Use my promo code DAPHNS09599 to earn £15 off your first booking - new members only- I signed up with Rover because moving in the UK came at the cost of being separated from my four-legged friend. I’ve owned 3 dogs throught my life and have cared for them from puppyhood to adulthood. I’m experienced with small and large dogs and love them equally! All these years I’ve learned to train them by myself. I will keep any rules you have for your dog. I’m the point of contact for any friend/family that goes away on hols and needs a sitter.

Dafni was great with my dog and very easy and smooth with communication. We received plenty of update photos after the check-in. She did great with our energetic puppy! Would definitely recommend.

Taki had the best stay with Dafni and that makes us so relieve during our 2 week long trip with all the frequent updates! Taki is a sensitive & shy doggie that requires a longer period of warm up time to newly met person, Dafni gain her trust in just a few days with a lot of patient and rooms to let her settle down, and provide extra support before the stay so Taki could be more familiar with her place, we really appreciate that! Taki even let Dafni rub her belly and sleep on Dafni's lap after a week! I have to say there aren't many people in the world Taki trust in this much! We will definitely wish to have Dafni to take care of Taki again if we are having future trip!

Pickle always has a great time with Dafni! She is usually really shy with new people but Dafni has been so great with her that now she actually gets excited to see her!

We absolutely adore daphni and couldn't imagine a better sitter for our furry friend, Lucy! She has such a wonderful way with dogs and Lucy always has a blast when she's with her. It's such a relief knowing Lucy is in such capable and loving hands. Plus, getting daily updates and adorable photos of Lucy's adventures made our time apart so much easier. We highly recommend Daphni to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!

I can't recommend Dafni and Andreas enough! They genuinely love dogs and take great care of them. I have total peace of mind when my dog is in their hands, knowing he is having as good a time as I am whilst on holiday.

Schedule

I’m currently studying for my master’s degree, which means I spend most of my time at home. My schedule is very flexible, so I have plenty of time throughout the day for walks, playtime, and cuddles. I love having pets around while I study, it makes the day more fun and active! Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day play breaks, or evening relaxation time, I’m always happy to give them lots of attention and care.

Safety, trust & environment

I and my boyfriend Andreas, live in a very pet-friendly apartment complex where there are lots of other dogs and plenty of green space nearby. There’s a fenced area where pets can safely play and socialize, and several parks close by that are perfect for walks and outdoor time. Inside the house, I make sure the environment is safe, comfortable, and welcoming with plenty of space to relax, blankets, toys and lots of love and attention. I always treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel secure and happy during their stay.

A typical day

A typical day depends on each pet’s routine and comfort level-I’m happy to follow their usual schedule to keep them feeling at home! We’ll go for regular walks, play fetch, and enjoy plenty of playtime and cuddles throughout the day. If they’re up for it, we can go on longer walks or little adventures around the neighborhood. I can also care for more than one pet at a time (with the owners’ approval), so they can enjoy some safe social time and make new friends. My goal is always to keep every pet happy, active, and relaxed while they’re with me!
