Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs for over 15 years - including my own Brussels Griffon - Grem. I love dogs, I’m attentive to their needs, and I’m a very responsible person in general. Taking care of pets is my main profession right now. Let me take care of your dog as well as I take care of my own.

Vera was great with my pup while I was out of town and he came back happy and healthy. Sent regular pictures and updates and was very flexible with a pretty last minute booking.

I’ve had a great experience with Vera dog-sitting my big boy Pit-bull. She was  communicative, I had no problem booking with her and then talking over all the details about my dog and his needs. Vera took a wonderful care of him while I was away. I’ll certainly book Vera again! She’s a true dog-lover and a caring and responsible person. Pleasure to deal with people like her!
