Highlights
Pet care experience
Avid dog lover and her poodles!
I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years and truly love providing a safe, happy home away from home for every pup in my care. I’m an experienced sitter with more than 20 repeat clients who have trusted me with dog sitting, walking, bathing, and fun play dates. At home, we have a friendly bichon who loves making new friends, as well as a playful 2-year-old poodle who enjoys having furry guests around. Your dog will have built-in companions and plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout their stay. With a flexible work schedule and a genuine passion for animals, I’m able to provide attentive, reliable care tailored to each dog’s needs. I treat every pet like family and look forward to welcoming yours into our home!

Ratings and reviews
Auggie had the best day with Celia and her pups! She took great care of him, and was very communicative! I know Auggie will love having another doggy daycare day there (he sees it as a play date!) in the future!

This was our dog’s first stay with Celia. The meet and greet was easy and comfortable, reassuring me that Shanny would be in good hands for the week we were away. Shanny warmed up to her and her dog right away. Celia put me at ease with her friendly, easy going, flexible personality. She communicated throughout the week which I appreciated. I will definitely ask her to watch my dog in the future.
Celia absolutely treated Marley as her own, and made me feel completely comfortable that he was receiving the best care when I was away from him for the first time! Celia was very responsive, provided timely updates, was attentive to details, and very professional throughout. Her dog Alfie was also a welcome companion for Marley! Thank you Celia!
Celia was amazing! I felt fully confident in leaving my dog with her just once after meeting. You can tell she has a passion for animals and is an extremely caring person. Celia sent me pictures throughout my trip & I know my dog had an amazing time. Will definitely rebook in the future!

Our schichon had a great day and came home happy...so we were, too!

Celia was fantastic. We were just in town for the weekend and she took excellent care of our pup for about 6 hr on Friday night. She is incredibly responsive and was even available with recommendations for us the day after we used her services. It was our first Rover experience and we will definitely be using it again and rebook with Celia if we are ever in Richmond again.

Schedule
My work is fully remote so dogs and i go out about five times a day. This includes a long walk or hike in the afternoon. We also take play breaks throughout the day to keep him engaged. We also have a fenced in yard so they are able to play outside as much as they please!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Pet safety is always my top priority. I live in a condo with a fully fenced-in yard, providing a secure outdoor space for supervised play and fresh air. I’m attentive to each dog’s unique needs, whether that means closely monitoring introductions, following specific feeding instructions, administering medications, or maintaining consistent routines. I keep a clean, calm environment and never leave pets unattended outside. My goal is to create a safe, structured setting where every dog feels comfortable, protected, and right at home.

A typical day
We have a very active schedule that your dog can easily adapt to. We start each day with a one mile walk then breakfast and playtime. I work from home so i can play with him throughout the day. I normally take them out twice during the day for a quick 3 block walk. Then we go on a longer walk or hike by the river after work. We then do dinner and playtime and walk around the block another time before bed.
