Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet lover with experience 🐾
What sets me apart from other sitters is that I genuinely care about making pets feel safe, understood and loved while their owner is away. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone you can truly trust, so I always do my best to make them feel comfortable, relaxed and cared for as if they were my own. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and little quirks, because every animal is different. Some need lots of play and attention, some need patience and reassurance, and others just want a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to adapt to whatever helps them feel most at ease. I’m comfortable caring for both young pets and senior animals, whether that means keeping a puppy engaged and consistent with routines, or giving an older pet a gentler pace, extra comfort, and close attention. I’m also very reliable and detail-oriented, so I’ll always respect feeding routines, walk schedules, medication instructions, and any special requests you have. For me, pet sitting isn’t just about covering the basics; it’s about making sure your pet feels happy, secure, and genuinely cared for until you’re back home.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritise creating a calm, familiar environment so they feel secure and at ease. I stick closely to their usual routines whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, or play habits to reduce stress and keep things consistent. I’m respectful of your home and follow any instructions you leave down to the detail. I always make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure, and I never leave pets unattended in situations that might pose a risk. I also keep you updated with regular messages and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and in loving hands. I had pet sitters myself before and I completely understand how stressful it can be when they don't update enough! Above all, I treat every animal as if they were my own, with care, patience, and genuine affection.
Ratings and reviews
Lucia was friendly and reliable. It was great knowing she was looking after Luna and Luca. Thank you Lucia :-)
Lucia was great with our shy cat, and he was well looked after while we were away. Quick and easy communication and daily updates. Highly recommended!
Lucia was absolutely brilliant with our dogs. She was reliable, caring and clearly very good with dogs. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs in her care and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. She was very communicative and sent loads of updates - Highly recommend Lucia!
I booked Lucia last minute for an overnight sitting with my dog and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. This was my first time using Rover, but Lucia made it so easy and seamless. She sent regular pictures and updates and was really responsive. Thanks Lucia!
We’re so glad our previous cat sitter recommended Lucia - she’s been amazing looking after our cat for the past few days while we were on holiday. She was punctual, stayed for the whole time we requested and provided great updates (always with photos of course!). She took amazing care of Aldo and made us feel at ease being away from him. No doubt we’ll be rebooking Lucia for our next trips!! ❤️
I’m really happy with the care Lucia provided for my cats. She was thoughtful, quick to solve problems, caring, and very proactive whenever something needed dealing with while I was on holidays. She kept me updated with lots of photos, which was really reassuring while I was away. I felt my cats were in good hands and would happily book with her again.

- To give your pet the best care possible, it’s really helpful to know their daily routine, personality, and any special needs. Things like their feeding schedule, medical conditions, behaviour around other animals, favourite toys or activities, and any habits (good or cheeky!) are all important to share. I’d also love to know how they respond to new people, how they like to be approached or comforted, and anything that might cause them stress so I can make them feel as safe and comfortable as possible. The more I know, the better I can tailor my care to suit your pet’s unique personality and needs.
