Availability

Availability: I can do overnight and daytime, just let me know what feeding and walking schedule is typical for your family. My calendar availability is currently updated through April 2026. I highly recommend families to explore meeting several potential overnight sitters 3 months in advance if the dates are at all near a holiday. This helps ensure a good fit during the high demand holiday season.

Safety, trust & environment

Environment: My husband and I recently moved into a fixer-upper house and it's chaotic to say the least. We have projects like plumbing and door installation constantly. Thank you for allowing me in your home since my home is currently not ready for fur babies. On that note this is your gentle reminder before you head out, please double check to place any hazards your pet may accidentally get into out of your pet’s reach. Thank you!

Information Victoria H. would like to know about your pet

Happy with any breed! Would like to know your house rules, vet information, secondary emergency contact, commands, feeding and bathroom schedule, aggression or fear triggers, walking style, and health concerns. If your family has any unique medical needs such as medication or unique diet, notes from you are a good start. However I may want to see it in person before services or call you in the moment before administering to triple check accuracy. We can schedule this in advance. Also, if you have a bark detection device, please tell me. It helps me know I’m not hearing voices (haha, it has happened!). Thank you for trusting me with your precious little one. I will honor that trust. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! 🙂

A typical day

Routine: I know change can be stressful for any fur baby, so I prefer to keep their routines and schedules consistent while you are away. I love finding their favorite activities to keep their happy hormones flowing and make the adjustment just a little easier for them. Let me know any training goals your family is working on. I’ll help reinforce them for better generalization across people and environments.

Pet care experience

Hey there friend! About Me: I moved here from Georgia to live with my husband. I joined Rover to develop a new client base in this beautiful thriving city. I will answer every message I receive in 24 hours or less. Formal Education: I have 5 years of experience as an emergency responder and 2 years as a safety manager. I act calmly and quickly when it counts. I also have 5 years of experience in behavior psychology with kiddos on the autism spectrum, and hold a a BS in Psychology. I am currently pursuing my Masters in Occupational Therapy to help individuals accomplish daily tasks. During overnight visits, I will probably be studying on the couch with my computer between walks and feeding times. Experience with Sitting: Happy to help with dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and other animals. I am familiar with pets who have unique needs such as deafness, tube feeding, wound care, separation anxiety, leash training, injury recovery, and strict medication/feeding schedules. I am known for detailed updates that I believe matter: water consumption, appetite, preferred toy, BM consistency, reactions to noise, and progress with commands (like responding 4 out of 5 times to “leave it”). Open Communication Policy: You can expect professionalism, respect, and candid open communication in all interactions. I value the same in return. I like to do a phone call or meet and greet ASAP to ensure we are on the same page. My allergist informed me that they have never met anyone as allergic to dust mites as I am, so thank you for clean sheets for overnight stays. Heads up on Price: Prices may change depending on what specific sitting services your family may need. Some specific examples from past clients include living 32 miles away from me (Pflugerville/Round Rock area), staying a full 23 out of 24 hours per day in the home, and high demand holiday bookings like Christmas Day.

Victoria did a great job with my two boys. Her communication each day was amazing making me feel comfortable when away from my dogs and home.

Victoria has walked our dog many times and always does a great job. She’s reliable, kind, and our pup is always excited to see her. Highly recommend!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
