Availability

I am ready to love your dog as my own! I am home for a majority of the week and your pup will not be left alone for more than 4 hours. I allow for pups to hang around on furniture and enjoy fresh air in the yard while supervised. I have a pup of my own to keep yours company and she is super sweet with others. She has not yet met a pup that she does not like. There’s a high probability of our pups becoming besties. Your pup will feel like they never left their home💕

Information Vicky D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pupper has any special needs, routines, or behaviors that I should be aware of. I want to make your pup feel comfortable during their stay.

A typical day

I love seeing pups run around enjoying the sunshine, so you’ll bet we will be outside! We will be checking out all the smells in the neighborhood or enjoying a game of chase or catch in my backyard!

Pet care experience

Hi there :D Your pup deserves all of the attention and cuddles while you are away. I am an experienced pup owner who has always had a soft spot for all animals. I’ve owned pups of all sizes - from chatty chihuahua to howling husky! During your pup’s stay, they will get the chance to get the zoomiez in my fenced yard, take a stroll around the neighborhood, snack on some treats and cuddle up on the couch after a long day’s work. I am fairly experienced with crate training and can help with this if needed. Open to all pooches, fluffers and pupperinos.

My girl has stayed with Vicky a few times now and she's always a pleasure. Keeps me updated and sends pics consistently.

Vicky was so good with our dog and I could tell through photos and videos that he was happy there! Thank you, Vicky, for taking care of our dog so well!

Vicky (and Daisy) made my first Rover experience so wonderful. Vicky is a sweetheart and took such loving care of my pup. She made sure to send sweet updates each day…I could see that my pup was having such a nice time (and probably will be sad to come home!). Thank you Vicky and Daisy! Hope to see you both again in the future. ☺️
