Pet care experience
Hi there! I recently relocated to the Bay Area from Chicago with my two Poms, Willie and Nelson. I love dogs and enjoy caring for pups while their families are away. My dogs are very social and used to a houseful of pups, from fosters to Rover stays, and are respectful of giving new pups their space when needed. For the past 5 years, I’ve cared for pups of all ages and sizes, and the dogs and their families have become life long friends. We’ve even had some pups travel with us during the holidays because their owners wanted them to stay with me and my crew! I’ll treat your dog as if he/she were my own and follow your guidance on schedule, likes and any special needs. Your dog will get lots of attention and exercise during the stay. I live in a pet friendly community on the 1st floor with an enclosed patio. I am located very close to Lick Mill Park, which is great for walks. I will always check with the owner before I take a dog to the dog park or on a hike and am happy to accommodate any medical needs. *meet and greets required for long term stays for new pups*
Reviews
Tricia took excellent care of our Pixel for 3 weeks. She regularly sent updates in via text, photos, and videos. Pixel being a fussy eater, she tried very hard to ensure that he ate something every day and didn't go hungry. Finally she has the sweetest little dogs who very great company for Pixel. I would whole heartedly recommend her as a dog-sitter!
Tricia and her dogs were simply wonderful! She worked with me to get my dog acclimated the new environment, and sent daily updates of his stay. My dog so enjoyed his stay he didn’t want to leave!
Tricia was responsive to texts when we were scheduling, and easy to work with. She sent photos of Benji while we were away. She was warm and friendly and Benji seemed very comfortable with Tricia, her home and her dogs. I think Benji will love more time with Tricia and her pups.
As a Rover sitter myself, I was happy to have found Tricia and her 2 pups. Josie was comfortable at Tricia’s place. She kept me updated daily with photos and in general was very responsive on communication which I appreciated. I will definitely consider Tricia for future stays.

My apartment has been puppy proofed and I have baby gates to separate dogs during feeding/nap time if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and can sleep in bed if that’s where they’re most comfortable.
Home
Information Tricia S. would like to know about your pet
Please only book with me if your pup is social and dog friendly! My little guys are very sweet and love other dogs. Please let me know their food/potty schedule, likes/dislikes, any medical conditions and any behavioral modifications that you’re working on. It’s also helpful to know if there’s anything that scares your pup (thunderstorms, bicycles, etc) and I’ll do my best to avoid those situations.
A typical day
Activities will depend on the dog. Dogs that want to chill will have free roam of the apartment and more playful pups will get lots of walks and indoor fetch. I enjoy running (hard to do with Pomeranians) so if you’re dog likes to run, I’d love a running buddy.
