Highlights
Pet care experience
Proud, loving dog owner/volunteer
If accepted into your pup's life, I promise to provide exceptional care; whether that be in the way of belly rubs, playing fetch, going for long walks, or all of that and more. I am a freelance sportswriter with very flexible hours, so am generally available anytime. I inherited my love of all dogs from my mom, as we grew up with many amazing dogs and cats during my childhood. My mother has run her own pet-sitting/dog-walking business for years and I was able to gain plenty of valuable experience assisting her towards the end of high school and through college. Now as an adult, I have carried on the tradition as a dedicated volunteer at Helping Hounds Dog Rescue in the Syracuse area from 2015-2021 and more recently, at Mohawk Hudson Humane Society in the Albany area from 2023-2024. My wife and I adopted our two pups from Helping Hounds in 2016 and 2017 and they are a huge part of our lives :)

Safety, trust & environment
The safety and comfort of your pet will always come first! I am very used to all types of dogs, from energetic puppies to more mellow senior pups, and small dogs like Pomeranians and Shih Tzus to bigger ones like Pitbulls and Great Danes. I'm very comfortable with outgoing dogs or ones that are on the timid side and need extra patience with strangers :)
Ratings and reviews
Victor was wonderful and was able to stop by and walk my dog with only one day notice. I appreciate your prompt communication and taking Luigi on a nice walk. Thank you so much!!
Victor did a great job completely as expected.
Victor was amazing. He was sure to send an update and photo with each walk and took the time to play with our pup and show him some love while we were way. We would definitely hire him again.
Victor has been wonderful with our dog Kodi, a pit mix. We needed him to fill in at a moments notice and he has been wonderful!
Victor was reliable, considerate and great with the dogs. I have family staying at my house, so he had the added challenge of dealing with kids and others on his visits. Apparently, the family liked him as much as the pups and I had positive feedback from everyone. I have two senior dogs and one young Jack Russell mix who is a spit-fire. I was worried about my 15+ year old Chihuahua, but He did well. Thanks Victor!!!!
Did an excellent job. My boys were well cared for.
