Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong Dog Lover & Pet Sitter
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.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
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!
Mia is absolutely amazing! My dogs adore her and get so excited every time she comes over. She has such a calm and loving energy that instantly puts them at ease. She is incredibly reliable, kind, and trustworthy, qualities that are so important when it comes to caring for our kids. She also house sat for us while we were away, and everything went perfectly. The house was spotless, and our pups were happy and well taken care of. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We will definitely be hiring Mia again and recommending her to all our friends. She truly goes above and beyond.
Mia takes Rookie on nice long walks and we really appreciate it.
We are so happy to have found Mia! When she walked into our home to meet our pup, Koko immediately ran to her. It made it so easy to leave Koko for the weekend knowing that she was with someone so sweet and trustworthy.
Mia took Rookie out for a nice long walk and didn't (recognizably) mind our annoying double communication 😆. Thanks!

Schedule
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.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
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.
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.
