Highlights
Pet care experience
Confident companion
I adore animals and their unique personalities! Pet owner my whole life but responsible for a pet directly for 18years+. American Red Cross Cat & Dog First Aid certified (can provide certificate upon request). Dog walker in college and medical school - small and large, rambunctious and docile, puppies and elders. Experienced with puppies (8 weeks) and geriatric (12-18yr) dogs. Experienced with all sizes. Note: NOT experienced with animals in heat or pregnant. Comfortable with bathing, walking, playing, feeding, medicating, and some discord/emergencies (have broken up fights, doggy Heimlich). I am not comfortable with aggressive dogs in public but at my discretion happy to care for them in your home/backyard etc). I am less experienced with cats but have grown to love them. I’ve been responsible for adult cats and weaned kittens. Not familiar with more trendy/niche breeds eg Bengals with specific needs; happy to learn and follow direction but please be aware my experience with cats is less than dogs. Happy to be a companion for your beloved pet! Of note: - Meet and greet for house stays strongly preferred. I want to know your pet(s) environments and needs! I also want to make sure our expectations during a house & pet sit are compatible! I want you to know who’s caring for your animals! - Details of pet(s) routines, likes & dislikes, and any special needs strongly preferred - ideally a list. What time do they eat? Favorite snack? Medication schedule? Triggers? Hates x etc… I want them and you to be as comfortable as possible, and me to be as equipped as possible. - I’d promise to abide by your home rules and care for your pet, send photo/video updates, be contactable, and notify you immediately in case of (God forbid) an emergency. I would expect that you are also reasonably contactable and open to questions / concerns. Thanks so much for trusting me with your pets. Mine have given me such joy, and I relish the opportunity to help you keep your animals safe, comfortable, and happy! Go rove! I got this :)

Safety, trust & environment
I’m - usually - unable to pet sit in my home. If I know a pet very well and they’re low maintenance (eg quiet, elderly, low energy) I would be happy to potentially board them; however, this is subject to my personal discretion due to an ill family member in my home. I’m happy to discuss if we have an established relationship. In a clients home I would obviously adjust to your needs: pets’ schedule, walks, play, etc would be adhered to! I’m happy to stay in the home or visit to care for the pet; I’m physically fit and love walks and play. I would not bring any other people/pets into the home, I do not smoke, and I have no criminal history. I just graduated medical school and am studying for the US medical licensing exams. I very much look forward to pet sitting with love and care. Thank you!
Ratings and reviews
She’s the best !
If you are looking for a pet sitter who is loving, caring, and professional, Victoria is the one! She stayed at our house and took such great care of our fur babies. She communicated with us and sent us pictures throughout our time away. I cannot thank her enough for all that she did. I highly recommend her!
Victoria was great! Very communicative and really listened to the details regarding our needy dogs! It was a huge relief being out of town and finally not having to worry about them, plus it seems our dogs loved having her around! Definitely would recommend her!
Thank you so much for always being so sweet to Henny and sending me lots of pictures !!
Victoria did a great job with my Henny , she communicated and sent pictures of her the whole entire time I was very grateful, it’s always hard to leave your pets behind so it feels good to know that they’re well taken care of . Thank you so much for being so sweet !
Victoria was the best!!!!! Our babies were sooo happy, they told us to go back on vacation so they could hang with their new pal! Victoria sent lots of updates and the house was in great condition when we got back, we will absolutely book Victoria again!

Schedule
I’m extremely flexible. I’m studying full time for an exam. I nanny at my discretion (would rather pet sit to be frank!). So early, late, all day, overnight, drop-in, weekends, holidays - not an issue! For house sits I would strongly prefer a meet and greet (even brief) to make sure we’re all on the same page!
