Pet care experience

Tail-wagging walks and sits

With a lifetime of experience in caring for dogs, my passion for pets runs deep. I have two adorable chihuahuas, Monkey and Cannoli, who are the apples of my eye. Raised in a household that always had dogs, I have cared for numerous animals over the years, honing my skills in providing top-notch pet care. My dog Monkey has special needs, so I am well-versed in giving extra attention to those who require it. I am dedicated to ensuring that every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and well-attended to, making their time away from their owners as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.

It’s obvious Mia truly loves animals and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care . I highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter

Mia is absolutely the BEST! My boys love her and waits for her visits every day. I love her, too -- I don't have to worry at all about my boys while I’m at work and are at ease knowing she's visiting them and taking the very best care of them. She's dependable, reliable and truly loves her "clients". Martini and Whiskey have the very best of care with Mia! Mia is extremely knowledgeable and is our go to person if I have any questions or need an opinion about my boys. She provides such a wonderful, caring service...you can't get that just anywhere... I’m so lucky to have Mia in my life and my boys are just as thankful!

Safety, trust & environment

Monkey and Cannoli are both friendly, naturally they’re chihuahuas so they have some sass. But they are very relaxed, and because they’re older, they are less temperamental. They love other small dogs and take well to medium and large dogs also. Monkey and cannoli pretty much rule my household, so they lounge on the couch or sunbathe on the balcony anytime they want. I have a treasure chest of toys that they pull out and play tug of war with each other during the day. Since I work from home, I normally put the TV or relaxing music on which makes for great nap time. We go on multiple walks a day, and play with toys throughout the day. My chihuahuas are snuggle bugs, so they normally cuddle up on my lap while I work.

Pets

A typical day

I love starting the pups off with a morning walk before breakfast. We come back from a 20-30min walk, have breakfast and I let them relax for a nap. I stay active with them, playing with their toys and going for at least 4-5 walks throughout the day. I also like taking them to the dog park early in the morning or when it’s cooled down around evening time.

Please just let me know if your baby has any medication or special needs. My baby Monkey is a special needs pup, so I am very comfortable with oral medication and medication distribution. Let me know whatever your baby needs ahead of time so I can make sure they are as comfortable as possible while you are away.
