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 was so great the entire time she had visits with our cats Chloe & Miller. Very thorough updates and great pics. We will definitely use Mika again when we go on our next trip!

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!

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.
