Experienced Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I have worked with dogs all shapes, sizes, ages, ability, and energy levels! I have experience with over 5 dogs with pretty severe anxiety, and even fostered a dog found on the streets of Puerto Rico that had extreme anxiety to people, and separation anxiety. She was with us for around 6 months, and by the time she left she was a completely different dog, she was still unsure, but she wouldn’t run and hide when anyone entered a room. When doing introductions I like to toss/hand them treats, do not look directly into their eyes, and allow them to approach and sniff me. I also have experience in the past living with two dogs with epilepsy. They require oral pill medication, and liquid medication, so I have experience in both of those fields as well. I also have an extremely high energy husky mix, so I am used to giving dogs the exercise they need! I have experience with dog training as well. I am an apprentice dog trainer, and have trained a service dog in the past. I know basic training, some fear training/exposure, and leash training so a dog is not pulling. Please let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to hearing from you!

Victoria took very good care of our pup. We were away for a couple of days and struggled finding a sitter that was available for that weekend. Luckily we came across Victoria! We can not say enough good things about her! We definitely will be using her again in the future! Thank you Victoria, we appreciate you!

Victoria truly put me at ease for the first time leaving my boys in my apartment. She came early to meet them and get acquainted to the space. She provided amazing daily check-ins and pictures that put a smile on my face every day. I trust her with my boys and will be for sure rebooking for future trips!

Victoria did a great job with our cats. We came home to happy cats with clean boxes!

Victoria watched our dogs from a Friday-Sunday. She was great about giving updates and very patient with our reactive dogs. Very kind, polite, punctual, and knowledgeable

Information Victoria S. would like to know about your pet

Size, age, and if they are dog, cat and human-friendly. That way I will know who to avoid on outings. What their typical eating, potty, and exercising schedule is. Do they take any medications, have any special needs, or anxiety? How do you typically introduce new people to your animals?

A typical day

We will walk around the neighborhood, go to parks, and just explore the area. We can play fetch, tug, do dog puzzles, and go on trails! Training is also fun for many dogs!
