Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog’s favorite sleepover spot
I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for about 4 years now. I do boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits. I’m always home, so your pet is always supervised and never left alone. This is especially helpful for dogs with separation anxiety. I stick closely to each pet’s routine and adjust to what they’re used to. I take dogs out about 4 times a day and make sure they get the right balance of activity and rest. I’m also comfortable giving medications if needed and keeping an eye on any allergies or specific care instructions. I keep my home clean and safe and make sure it stays a calm, low-stress environment. I also stay in touch and send updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ksenia did a wonderful job taking care of my pup Wilbur! She made sure he had plenty of fun and enrichment and gave me plenty of updates during his one week stay. Her pup Stella is so so sweet, and her and Wilbur were best friends. I can't recommend her enough!
We have been working with Ksenia for a long time and she is our dog’s favorite sitter. Our dog is anxious and she handles him very well, making sure he has fun and meeting him at his level. She always sends good photos and updates. She is always reliable and on time. We love working with Ksenia!
Annabelle has stayed with Ksenia several times and she is always very easy to book and communicate with. During the last stay due to a schedule change she even dropped Annabelle off at my home to make it easier for me which was so considerate! I look forward to the next stay and would highly recommend!
Milo stayed with ksenia for 4 days! He has stayed with her before and absolutely loves it. He gets so excited when we get to her place! She also keeps me updated on how Milo is doing throughout his stay. Milo had an ear infection prior to me dropping him off and ksenia administered his ear drops and took great care of him! Thank you ❤️
Kelce is excited when I drop her off so it gives me peace of mind. From everything I can tell Ksenia treats my pup like her own. Very happy with her visit.
We had a wonderful experience with Ksenia! She took excellent care of Toby and treated him like he was her own. She was caring, responsible, and kept us updated throughout his stay, which gave us great peace of mind. Toby clearly had a great time and was happy and comfortable when we picked him up. We truly appreciate all the love and attention she gave him. We highly recommend Ksenia to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! 🐶❤️

Schedule
I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Walks, feedings, and check-ins are part of my routine, and pets are never left alone — they always have supervision and company. I plan my time around pets’ needs, not the other way around.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety, consistency, and attention to detail are a priority in everything I do. For walks and daytime care, I stay aware of surroundings, use only owner-approved equipment, and double-check everything before heading out. I follow each pet’s usual pace, routine, and boundaries to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m comfortable working with crates, gates, and separate spaces when needed, and I strictly follow feeding guidelines, including allergies and dietary restrictions. I don’t give any food or treats without clear approval. At home or during drop-ins, I keep the environment calm, clean, and predictable. I pay attention to behavior and energy levels and adjust care as needed. For overnight stays, I maintain the same routine and structure pets are used to and follow all instructions closely.
Pets
A typical day
My day is structured around each pet’s routine rather than a fixed schedule. Morning starts with a walk and feeding, followed by downtime or supervised play. Midday includes another walk or check-in, depending on the pet’s needs. Afternoons are typically quieter, with rest, light activity, and regular potty breaks. Evenings include a longer walk, feeding, and wind-down time. I adjust the level of activity based on the pet — more active dogs get longer walks and engagement, while calmer pets have a quieter pace with shorter outings. Throughout the day, pets have consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, and a clean, low-stress environment.

- Before care begins, I make sure I understand each pet’s routine and preferences. This includes walking habits, leash behavior, energy level, feeding guidelines, allergies, and any fears or triggers. I also ask about any training cues, routines, or house rules, so I can keep care consistent and low-stress.
