Safety, trust & environment

Caring for your fur babies in your own home means I would want to establish and respect any and all rules which would be discussed beforehand.

Information Daniella L. would like to know about your pet

I’m a big fan of open communication, especially for a time where your dog may be anxious or worried that you’re gone. I would love to have a conversation beforehand to ensure I can do everything in my power to make this an enjoyable experience for everyone.

A typical day

I love to run and jog, especially since I’m new to the Alexandria area so I would love to explore at a local park or trail.

Former foster mom & vet assistant

Pet care experience

Hi all! As a former vet assistant and foster mom for puppies, kittens, adult cats and young adult and senior dogs, I’m well-versed with medication administration such as flea medicine, deworming, pill administration and certain subcutaneous injections if needed. My professional pet care experience includes working at my local veterinary clinic during undergrad, volunteering at the ASPCA high volume spay/neuter clinic, fostering animals at home for my local cat rescue group, Muddy Paws Rescue, and Best Friends. My goal is to bring in my experience with pups & kitties into your home through house-sitting, dog walks, or check-ins as needed. I’ve been on Rover since 2024, but have been a pet sitter for much longer! I take great pride in providing attentive, reliable care to every pet I work with. As a pet parent to two kitties, I understand how important trust and communication are, and I always keep owners updated and love to send picture updates too.

Daniella watched our little ones while we took a two week trip out of the country— we are so lucky to have her. Our dog injured her leg just before this stay and Daniella made sure to help her recover. Daniella is the best

Daniella does a great job dropping in for our puppy and cat. She makes sure they get meals, walks, and playtime, and always sends prompt updates. She did a great job housesitting for a longer stretch too!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
