Highlights
Pet care experience
Big Walks, Big Play & Couch Naps
Every pet is a total original, whether they're a high-energy goofball, a timid cuddle-bug, or a wise old senior set in their ways. They deserve care tailored to their unique rhythm & vibe, not a one-size-fits-all kennel. As a lifelong animal friend, who has raised multiple cats and dogs, I meet pets right at their comfort level. That might mean burning off steam with a big energy walk, patiently building trust with a timid cat, or just hanging out on the couch for a sweet post-play nap. What Sets Me Apart: - Reading the Room (and your Pet): I specialize in recognizing a pet's individual needs and providing the right energy and personalized care for them. I bring upbeat, structured energy for active dogs, and a calm, grounded patience for anxious or sensitive animals. - All Life Stages & Custom Routines: From puppy chaos and strict medication schedules, to gentle slow-paced senior mobility care, I follow your exact instructions to the letter. -100% Dedicated & Solo Visits: Being a father of four and a primary caregiver, means staying organized and calm under pressure. Adapting to the unexpected to keep everyone safe, healthy, and happy is second nature. I attend every walk, drop-in, and overnight 100% solo so your pet gets my full focus and attention. -Bonus Green Thumb: If you have houseplants or an outdoor garden, I'm always happy to keep them watered and thriving while I'm watching your home!

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client's home, safety and security are the absolute top priorities. Before any service begins, I appreciate a thorough meet-and-greet to review emergency contacts, household entry/exit routines, and your pet's specific habits. I take a proactive approach to pet safety and home care by, - Preventing Trouble: Constantly monitoring for "escape artists", fence-digging, or temptations to scratch or chew furniture. Prevention is always best, so a gentle redirect helps avoid issues to begin with. - Securing the Home: Ensuring all doors, gates, and leashes are double checked, to keep your home fully secure during and after every visit. - Cleanliness & Maintenance: Promptly cleaning up any accidents, muddy paws, or litter box mess so your home stays as tidy as you left it. - Routine & Health Care: Administering medications precisely on time and adhering strictly to your established routines to keep your pet calm and confident. You can also expect regular photo updates and clear communication with each visit, so you have complete peace of mind.
Ratings and reviews
VJ takes care of our kitties and dogs when we travel. He is caring and reliable. The litter box is always scooped, and the food and water dishes are always full when we return. He is great about sending photos on each visit, which helps me to relax with the knowledge that my babies are safe, happy and taken care of.
Victor was amazing! Very flexible, and ready to help. After my mom had a hip replacement surgery, he was more than happy to help take care of our Miniature Schnauzer, Juniper, while I was away. I know Juniper will be excited to see him again!
I have known Victor for more than 10 years. He is caring and responsible pet owner (2cats & 1 dog). He is also the primary parent in charge of 3, almost 4 children and he is super with all of them. Victor will give any pet in his care the best of attention and his clients will be very, very satisified.
Victor is a dedicated and patient pet lover. He is mindful and attentive of each pet's individual needs. Your pets will be incredibly happy and well cared for with Victor as their pet sitter!

Schedule
My current schedule offers exceptional flexibility and open availability throughout the week. I manage my own daily calendar, so I can easily adapt to your pet's routine rather than forcing them into a rigid window. If your pet need a morning walk, a midday visit, or dedicated evening care, I am able to prioritize their schedule to provide them my full, undivided attention.

- We listen and we don't judge!! Every pet is a good boy or sweet girl at heart, but all of us have our silly quirks, bad habits, and guilty pleasures. Being low maintenance is overrated, I'm proud to be able to attend to their every unique need. To make sure your pet stays safe, happy and confident while we hang out, full disclosure is always best. Surprises on a walk or during a drop-in put everyone at risk, so please share all their dirty secrets ahead of time including, - Dietary & Health Needs: Severe food allergies, strict feeding routines, or precise medication schedules - Tricky Behaviors: Leash reactivity, resource guarding, food aggression, counter-surfing, door-darting, fence-digging, etc. - Sensitivities & Fears: Fear of thunderstorms, anxiety around bikes/dogs/children, or specific places they dislike being touched - Household Rules: Where they are allowed to roam, couch rules, and any crating routines Nothing scares me off easily, I really do love working with pets of all temperaments. The more I know up front, the better I can tailor my care to keep your pet relaxed and your home completely secure!
