Highlights
Pet care experience
Nurturing, calm & attentive care
I’m a reliable, detail-oriented sitter who prioritizes routine, safety, and clear communication. I live in SOMA with my 2-year-old Shiba, one of the most stubborn and independent dog breeds, which has given me hands-on experience with patience, training, and socialization.
Cat care experience
Victoria & Eric also care for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Ratings and reviews
Victoria is amazing! Super detailed oriented. I appreciate and trust her. :)
Victoria was great with my dog Biscuit! Booked Victoria for both daycare and boarding. She sent many pictures of him and gave updates throughout the stay of activities that she did with him. Looked like he had a great time during his pawcation with Victoria. Was communicative when he had loose stool and how he ate. Was very accommodating with Biscuit wanting to play all the time.
Victoria and Eric were fantastic! They regularly updated me with photos and videos showing how well my cats were enjoying their time with them. My cats had a wonderful experience and truly didn't want to leave! I wholeheartedly recommend them!
Victoria is amazing! She took care of Bear for ~10 days and kept me updated with all the fun doggy dates each and every day. She made my vacation truly worry free. After picking up Bear kept looking behind for Victoria since we were leaving her. He loves her and I can see it. Definitely booking her again for my next vacation in November!
Victoria and Eric were amazing with Matilda. She came home nice and tired after spending 3 nights. Victoria sent us pics and videos showing all the fun Matilda had. I highly recommend them!!
Victoria took great care of Malka and sent great updates! She came home super happy and tired, thanks Victoria!

Schedule
Pet care is built directly into my daily routine so each dog gets consistent attention and structure throughout the day. Mornings start with a backyard potty break followed by breakfast according to your specific feeding instructions and schedule. Fresh water is always available. Dogs receive 2 walks daily up to 30 minutes each, or another approved variation totaling up to 1 hour of walk time per day depending on your preferences, the length of your dog’s stay for the day, and your dog’s energy level. In between walks, the day includes supervised indoor time, enrichment, play, rest, and additional potty breaks as needed.

A typical day
I love keeping pups active and happy with daily walks, fun games like fetch or tug-of-war, puzzle toys for mental stimulation, and cozy cuddle time. When allowed, we’ll enjoy trips to the dog park for safe socialization, new smells, and plenty of tail wags. I always follow each dog’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and at home. Basic care is always included and covers feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. Other services like grooming, teeth brushing, and providing freshly cooked meals are available for an extra fee. I follow a consistent routine to help dogs feel secure and settled during their stay. Dog park visits are not part of the default routine. I’m happy to consider dog park trips upon request, but we’ll first discuss your dog’s behavior, play style, recall, and comfort level around other dogs to make sure the experience is safe and appropriate for everyone.
