Highlights
Pet care experience
Attentive, flexible, and caring!
I've had numerous pets growing up, including dogs, fish, turtle, and birds; I love them all dearly! I currently have one dog and two family dogs that I help care for. I've dog sit and cat sit for numerous family members and friends, following strict schedules of care! In my professional career, I've worked at Marine Mammal Training facilities, conducting animal husbandry tasks for exotic birds and marine mammals so you can say I am well-versed with the responsibility of caring for your pets!

I would make sure you and your pets' area is clean and kept tidy. I also am experienced with crating/fencing an animal if needed and have supplies to do so.
Ratings and reviews
Chiara was very good with our golden retriever and clearly knew about dog training basics as well.
Chiara was amazing! She booked with us super last minute due to our other sitter canceling and came right over for a meet and greet. Was super easy to work with and great with our kitty!
My wife and I couldn’t be happier with the care our fur babies received! From the very first interaction, Chiara was responsive, professional, and genuinely kind — exactly the kind of person you hope to find when leaving your pets in someone else’s hands. What really stood out was the communication. We received regular updates throughout the stay — photos, check-ins, and little notes that made it so easy to relax and enjoy our time away, knowing our fur kids were in wonderful hands. Chiara handled everything thoughtfully and on time, and you could tell our pets were truly loved and looked after. We came home to happy, comfortable animals, and clean home which says it all. We would absolutely recommend Chiara without hesitation and will 100% be booking again. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and communicative — look no further!
Chiara did such an amazing job checking in on and walking our dog Wilbur! She thoroughly communicated how well the walks went and even did a whole photo shoot every time. Chiara went above and beyond to make sure his space was clean and comfortable, even taking time to play and hang out with him after walks. We would love to have Chiara walk Wilbur for any other future trips and would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for a responsible caregiver for their dogs!
Chiara was wonderful with my puppies. She sent updates everyday and was really quick to respond if I needed to connect with her. She’s super punctual. I would definitely recommend Chiara and would also book her again.
Chiara has been nothing short of incredible being able to be there for my sweet girl Coco. I do have to disclose that I am biased here so when I say the words “sweet girl” I may be stretching the limits of the english language. Sorry Oxford. But that’s where Chiara comes in. She is the only one who can make those words ring true by making sure my little coco, a 10 pound maltese/poodle who was born during the pandemic and therefore lacks some critical social skills, has everything she needs. Whether i’m off taking care of my grandmother in Oakdale, getting a call about my father’s motorcycle accident, countless trips, and days where i’m expected to work late (most days). Truly everything she has done for me and my family cannot be overstated. We love you so much Chiara and so does Coco nut <33
