Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & reliable pet lover 🐾
Since I can remember I was always a pet lover. I have experience walking varying breeds from small mixed breeds to husky’s, as well as cat sitting. Four years ago I got an Australian Shepard, she is a ball of energy in my life. I have experience with energetic and anxious animals. I only walk one dog at a time, unless you book a walk for multiple dogs. Please message me any questions. *A free 15-minute meet and greet is required for all services. This quick intro is the perfect opportunity for me to understand your pet's personality and for them to get comfortable with me, ensuring a smooth, happy first visit.* ***AVAILABILITY*** *Mon, Wed, Thurs, Fri 8am till late evening *Tues 8am-3pm *Weekends vary due to school and racing (please reach out for weekends, I am happy to accommodate your and your pets needs, calendar is updated daily)

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is a top priority for me, I care for each pet like they're my own! I only walk one dog booking at a time, no pack walks or dog parks. I follow any guidelines and preferences provided, I only give treats which are approved and as directed. Each visit has at least one photo included. For Dogs, I love to play with them and promise they will get much love, attention, and pets. For walks I can use a preferred route, try to stay in the shade during the summer, and avoid dog parks for safety reasons. For Cats, I will adapt to what the cat prefers. If they need time to warm up to me, I will give them the time and space needed, I will gladly play with them, pet them, or if they just want to do their own cat-things I will supervise them. At the end of the visit I usually leave the tv running on a sleep timer for background noise and visual stimulation. *I like to have a meet and greet before the first visit
Ratings and reviews
Victoria was a great drop in sitter for my cat! Victoria is very easy to communicate with, both over messaging and on the phone. I knew my cat would be in good hands while I was away. Victoria provided details updates and photos during the visit. I’d rebook with Victoria in the future!
Victoria is fantastic!! She gave great updates, sent the best pictures, and made sure my fur baby was well cared for! Highly recommend her!!
Victoria was sweet with my dog and sent me a good write up and photos after the walk and even flagged a potential issue with Birdie’s poo! There were some extenuating circumstances that led to her walk starting 1.5 hours after the scheduled time. I completely understand the unexpected can happen, but there was also a bit of a communication miss and I didn’t feel as aware of the situation as I wanted to. She did own it and I fully expect this was a fluke so would otherwise hire Victoria again. This was a good reminder on my end to also not wait so long before following up if something seems amiss. Communication is key!
It is clear that Victoria is a true animal lover by everything she does during her visits! She plays with my kitties, leaves the TV on an automatic timer for them, washes out and refills their water fountain every visit on top of the standard cleaning of the litter box and feeding. It is so appreciated!
Victoria was incredible. She took care of my dog perfectly and she was very attentive to instructions. She takes great photos for me every time and my dog loves her.
Victoria watched my cats over the weekend and was amazing!! Very caring, communicative, and respectful. Also left my place extremely clean and made sure to wash their food bowls before leaving. Would definitely recommend her!
