Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, my priority is always their safety and comfort. I make sure to follow their usual routines, from feeding and walks to playtime and rest, so they feel secure and at ease. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and I’m always careful with doors, leashes, and surroundings during walks. Whether in my client’s home or with a pet I’m sitting, I treat their space with respect and keep everything clean and organized. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, so I do everything with responsibility and care.

Information Livia G. would like to know about your pet

It’s most helpful for me to know the days and times in advance so I can plan properly and make sure your pet gets the best care and attention. I also need to know if your dog is friendly and any special care they might need.

A typical day

I like to go for walks where we can run a little and play with their toys. Depending on their personality and energy level :)

Loving pet care you can count on

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs for many years, and each experience has taught me how to be patient, loving, and responsible. I looked after my sweet poodle for 17 years, especially when she grew older and developed Alzheimer’s. It was a challenging time, but I cared for her with all my heart. I also helped care for dogs adopted by my family. My elderly aunt adopted a street dog named Fred, and since she couldn’t manage walks and vet visits on her own, I was the one who took care of him. Later, my grandmother adopted another rescue named Bruce, and I became his main walking companion because of her limited mobility. Currently, I live with my host family, and they have a wonderful rescue dog named Rosie. Whenever they travel, I’m fully responsible for her care — from walks to cuddles — and she has truly become my best friend. These experiences taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, whether they’re seniors, rescues, or playful companions. I always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved.

Livia was a great help and stayed with my pup for an hour a few days while we were out for awhile. She was communicative with us and great with our pup!

Livia was great! She took great care of our two cats, played with them, and kept the space very clean. We definitely will hire her again!
