Pet care experience
My family has had pets for as long as I can remember. I was in 1st grade when we adopted our first cat and in 2nd when we adopted our first dog. My pets have been an integral part of my life and I know yours are too! I have experience training young dogs both in basic obedience and agility and I love taking dogs on hikes and swims. I have experience caring for senior dogs and cats and am comfortable administering oral and topical medications to your fur-babies as needed. One of the hardest parts of pet ownership is having to leave them behind when we go. I offer round-the clock, in home care so your pet can remain where they’re most comfortable, in your home!
Reviews
Mahlia is the best pet sitter ever! She has watched my sweet Mac (2-year old cat) multiple times and I could not be happier with the service she provided. Whenever I'm away, Mahlia always goes above and beyond with Mac and makes sure that he is well-fed and cared for. I highly recommend her!!
Mahlia’s love and compassion for animals shines through as soon as you meet her. She has looked after our pets for years. Her attention to details allows us to leave our pets with peace of mind. We are confident their medication needs will be met safely and all other needs carefully taken care of. She is the type of person that’s willing to sit in an uncomfortable position if it means our cats are happy and comfortable or move if the dog wants her seat on our couch. The animals truly come first with Mahlia.

Safety, trust & environment
In your home, your ground rules will still apply. I will work closely with you to ensure the routine you follow daily is kept when I stay in or visit your home. As always I will send you updates with photos if you would like me to do so allowing you to see your pet. Additionally in case of emergencies I will have the number of either your vet or mine accessible to me at all times to ensure if a god-forbid happens your pet receives the best of care.
Information Mahlia P. would like to know about your pet
If your dog has special dietary or behavioral needs please communicate those to me so I can provide the best care possible for your pet. Feel free to tell me your pets favorite toys and activities so I can be sure to incorporate those into our day as well!
A typical day
I like to keep routines as normal as I can but with that being said I love taking dogs on new adventures. I will ensure your pet gets lots of exercise both mentally and physically through long walks, hikes, and mental stimulation games. I have games that hone their natural instincts of seek and find, allowing them to receive rewards from me and their own sense of pride.
