It’s like a visit from grandma!

Pet care experience

I have had animals ever since I was a child ranging from dogs, cats, reptiles, ferrets, hamsters, and fish. I have always been an animal lover but I truly have a special connection with dogs. There is a reason dog spelled backwards is god! For the past year I did in home boarding at my home in Fairfax. I took care of dogs of all ages and sizes ranging from 6 pounds to 50 pounds, ages 9 months to 17 years old. I can also administer meds.

I highly recommend Victoria. She took wonderful care of my girls while we were gone for Christmas. She sent regular updates and pictures. I felt so comfortable leaving them in her care. Than you, Victoria.

Victoria was fantastic! She was able to do a drop in visit last minute. I have her booked again for a long weekend next month and I know my dog will be in great hands.

We had an awesome experience with Victoria over the Thanksgiving holiday. We asked her to come 3 times a day for walks and she was prompt and gave our doggo thorough walks. She even found some time to give him safe off leash time!! We loved that. I would highly recommend Victoria and we already have dates booked for our next care with her.
