Safety, trust & environment

In my home I have a fenced in yard for my dogs. I go out there with them since one of my dogs is special needs(blind). I listen to what the client wants when it comes to their dog, so just communicate what your dogs needs are and I will do my best to accomodate!

Information Daria K. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any special needs and/or behaviors I need to know about. Any food/treat allergies they may have. Anything else that you think is important for me to know about your pet.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. We can go on a walk and explore a park as well as some sniffing activities at home for mental stimulation.

Pet care experience

I am an experienced dog walker and sitter. I have worked with a variety of different temperaments without any issues. Dogs that are shy, nervous, and/or any other behavioral issue isn't a problem! I can handle dogs that are big or small. I have 2 of my own big dogs, one is blind and the other isn't dog friendly so if you have a special needs dog that isn't an issue with me. I have also taken care of dogs as big as malamute shepherd mixes to as small as puppies. I have also taken care of and walked senior dogs and given them medications if needed. I love being around dogs and learning more about them so you can rest assured they are in good hands. If you're new to rover you can use promo code: dariak81091 for $20 off your first booking!

Daria is fantastic! She is patient with my dog who hates his harness. I can tell by her post walk notes that she truly cares about my dog. She provides thorough notes on how each walk went. Can’t recommend her enough!

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.
