Hi! My name is Dariya (Dasha), I’m a friendly and reliable person with a genuine love for animals. I grew up on a chicken and sheep farm in Spain, alongside our three family dogs—Kai (Border Collie), and Khan and Lut (Spanish Alanos), who you can spot in my photos. They’re a big part of why I love working with animals, and I miss them dearly now that I live in England, which inspired me to start pet sitting. I work from home and spend much of my free time outdoors, enjoying hiking and long walks, something I love sharing with the dogs I care for. Alongside my passion for animals, I’m currently working towards a career in graphic design while working remotely part-time as a personal assistant. This allows me to provide constant supervision during day care and spend plenty of quality time with your pet. If I do need to step out, it would only be for a short period (no more than 1–2 hours), and I always ensure your pet is safe and comfortable. I’ve cared for pets for friends and neighbours and now offer dog walking, home visits, house sitting, and day care. I always aim to make pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I know a variety of great walking routes in my local area and typically offer walks of 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your dog’s needs. I understand that puppies and senior dogs require a different pace, so I always discuss this with owners in advance. For safety and to build trust, I keep dogs on a lead during initial walks, and I’m happy to discuss off-lead walks with your consent once I’m familiar with your dog. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are my top priority. In the unlikely event of an emergency, I will contact you immediately and, if necessary, take your pet to your preferred vet or the nearest veterinary practice. I also provide regular updates and photos for peace of mind. I’m happy to follow instructions for basic care, including administering oral medication if needed. While I have experience with dogs who require medical care, I am not a qualified veterinarian and do not provide injections or specialised treatments. lease feel free to message me if you have any questions or would like to arrange a meet and greet, I’d love to get to know you and your pet!
