Pet care experience

Excited to 💖 your pet like you do!

When you can't be with your fur baby, I'll be the next best thing! I have taken care of my dogs since I was 8. I have also fostered and provided medical care and support for dozens of cats and dogs over the years. Friends and neighbors always turn to me when their pets need care or when they have concerns about their health. I am comfortable with any breed or size, as well as puppies and kittens and senior pets. I also have experience with crating dogs, if needed for their comfort and safety.

Lia went above and beyond! She left detailed notes after each visit, took the time to visit my pet and meet him prior to the service started, and was incredibly flexible in dealing with my busy schedule and my cats anxiety and specific needs. Lia is patient and paid specific attention to the most niche of requests. I didn’t have to worry at all while I was gone. Could not recommend enough and will definitely book again.

Lia is truly such a wonderful sitter. I’ve had her check in on my cat a few times now and have only good things to say. She has been so successful at giving my cat medication, and I really appreciate the level of attention she gives him as well.

Lia is an absolute professional. She is very responsive and has been very focused on building a relationship with our dog who has some anxiety around new people. We would recommend her to anyone and definitely plan on having her walk our dog in the future!

Lia was great with our cats and was very responsive. She checked in on our cats a couple times while we were traveling and eased our minds so we could enjoy our trip. She gave thorough updates after each visit and made sure to send lots of pictures. We would definitely book with Lia again next time.

Safety, trust & environment

I always prioritize the safety and comfort of pets. I love taking long walks but I am also equally happy to play or just sit with them when they prefer.

A typical day

I love to take dogs out, whether on a walk around the neighbourhood so they can enjoy all the new smells, or if preferred, to play with them at a fenced dog park. I am also happy to provide enrichment with the dog's toys or to sit with them.

Cats
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time
Lia can host up to 2 pets per night
When boarding animals please bring their food bowls and toys as I do not keep any on hand for hygienic and safety reasons. Please let me know of your pet's usual routine, any special needs or health and safety concerns, and a bit about their personality so I know how to best approach them!
