Furry friends home away from home!

Pet care experience

With over 25 years of dedicated experience in pet care, you can trust that your furry companions are in expert hands. My journey in pet care began with personal pet ownership, instilling a deep understanding of the unique needs and personalities of animals. Throughout the years, I've extended my care beyond my own pets, providing attentive and compassionate care for friends and family members' beloved animals. This breadth of experience has honed my skills in handling various breeds, temperaments, and special requirements, ensuring top-notch care for every furry friend. Beyond personal and familial pet care, I've actively contributed to the welfare of animals through shelter volunteer work. This invaluable experience has allowed me to witness firsthand the importance of love, patience, and consistency in helping shelter animals thrive. Additionally, my involvement in foster care programs has provided temporary homes and nurturing environments for shelter animals awaiting their forever families. This hands-on experience has deepened my empathy and understanding of the emotional and physical needs of animals in transition, further enhancing my ability to provide reliable and compassionate pet care. When you entrust your pets to my care, you can rest assured that they will receive the same level of love, attention, and respect as if they were my own. With a rich tapestry of experience spanning personal pet ownership, care for friends and family pets, shelter volunteer work, and foster care, I am dedicated to providing trustworthy pet care tailored to the individual needs of each furry friend. Your pets' well-being and happiness are my top priorities, and I am committed to ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and cherished every step of the way.

She's become like family to us and to our pets too! If you want someone who'll care for your fur babies as if they were their own, Victoria's your go-to gal. Trust me; you won't be disappointed!

Victoria went above and beyond taking care of our furry friend while we were out of town. Not only did she handle the walks with care and attention, but she also made sure our dog felt loved and comfortable in our absence. Her reliability and dedication truly gave us peace of mind. We highly recommend Victoria's services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Safety, trust & environment

Living in an apartment on the third floor may lack a traditional yard space, but it presents unique opportunities for engaging outdoor experiences with the pets in my care. Fortunately, my location offers easy access to nearby walking trails and expansive parks, providing endless opportunities for exploration and exercise. Whether it's a leisurely stroll along tree-lined paths or an invigorating hike through nature, I ensure that every furry friend gets the outdoor stimulation they need to stay happy and healthy. These nearby amenities not only offer ample space for dogs to stretch their legs and burn off energy but also provide enriching sensory experiences that stimulate their minds and senses. Despite the absence of a yard, my apartment becomes a cozy and welcoming haven for pets to relax and unwind after their outdoor adventures. With plenty of space for lounging, playing, and cuddling up, my home offers a comfortable retreat where pets can feel safe and secure. From sunny spots by the window for basking in natural light to cozy corners for snuggling up with plush blankets, I strive to create a nurturing environment that meets the diverse needs and preferences of every pet under my care.

Information Victoria L. would like to know about your pet

Before beginning pet care services, I prioritize understanding and addressing any health requirements or special needs that the animals may have. Whether it's administering medication, adhering to dietary restrictions, or accommodating mobility challenges, I take the time to discuss and document each pet's specific needs with their owner. Clear communication and collaboration ensure that I am well-prepared to provide the necessary care and support to maintain the health and well-being of every furry friend entrusted to me. Additionally, I remain vigilant for any signs of discomfort or changes in behavior, promptly addressing any concerns and seeking veterinary guidance when necessary to ensure the highest standard of care for the animals in my charge.

A typical day

A typical day of caring for and having fun with the animals under my watchful eye begins with a leisurely morning stroll through the nearby parks and walking trails. As we soak in the sights and sounds of nature, I engage the dogs in playful games of fetch and spontaneous bursts of excitement as they explore their surroundings. Back at home, I ensure each pet's individual needs are met, whether it's a nutritious breakfast for the furry friends or a cozy spot for the cats to curl up and watch the world go by. Throughout the day, we embark on various adventures, from interactive toy sessions and stimulating puzzle games to relaxing cuddle sessions and gentle grooming sessions. Whether it's a romp in the park, a training session to sharpen their skills, or simply lounging together in the comfort of home, every moment is filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories shared with the pets I am privileged to care for.
