Long-time Rover; cats & dogs!

Pet care experience

I have been pet-sitting through Rover for almost years now! I have seen it all and still absolutely love what I do. I'm an avid fan of long walks and/or hikes, and I find taking a four-legged friend with me on my runs motivates me a little bit more (and gives me a couple of extra water breaks). I have an adopted kitty of my own, and she's the light of my life! She can be nervous around high-energy animals, so please keep that in mind when booking for Boarding. I am now offering House Sitting services for repeat clients ONLY!

Lila is reliable and attentive, always thorough and able to do anything we ask. Our kitten loves her too!

Lila took amazing care of my kitty once again! She was able to watch her super last minute and was super flexible with the key pickup/dropoff. Appreciate you as always! And will definitely use her again :)

Safety, trust & environment

Regarding Dog Boarding, my kitty has come a LONG way but may lash out (with no claws) at overexcited animals. So if you have a VERY energetic dog who does not have experience with cats, please seek another sitter! With drop-ins and walks, I will never leave your pets alone outside, whether the yard is fenced or not. Pups will always stay on a leash when being walked, even if they are good off-leash. I just want to keep your fur babies safe!

Information Lila D. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to look after any breed, but if you have a larger dog and are struggling to find the perfect sitter, I'm your girl! If your dog has trouble being around other dogs (whether on leashes or just in general) or is shy around people they don't know, please be sure to let me know!

A typical day

I love to hike, go for longs walks, and run, and taking a furry friend with me always makes everything ten times more fun. I love cats AND dogs and am happy to watch both. I understand that pets are like members of the family, and am always more than happy to give them enormous amounts of affection.

I get my work calendar every month and regularly keep my Rover calendar up to date with my availability. I am definitely flexible, but I do not accept same-day bookings. It is preferable for me to meet your pup or kit before I invade their space! I also only take one dog at a time.
