My apartment is a good size for all breeds, but is most comfortable for less energetic pups. I have an unfenced yard, so no time off-leash during bathroom breaks, unfortunately. My neighborhood is extremely dog friendly, so walks to stretch our legs throughout the day!

Pet care experience

I adore dogs! Tilly (my dog) and I would love to give your pup one-on-one attention while you're away. For as long as I can remember, animals have been part of my life — my childhood dogs were a Great Dane and a Mastiff, so I'm just as comfortable with larger breeds as I am with smaller ones. I've had dogs my whole life and have been babysitting dogs for 15 years. I know how important it is to dogs and their owners to have attentive and consistent companionship, not just a quick check-in. I can provide the calm, steady environment that suits easygoing dogs best — plenty of cuddles, a relaxed pace, and someone paying attention to their needs all day long. We'll also get out for regular walks to keep them happy and active. I'm a neuroscience researcher and work from home most days. I'll be home all day during your booking, so your pup is never left alone or wondering when you're coming back. If your dog would thrive with a in a calm environment with a devoted human and amiable doggy companion, Tilly and I would love to host your pup!

Dayna is a loving and responsible pet owner. I have left my pets in her care and she did a great job. She is very observant and cares about animals comfort and well-being.

Dayna Thayn would be an excellent candidate for Rover. She has grown up with animals, especially dogs and cats, and truly loves them. Her mother has a dog care business and was a fine example for Dayna. She has also taken care of my dogs both during the day and night. Not only does she love them, but they love her too. She is intelligent and caring, and anyone would be lucky to have her take care of their animals.
