Your Dog's *Second* Favorite Human!

I have been dog obsessed for as long as I can remember. I recently lost my beloved 15 year old beagle and am really missing the presence of a pup. As I'm not ready to commit to another little pup full time yet, this is the perfect way to get my dog fix for now! I have cared for dogs of all ages (I love a frosted face senior pup!!) and am comfortable with all breeds. I am in the medical field and in the last several years of my dog's life, I had to administer medications, so I am also very comfortable with that. I welcome ALL details about your pet and will adhere to any guidelines you set...I know how anxiety inducing it can be to leave your family member with another person! Get ready for plenty of photos and updates as well (if you want that!)

Victoria was terrific. She took Sophie on a walk and fed her. She kept us up to date with texts and pictures. We would definitely use her services again when available.

Victoria was so good with our dog and our puppy! She sent tons of pictures and treated both like they were her own. I would definitely trust her with our dogs any time!

Victoria is a very trusted and responsible pet caregiver! She took care of our older family beagle with utmost care and concern for her health and safety. She is beyond reproach and we were not concerned at any time when our beloved dog was in her company. We highly endorse her loving treatment of pets!

If you're scrolling through profiles trying to figure out who you can actually trust with your dog, stop here. Victoria is it! She recently had to say goodbye to her beloved pup, Fanny, after nearly 15 amazing years together. That dog was everything to her. The kind of love and care she gave Fanny is exactly what she brings to every animal she meets. I’ve known Victoria for over 30 years. She's warm, responsible, super trustworthy, and loves animals more than anyone I know. (Even me! 😉) She won't just show up and walk your dog. She'll notice their little habits, send you sweet updates, and make sure they feel completely safe and cared for. She's the kind of person who shows up early, brings extra treats, and makes your pet feel like a VIP. There are a lot of dog walkers out there, but Victoria is someone who'll treat your dog like her own. I can't recommend her enough! <3

Victoria cared for my dog, fell in love and adopted her! I was fortunate to continue to see “my” dog when travels took Victoria out of town over the past decade. As the dog aged she received tender loving care and medications per veteran instructions. Victoria is a medical professional who is sensitive to the needs of humans as well as pets. Much of her work is now via tele conferencing from home which is conducive to pet sitting and providing your dog with TLC.

Safety, trust & environment

If your pup likes cuddles, fetch, checking their "pee mail" around the neighborhood or playing with toys, we can do it all! I love to provide physical and mental exercises for them.

Please let me know if your dog has any special quirks or needs ahead of time. I like to know where they feel safest (in a crate? With a special toy or blanket?) Do they like special treats etc!
