Safety, trust & environment

Using toys, snacks and of course a good chase around the house, I can keep pets occupied for hours. Most animals are content with snuggling or relaxing in their own space which I am fine with either way. I want every dog and cat to be comfortable with my presence in their home so whatever makes them feel most at ease, I try to do.

Information Mika D. would like to know about your pet

If there are any unique behaviors you feel that I would benefit knowing about, I would love to know. Any warnings or tips/tricks would also be helpful.

A typical day

I love playing “tag” with dogs as either they want to be chased or the chaser. I enjoy tug of war, ball throwing and walking long distances for maximum sniff time.

Pet care experience

I have taken care of many different kinds of pets with each their own unique personality. Many animals feel comfortable with me after the first visit since I respect their space and know what their body language is conveying. I am always looking forward to making a new furry friend!

Mika is reliable, clear communicator and has been a great help. She always made sure Lucy got enough play time, stay hydrated and loved. She is amazing and I would definitely recommend her.

Mika was fantastic in helping me care for my two cats when I was in a pinch. She was punctual, flexible, and very sweet and patient with them. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and capable pet sitter!

Mika did a great job pet sitting our two cats while we were away. She was reliable and sent timely updates, which gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. She also helped with other tasks around the house while we were gone, which we really appreciated. Everything was taken care of, and we came home to happy cats. We would definitely recommend Mika and would be happy to book her again.

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.
