Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Lili. I love all dogs and cats, I am that person that will stop to pet your dog on the street. I was a dog walker for over 5 years, and had over 30 clients. I am dedicated to taking care of your furry family member when I'm watching them. In the summer, I especially love taking dogs to the park/beach/lunches/etc. of course, with your consent. I love spending time with dogs and love making them happy while at the same time they make me happy. I will walk your dog as many times a day as possible. My job is currently hybrid so if I know ahead of time I will be watching your pup, I should be able to work my schedule around his/her stay. I do work long hours sometimes but please feel free to ask me about specifics in my schedule. My partner will also be able to help with walks when I'm not home if needed. I always look for ways to make more time for your pup. ***Most recent update*** I now own my own furry family member, Charlie, the Golden Retriever. She is 6 months as of November 2022. She is great with other dogs and would love to have a friend in the house to play with her. I do have experience with dogs at home. I've had two dogs (Boxer and a Yorkshire Terrier/Westie) in my life, and they both have a very special place in my heart. My baby Kodo died in 2014, and my other is with my mother in Texas in addition to Bella (pit mix) and Hunter (boxer) now. **Sitting in your pups home** I have been great with animals since day 1. Have and always will love them. Being in your furry family members own home makes them more comfortable being with a stranger (but soon-to-be friend!). It's great for them to be in their own environment. It makes it easier on both of us when he/she is more comfortable. If you choose to have your furry friend in my home, I am happy to do so. I have a warm small place that is best for small/medium dogs. My girl, Charlie, would love to hang with your pup. My neighborhood is perfect for long dog walks and socializing. Please reach out if you have questions about dog boarding. If you'd like to know anything else, feel free to message me! I look forward to meeting your furry family members!
Reviews
Lili is wonderful, truly. She watched our two large dogs while my husband and I were on vacation; she went above and beyond. Lili was a great communicator and left us detailed reports and photos after each visit. We felt really comfortable with Lili’s ability to walk both dogs at once, even with one who generally requires distance from other dogs; this was a huge relief for us. We are so glad to have someone in our neighborhood who we trust coming into our home and loving/caring for our pups when we can’t be there!
Lilianna was the best sitter for our Frenchie, Mabel. We had tons of updates and pictures from her all weekend and could tell our beloved pup was in great hands. Lilianna is an excellent communicator, was easy to work with, and was a great guest in our home. We will definitely be asking her to care for Mabel the next time we need someone!
Lilianna was so sweet and caring! We booked her to watch our big boy on 4th of July weekend. She kindly agreed to do a meet and greet beforehand. You can tell that she is a huge dog lover and that she really cares about your pup when she meets them. She gave us cute pictures and pupdates during the walk and we knew Halas was in good hands. Thank you Lili and we hope to book you again soon !
Lili was GREAT. 10/10 recommend. She was very friendly, thorough, and experienced. My dogs seemed to warm up to her immediately. I appreciate the great care she gave them. I would absolutely use her again and trust her in my home.
