Loving Care & Attention for Dogs

Growing up, I made many friends with stray dogs, building trust and learning to understand their unique personalities. I later gained more hands-on experience by dogsitting for friends' pets, working with a variety of temperaments and breeds. In the “Puppies and Yoga” program, I was responsible for the care of energetic puppies throughout the day, making sure they felt comfortable and loved—even if they weren’t potty trained yet. I’m calm, patient, and always ready to give dogs the attention they need to feel safe and happy.

Safety, trust & environment

In both your home and mine, safety and trust are my top priorities. I ensure pets have a secure environment, free from any hazards, and provide plenty of space for them to relax and feel comfortable. I respect each pet’s unique needs, routines, and boundaries, offering them a safe, calm, and loving experience. I’m always happy to follow any special instructions to make sure your pet feels right at home.

Deniz did a great job taking care of my hamster. She had never taken care of a hamster before, but was very willing and excited to learn. She followed my instructions thoroughly and wrote detailed Rover cards. I would definitely trust her with my pets again in the future!

Deniz was a great sitter who we would 100% book again! Our cat can be difficult, but she did a great job with her and made sure to send us lots of photos. She was very communicative and left everything in perfect condition. We did not have to worry once about our cat while on vacation because we knew she had everything handled. Can’t wait to use her again!

Deniz did a phenomenal job in caring for our cat Billi. She provided detailed logs for every visit, and has been very communicative and proactive in sending us updates. She truly went above and beyond and we will certainly be booking with her again.

Deniz was very attentive and great with the cats. She sent amazing updates each day about her visits with them and sent lots of pictures and videos! She also kept an eye on packages and my plants and went above and beyond! I definitely plan on booking her again, she was amazing and I’m so grateful that I found someone like her to help watch my babies when I’m away☺️

I tailor my availability to suit your pet’s needs, whether they need a walk, playtime, or cuddles. I strive to create a consistent schedule that helps pets feel secure and loved while you’re away.

It’s always helpful to know a little bit about a pet’s routine and personality before I care for them. I like to know which commands they respond to and if they have any special needs or instructions. For dogs, it’s especially useful to hear how they do on walks, like whether they tend to pull when they see smaller animals. I also ask if it’s okay for people to stop and say hi to them during our walk, and whether the owner is comfortable with any off-leash activities. That’s why I always prefer to do meet and greets beforehand, so we can get to know each other better and make sure your pet feels comfortable with me.
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.
