House Sitting • Mar 31, 2026

Daya was fantastic with Rico and Aquafina, as well as with the house! She was super patient with Rico (Chihuahua with separation anxiety) and Aquafina (cat) who loved her, even though Aquafina usually doesn't like anyone! She kept the house cleaner than when we left! And even vacuumed and washed the bed sheets before she left, which I didn't expect, but greatly appreciate! Our dog and cat were in great shape when we returned, not stressed at all!

Dáya is definitely a top tier dog sitter. We recently had a meet and greet with my 8 year old chocolate lab and my 2 year old German shorthair pointer. My pointer is high energy pup who is a bit nervous around new people and bikes and scooters and kids. Dáya instantly connected with both dogs and it was so reassuring to see that before our trip. Dáya is very organized and provided great photos and communication while staying with our dogs. I would not hesitate to use Dáya again in the future.

Daya took great care of our dogs and was very affectionate with them. She was wonderful at communicating with us and sending us pictures. Our dogs, Belle and Rory were very comfortable with her from the start. She gave us great peace of mind knowing our dogs were in capable, caring hands.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

✅ WHAT I OFFER: I offer house sitting 🏘️ and boarding 🚍 with overnight stays, day and night, including frequent potty breaks, multiple walks, feedings, exercise, playtime, and all the cuddles. Pick-ups and drop-offs are available upon request 🌳🏠🚙🌳 ✅ MEET & GREETS: I offer one complimentary 30-minute Meet & Greet (M&G), available in the evenings, Monday–Sunday 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽 The M&G is used to meet each other, get acquainted, and review your pet’s routine, care needs, feeding schedule, behaviors, walk routine, and supply locations 📓🐶✍🏼 ✅ ADDITIONAL MEETINGS: Any additional meetings, repeat reviews, or follow-up walkthroughs beyond the initial complimentary Meet & Greet (M&G) are not included. Additional in-person reviews are available for an additional fee of $150, [including meeting again just before departure] as all care details are already reviewed during the M&G and documented in writing. I remain available to message with questions at any time. ✅ FEE WAIVER OPTION: The additional meeting fee above is waived when care instructions and access are provided in advance (written notes, printed instructions, or even video), allowing me to let myself in at the start of the booking. This option is often preferred and avoids unnecessary repeat meetings. In other words: Fee is waived if we skip the "quick" 2nd meeting. ✅ WALK DEMOS: Any walks during the meet & greet — including “practice walks” or walk demonstrations — are considered a dog walking service and will be charged accordingly 🦮🐾🐕‍🦺 ✅ MY AVAILABILITY: I stay in my clients’ homes full-time, day and night, and pets are never left unattended. I will always wake up if a pet needs care 🌅🌃 Please note: My preferred hours for routine care (walks, feedings, non-urgent requests) are 10:00 AM – 2:00 AM. I ask that clients be flexible with strict schedules. Emergencies and essential needs are always handled immediately, regardless of the time ⏰📆📞

Safety, trust & environment

✅ CARE MANAGEMENT: I take only ONE family at a time 👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏿👩🏻‍🤝‍👩🏽👨🏽‍🤝‍👨🏿 so your pet(s) receive my full attention and focused supervision during their stay — which they absolutely love ☺️😌🐾 I take pride in leaving homes clean and ready for your return exactly how you left it. I wash dishes needed, tidy pet areas, and typically wash any towels, rags, or bedding used during the stay as part of my standard cleanup routine. If you have different preferences, just let me know. 🫧🧹🧽

Pets

A typical day

✅ YOUR DOGS 2ND BEST FRIEND: Depending on your pets needs and their personal favorites, I love to go for walks/jogs, hikes, and runs as it provides much needed exercise for us both. Usually they might have their favorite toy, so we can play fetch or frisbee. Most house pets love cuddles and relaxing time too. Whatever makes them feel the most safe and comfortable. 🌳🦴🦮🎾🌳 ✅ BOARDING SERVICES: For boarding services, I live full-time, year-round in a Class A extra-large RV locally located at one of two pet-friendly campgrounds. I share my home with my two chill cats, Wonder & Whisper, and my husband, Alastor. 🐈🐈 Because of our living environment and existing pets, we offer boarding for cats only. I am home full-time and provide consistent supervision and care; while my husband works full-time as a scientist. Clients are welcome to meet in advance for a tour of the space by appointment. Evening appointments are available Monday–Friday. 🚍

Let me know if your pet has any special needs, medications, or allergies. Don't feel shy at all to tell me if your pet is reactive with other dogs, squirrels, or people during our walks. No worries, I’ve seen it all. 👀 Clients are expected to provide written instructions and care information in advance or in a format I can easily reference (messages, document, or printed notes, etc.). 📝 Thank you!
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.
