same love, attention, and security that she gives to her own furry companions.”

Abigail was a wonderful pet sitter this past weekend. We were able to relax on our trip knowing our dog was being well taken care of. The visit updates were helpful. Abigail is kind, attentive and professional. We highly recommend.
Aileen was so great with my cat that she was pet sitting :) My cat isn't the most friendly, but he did well with Aileen! She knew exactly how to care for him.

I would 100% recommend her and will be asking her again in the future!

Elaine is so great and our cats loved her! Such a relief while we’re out of town to have her stop in and check on them and give them love.
Micah did an excellent job of caring for my fur babies! Pictures every time she was over with updates. Also, the best tell tell sign my babies were happy is if I come home and they are relaxed and not crying to see us. And this was the case. Highly recommend! 💜
