Highlights
Pet care experience
Full-time animal lover!
Hi there! I'm a graduate student with a lifelong passion for animals and over 17 years of hands-on pet care experience. Growing up, I cared for a German Shepherd with special needs, which taught me how to adapt to each pet's unique requirements. Today, I share my home with a wonderful cat who keeps me company during study sessions. I'm the go-to pet sitter among my friends and family, and honestly, it's the highlight of my week! As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet care needs. I'm easy-going and attentive, and I understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime, or your cat prefers a calm presence and meal service, I'm happy to tailor my care to suit their personality and any special needs they may have. I'd love to meet you and your pet! Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requirements. I'm here to help make sure your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
When pet-sitting in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for your pet while respecting your space. I follow all care instructions carefully, maintain your pet's regular routine (feeding times, walks, play schedules), and ensure all doors, windows, and gates are properly secured. I'm attentive to potential hazards and keep harmful items out of reach. I'll send you regular updates with photos so you have peace of mind while you're away. If your pet has any special needs, medical requirements, or anxiety triggers, I'm happy to accommodate and adapt my approach. Your home and pet's safety are my top priorities.
Ratings and reviews
Felicia watched my cat over the holidays and I couldn’t be happier! My cat warmed up super quickly to her and she played with him and ton :) responsive and friendly and will definitely book her again!
Thank you, Felicia, for taking such great care of Chai! Chai, our beloved, but sometimes grumpy cat really enjoyed your company, which says a lot. We look forward to future pet sitting with Felicia; she’s communicative, reliable, and super friendly! Highly recommend!!
I have two senior dogs, one is 12 and the other is 14, and they both have special needs that require extra attention and care. Since they're older I'm always nervous about leaving them even just while I'm at work. Felicia has been checking in on them biweekly and she is so gentle and patient with them. She follows all their specific care instructions and makes sure they get appropriate exercise without overdoing it. My dogs absolutely adore Felicia and I can tell they're always excited for her visits.
I have two cats with very different personalities, one is playful and outgoing while the other is nervous around new people. When I went out of town for a week, Felicia took excellent care of both cats, keeping up with their feeding schedules, playing with my energetic one, and keeping the litter boxes clean. What really impressed me was how Felicia won over my shy cat. By the end of the week, my shy one was actually seeking out attention and seemed completely comfortable, which almost never happens. I received regular updates which I loved too, and I'd definitely recommend Felicia's services.
I can't recommend Felicia enough! I have an energetic 1-year-old puppy who can be quite a handful, and Felicia has watched him multiple times when I've been out of town. Each time, I came home to a happy, well-exercised dog and a tidy house. Felicia stayed at my place, kept up with his walking schedule, and made sure he got plenty of playtime and attention. I loved getting photo updates throughout the day-it really put my mind at ease knowing my dog was in such good hands.
