Experienced Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I am a 3rd grade teacher in town and I have had dogs all my life. I have always been a "dog person". I currently have a Maltese mix, a pit mix, and a wire hair terrier mix, but I grew up with huskies. My dogs have always been a part of my family. When I can, I like to foster dogs in order to help find them a good home. I have had small and large dogs, puppies and senior dogs, as well as dogs with special needs. Growing up I often dog sat for family and friends and currently take care of my parents dog whenever they go out of town. Teaching makes my nights, weekends, and holidays free so I have plenty of availability to check on your pets.

Vicky was awesome! Sent pictures of my baby and kept me in the loop while Malibu was in her care! Will use her again

Vicky was great! She arrived exactly when she was scheduled to and made sure to send pictures to let us know our dog was being well taken care of. She was in contact with us when needed and responsive to any questions as had. We will be booking with her anytime we need a sitter in the future. She’s great!

Vicky was wonderful. She came over before we left, met the animals and went over things. She sent me pictures daily, and was on time with the feedings. It was such a peace of mind knowing the animals got to stay at home and were well taken care of. I would recommend VIcky with no problem at all!

Information Vicky D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know anything that would help your dog feel more comfortable in my home or while I am watching them at yours. I have experience with all types of breeds so I have no breed preference when dog sitting at someone's home.

A typical day

I can take your dog on walks around your neighborhood or wherever you normally walk them so that they are comfortable. I'm happy to take them to the park or just hang out and play.
