Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog’s new favorite human 🐾
I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently care for four of my own. I’ve raised and trained young dogs, including potty training, cared for seniors through the end of their lives, and handled accidents and extra cleanup. I use gentle, positive training and understand how strongly dogs respond to our emotions.

Victoria also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Victoria is great with animals! I trust her completely with both of my dogs and they love her. She is very caring to my 17 year old princess and my younger lab just loves when she comes over to play. Highly recommend her for your pups as well.
Victoria, is an energetic woman who loves animals. I always feel safe leaving my baby (dog) with her knowing that she not only will walk, feed and keep your animal safe. Don’t be surprised to see her laying on the ground playing gently with multiple animals, like she is part of their pack.
Victoria has cared for both my dog and cat while my family was out of town, and she did an amazing job. My dog, Rousey, stayed at her home with her four dogs, and she was very attentive to how all of the dogs interacted. When she noticed that some of them weren’t getting along well with Rousey, she made sure they were fed and given water separately and kept them separated anytime she wasn’t there to supervise them. I really appreciated knowing that she was paying attention and making sure Rousey was safe and comfortable. My cat, Biggs, stayed at my house, and Victoria also made trips over to check on him, feed him, make sure he had fresh water, and spend some time with him. She sent me pictures and updates of both of my pets throughout the trip and even offered to clean Biggs’ litter box if he needed it. She went above and beyond what I asked of her, and it gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Victoria genuinely loves animals and is responsible, attentive, patient, and trustworthy. I never had to worry about whether my pets were being taken care of, and I would absolutely trust her with them again. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets with the same care and attention she gives her own.

Schedule
I work as a server only a few days a week, usually with shorter shifts, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available late nights, afternoons, evenings, and mornings. I can work around your pet’s normal routine. I’m happy to accommodate feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and whatever schedule your pet is used to.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have multiple dogs of my own, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities and energy levels. Before a stay, I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet to make sure everyone gets along. If needed, I can separate pets using different rooms or kennels, or keep them safely occupied. I also have extra leashes and collars in different sizes, as well as backup dog food, just in case. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, so outdoor time is always supervised and on-leash.
Pets
A typical day
The first thing we do when we wake up is our morning stretches the dogs love rolling around and getting petted, while my Fiancée and I try to do our stretches. Then we immediately go for a walk! We come inside and give them their morning supplements treat and crushed ice cubes. The rest of the day depends on our schedule, the weather and the dogs energy.
