About: Hello everyone! I have had an emotional support animal for over 2 years now. I have dealt with behavior problems to training him with my fiancé since we got him at 8 weeks old. He has grown into an amazing, loving, and well behaved dog. It has taken lots of care, love, and patience to get here and I learned a lot about dogs in the process. I am an animal lover completely and I work from home, so I get to spend so much time with him, which makes it that much better. Please consider me when choosing care for your dog as I will provide exceptional care & update you as you desire me to. I work from home and get done at 4pm every day, so I can take breaks when needed for walks and more. I have a lot of flexibility in my day to day. I have a fenced in yard & golden retriever mix who is about 40 lbs who will keep your dog entertained. There is also a dog park that I can bring them to as well.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, which has given me a deep understanding of how to care for pets with different needs and personalities. My family has always had dogs, and I currently work part-time at a doggy daycare, where I regularly handle a variety of breeds, sizes, and temperaments. At home, I care for three dogs, two cats, and four bunnies. My background helps me adapt quickly to each animal's unique routine and behavior. So, whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs a little extra attention, I’m confident in my ability to provide safe, compassionate, and reliable care. Pet care is already a central part of my routine. I currently work at a doggy daycare, which has given me valuable hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. I’m also a college student, but my classes are limited to Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings for just a few hours, leaving my days and the rest of the week largely open. When I take on a client, I make their pets my priority. I’m flexible with my schedule and always willing to adjust or take time off from other commitments to ensure your pet receives my full attention and consistent care. I currently care for three Great Pyrenees, four bunnies, and two cats of my own. This range of experience has taught me how to adjust my care style to fit each animal’s unique needs. Whether I’m doing drop-ins, walks, or house sitting, I always aim to keep pets comfortable and routines consistent. I follow instructions carefully, make sure pets feel safe and relaxed in my presence, and treat your home with respect.

First time using Victoria and nothing but great things to say! My pooch even made a mess because of storms the night before and she cleaned it up great. She made sure my girl had play time and made sure she ate before she left the visit. She always provided a report card of her visit which included pics too.
