About Victoria D.

Dog skills

7 years of experience
Oral medication administration
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

I offer dog watching and walking services, and I'm also equipped with background knowledge to handle various situations that may arise. My experience from past jobs has provided me with valuable insights and skills that allow me to be proactive in ensuring the safety and well-being of the dogs under my care. I'm confident in my ability to provide a secure and enriching environment for your furry friends.

Information Victoria D. would like to know about your pet

When I'm watching your dog or cat, I'd love to know about their daily routine, including walk schedules, and potty breaks. Also, what commands do they know? Do they have any allergies or medical conditions I should be aware of? How do they typically interact with other dogs, cats, or kids? Is there anything else I should be aware of?

A typical day

When I'm hanging out with a dog or cat, there are tons of ways I can make sure they have a blast while also catering to their energy levels! If they're super energetic, I'll head to a park for a game of fetch or a brisk walk. I can also keep them active, which is a great way to keep them mentally stimulated. For calmer moments, a gentle petting session can be super soothing. I always remember to have treats handy to reward good behavior, and I shower them with plenty of attention and praise. Dogs thrive on connection, so even just being present with them is a success.

From small to big I love them all

Pet care experience

I have a background that spans from working in horse barns, pet daycare centers, and in-home pet sitting, I bring a unique level of experience and confidence to animal care. I’m comfortable handling animals of all sizes and temperaments, from spirited large-breed dogs to small-breed dogs, and I understand how to create a calm, structured environment that makes pets feel secure. Living with multiple large dogs has taught me the importance of clear communication, routine, and reading animal behavior closely. My time working with horses has also given me a strong foundation in safety, responsibility, and calm leadership—skills that apply to all species. Whether I’m walking, feeding, or simply keeping a pet company, I treat every animal with the same care and respect I give my own. I happy to clean, walk, give medication, or be there for a senior dog.

Victoria has taken care of my dog and cat numerous times, feeding them, playing with them, walking them, cleaning cat litters, etc. She is super reliable and truly cares for the animals. She spends quality time with them and makes sure they are well taken care of. I highly recommend Victoria!

10/10, would let her lead the pack again! I don’t know what kind of wizardry Victoria D. possesses, but she walked into my home like a Disney princess with treats, and suddenly our four under-3-year-old chaos gremlins sat, stayed, and fell in love. Let’s be honest: caring for ONE young dog is a workout. Caring for FOUR is an Olympic sport with a side of dog hair and dramatic zoomies. But Victoria? She didn’t just survive. She thrived. She’s basically the Mary Poppins of pet-sitting — if Mary Poppins wore sneakers and carried poop bags. She sent updates, cute pics, and managed to tire them out (which I thought was impossible). If you need someone who can handle high-energy, young pups like a dog-whispering superhero, Victoria D. is your gal. I am not saying she speaks fluent dog…but ive never seen this pack sit in formation like that before. - Grateful!

If you are looking for the perfect caretaker for your beloved pet, look no further than Victoria D. We had Victoria come to our home to feed, walk, and play with our family dog. We never worried about our dog when we were traveling, knowing that Victoria could be counted on to attend to our dog’s needs but also give him some loving while his family was away. Our dog loved Victoria and we feel he really was sad he didn’t get those visits from her once we returned home. We highly recommend Victoria as your pet’s caretaker.
