Exceptional pet care
Pet care experience
Hello! About me- I believe in treating dogs and pets I care for as my own since I know that's how I'd like my pets treated if they’re with someone else. That being said, don’t be embarrassed to let me know that your pets need to be sung a bedtime song and get tucked in at night (it’s happened, and, I’ve happily obliged :)) From pampered to low maintenance, I’m flexible in caring for all types of pets. My background- I grew up in Scripps Ranch with a golden retriever and I’d been walking dogs in my neighborhood since I was about 12 (used to charge $1 a walk back then!) I’ve also worked in NYC for Running Paws- a dog running/walking/ sitting company which was one of the most unique and rewarding jobs I’ve had. I’m athletic and strong so I’m comfortable with high energy dogs and large breeds, and have experience with dogs who are leash reactive/ fear aggressive/ or have other behavior issues. Your pets will get lots of extra love and attention while you're away. Happy animals make me happy!
Reviews
Vera dropped in and checked on the pups while we had a night out. She had great communication and went the extra mile with them. We highly recommend Vera!

Vera was so attentive with our pets and flexible with our schedule when we booked a last minute getaway. 110% would recommend her help!
Vera was absolutely amazing with our pups and our cat and definitely went the extra mile and making sure they were good throughout their time. Definitely spoiled.
About Vera K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm trustworthy and have integrity and will treat your home with respect during times of access. I like to keep things neat and tidy and will happily follow particular instructions for how you’d like me to interact with your pet in the home. I can do chores around the house such as watering plants, bringing in mail, taking out the trash, and caring for cats/fish/additional pets. Anything reasonable!
Information Vera K. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know a dog's temperament before sitting them, if they're friendly with other dogs/people, and any other quirks they might have. I don't have breed preferences.
A typical day
I can take your dog for long walks (hour+), hikes, running, or to the beach or park. You let me know their exercise level and I can accommodate!
Services
Vera can watch in your home
Availability
Currently I cannot do overnight stays, only drop ins and walks throughout the day. I’m flexible about timing for drop ins, from 8am to 10pm. For dogs with special needs I can be flexible with the time I spend with them and check in on them more frequently.
