Pet care experience

Pet lover with flexible schedule

I have been doing house sittings and drop in care on Rover for over 3 years now and have had nothing but great experiences. I personally own 2 cats and 14 chickens. If you have a unique pet or an uncommon set of care instructions just let me know. I have cared for dogs including special needs seniors beginning when I was 10 years old. During my childhood, my family partnered with a local dog rescue organization. Regularly fostering up to 12 dogs in our home sparked and strengthened my passion for animal care.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

With most of my bookings being in home house sittings, what I strive for is providing your pet with the comfort and familiarity of following their normal daily routine. You can count on me to care for your pet as if they are one of my own.

My pups loved Daphne from the moment she walked in. Super professional, and took great care of the dogs. Got updates and photos regularly, and the dogs were adequately tired out!

My first time trusting someone to housesit for my 2 dogs. Daphne did an outstanding job. She was very professional, an excellent communicator, and her experience really showed. I will definitely be using Daphne again and going on more trips knowing my dogs are in excellent care.
