Federica can care for
Availability
I currently work full time, but I have flexibility built in. I work from home three days a week and am in the office the other two, so I can plan ahead to be home when needed. Weekends are typically wide open for me, making them ideal for pet sitting, walking, or just spending extra quality time with your pup!

About Federica D.
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding, walk, and playtime schedules closely and make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and exercise. I’m respectful of your space, tidy, and always keep safety a top priority. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, happy, and at home—wherever they are.
Information Federica D. would like to know about your pet
I always want to make sure your dog feels safe and comfortable, so it’s helpful to know their routine, energy level, and any quirks or triggers they may have. Let me know if they have any medical needs, dietary restrictions, or fears (like loud noises or other dogs). I also like to know their favorite toys, treats, and how they communicate when they need something—it helps me give them the best care possible!
A typical day
I love keeping pets active and engaged! Depending on their energy level and preferences, we’ll go on walks, play fetch, tug-of-war, or just explore the neighborhood together. For cuddle bugs, I’m always down for some cozy downtime and belly rubs. I also love using toys and treats for a little enrichment and mental stimulation—whatever keeps those tails wagging!

Pet care experience
I’ve had dogs—big and small—my entire life, and I genuinely treat every dog I meet like one of my own. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, and everything in between. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or just quiet company, I adjust to each dog’s unique needs. I also have experience with multi-dog households and understand how to keep the peace and the tail wags going!
Reviews
If you’re looking for someone to care for your pets with love, responsibility, and genuine joy, look no further than Federica. Not only is she incredibly reliable and gentle with animals, she’s also smart, thoughtful, and, let’s be honest, absolutely gorgeous (your dog might develop a little crush). Federica has a natural way with pets. Whether it’s a bouncy puppy, a shy senior dog, or a cat with an attitude, she knows how to read their needs and make them feel safe and loved. She goes above and beyond whether it’s making sure the water bowl is full, giving extra cuddles, or sending the cutest updates while you’re away. Smart, stunning, and truly an animal whisperer, Federica is the kind of person both you and your pets will instantly adore. I wouldn’t trust anyone more!
I can confidently say that Federica is one of the most dependable, compassionate, and capable individuals I know when it comes to caring for animals. As an owner of two black labradors—one very elder 11-year-old and one highly energetic 4-year-old—I’m extremely selective about who I trust with their care. Federica is the ONLY friend I would wholeheartedly rely on. She has gone above and beyond for my older lab, who is partially deaf and has a torn ACL, including assisting with his physical therapy and helping him navigate stairs with patience and care. My older dog also suffers from Epilepsy, causing him to have a very strict diet and rigid medicine schedule. When she pet-sits for the weekend, I have complete peace of mind knowing he is safe, comfortable, and happy. Federica’s dedication extends to my younger dog as well—while training for a half marathon, she made a point to include him in her runs and long walks to ensure he stayed active and received adequate exercise. Federica is also a loving pet parent to two large dogs of her own. While her dogs would be considered intimidating to most, Frederica would never judge a dog based on size and it’s clear they trust and adore her. Her calm, confident presence and deep understanding of animal behavior make her a truly exceptional pet sitter. Federica exemplifies the care, attention, and professionalism that any pet owner would hope to find.
Fritzie is the perfect dog walker. She has had a few (large) dogs throughout her life since she was a baby. She loves her dogs so much and takes such amazing care of them. Not only does she love her own dogs, she has always loved and taken care of my dogs as well. She is reliable, dependable, and very responsible! I couldn’t imagine anyone being better suited for this than Fritzie.
