Pet care experience

Experienced, energetic dog lover!

Hello! My name is Mia, and I am an animal lover through and through. I've had dogs (and a whole host of other animals!) my whole life, and am currently mom to Josie, a foster-fail rescue pup. I moved to Seattle for college 6 years ago and have since stuck around — in addition to my day job, I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter for the past 10 years. I’ve also been involved in dog rescue throughout my life, and currently volunteer as a dog walker at the Seattle Animal Shelter. Through my work with rescue, I have handled dogs of all breeds, ages, sizes, and temperaments both at various rescue facilities and in my own home as a foster parent. My foster pups have ranged from fearful to anxious to dog reactive and everything in between—I’ve seen it all! I am excited to work with your dog (or other animals) and all of their quirks to make their experience a positive one.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not currently offer overnight bookings, but check back in! I currently reside in the Fremont neighborhood and live in a dog friendly home with 2 dog friendly housemates, so field trips to my house or nearby parks are always possible. During the summer I often work from home various days of the week; please feel free to check in about “doggy daycare” style services!

Mia was available for a last minute walk/feeding and totally saved my trip! She took good pictures and I know my energetic lab had a great time. Thanks Mia!!

I've had Mia look after my two dogs multiple times now and she is always wonderful and professional. My dogs both love her and she is so good at managing both their individual on-leash behavior issues/reactive nature (rescue dog and pandemic puppy). On top of fantastic dog care, Mia is very respectful of your space. She stayed on and off at my house for a week and everything was as I left it upon return. I cannot recommend Mia enough as a dog sitter

Mia is punctual and trustworthy with our pup! I am always reassured knowing she’s coming to take our girl for a walk.

We’ve relied on Mia to care for our dog multiple times and have never been disappointed! Mia is respectful, on time, and cares so well for our girl.

It would be helpful for me to know if your dog has any triggers that I need to be aware of while we're out walking or in your home. Are they afraid of bikes riding by, or not a fan of large dogs? Or maybe they need to be approached slowly when meeting new people; whatever the case may be, please let me know so I can create a positive experience for your dog. I have no breed preferences and am open to anything (cats included)!
