Pet care experience
As a dog owner myself, I know that pets are family. When I spend time with your pet at your house or on a walk, I approach my care with that very thought: I’m helping you ensure that your family member is safe & loved while you are away. Active Rover experience: multi pet households (1-4 cats/dogs), hamsters, bunnies, parrots for overnight/drop-in short term and extended care With both dogs & cats, I always pay attention to their body language, respect their routine and preferences and will always use animal-first, positive reinforcement in my communication. Having raised and trained 2 rescue dogs in the past 3 years, I’m confident in my ability to get along with your pet and provide necessary care & attention while having fun.
Reviews
This was our first time doing a house/dog-sitting through Rover and Daria was great! She gave us regular updates and kept our two dogs loved and safe for a few days while had a much needed getaway. After a couple of bad boarding experiences in the past year, it was such a relief to come home to happy healthy dogs. We would definitely hire Daria again.
Daria was great! She gave us daily updates and took great care of our babies.
Daria did a wonderful job taking care of our boys! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good dog sitter :)
Daria did a great job with my three babies. We will definitely be rebooking.
About Daria Z.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
- I work from home, so I can spend time with your pet during the day - I am comfortable administering medicine, but not shots (open to learn) - On a walk, I continuously scan the environment and prefer to have treats that your pet will respond to if I need to divert them from a trigger; - I will walk your pet for an agreed amount of time and on your preferred route if you have one; - I will ask you about your pet’s triggers and discuss with you strategies to manage them; - I do not walk dog without a leash in ungated environments or if the dog doesn’t have a strong recall success
Information Daria Z. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know more about your dog’s routine, their personality, preferences, known triggers and best practices to address them, commands your dog knows as well as anything else you’d like to share with me.
A typical day
I will cuddle, play, provide intellectual/mental enrichment activities for your dogs or light command training. We will walk where the dog feels most comfortable: I usually don’t take the dog to new places so we don’t additional stress on top of being away from their pawrents.
Services
Daria can watch in your home
Availability
I work from home, so my schedule is flexible when I have enough notice to plan ahead. My evenings and weekends are generally available as well. I do have recurring evening or weekend commitments where I’m away for 2-3 hours (sport, family).
