Availability
I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care throughout the day. I was recently laid off and now work limited hours outside of the house, so I spend most of my time at home. This makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle—I truly enjoy the companionship and having a pet around keeps my routine joyful and active. I'm able to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have.

About Mia V.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel at ease. My home includes central air conditioning and heat to keep pets comfortable and safe during peak seasons, and there’s an elevator available for animals with mobility issues. I take time to build trust with each pet, follow their routines closely, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you're away. Your pet will be treated with the same love and care I’d give my own.

Information Mia V. would like to know about your pet
What I’d like to know about your pets ahead of time is their experience with pet sitters in the past. Have they had someone watch them before? How are they with other animals, seeing other dogs during our walks for example. Are they prone to accidents inside?
A typical day
I'm an early riser, so our days usually start with a morning walk around the neighborhood, which is a great way to get some energy out and enjoy the fresh air. At home, pets love lounging by my low windows where they can watch all the activity outside. I'm also happy to incorporate any training you’re working on into our routine to help keep things consistent and engaging.

Lifelong Dog Lover & Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
With over 15 years of hands-on experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages—rambunctious puppies, playful adults, and sweet seniors. I previously owned my own dog and now work closely with domestic and wild animals at an animal shelter, where I’ve developed the ability to build trust with new pets quickly. My home is currently pet-free, so I’d be thrilled to host your dog and give them my full attention and affection. Whether your pup needs structured care, medication, or just extra belly rubs, I bring patience, intuition, and genuine love to every visit.
Reviews
Mia stayed with our dog, Trudie, for 3 nights last week while we were away. We had a very positive experience when we first met Mia last month. Trudie was very impressed with her and so was I. She was warm and friendly and seemed very professional and responsible. Her stay with Trudie went very smoothly. She stayed in touch with me throughout, she sent pictures, and overall gave me a good feeling of confidence that Trudie was in capable hands. Oh and our house was as neat as a pin when we returned. All in all a great experience with Mia.
Mia was terrific with our girl Iris! She sent pictures to let us know how Iris settled in and gave her plenty of exercise and love. I would definitely recommend Mia for anyone needing to board their dog.
Mia took such great care of our dog. She was responsive leading up to it, and sent updates throughout his stay so we knew he was having a great time with her! We were very happy and will be sure to use Mia again, and highly recommend her!
Mia had great communication with us before and during the stay, including asking good questions about his needs and giving us plenty of info about how she would care for his specific requirements. Gilmore is anxious and reactive to other animals and Mia was very confident and well prepared to handle it, and we picked up a happy, healthy, well cared for boy!
