Highlights
Pet care experience
Remote worker + full-time cuddler🐾
Hey there! I’m Ciana, a full-time remote designer with years of professional and volunteer pet care experience and a whole lot of love to give your fur-baby. I’m available any day of the week, with short notice, whenever you need a stand-in for anything from a quick walk to a well-deserved vacation. I grew up with a household of 5 rescued bunnies and large, active-breed dogs (Labs, German Shepards, Belgium Malinois, you name it) and grew a love for animals from a young age. Throughout high school and while back home during college, I worked as a Playtime Coordinator at Pet Paradise, a pet daycare and boarding facility; I specialized in 1:1 playtime with high-energy, timid, and reactive large dogs, as well as group playtimes with all kinds of breeds of dogs and cats. I also managed feeding schedules for 100+ furry residents, kept things clean, and (of course) gave excessive cuddles. While I was away at college in New York, I kept it up by house-sitting both cats and dogs and dog-walking for locals. Now that I work 100% from home and servicing the Parkland, Coral Springs, Boca, Coconut Creek, Margate areas, my laptop setup comes with me wherever I go. Your dogs and cats won't have to worry about being left alone for hours. Instead, they’ll have a built-in office buddy ready for couch snuggles, potty and play-time breaks, multiple walks, and whatever else they need. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at any time. I’m also available for meet and greets prior to the designated stay so that you and your pet can feel more at ease. Hope to meet you and your furry family members soon!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Safety, trust and honest communication are my top priorities. I ensure your home is kept secure and clean at all times. I'm vigilant and extra careful about strictly sticking to your feeding, playtime, walking and general house-care instructions. And I never miss the opportunity to send you a picture or update about your furbaby!
Ratings and reviews
Ciana is EXTRAORDINARY with animals. She’s been my go-to petsitter for my spunky senior terrier mix. I’ve contacted her for short-term needs and overnights, and Ciana has always been there for me with immense attention to detail, transparent communication, and above all else, care. Ciana’s compassion makes her stand out among other sitters I’ve tried, and I can’t recommend her services enough.
It makes me so happy to see Ciana finally on Rover! I was recommended her a few months ago through a mutual and she’s been taking care of my puppy for me while I’m at work during the week. She comes by late morning to take my baby out for a walk after breakfast and then once more before I get home in the evening. Sometimes I’ll have her stay throughout the afternoon too just for extra snuggles, playtime and to watch over her and send me updates. If you are looking for someone loving and attentive, I can’t recommend her enough!
I highly recommend Ciana as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, dependable, and genuinely loves animals. She treats every pet with kindness, patience, and attentive care, always making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I trust Ciana without hesitation to care for my pets and confidently recommend her to anyone looking for a compassionate and reliable caregiver.
We have had Ciana watch our dog multiple times and she’s always been great. She makes sure to follow our schedule to a tee, and will ensure our dog receives constant attention and enrichment. She has also been very respectful of our house rules while we are away for multiple days. We get constant updates and pictures, and she is always sure to let us know when something is wrong.
Ciana is a family friend of ours and has been watching Lulu for years ever since she was a puppy. As a family we go out of town pretty frequently, so we always ask Ciana to stay over for longer periods of time and stay with her. At this point Lulu is very used to their routine and I’m starting to wonder if she prefers us being out of town lol! Sometimes we decide to travel last-minute so I’m very glad we have someone reliable and trustworthy to call on. Lulu is quite particular with her schedule and routine, and can get fussy when it’s disrupted. Ciana is very intentional about maintaining her meal times to be consistent, playtimes indoor and outside and keeping her entertained throughout the day. As Lulu gets older, Ciana has been adjusting how much playtime and activity to give to make sure she’s not overexerted which we really appreciate. Can easily recommend her. Plus she loves to send us updates while Lulu is playing, napping or outside. We’ve never come home to any mess in our yard or our house!
I met Ciana through a mutual friend’s recommendation, she started coming over to check on my baby Nico in the mornings, afternoons and evenings while I was at work. Nico is an indoor-outdoor cat and pretty self-reliant but loves to snuggle and gets lonely easily one he warm sup to you. I wanted someone there to check on his food and water, clean up his litter to prevent smell from building up, and to let him out to the backyard in the morning and back in before nighttime. I work long shifts so getting pictures of Nico throughout the day of him playing on the patio or snuggled up on the couch while she worked remote made me so happy. When I went out of town on a business trip, I had Ciana stay over in-house for a few nights and everything went so smoothly. Her communication was always clear and fast and I came back to a happy cat and a clean, good-smelling house. I’d definitely recommend Ciana to any other anxious pet owners who get nervous about being away for too long or going out of town!

Schedule
My schedule can easily adjust to your and your pet's needs, energy levels, and typical routines while boarding or walking. As a full-time remote designer, my workday is incredibly flexible, I easily adapt to the structure your pet is used to at home. Whether they need a high energy routine with frequent outdoor breaks and play, or prefer a quiet, cozy day snoozing on the couch, or sitting apart at a respectable distance, I’ve got it covered. I am also passionate about carefully monitoring heat and exhaustion, especially while out in the Florida sun. Because I work from my laptop, I am available any day of the week, early mornings to late nights and everything in-between, on short notice and for however long you need me. You can expect a seamless blend of my professional pet care background and a whole lot of love, ensuring your fur-baby never feels lonely while you're away!
