WFH Mom of 2 kids + 2 dogs

Pet care experience

I have a remote work from home position with a flexible schedule. I have adopted two medium sized beagle mix dogs: Pepè (after the cartoon skunk) and Jerry (after Jerry Garcia). Prior to my dogs, I’ve always had 1, 2, or 3 dogs in my childhood home - sometimes even with a cat. Usually small breeds, like silkies and yorkies, but as large as lab mixes. I’ve cared for and live with breeds as large as polish tatras. I will care for animals as you instruct. I understand animals picking up bad habits and understand these are your fur babies. I’m on here to make extra money to help pay off student loan debt. I love animals and I enjoy spending time with cats and dogs alike. Check out my happy clients on IG LuciaOnRover! My philosophy is simple: I’m going to do my best to read the needs of the animal. I will also provide love and encouragement - but not afraid to be stern if needed (or requested by the owner). I try to understand how you care for your pet so I can provide a similar experience while caring for your pet.

Lucia is the BEST pet sitter! She did an excellent job caring for Cassidy and Kevin and kept me up to date the entire time I was out of town. She gave me such peace of mind. She made sure Kevin got the play time he needed each day and Cassidy got to walk and sniff as much as she wanted. We highly recommend Lucia!

Lucia was so caring & patient with my 2 pups! Her communication was great and I’m so happy she was my first sitter. I felt great comfort leaving my babies with her. Highly recommend!

Information Lucia P. would like to know about your pet

Any personality triggers or food aggressiveness is nice to know but not deal breakers. I’ve worked with and cared for so many different types of animals.

A typical day

Walks, toy/play time, treat time, and one-on-one lovies! If approved, play time with my dog and heading out to Reservoir Park (or something similar) for a nature hike!
