Availability
I’m a full-time caregiver with a flexible, free-range schedule—I don’t work a traditional 9 to 5. When I’m not cat or dog sitting, I’m usually babysitting, doing side gigs, or making deliveries with Uber Eats and DoorDash. My days are adaptable, which allows me to give plenty of attention, care, and time to the pets I’m responsible for. I’m available for check-ins, walks, and overnight stays based on what your pet needs!

Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and comfort. In my home, I keep the space cozy, pet-proofed, and welcoming with lots of love and supervision. In the client’s home, I respect the space and maintain their pet’s normal routine so they feel secure and stress-free. I send regular updates, photos, and always go the extra mile to ensure your pet is happy and cared for like family.

Energetic & Loving Dog Sitter
Pet care experience
Since 2019, I’ve been providing loving, reliable pet care with experience in dog sitting, house sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and more. I bring high energy, patience, and genuine passion to every animal I care for. Whether it’s a playful pup, a shy cat, or a senior dog who just needs gentle companionship, I show up with consistency, love, and respect for their unique needs. Your pets are family—and I treat them like it.

Reviews
Thea was awesome! 10/10 recommend
Thea does a wonderful job with my dog. I use her from all of my dogs walks and feeding. She is timely and spends quality time with my furry family child. I strongly recommend her and will continue to utilize her services.
Excellent
I can’t recommend Thea Shaw enough as a dog sitter. From the moment we met, I could tell she had a natural connection with animals. My dog instantly felt comfortable around her, which says a lot—he’s usually slow to warm up to new people. Thea is attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated with photos and little notes while I was away, giving me complete peace of mind. When I came home, my dog was calm, happy, and clearly well taken care of. It’s such a relief to know that someone as trustworthy and compassionate as Thea is just a call away when I need help. She’s truly one of a kind!
