Attentive Care for Happy Pets
I’ve been around animals my whole life. My mom worked in veterinary care as a vet tech while I was growing up, so I learned early on how to properly care for pets and pay attention to their health and behavior. I also fostered animals for many years, which gave me experience working with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. Some needed extra patience while adjusting to new environments, so I’m very attentive to body language and comfort levels. I’m especially comfortable caring for senior pets. My oldest cat is currently 15, and my oldest dog lived to be 17, so I understand the patience and gentle care older pets may need. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own.

Safety, trust & environment
During drop-in visits, I focus on making pets feel comfortable in their own home and keeping their routine consistent. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, fresh water, medications if needed, and playtime or potty breaks. I always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure to keep pets safe. I also keep the home clean and respect the owner’s space. After each visit, I send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
I can’t recommend Ilaria enough as a pet caregiver. She has watched my dogs, cats, and even my chinchillas, and every time she has gone above and beyond. She is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly loves animals. My pets were always happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her hands. She took the time to learn their routines and personalities, which meant so much to me. It’s clear she treats every pet like they’re her own, and that kind of care and dedication is hard to find. I always had complete peace of mind knowing my pets were with someone so trustworthy and compassionate. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter.

Schedule
I’ve always loved animals and treat every pet like part of the family. I’m patient, attentive, and focused on making pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, from playful puppies to calm senior dogs. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions so pets stay happy and stress-free. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I make sure each pet gets the care and attention they deserve.
