Your dog or cat will have a new BFF

Pet care experience

I’ve been in Chicago for about 5 years now- contemplating getting my own pup later this year- but have missed being surrounded by animals back home in New Mexico. From my own dogs, Kaos, a Rottweiler and Buck, a Golden Retriever, I’ve been around and cared for dogs, cats, horses and cows my whole life. Since my move a few years ago, I’ve been missing the comfort and joy of being around animals and kidnap my friend’s dogs any chance I get! I have experience working with many different animals. I believe that each animal has its own personality and can be an extrovert or an introvert. They may need solitude or cuddles. Choosing me to watch over your them, you can rest easy that they are in good hands (I send tons of photos and videos). Currently, and for the foreseeable future, I’m working from home, Monday - Friday, 9-5:30. I look forward to meeting your fur baby soon!!

Took care of our old blind dog for 5 days. Very conscientious. Our house was well cared for. Happy to use again.

Victoria is amazing! She house sat for me and watched my cat while I was traveling for work. So communicative, sending updates and assuring me everything was great. Couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter, have booked her several more times this summer. Highly recommend!

Victoria did a fabulous job with our almost 17 years old Yorkie. I would hire her again in a second!

Safety, trust & environment

My appartment has a decent sized yard on the side for them to get some zoomies out. For walks, and/or off leash time in the park, I also have air tags for collars.

Information Victoria L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog can play with other dogs, takes any meds, or has any restrictions. Also, if they can be left alone, as I try to hit the gym in the mornings.

A typical day

I am a big walker and love to go on 3 mile walks in the morning, so short walks in the mid day/ afternoon, and another long walk in the evening. I am right across from Lincoln Park so there’s a lot of trails and pathways so that we can stay out of mud or grass so they can roll around in it. ?
