Pet care experience

Work with various types of animals

Pets are part of the family in my opinion. Keeping your pet happy and healthy is my top priority. I love animals and have few years of experience with a variety of them. I have previously worked with not only indoor pets but also farm and zoo animals. I can look after pretty much any pet: dogs, cats, rodents, and more. I am available during weekdays and weekends. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to try working something out. I can handle tough pets if needed. I am willing to go out for a walk or run with your pet. I have been a pet sitter on and off for years, an absolutely love it.

Daphne did a great job with Maia! She took her for long walks and gave her great attention. She followed my feeding and care instructions too. I highly recommend Daphne and Maia does too!

I really appreciated that Daphne tried to satisfy my demanding requests for the care of my new and challenging 4 month old goldendoodle pup. For the most part, she was willing to make the care I requested fit into her demanding PhD program. I loved that she kept me daily informed with pictures and that her responses to my inquiries were timely.

Daphne took great care of our 6-month-old puppy and our home while we were traveling for about a week. She came by a couple of times beforehand to meet our dog, get familiarized with his routine, and walk through things with us--and was very friendly and attentive to our requests. She sent us daily photos, made sure our puppy got his evening exercise/playtime, and kept us updated on his eating schedule as well as a couple of potty accidents he had had in the house (which she was kind enough to clean up). I'm glad we found her and will definitely ask her to take care of our pup again!

Daphne is great! She was able to help me with my girl on last minute notice. She was very accommodating, on time, dependable and very pleasant to work with. Will definitely be using her help again.

When I take care of your pets I will ask a bit about their regular schedules, even small details are important to keep them comfortable in their space. Also, any special treatments they receive will help me gain their trust and have a successful interaction with them.
