Pet care experience

I can't wait to meet your pets!

I've been helping to take care of my family's pets - and then my own pets - since I was a kid. Whether it was the collection of farm dogs and barn cats at my sister's dairy farm, my mom's Pomeranian, or my first kitten (begged for and adopted at age 8), I've been scooping poop and offering up snuggles to whichever furry creature would take them. These days, my husband and I have a cat and two dogs of our own. We adopted both of our dogs at 4 months, and I've helped many friends with puppies and kittens, so I have experience with caring for young animals and assisting with training. One of those friends even called me her pets' godmother. Feel free to ask me any questions you have! I'd love to check in on your pets and give them that midday boost of love that they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety comes first for me, always. That's to keep your pets safe, and to keep me safe. You never know how other folks out in the world will respond to a dog, or vice versa. I will rely on you to tell me about your animal's triggers and history, and you can trust me to make decisions that keep your animals healthy, safe, and feeling confident.

Lia took care of my three cats Buffy, October, and Joleen for a week while I was on vacation, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! I loved receiving her daily summaries after each drop-in visit; they were thoughtful, detailed, and always put my mind at ease. Lia quickly picked up on each of my cats’ unique personalities, which showed just how attentive and caring she is. I will absolutely be using her again in the future and will be recommending her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter. Buffy, October, and Joleen give her a solid 3 out of 3 paws! 🐾🐾🐾

Lia has been so great with our dog and 2 cats. She was very flexible about working with our anxious cat Robert to make him feel more comfortable and also give him his medication. She's thorough in her communication and even reached out between visits to ask how Robert was doing. 100% recommend Lia!

I love to take care of pets of all kinds, big and small. Please let me know what your pet's care needs are so that I can give them what they need - whether that is medication or a safe space away from their triggers.
