About Lia M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Your home and your pets will be treated with the utmost respect, care and dignity. I will follow an exceptional standard of care and will carry out any additional instructions that are communicated to me ahead of time. To ensure this, I offer the option to meet ahead of the booking to go over any details in person and a trial run at no additional cost. I will communicate regularly during pet-sitting periods and after any walks to ensure peace of mind. Trust and a job well done are both important to me!
Information Lia M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs ahead of time. I have experience caring for animals with health conditions and administering their medications on time, but it would benefit both you and your pet to communicate the specifics to me ahead of time. To repeat above, I am available to drop in for a trial run free of charge.
A typical day
Every pet, like their parents, is different and I ask ahead of time what their favorite activities and toys are, but the standard fun with the dogs I care for are long walks around the neighborhood or by a nearby park to let them sniff around, fetch or tug of war with their toy of choice, and loving scratches on their bellies. For cats, I have found feather toys get them very engaged and gentle pets on their backs get them comfortable.

Pet care experience
Dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish are just a few examples of the variety of animals that other families and individuals have entrusted me to care for. I have been working with Rover clients for a year, with an additional 5 years of experience walking different size and age dogs, pet-sitting for extended periods of time, and catering to each pet's individual needs. I have the patience and quick flexibility needed for young pups, and the compassion and detail-orientation needed for senior dogs and cats. You and I want the best for your animal friends, and I am able to diligently provide it!
Reviews
Lia was an absolute gem. She stayed overnight with Luna for three nights. Luna was in great shape on my return, and I got frequent updates. Place was also very clean. Highly recommend her.
Lia was great! I needed a walker last minute and she even came over for a meet and greet.
Lia took excellent care of my two kitties, consistently provided updates and photos, and communicated professionally and reliably. I would happily ask Lia to drop in again in the future. Thank you so much!
Lia was just amazing. So responsive, so flexible with her time (our return time was unsure until late at night due to wonky flights), and she sent the best photos. Nina, our fur baby, seemed very happy. Highly, highly recommend!
