Highlights
Pet care experience
🐾 Loving +Reliable Pet Care
I have cared for animals my entire life- I’ve worked with kittens, adult cats, hospice cats, and dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I understand the importance of respecting a pet’s space, keeping their normal routine, and paying attention to changes in their behavior, eating habits, or overall comfort. My experience includes feeding, litter box care, dog walking, playtime and enrichment, basic grooming, giving oral medication to cats, and providing lots of individual attention and companionship. I’m also a pet parent myself, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals while you’re away. I provide frequent photo and video updates and treat every pet as an individual rather than using the same routine for every booking. 🐾

Luciana was wonderful! She took great care of Benji and kept me updated throughout. I really appreciated the communication, and care. I would definitely book with Lucy again!

Cheerful animal loving family with great fenced yard. Community is nice and walkable. Booked at the last minute after a cancellation. Zero concerns - highly recommend.

Schedule
I start my day around **6:00 AM** and usually wind down around **10:00 PM**, so pets in my care get plenty of attention throughout the day. I do leave for errands or appointments when needed, which can sometimes take **2–4 hours**, but there is **typically someone home**, so pets are rarely left completely alone for long periods. We also have a **yard for convenient potty breaks and outdoor time**, and I always follow each pet’s normal feeding, potty, walking, and sleeping routine as closely as possible. My schedule is flexible, and I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for so they receive consistent attention, playtime, and lots of love. 🐾
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, boundaries, and preferences so they can feel secure and cared for while with me. Boarding 🏡- In sitters home We live in a two-story home with a fully fenced private backyard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time and potty breaks. At this time, I accept house-trained pets only, and dogs must be spayed/neutered. For cleanliness, we regularly disinfect pet areas using hypochlorous acid spray and Dr. Bronner’s soap. For cats, we use Sustainably Yours litter, scoop litter boxes approximately 3 times per day, and keep an air purifier near the litter area. Pets also have access to a stainless-steel water fountain, which both cats and dogs tend to love. Outdoors, dogs have access to a large 3-liter anti-bloat water bowl, and supervised sprinkler time may be available during warmer weather. For walks, I provide my own leash and poop bags. For safety, dogs are walked only by a secure harness only- we do not walk dogs by the collar. During warmer months, cats may occasionally receive frozen Churu treats, and dogs may receive a small amount of Churu or sliced apple as a treat. **Please let me know if you would like to opt out of treats or if your pet has any allergies or sensitivities, especially to chicken.** To provide more individualized care, I normally accept pets from only one family at a time unless previously discussed with a returning client. For all new boarding clients, I require a complimentary meet-and-greet followed by a trial daycare stay before accepting longer reservations. The meet-and-greet is free (30 minutes max), and the required trial daycare (8 hours) is $15. If you choose to book a boarding stay within 30 days, the $15 trial fee may be applied toward your final balance. This allows us to make sure your pet feels comfortable in my home and that the environment is a good fit before a longer stay. 🐾 House Sitting 🔑 During house-sitting visits, safety and respect for your home are priorities. I keep doors securely locked, follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, and take care to leave your home clean and as I found it. Upon request, I can also bring in packages and mail while you are away. For overnight house sitting, I currently accept *apartments/condos only*. I bring my own food, sheet, blanket, pillow, and towel so I can stay comfortably without needing to use your personal items. For safety and comfort, *one trusted family member accompanies me during overnight stays*, so this must be approved by the pet parent in advance. A *meet-and-greet is required before all house-sitting bookings* so I can meet your pet, learn their routine, review entry instructions, and make sure everyone feels comfortable before the stay. Dog Walking 🐕 Harnesses are required for all dog walks. I do not walk dogs by attaching the leash to a collar. I pay close attention to doors, gates, traffic, other dogs, and your pet’s body language throughout the walk. Experience & Personalized Care 🐾 I have experience caring for cats of all ages, including kittens, adult cats, seniors, hospice cats, and cats requiring medication. Through my experience with, I’ve also worked with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and temperaments. Whether your pet loves playtime, outdoor time, cuddles, enrichment, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I adapt my care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.
Pets
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor care to their personality and needs. A typical day may include playtime with favorite toys, enrichment activities, cuddles, and plenty of attention. For cats, I love interactive enrichment play and calm companionship, supervised outdoor time (if appropriate), and brushing. For dogs, walks and routine potty breaks are part of the day. Most importantly, your pet will receive patience, supervision, and lots of love ❤️
