Highlights
Pet care experience
Dependable, Attentive, Experienced
I’ve been dog sitting for family for about 20 years and have also watched cats for neighbors. I’ve had my own dog for the past seven years, and we trained together so she could visit patients in hospitals. She was also reactive to certain breeds after a bad experience prior to adopting her, so I became very attentive on walks and learned how to recognize what might trigger her. I worked with her on counter-conditioning and gradually helped her become much more comfortable around all other dogs. I pay a lot of attention to a dog’s behavior and tailor my interactions based on the individual pup.

Safety, trust & environment
I’ve stayed in family members’ homes for one to two weeks at a time while caring for their dogs, so I’m comfortable staying in someone else’s home and treating it with respect. I’d keep a pet’s normal routine as much as possible and be attentive to things like doors, gates, feeding schedules, and anything else that could be a safety concern. On a recent group trip with people I’d just met, we voted on a series of “awards.” Almost everyone voted for me as the person they’d most want to leave their house keys with.
Ratings and reviews
Lia is wonderful! Very responsive and reliable, would recommend to anyone. Lia has been great with my older pitbull who can sometimes be dog reactive.
Lia was really excellent for our drop in visits. She responded to our request and all correspondence in a timely manner. She was great with our two French bulldogs. She got my more timid pup to trust her very quickly and was fast friends with the other. Will be re-booking her for future help!
Lia is an excellent pet owner. She's loving, diligent, patient, and informed. Lia has lots of experience taking care of dogs, which I've seen firsthand. I would highly recommend Lia as a caregiver for your pet.

Schedule
I work full-time for a tech company, but I have a good amount of flexibility and control over my schedule. I’m used to building my day around pet care from having my own dog for seven years, so walks and regular breaks already fit naturally into my routine. I can usually be flexible with timing and am happy to work with an owner’s schedule and their pet’s normal routine.
