Availability

My work is fully remote and I'm fortunate to have some autonomy in how I structure my day, so I can generally be fully present and swiftly responsive to your pet's needs. (My partner works in-office, so I may occasionally need to pop home to attend to my own pup's meals or potty breaks.)

14 years of experience

Safety, trust & environment

All Charleston Animal Society volunteers who wish to work directly with adoptable dogs must take a short safety course, and I've successfully passed this with flying colors. I'm experienced with administering oral medications. At the moment, I'm training for an ultramarathon, so if your pup is high-energy, you've come to the right place.

Information Disa T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time if your dog is still practicing good leash manners, is reactive to other dogs, or has separation anxiety, and I'll be happy accommodate them. It's really important to me that pups with these behavior quirks get just as much patience and consideration as any other dog.

A typical day

I'm always sensitive to individual pets' different activity levels and abilities. We can explore Burlington's parks and trails, take a car ride to go get a pup cup, play fetch, practice tricks and commands, or just stay home and snuggle.

Pets are my favorite people

Pet care experience

Past work experience at a small-but-mighty no-kill shelter (Animal Resource Center in Bloomsburg, PA). Over the years, I've lost count of how many times I've played Fairy Dogmother, but I truly never get tired of it. Pets are family, and when folks entrust me with caring for their babies while they're away, I take that seriously! In addition to work experience, I'm a past volunteer for Charleston Animal Society, and my own dog, Zelda, and I are a certified therapy dog team with Alliance of Therapy Dogs (ATD).

Cannot speak highly enough about Disa and the positive experience we had with her. This was our first time leaving our dog with someone other than family or friends and we couldn’t have found someone better. Our dog is a very anxious rescue and Disa went above and beyond to care for her and make her comfortable. Will definitely be booking with her again! :)

Disa was very reliable and flexible. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her. She was easy to communicate with and sent daily updates. Everything was clean and organized when I returned home and more importantly, my dog was a happy camper.

Disa was great! She did a great job keeping us updated and our dog Murphy loved her! We would recommend Disa to anyone.

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.
