Research tech, animal caretaker

Pet care experience

I became the trusted pet-sitter in college for my friends due to my interest in veterinary medicine and my experience with all kinds of pets. I've worked with all types of animals big and small from 2000lbs cattle to tiny mice. I have watched all sorts of pets from cats, young dogs to senior dogs, including a service dog in training! I have shadowed a number of vets and volunteered at vaccine clinics which gave me animal handling experience as well as taught me how to give oral and injected medications.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very active so I'm happy to wear out dogs on long walks if they don't have a yard and need a lot of exercise! I love to hangout with animals so I'm happy to cater to your animal's needs. I am always very attentive to pets energy levels and demeanor to ensure their stress is reduce while you are away.

Information Victoria D. would like to know about your pet

I think it's critical to know how social the animal is and their energy requirements. I think having this information allows for the pet sitter to come in with the right mindset to be able to give your animal what they need while you're away. It helps maintain their routine for their mental and physical health.

A typical day

Animals need mental and physically exercise just like humans do! I love to exercise dogs and take them for walks especially while the weather is still nice. I also love to play with them and keep them company while they nap after all of our fun activities.
