Recent UMD grad who loves pups!

Pet care experience

I am a recent college graduate who has always loved animals. All throughout high school, I interned for PetConnect Rescue. At the rescue, I was in charge of taking care of and cleaning after dozens of dogs at a time. I also worked with training them in order to make them more adoptable. I’m comfortable with all breeds, but I have a soft spot for the big guys. I’m the rescue mom of two lab mixes, and I am used to regularly taking them out on walks. I’m accustomed to dog/house sitting for various friends/family, so I have gained a lot of experience through that. Not only will I make sure your pets are happy and healthy, you’ll have the security of knowing that I’m not doing it out of obligation, rather, I just genuinely enjoy taking care of your adorable and precious family member.

Vicky is one of the best handlers that I have ever met in my life. As an owner of two dogs (an 11 year old English Bull Terrier and an 8 year old Shiba Inu) I know how it is like having the right dog walker, a person who is responsible, careful and reliable for taking care of your puppies. She is one on a million person, she baby sitters my dogs in any occasion we have to travel, staying in our apartment without any problems. She also is a resourceful woman who is able to solve any difficult situation you may encounter with your furry family when you are not at home. I strongly recommend Vicky to walk and take care of your dogs.

Information Vicky G. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any breed preferences, but I would like to know if the dog plays well with others. Coming from a rescue background, I’ve worked with every breed mix under the sun, Rottweilers, pit bulls, labs, Goldens, German shepherds, poodles, etc. And what I’ve seen is that behavior is not exclusively by the Any breed can be social and any breed can be antisocial.

A typical day

I really enjoy going to parks in order to ply with toys and just run around. But if you’re dog is good with others, I especially enjoy taking them to dog parks so that they can socialize. This is especially important if you have a puppy (that has received all of its vaccinations, of course).
