Fun & Active Pet Care

Hello! I am a huge animal lover and have several years of pet care experience. I have worked at pet cares, veterinary hospitals in the past and have taken courses in veterinary assisting. I have experience with senior pets, puppies, those requiring medical care and disabled. I also bathe, clean ears, massage and brush and provide special care for those needing a gentle touch. I love to play, exercise and be active with furry ones. We are about 10 minutes from Disneyland, Knott’s Berry farm and about 25 minutes from Huntington Beach. In my home, I have a large fenced back yard with one senior dog. My mother (who lends an helping hand,) and I provide care of all your furry ones and we are both passionate about animals and pets. I am capable of providing rooms for boarding and day care. They will get lots of mama and grandma love!

Silvana was amazing! She let Knox (Italian Greyhound) hang out with her and shadow her all day. Drop off and pickup went really smooth! The communication was wonderful too! She even sent a pic of Knox with an update on his care. Thank you for your excellent care of Knox while we adults played at Disneyland!!

Boarding • Jun 09, 2025

The normal dog sitter I use wasn’t available, so I booked with Silvana just a few weeks before my trip. She was able to watch my dog Ara on short notice which was good and also was available for a meet and greet. Ara came back fine and she seemed her normal self. The only thing I wish was that there was more proactive communication. I had to reach out myself to get updates and pictures to see how Ara was doing. As the pet parents, I like to be on my trips knowing my dog is ok and safe, but I found myself worrying a little too much since there wasn’t much communication. I also put a few days extra worth of food, but the bag was returned to me empty. So either Ara ate extra or the extra food was thrown out. Ara seemed to be ok when she returned home, so Silvana and her mom kept Ara safe.

Silvana and her mom were fantastic, as usual. They took great care of our huskies and put in place extra measures to make sure they were safe and sound. 100% recommend them!

I love caring for pets holistically- mind, body, spirit. We have aromatherapy in the doggie room and play southing sounds at night for them to get restful sleep. Let me know if you need any extras for your pet like our spa services (bath, special love.) If your pet requires special attention or medication, please let me know when to provide.
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.
