As a dog owner, the hardest part for me was having a safe space for my pup to be at while I was out at work. Knowing the kind of stress it has on others who are in this position, inspired me to offer my services in the hopes of giving peace of mind to fellow dog owners! I am a full-time dog Mom and part-time dog sitter. As long as there isn't severe, inclement weather (heavy rain, powerful wind gusts, freezing temperatures, etc), there isn't a day that a trip or 2 to the dog park across the street doesn't happen! Currently, I offer daycare and boarding services.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 3 year old, neutered pup by the name of Apollo. He's house trained, crate trained, and is trained to be off-leash. He loves meeting new buddies and is very playful. I live in a pre-war apartment building . It's a big enough space for the pups to run around safely in. I also own a large, wire crate, if necessary for your pup or if light crate training is requested. Across the street is a massive park that has it's own designated Dog Park and lots of dogs to play with! If there's any restrictions or guidelines you need followed for your pup(s), please let me know so I can plan accordingly! Please be advised, I do *not* administer medications intravenously (via needle). Oral or topical medications only.

Information Victoria R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I need to account for. As many details as you can provide in advance to ensure I'm caring for your pup just as you would.

A typical day

Pets in my care receive a daily (1-3 times) 30-45 mins playtime at the dog run in the park across the street. At home, the pups have the opportunity to run and play with my dog Apollo, keeping them engaged and socialized. I also engage in training opportunities via treats and games to keep all pups mentally stimulated. There is also plenty of space for pups who may want less engagement and more nap time!

Pet care experience

If you've got a last minute game or event at Yankee Stadium, or business at the nearby courthouses, I'm your girl for watching your pup! I offer basic house training such as: basic commands (sit, lay, stop/wait, excuse me, move back/back up, etc,) and waiting/patience etiquette for snacks (some pups are so excited they jump for treats!) My goal is to keep your pup(s) safe, happy, entertained, and solidify their home training.

Victoria is the best. Responsive, understanding, patient and a dog-lover. So grateful for how she takes care of and looks after my baby girl.

I highly recommend Victoria! She provided fantastic overnight care for our Luna while we were away for an entire week. Victoria communication was excellent from the very first inquiry.

Victoria’s home is a place where I know my doggie will be well loved and cared for. She understands dogs well and is very attentive to their personalities and needs. Enelle blended seamlessly into the household with Apollo who’s a big, gentle love. With frequent pictures of walks in the park, playtime and relaxing time, though I missed my doggie but I never worried about her. Will definitely ask Victoria to board again.

Victoria did a great job caring for Dumbledore and kept us informed about how he was doing through texts and pictures.
