Pet care experience
Paw-fect Care for Your Furry Friend
In addition to my personal experience with dogs, I have worked as a dog sitter for numerous pet owners within my home community. Since the age of 13, I have been dog-sitting for friends, neighbors, and family members, ranging from Beagles, English Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Goldendoodles, Labradoodles, and plenty more breeds. These experiences have taught me how to handle dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Throughout my experience as a dogsitter and housesitter, family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets while away for family vacations, business trips, and quick day trips. In addition, as a loving owner of a Standard Poodle and a Boxer, I understand how crucial for dogs to get regular exercise and socialization to maintain their physical and mental health. With this, I am active and energetic and enjoy engaging in dogs' physical and mental stimulation through walks and playtime. Also, I am responsible and reliable and have a flexible schedule to accommodate your needs.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Caring for pets in a client's home requires high responsibility and trustworthiness. With this, I am intentional about the pet owner's instructions and preferences about their pet and home. Before pet sitting, I like to ensure that I can adequately meet the pet owner's expectations and fulfill the pet's needs, such as sustaining routine, understanding their diet, and any other essential details that would assist in properly caring for one's pet. Alongside this, keeping the owner informed of their pet's well-being has always been crucial. I strive to share photos or videos of the pets throughout our time together. Nevertheless, I will communicate through a call or text to ensure everything is going well.
Ratings and reviews
This review is based off the agreement that we had set up before agreeing to select the person for service. The Rover employee failed to complete the necessary request made by the homeowner. Which was to stay the night both nights. The Rover employee stayed one night and did not stay the second night. My home was alerted that she did not stay the night the second night and arrived at 522 the following morning to let the dogs out to potty. She then left 17 minutes later. My dog had to stay in a kennel for 9hrs. When I was alerted at 5:22am, woken up wonder why is the sitter coming to the house at that time, when I thought she was there that evening/ night. I had to go back and look at the activity log. Again, I asked at the meet and greet if she could stay at night at my home, 2 nights and she agreed. Nothing worse than being startled at 5:22am wondering who’s at your front door, and it’s the Rover employee coming to care for your pets, and thinking why is she coming in at 5:22am.? She wasn’t there that night?. If there was an issue a text, or a call could have been made. I would have understood. Zero pictures that she said she would send, and no courtesy update on how the dogs were. I will not use this app. Again. Can’t depend on people.
Victoria was so kind to stop by last minute and check in on my dogs. She was amazing with them! Will definitely reach out to her for future visits.
Victoria did amazing with our dogs! They had never stay with anyone except family and they loved her! She stayed at our house with our dogs while we were out of state for 8 days and all went really well! She sent pictures to reassure us and loved on our dogs just like family! We will definitely use her again! Plus she is a kind sweet young lady too!
Victoria was absolutely amazing! A major thing for me is how Clover reacts with other people and Victoria immediately offered to do a meet and greet! As a pet parent I get anxious leaving my little girl with someone new, but Victoria was amazing in sending updates and tons of pictures! Not to mention my home was left in amazing condition! I will definitely be using Victoria again for any house sitting needs! Thank you!
Victoria is AMAZING! I have a 4 month old puppy and an unexpected trip. I was nervous about having someone take care of my little one, but Victoria eased my nerves, was upfront and honest, asked questions and seemed to enjoy her time with my pup! I came back to a clean apartment and a happy puppy! She went above and beyond. Definitely will be utilizing her services again! I recommend if you want someone who is truly in it for the animals :)
Victoria was an excellent dog walker! Communicative and punctual. Would absolutely use her again!

Schedule
Understanding that you and your pet have instilled routines, it is my priority to ensure that I fulfill the needs of the owner and the pet to promote feelings of normativity for one's dog even while the owner is away. Therefore, I am available early on weekdays in the morning, late afternoons, evenings, and nights, with a wide array of flexibility for the weekends.

- Before caring for your dog, I’d love to know their daily routine, energy level, and favorite activities. Are there specific commands they follow or treats they love? Please let me know about any medical needs, dietary restrictions, or behavioral quirks (e.g., leash reactivity, separation anxiety, or shyness) so I can provide the best care. The more I know, the more comfortable and happy your pup will be!
