Your Dog's Home Away From Home!

Welcome to a home where your dog's comfort and happiness is a top priority! I genuinely love all dog breeds and believe every pup deserves personalized care, abundant playtime, and endless cuddles. I have been on Rover since 2017, and I'm thrilled to extend that loving care to your furry family member. Working remotely full-time means I'm always home, providing consistent supervision and companionship. Whether it's invigorating walks, engaging playtime, or simply cozying up on the sofa (yes, dogs are absolutely welcome on the furniture here!), I'll ensure your dog feels completely at ease. While we do have a young child in the house, they are accustomed to dogs and look forward to welcoming a new furry friend. I'm here to answer any questions you have and to discuss how I can best meet your dog's unique needs.

Tia was very kind and listened closely to all of my instructions. It was our first time with Tia, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter. Tia also sent lots of pictures, and updates. I’m really glad I chose her to watch my girl!

This is our second long stay for our pup with Tia and her family, and it’s become something i will genuinely drive out the way for because of how confident and comfortable I am leaving my pup, Manny, in their hands. From the start, Tia was thoughtful about making sure it was the right fit, setting up a meet and greet. Their home, neighborhood, and yard feel like a little retreat. It’s the kind of place where you know your dog will be both safe and happy. Throughout the stay, Tia consistently sent updates, photos, and videos without me needing to ask. Every time, he looked relaxed, playful, and honestly… happier than I’ve ever seen him. That alone says everything. When my travel plans shifted and I needed to extend his stay, then arrived late the following day, Tia handled it with such kindness eliminating extra stress because of their flexibility. More than anything, it’s the peace of mind. I don’t spend time wondering how he’s doing because I know he’s being cared for in a way that feels genuine and attentive. We feel very lucky to have found Tia and her family and will absolutely continue booking!!

Tia was great with Casper! and we really appreciate that she was so attentive with him and made him feel like home while we were away. We felt comfortable he was in great care, highly recommend Tia.

Finally found the Rover sitter I’ve always hoped for! We have tried several sitters over the years and Tia is the first to truly deliver in terms of making me feel comfortable and at ease with Manny’s visit. She was incredibly easy to coordinate scheduling with, very responsive, and super welcoming everytime we stopped by for meet and greet/drop-off/pickup. She sent several photos each day and he looked engaged and happy throughout the trip! Also, their neighborhood is doggo paradise. So glad we found Tia and her family!

To provide your cherished pet with the most comfortable and stress-free stay, please provide as much detail as possible about their routine and schedule. Below are some questions that can help you share the most relevant information, but please don't hesitate to include anything else you feel is important for us to know: Daily Schedule: Detailed breakdown of their typical day (wake-up, potty breaks, meal times, playtimes, walks, bedtime). Feeding Instructions: -What food (brand, wet/dry)? -How much? -How often? -Any specific feeding rituals (e.g., slow feeder, elevated bowl)? -Any food allergies or dietary restrictions?

Exercise Needs: -How many walks per day and for how long? -Leash behavior (puller, reactive to other dogs/people, good recall)? -Favorite games or activities (fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys)? -Any limitations due to age or health (e.g., short walks only, no jumping)? Sleep Habits: -Where do they typically sleep (crate, dog bed, human bed, specific room)? -Any bedtime routines? -Are they allowed on furniture/bed at home? (We are fine with it here, but want to maintain consistency.) Behavior & Personality: -General Personality: (Shy, outgoing, playful, calm, curious, cuddly?) -Behavior with Strangers: How do they react to new people? -Behavior with Children: How do they interact with young children? (Crucial since there's a child in your home). -Behavior with Other Animals: How do they react to other dogs (if applicable on walks) -Anxieties/Fears: (Thunderstorms, fireworks, loud noises, separation anxiety, mail carrier, specific objects?) What helps them cope? -Bad Habits/Quirks: (Counter surfing, excessive barking, chewing, digging, resource guarding toys/food, escape artist?) -Training & Commands: What commands do they know (sit, stay, come, leave it)?
