Your Fur Baby's Trusted Pal🐾

Looking for a sitter you can trust? No need to look any further. I've had over 10+ years of experience caring for fur babies! In fact, I grew up in a household with 2 Shih Tzu Terrier mixes; named Diva (who passed in 2015) and Coco (passed in late due -2019). They are truly missed but both brought me so much joy! Unfortunately, things took a drastic turn when they got sick. I was in complete shock but I was quickly able to adapt to their new needs to give them proper care and love (i.e administration of oral and topical medications). We lived in every moment until the end. Their favorite things to do were going on evening walks (but for Coco runs she was sneaky one and would try to get out every now and then), playing catch in the park, and getting nonstop belly rubs while we watched movies together. Even though I currently do not have another fur baby, I definitely have plenty of love to give to yours and have the experience to back it up. In addition to caring for my small pups, I am also familiar with those that of larger size and those who are older/younger too. Rover has reinforced this experience by providing me with plenty of opportunities to care for pets in all walks of life. So if it sounds like I’m your girl… Please contact me to schedule a meet up I would love to meet you both 😊

Safety, trust & environment

When booking with me, I make sure that we are all comfortable before I book the service - this is typically done during a meet and greet at your home. During the meet, I gather details on your pet (i.e. behaviors, favorite walking routes, feeding routines, medications if applicable) and answer any questions/concerns you may have about the visit. This also provides me with the opportunity to see where I will be at - that way I can ensure the area has/will be properly cleaned and that it is safe as well. From there, if we are a good fit for each other then the service will be booked. Continuous updates are provided throughout all services to put your mind at ease - this may include texted check ins, photos, and/or videos.

Nia came through and saved the day! I couldn't have picked a better sitter for my boys. On top of being super responsive and accepting a relatively last minute booking, she also was very personable and kind. I was so thankful that despite not feeling 100%, she still watched my dogs. I think I can speak for Zeke and Smush in saying we are all happy to only book with Nia moving forward. She’s the best!

We had Nia drop by twice a day to help take out our 17 yr old dachshund for potty breaks. She was always on time, very professional, and extremely communicative. She also sent lots of photos to let us know how things were going. We will be looking to have Nia do drop-in visits in the future and overnight stays.

Nia was incredibly professional, caring, polite and genuinely cares about animals and people. I would trust her implicitly with housesitting or pet sitting! Nia is a gem.

I merely ask that you advise me of the following about your dog(s): - is your dog trained - how is their behavior (are they aggressive around other people or dogs; are they destructive ... etc.) - do they have their shots and are they taking flea medication - do they take any other medication(s)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
