Pet care experience

I love all creatures big or small!!

I have always had dogs in my life and can't imagine life without them. As well as walking and playing with my own dogs everyday I am a volunteer at True Friends shelter in Montrose PA where I have been walking dogs for 5 years. I believe all dogs deserve to live in the home as if they are your own children. I want you to feel as comfortable as possible while your pet is in my care as well as your dog not feeling stressed while your away. I will spoil your dog as if they are my own. Special needs or diets are not a problem. I can house train your puppy while you're at work or away. I will come to your house to visit, feed and walk your pets.

We left our one-year-old beagle/terrier for an overnight with Vicki and her two dogs, and she had the time of her life, both running around Vicki's large fenced back yard and carousing inside! We visit friends in the area (two hours from our home) on a regular basis when we are there for work, and knowing we have Vicki waiting in the wings to take care of our dog-baby has just made our life a whole lot more simple and serene. When we picked up our dog after 24 hours of puppy camp, she snuggled into her car bed and slept all the way home, contented and well-exercised. We will 100% be visiting Vicki again!

Vicki was great with my big, high-energy dog. She has a nice place in the country away from busy roads. Will definitely use her again.

Vicki did a great job caring for our beloved pet while we were away for a week's vacation. She communicated to us with updates to his adjustment of his stay and included wonderful photos too. We completely trust her with our pet and will definitely use her services again in the future.

Vicky is a miracle to us! We’ve had to be home every 12 hours to administer insulin since our older dog was diagnosed 5 months ago, and finding Vicky gives us flexibility again. She’s caring, communicative, and very prompt! Very happy with her.

A typical day

I live in the middle of 20 acres surrounded by forest and on a dirt road that doesn't get much traffic. Big fenced in back yard to play off leash. Your dog will get morning and evening walks with hikes in the woods as well. Lots of dog toys inside and outside and I will be right in the middle playing and running with them.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

No females in heat
Vicki can host up to 3 pets per night
I do not have a breed preference as long as your dog isn't aggressive. Also need your dog to be tick and flea protected. You will need to provide your dogs food and bed (if they use one). I have plenty of leashes, bowls, crates (only if you use them) and toys but feel free to bring whatever you think will make your dog more comfortable. Your dog must get along with cats. If not sure then the cat meet and greet is a must.
