Sierra can care for
Availability
I currently offer drop-in visits only, which allows me to give each pet focused attention and personalized care in the comfort of their own home. Since I work as a freelancer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, so I’m happy to adjust visits based on your pet’s routine and your scheduling needs. During visits, I can help with feeding, fresh water, playtime, companionship, medications, litter box cleaning, basic grooming if needed, and making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. For dogs, I’m also happy to provide walks based on your needs, indoor or outdoor playtime, and practice basic training and positive reinforcement to help maintain good habits and routines. I’m also happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their space and carefully follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
Information Sierra L. would like to know about your pet
It’s very helpful to know your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, personality, energy level, and any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. The more I understand your pet, the better I can make them feel comfortable, safe, and happy during visits!
A typical day
I love making sure pets stay both mentally and physically stimulated during visits! For cats, I’m happy to spend time cuddling, playing with toys, giving attention, or simply keeping them company based on their personality and comfort level. If your cat enjoys it, I can also do safe and supervised short outdoor exploration or fresh air time, just like my cat Sesame loves! For dogs, I enjoy combining both physical exercise and mental enrichment through walks, playtime, basic leash/following practice, simple command training with positive reinforcement, and fun games like tug-of-war or fetch. I always try to match each pet’s energy level and make sure they feel engaged, comfortable, and cared for.

Loving & Reliable Dog+Cat Sitter🐾
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Siyu (Sierra) and I’m a passionate animal lover with experience caring for both cats and dogs. I currently have a 6-year-old rescue cat named Sesame, who’s been such an important part of my life and taught me a lot about patience, trust, and understanding each pet’s unique personality. I also have volunteer experience at an animal shelter, where I cared for cats and dogs with different temperaments and needs. In addition, I’m currently helping care for my friend’s dog Timmy, a sweet 6-year-old medium-sized dog, which has given me hands-on experience with walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and understanding dog behavior through daily interactions. I’m also preparing to welcome a puppy into my own family in the coming months, and I’ve spent a lot of time learning about dog training, behavior, and positive reinforcement techniques through online courses and educational resources because I truly care about providing the best care possible. I’m responsible, attentive, and detail-oriented, and I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I’ll care for them like they’re my own and provide plenty of updates and photos along the way! Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members!

Reviews
Timmy absolutely loves his walks with Sierra! He’s always so excited to go with her, and I can tell how happy he is every time. They’re incredibly responsible, and the detailed updates and records they provide give me total peace of mind. Highly recommend!
Sierra was absolutely amazing with our kittens. Before our trip, one of them unexpectedly needed medication, and Sierra handled all the care instructions so carefully and confidently. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. She constantly kept us updated with photos and videos from every visit, and it was obvious from the way the kittens interacted with her that they genuinely liked and trusted her. She also took her time playing with them and making sure they got attention, affection, and enrichment, not just the basic care. She didn’t just “check in” on them, she truly cared for them like they were her own. We came back to two happy, comfortable kittens, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Would highly recommend Sierra to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter!
I’ve known Sierra for over 10 years, and during that time I’ve come to deeply admire not only who she is as a person, but also how naturally she connects with animals. Sierra is one of the kindest and most genuine people I know. She has always had both dogs and cats, and what stands out to me is how she treats them—not just as pets, but as true members of her family. I’ve seen firsthand how attentive and loving she is, always making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. It’s never just a routine for her—it’s something she puts her whole heart into. What also gives me a lot of confidence in her is how responsible she is. Sierra consistently puts her pets first, no matter how busy life gets. She pays attention to every detail, whether it’s their diet, behavior, or environment. I’ve also seen her stay calm and focused in unexpected situations, which really shows how capable she is of handling emergencies with care and good judgment. I honestly can’t think of anyone more suited to run a pet daycare. Any pet owner would feel reassured knowing their animals are with Sierra, because she will care for them just like her own—with love, patience, and full dedication.
