Safety, trust & environment

I ensure that each pet I look after is well taken care of, like you never left. From feeding them on time and with correct portions to playing and snuggling them all day long, I strive to ensure your pets are relaxed and comfortable. Depending on your unique dog, I will tailor our time together differently. Some love long walks and lots of playtime, while others prefer lots of treats and cuddles. All preferences are welcome, and our moments together will be photographed and sent to you for your peace of mind! Whatever the needs of your pet, I will work with you to ensure they are as happy as they can be when we're together!

Information Nadia C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet requires any medication so I am accurately prepared to administer it. Additionally, if your animals have any unique quirks that are important I know about, please tell me! If your dog is aggressive around others, or fearful of outside, it is important for me to know so I can tailor their stay for them! I live in a dog-free home, so pet-aggression does not matter; however, it is good information to know for when I am taking them on long walks!

A typical day

I love going on long walks with pets around Ithaca -- there's always so much to explore! After our walks and games of fetch, I enjoy relaxing and playing inside with the animals. You can expect lots of pet photos -- they're so cute I can't resist taking them, and itll allow you to see what we're up to in real time! I'll make sure they're fed and well watered, and most importantly give them lots of love!

Pet care experience

I am a current university student looking to engage with animals again! I have been a dog and cat owner for over nine years, and am experienced in all aspects of care. From feeding and medication, to walking and playing, I am delighted to spend time with your pets! Additionally, I am ready to learn the unique needs of your dogs to make sure they are as happy as can be! You can expect lots of photos -- I adore making memories with your pets and sharing them with you! I love the outdoors and exploring Ithaca, so long walks are guaranteed with your dog. I'm extremely attentive, and am available to drop by many times a day when taking care of your pet. Cuddles and licking are encouraged. Importantly, I am experienced in administering medication to any animal that may require it. I am committed to ensuring that your pet stays happy and healthy while with me! With my flexible hours, I am able to check in on animals throughout the day. I am able to walk, feed, play, or cuddle with your pets whenever best works for you! I will give them all the love and care I give my own. You'll be sure to receive lots of photos!
