Your Dog Is Safe with Me

Pet care experience

I genuinely love all animals. I have 4 loving dogs and 2 spoiled cats at home. I am an experienced pet owner/ foster/ caretaker. I started dog-sitting part-time in 2018 and now it is a full-time business. My guests have all my attention they need. I keep them safe, busy and happy. I treat your pet just like I treat my own: hugs, belly rubs and treats. I have a comfortable house with a secure fenced yard and open space inside. I never leave dogs outside unattended. I am experienced with very senior dogs or dogs who need special diet, medication or other restrictions. I will send you twice daily video updates, for your peace of mind.

Victoria was wonderful with our old guy. Very patient and helpful with his mobility issues, etc. she kept us informed about his well-being and sent lovely videos. Great experience.

Victoria has such a great personality. As soon as my dogs met her, both of them liked her immediately. She provides daily summaries and videos/pictures of our fur babies. She gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation. Very accommodating as well. Thank you so much, Victoria! Highly recommend her!

Our dog Woody had a great stay with Victoria. It was our first time leaving him and we loved seeing the videos of him that she sent twice a day. She was easy to communicate with and very responsive to any questions. He came home happy and tired from playing with all of his friends.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not take aggressive, reactive, extreemely anxious dogs. Guests must be current on flea and tick preventative. Very young dogs must be current on vaccines. Please house-trained dogs only. I do not take untrained puppies. Occasionall accidents are ok if, for example, a young dog is almost trained or if a dog is older. Crate-trained dogs only. Although most of the time my guests are free in the house, I prepare an individual clean and cozy crate and a clean blanket for each guest, so that they have time to relax, sleep and time-out in the private space. They also eat in their crates to prevent resource guarding. Water is refilled multiple times a day. All dishes are washed after each meal.

Information Victoria K. would like to know about your pet

I want to know as much as possible: if your dog is a barker, house trained or may have accidents, food aggression, allergies, medication, etc.

A typical day

The schedule in my house is probably the same as in your house. We wake-up at 7am, go potty, have breakfast, go outside again. After that we play or simply hang-out all together. There is plenty of outside time. Dinner is served around 7pm. Bed time 9:30-10pm.
