A typical day

A typical day begins with morning pets/snuggles, then out back for sniffs and morning potties. Next we move on the breakfast. First activity of the day depends on dogs preference, but can range from, a mellow walk to the park, to a hike in the hills behind my house to a beach visit. Now it’s time for a siesta and then onto to dinner and another walk in the neighborhood or along the trails to round out our day. To prepare for bed, of course more snuggles and pets before our last potty break and onto bed.

Caring and experienced dog lover

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and just recently said goodbye to my 17 year old pit bull rescue. I’ve been the go to sitter in my neighborhood for the past 15 years and I’m lucky to have been successful in our local fur community by word of mouth. I am well versed in senior dogs, dogs with physical limitations, dogs with allergies, administering medication, and handling reactive behaviors. I live in a large home with no roommates or pets, and have a large fenced yard with lots of areas to explore. There’s a hiking trail just feet away from my front door and I miss having my 4 legged companion to walk the trails with. Being the fur mom of a rescue, I understand that each dogs comes with instructions and I take that seriously. I understand the importance of activity in high energy dogs, and that new sitters need to be extra affectionate in the absence of a dogs owner. I love spending time outside and will love your fur baby as if it were my own!

Mila took care of George with a tremendous amount of care and attention!! Our little guy almost didnt want to leave her behind when she dropped him off, which shows how comfortable he was with her. He came back in a great mood and very healthy, so we will work with her again, when needed.

We were very happy with the care our dog received. Mila was communicative, attentive to our instructions, and clearly took great care of our dog while we were away. It gave us real peace of mind knowing everything was being handled so well. We’re grateful to have found someone we can trust and would gladly book with her again.

Mila has been incredibly responsible, reliable and considerate in the many years she has helped us with our animals. She is an avid animal lover, and it shows in how she caters to others animals as well as her own. It’s clear she has the knowledge to keep up with your pets training, and the energy to exhaust them! I fully trust her with caring for my animals. My dogs might even love her more than they love me!
