Services

Danika can care for

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old

Availability

I do not travel for most major holidays (except Thanksgiving!) so I am happy to be helpful around the busiest and sometimes most stressful times of the year! I work in DC 2-4 days a week, so I’m most helpful before and after work, and weekends. If booked far enough in advance, I can plan to stay in the home with your dog or cat on workdays. 😊

Safety, trust & environment

In my client's home, I make it as comfortable, clean, and organized as possible. I make sure to ask questions in advance to ensure easy and seamless care is provided. I'm happy to water plants and receive mail too for longer trips if that's helpful :)

Information Danika M. would like to know about your pet

I don't have anything specific I need to know about pets in advance unless you want to share that information :) Many pet parents like to share medication needs and behavioral traits in advance.

A typical day

I love taking dogs for long walks (did you know it helps decrease the risk of doggy dementia?) and playing with them inside and outside! I'm happy to organize brain games for your dog if that's something you own. For cats, I've found lasers and scratching posts the best.

Danika is so great with our senior dog! Very communicative and patiently deals with all that comes with caring for a senior dog.

Danika was super communicative and helpful during the holidays. My kitties were well taken care of (even if they wanted to hide). Will be booking again!

Danika was great. I had complete peace of mind that my cat was in good hands, during my travel. Thanks Danika.

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.
