A typical day

When watching pets, I focus on engaging activities that suit their personalities. For dogs, I will take them on a walk in different environments, play various games, do some training exercises (if you want that) and just give them all my love and attention. I’ll also make sure they exercise and have fun during our time together. For cats, I engage in interactive play with different toys and create cozy spots for napping. I’ll also spend some quiet time petting and brushing them to build trust and comfort.

Endless Love & Cuddles

Pet care experience

Hello! I’m Daria, a passionate dog and cat lover and dedicated pet sitter with 11 years of experience, particularly working with dogs from animal shelters. Having volunteered at AMA Animal Rescue, I’ve had the privilege of caring for and understanding a diverse range of dogs, from shy rescues to energetic pups. My experience has taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and tailored care. I know how to help pets adjust to new environments, build trust, and feel safe. Each pet has its own personality and needs, and I take pride in creating a nurturing space where they can thrive. I believe in enriching their lives through plenty of cuddles, exercise, socialization, and play. Whether it’s a leisurely walk in the park or engaging playtime at home, I strive to make each moment enjoyable and fulfilling. I also have experience with blind and senior pets, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry friend is in safe hands. I’ll provide regular updates and photos to keep you connected while you’re away. I work part time as a dog groomer some days and I can also provide grooming for your pup during their stay, keeping them fresh, clean, and happy. I’m excited to meet your pet and provide the love and care they deserve!

Daria is very kind and communicative. She provided great care for my two kitties and kept me updated with sweet photos throughout her stay. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend! From our meet-and-greet, Daria asked all the right questions, arrived on time, and immediately understood Cava and Tuesday’s needs and routines. She took wonderful care of my dogs and sent thoughtful updates throughout my trip, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. As an unexpected bonus, I came home to a vacuumed apartment! I had mentioned there was a vacuum available for dog hair if she wanted to use it, but I never expected her to go the extra mile. Daria is so reliable, communicative, caring, and truly treats both your pets and home with respect. She is wonderful to work with, and super flexible - I reached out to her 2 days before the booking, and I had to make some changes to my returning flight, and she was available and accommodated us so well. Glad to see that Cava and Tuesday found a beautiful sitter! 🤍

Daria was awesome! How do I know? Well, my dog Cannon told me! Daria took him on lovely walks, fed him, gave him cuddles and pets, played with him, and made him feel happy and loved! I would recommend Daria to anyone!

Daria was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter for our Labrador Truman! She was consistently responsive, detail-oriented, reliable and a joy to work with. She took fantastic care of Tru and our apartment during her several-night stay. We would not hesitate at all to hire her again. Thank you, Daria, for putting our minds at ease while we were away! You are a gem.
