Availability

I am currently part-time, so I have availability during days, evenings, and weekends. I am home often and use my personal car and city transport to get around. I love animals and spending time with them. If your dog needs a longer walk, I will not shy away. Please note- I rarely accept requests that require me to sleep overnight. I am happy to stay late and return early but I am more comfortable sleeping in my own home

Safety, trust & environment

I provide individualized and gentle care to animals! I have catered to several animals with rare, chronic disorders and provide them with the same quality of care as their families do. I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving pets at home, and I make it my mission to make sure your animals are comfortable so you can enjoy your day with peace of mind. If boarding at my house, I make sure the pet has everything it needs and I create the most stress-free environment possible. If housesitting, I make sure your house is as clean as when you left. if your pet needs to go out 5-10 times a day, I will accommodate.

Information Victoria E. would like to know about your pet

I am curious about diet, behavior, and boundaries of your pet with new people! I will also need to know about any medical needs, medications, and routines to be aware of.

A typical day

There is a variety of parks and dog parks near me! I also have a fenced in yard perfect for 1:1 play. I am active and love to keep your pet moving.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Victoria and I am a child therapist! I have 20+ personal and professional experience with dogs, cats, and other critters. I can work with special needs pets as well. I love animals and I am very comfortable meeting new pets. I understand all pets have different needs and boundaries and I am willing and excited to learn more about what makes your pet special! I tend to build a bond with animals very quickly and have been a requested caretaker for years from family, friends, and neighbors. I offer walking, boarding, drop-ins, and any other pet care service needed. I am open to cats and dogs of any breed! If you have additional animals that need to be cared for (fish, reptiles, gerbils, small mammals, and birds) I can care for them too!

Victoria was great! Very attentive and communicative. I could tell my cat was at ease with her when I started getting photos of him on her lap! Such a relief knowing I was coming home to a happy, healthy guy.
