Big yard, Lots of Love and Walks!!!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs my whole life. Phoebe, my sweet and super smart Jack Russel, and Porkchop, "The Supermodel of Pugs" both passed from old age recently. I was there for them and made sure they passed with love. I am taking a break from having my own dogs, but I miss having dogs in the house. I miss the silliness and affection that all dogs seem to provide. I promise I will love your dog like I've loved my own. My house has a beautiful backyard for them to hang out and I'm very good with directions on how you want your dog fed and cared for. They will be treated with love and kindness always! I work flexible hours during the week and my weekends are spent working on my garden, home projects etc. I'm great with providing medication and If you're dog needs their wrinkles cleaned I'm an expert! I've also trained dogs to walk "nicely" on leashes.

Victoria was a wonderful dog sitter for our Boston Terrier, Bowie! Bowie had a 9 night stay and Victoria was awesome and responsible, following all of our routines for him. Her home is super cozy with an enclosed yard, and Bowie looked like he was having an awesome time, which made us feel really relieved while we were away. I would highly recommend Victoria for petsitting!

Victoria was very sweet and responsive to any questions I had before and during my dogs stay.

Victoria is the absolute best and has been a life-saver more than once. Her patience, flexibility, and attention to our pup Willow (who can be a handful) is loved by our family. Willow can struggle with other dogs and Victoria has always been willing to provide us a lone booking, but even when there is a double-stay due to our last minute schedule changes Victoria's calm demeanor and constant control of the situation is the perfect solution (Willow has even made a new friend :) We can't recommend her enough and if our words aren't convincing on their own, just the mention of her name makes Willow's tail wag with excitement!

Victoria is amazing. I'm so happy to have found her. She's truly a dog lover and put my mind at ease when I was nervous to leave one of ours who tends to be quite needy. But both of our dogs were super comfortable right away and had a great time. We already booked with Victoria again for next month and I'm so happy we found a reliable pet sitter! Thank you!!

I Love Pugs! Actually, I love all dogs, but pugs remind me of little guy, Porkchop. What I usually want to know about a person's dog is how are they in situations with other dogs. I sometimes board a couple of dogs from different households and it is so important to make sure everyone is safe and happy. Food aggression, leash aggression etc are things that can be managed, but it important to know ahead of time so I can preplan your dog's stay. Every dog seems to have some silly habits so I like to know these too. My pug Porkchop loved to get into open trashcans and rip tissues so I always had to be mindful to keep trashcans on counters when I left the house. When he was too quiet, I knew he was into something (I'm sure there are some of you who get what I'm saying haha)

A typical day

I live next to La Fayette Square; a beautiful neighborhood that is great for dog walks. Depending on your dog's temperament and how you care for your dog, I can take them to the Culver City dog park, Griffith Park hiking or just hang with them in my backyard. They can help me garden!
