Pet care experience

love, care, hugs

Hi, I’m Daria. My husband and I live in our home together with our 5-year-old female Labrador. I’d love to share what life looks like here and how your dog will spend their time with us. We provide a calm, home-style environment with no constant traffic or chaos. Dogs are welcomed into our home as part of the family and enjoy full household privileges. They always have access to fresh water and comfortable resting areas, and they’re welcome on sofas, chairs, or wherever they feel most relaxed. We also have cozy dog beds available. Our backyard is spacious — about 1 acre — and fully enclosed with a security fence that is 5 feet tall. The entire area is carefully maintained and checked, with no gaps or escape points. My husband personally keeps an eye on the fence and overall safety of the yard. Dogs have 24/7 access to the backyard and can go outside whenever they need — to play, explore, sniff around, or take care of their bathroom needs. Sleeping arrangements follow your dog’s usual routine from home. If your dog sleeps in a crate, please bring it, and we’ll happily follow that routine. If your dog is used to sleeping close to people, they’ll rest comfortably on the living room couch. Feeding and medication are given strictly according to your dog’s regular schedule. I carefully follow all owner instructions so your dog can stay in their familiar routine and feel relaxed, safe, and truly at home. I also have experience caring for adult dogs with special needs, senior dogs, and dogs who require ongoing medication. This includes dogs taking anxiety medications as well as dogs undergoing more complex treatments, such as chemotherapy. I’m attentive, patient, and very careful to follow all care and medication instructions exactly as provided by the owner. I would be truly happy to welcome your dog into our home and care for them as part of our family, surrounding them with attention, kindness, and a warm, loving home environment. If your dog shows aggression toward other dogs, please be sure to let me know in advance. At times, I may care for two or three dogs in our home at the same time, and this information helps ensure a safe and comfortable environment for everyone.

I had a great experience with Daria! She took wonderful care of Happy and sent daily updates with photos. Communication was excellent from start to finish. She also has a huge backyard where the dogs have plenty of room to run around. Happy had a great time throughout the stay. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter.

Daria is wonderful and her home is just perfect for our dog who likes to wander in her forested and fenced backyard.

Very communication and great updates. I felt confident with the care that our dog was getting while we were out of town.

Daria is the absolute best dog sitter ever! One of the hardest parts about leaving Seattle was leaving behind their second home with Daria. Thank you for making our boys part of your family over the past year and a half.
