Safety, trust & environment
My home is a pet-focused oasis with a spacious, fully fenced backyard—complete with a kiddie pool for play, grooming, or relaxing. Dedicated Private Suites: Your pet will not be crated or tucked away in a corner. Every guest receives their own private, full-sized room, such as our Grand Suite or Master Suite, ensuring they have a comfortable, stress-free space to call their own. Resident Pets: My home is shared with my cat and my rescue puppy, Lunalu. Please note that client pets are never intermingled with my own; your pet will enjoy their own private suite and dedicated attention. Safety & Logistics: For house-sitting bookings, my husband accompanies me to ensure my safety, as I do not currently drive. We are fully professional and maintain the highest level of respect for your home and privacy. While I am comfortable with cameras in common areas, I do request they be omitted from bathrooms and the room where we sleep. Care Instructions & Preferences When visiting your home or providing care, I want to maintain your pet's routine exactly as they are used to. To ensure I don’t accidentally disrupt their training or house rules, please provide a "Rules & Routine" list covering: Furniture Privileges: Are they allowed on the couch or bed? Behavioral Boundaries: Are there any specific commands or "bad habits" I should be aware of? Medical & Diet: I have extensive experience with timed medication administration and specialized diets; please provide clear instructions for both. Exercise & Grooming: I love taking dogs for walks and provide professional grooming services to keep your pet looking and feeling their best.

Reviews
Sia was very accommodating to my situation with my disability and two dogs! We worked out a plan that best suited my two babies, Stinko and Butters! I would most definitely recommend her to anyone! I wil definitely be using her services from here on. 🥹
We met while I was driving around searching for my lost cat, she was out walking to raise awareness on cancer or something for a donation site which is what originally caught my eye, we traded numbers in case she had seen my cat midnight which I texted her later to let her know I found, and I really liked her so I asked her to pet sit for me while I went on a trip, I'm old and my husband has already passed so she was really my only option last minute, I paid her 25$ an hour and from that day on she became my go to pet sitter for almost a YEAR and the only reason I stopped hiring her was because I stopped going out often due to my heart. she was AMAZING and my dogs got used to her super fast and LOVED her they ended up running to her and jumping everywhere anytime she came over they were so excited. I had cameras in the living room and kitchen and outside and once in a while would check in and they'd be piled on the couch napping together or swimming outside together ( I had a lake in my backyard ) she and I became super close as well like a grandchild to me and I ended up getting her to stay overnight a lot while I was away on work trips and she stayed in my guest room and she let the dogs sleep in the bed to which I thought was awesome since most dont do that but mine have attachment issues, shed send me pics of them through the day occasionally to which was awesome. It was nice to know my babies were taken care of while I was gone and to be updated and get to see it from time to time
Sia is a very responsible person, because she genuinely works hard to correct her mistakes. She also is very kind, caring, and considerate of others and the situation(s) they might be in. As well as that, she is very hard-working, and willing to put in the effort to make things the best she can.
Saya is an incredible carer! She has very special heart and a unique and caring personality with the love and attention she puts into practice!
