Animal "whisperer" and lover of all

Pet care experience

I connect instantly with animals, reading their body language and energy. I'm happy with all dogs and cats, but am especially grateful to connect with your skittish or traumatized animal. I am very patient and enjoy spending time with animals. I'll run around with your loved one, or slowly meander if needed. I have a car that can take larger dogs on adventures. I love hikes and nature. I can take animals on walks with spurts of running, but I am not a long distance runner. I'll roll around and play. I can also work on obedience needs if you have a routine you're trying to establish with your pet. I train cats too! They love giving high-fives and rolling over for you. I just finished up watching a cat named Ginger who was meowing all the time and wouldn't allow herself to be petted. She quickly showed me that she wanted to drink out of the facet. By the end of my week of house-sitting with her, she was curled up on my chest and giving kitty kisses. I'm currently in training on how to teach and train with a clicker. The dogs in my life have been my best friends for as long as I can remember. As I live in an apartment now and travel for work, I have a cat instead of a dog. We are fast friends. I'm one of those people who loves to listen and to be in the present moment; so I get along with animals famously.

Veronica was great with our furbaby! She was prompt, pleasant and came by for a meet & greet to make sure all were comfortable. We’ll definitely be repeat customers!

Veronica was spectacular, one of the best pet sitters we've ever had. For both dogs and cats, would absolutely use her in the future. She took our dog on walks in Forest Park and took care of the kitties too for a week. Absolutely adored her, cannot recommend highly enough.

Veronica was amazing while watching my dog, Whit, over the holidays! She sent so many wonderful photos, videos, and updates which made it feel less stressful being away. She took great care of Whit and he clearly loved having her around :) I would highly recommend her for pet sitting. Thank you again, Veronica!

Veronica did such a wonderful job looking after Rosie. Rosie’s a bit of a sensitive lady, and Veronica completely got her - Rosie was comfortable right away. She was extremely responsive, respectful of our home, and took amazing update pics. Thank you!
