Hi, I'm Tia! 🐾 I grew up surrounded by cats and I'm a huge dog lover, so pets have always been part of my life. My current flat doesn't allow me to have one of my own, so sitting is my way of getting my fix of furry cuddles while helping you out. I'm new to sitting through the app, but I've cared for animals my whole life, so I'm comfortable with feeding, playtime, walks and keeping them happy. As I'm still building my sitting experience, I don't currently offer injectable medication, training or grooming, and I only walk calm, well-trained dogs. I know pets are family, and like little ones, they thrive on routine. Whether it's a specific feeding time, a favourite snack, their oral medication or a particular spot on the sofa, I'll follow your pet's routine so they feel safe and settled while you're away. I work in central London and can work from home one day a week, so I'm usually free before 8–9am and after 6pm. I'm happy to pop in for 30 minutes to 1.5 hours for feeding, play, fuss and attention, and I can water plants, bring in the post or take in deliveries while I'm there. Dog walks are around 30 minutes at a nearby park, and dogs will always stay on their lead. I'm also happy to do overnight stays, from a single night up to a week. I'm in the office four days a week, so I'll be out from around 9am to 6pm on those days. Overnight stays suit pets who are comfortable being left alone during the day. They'll get my full attention before and after work, with plenty of cuddles in the evenings. Before the stay, I'd love a quick run-through of your security routine, such as which alarms to set, which lights to leave on or off and how to lock up, so I can follow it exactly. I won't bring any visitors or guests into your home. I'm happy to meet you and your pet beforehand so we can get to know each other!
