Safety, fun, love, and reliability!

Pet care experience

I have always had animals in my life up until now when I live in the city. I am very active and would love to take your dog on my walks. I do love dogs and cats, but beyond that I am a professional that shows up on time (rain or shine) and you never have to worry about your pet or your home being cared for.

Lia is simply wonderful! She is wise, empathetic, friendly, good humored, and most importantly provided excellent care for our two dogs during a week-long vacation. Lia is well-versed in dog personalities and able to respond to whatever your pet needs based on their individual character. During the week that we were away, Lia also handled an unexpected challenge with one of our dogs with real grace and expertise. I cannot recommend her highly enough! She is a fantastic human and an incredible dog sitter.

Lia did a great job watching my six month old puppy Toby, and I’d love for her to watch him again soon. She seemed very comfortable and knowledgeable about handling younger dogs, paid attention to subtle details, and even took the time to clean off Toby’s tear gunk (a common issue with shih tzu’s). She also came across as a very responsible dog sitter, taking safety and rules very seriously. I could tell she really cared about taking the best care for my pup.

Lia, is super professional, thoughtful and thorough. We spoke and met prior to her stay with our boxer puppy. She asked all of the right questions to make sure her and Kylo we well taken care of during her stay. We received the cutest daily updates and pictures which really put us at ease. My home was beyond impeccable when I came home and she even left us a yummy dessert that she made! We’ve used multiple sitters on Rover and she’s the best.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat your pet(s) and your home with equal respect and care. I will make sure that everything is up to your standards, and I have a high level of personal integrity. I believe that bringing someone into your home to care for your pets can be very stressful, so I go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable as a client.

Information Lia A. would like to know about your pet

It is important that you let me know if your dog (or cat) have any special needs, or behavioral issues that I should take into account. Also, please let me know how they feel about, and behave towards other dogs, and animals.

A typical day

Depending on your dog’s needs and your wishes, we will sniff out the neighborhood or a nearby park or even forest! We can do a leisurely walk, or a strenuous hike that will leave your dog puppy tired. I also offer snuggle time and an occasional (parent approved:)) treat!
