Lover and advocate of all critters

Pet care experience

***Please read my availability below as I work full-time*** For as long as I’ve been alive my family has had pets including cats, dogs, rats, snakes, and tarantulas to name a few. During college I participated in internships and volunteer positions caring for birds of prey and different species of wildlife. I am a cat foster through a local rescue and currently have 5 rescue cats and 2 dogs. Ive also owned pet rats and Guinea pigs for 5 years so I have experience with pocket pet animals. Through one of my foster situations and caring for my own sick pets I am experienced in providing medication if required. I have also bottle raised kittens and cared for very Ill patients. In our neighborhood we have a close few of us that rotate taking care of each others animals when families go out of town as well.

Victoria was awesome with Buck and very flexible in house sitting while I was gone. I would happily recommend her to others.

I’ve known Victoria for over five years, and during that time, she has always had pets, including guinea pigs, rats, dogs, and cats. She is the most caring animal lover I’ve ever met. She will stop on the middle of a busy highway to rescue dogs and squirrels, and in March 2022 she became a foster mother to a Mama Cat and six kitties and then additional one kitty. (Ask her for the entire story!) She currently helps out those in her community by pet sitting as needed, and I would not trust anybody else in this world more than her to take care of my animals. I am pretty sure her phone photo album is 97% pictures of animals. Rest assured, if you use Victoria to watch your animals, they will be taken great care of, and loved on so very much.

Victoria is awesome! There's nobody in this world who loves and cares for animals more than Victoria. You can rest assured that your pets will be in safe, caring hands with Victoria. I wouldn't want to work with anyone else but her when it comes to the safety and security of my animals. Use her!

Please let me know if your animal is food aggressive or reactive. I have a dog with higher anxiety so I can adapt to it, I just need to know ahead of time.

A typical day

If your dog likes walks around the block I would love to be able to take them on a stroll! If they also enjoy stimulating food puzzles I can use that for them as well!
