Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable Pet Lover Here to Help!
I’m currently in college, so I had to leave my 7 year old labradoodle, Toby, at home—he means the world to me. I started pet sitting in early high school, and as I got older, that turned into babysitting as well. My experience ranges from just dog walking, to coming over for meals and potty breaks, to spending nights at family's homes with their beloved animals. I absolutely love animals and am the kind of person who stops to pet every dog I see outside!

Safety, trust & environment
I can't have pets in my apartment because of the rules here but Im happy to care for your animals in your home however you wish! For my dog back home we usually leave the back door open for him since we have a fenced in yard. Additionally we sometimes use his crate and a shock collar for training so I am familiar with those. Because Ive worked for different families their house rules and animals needs are all different. So I will adapt to whatever your family needs from me!
Ratings and reviews
Talia communicated with us great and kept us up to date with all Bodie’s antics. She was great with Bodie. Would definitely recommend her
Talia did such an amazing job taking care of my beautiful dog Phoenix and my sweet little cat Sadie while I was on vacation in Michigan with my family. Phoenix got lots of exercise and hiking adventures and Sadie got lots of love. Talia was very communicative with me and sent photos of my sweet pets regularly, and my home was spotless when I returned. Would definitely ask Talia to watch my pets again. Five stars! Can’t recommend her highly enough.
Our dog loves Talia. She is so sweet with my very clingy dog.
Talia was wonderful with our dog! She sent the most adorable pictures throughout her stay which made being away so much easier. Our dog warmed up to her immediately which says a lot. Came home to find everything just as we left it and would absolutely recommend her!
Talia was great with our dog. She communicated well with us and made sure our dog had everything she needed while we were gone.
Talia is attentive and a great communicator and cares for our pets like they’re her own. Can’t recommend her enough!

Schedule
I'm about to start my third year at CSU, so I'm free full time through the summer until classes start on Aug 24. Starting then, I'm back in school with a set weekly schedule: mornings free Mon/Wed, afternoons free Fri, and free from afternoon onward Tue/Thu. I can also house sit on weekends (Friday morning through early Monday) if you need more full time care, and I'm open to weekday dog sitting too depending on the dog's needs. Happy to chat about what would work best for your pup!

- It’s important for me to know ahead of time your pet’s feeding schedule, any allergies, medications, or medical needs, and their usual behavior (like if they’re shy or super energetic). I also like to know any household rules (such as furniture boundaries) and what helps them feel comfortable or have fun. For dogs, it’s especially helpful to understand their behavior on walks—whether they pull on the leash, are reactive to other dogs or people, or have any triggers I should be aware of. I really just want both you and your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and happy! For cats, it's helpful to know their personality and whether they're more independent or social. I'd also want to know their feeding routine, any hiding spots or safe spaces they like, and whether they're strictly indoor or allowed outside.
