Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced and dependable care
I have years of experience taking care of a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, birds, turtles and fish. I gained this experience by working as a pet sitter for the past 15 years, volunteering with the humane society as well as having a wide variety of pets of my own. I even have experience taking care of wild and exotic animals by working and volunteering at wildlife rehabilitation centers and the Naples Zoo. Overall, big or small, old or young, high energy or relaxed, I will provide exceptional care to your pet. As an avid outdoors woman, I know tons of great pet-friendly trails and parks where (if desired) I can take your dog for an adventure. If you are looking for someone that will put your pet's needs first, treat them as their own and will always keep you updated, then you have found her. Additional references are available upon request.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I am house-sitting or just dropping-in, everything depends on the dog's routine and your preferences as the owner. During our meet-and-greet, I ask an in-depth questionnaire that helps me understand both you and your pets. This provides me with knowledge of your pet's background, personality, schedule, joys and fears. I also like to provide daily updates and photos. Your pet is my first priority! I endeavor to make their time with me as relaxed and enjoyable as possible so that you can focus on you.
Ratings and reviews
Vikki was great. Dependable, communicative and my pup actually ate, which shows how comfortable 'she' was. Vikki sent pics and overall a pleasure to have in my home.
Vikki was a life saver since we just moved to the area. She was prompt and very communicative. Definitely recommend!
Vikki is a great sitter. Took the time to really understand my dogs personalities and preferences. Vikki was always prompt with clear notes on each visit which was wonderful.
Ms Vikki is the ultimate pet sitter! She was with our pups the entire time, took them to the beach, played with them and sent us a multitude of pictures daily! In fact our Lucy was barking at us to take her out when Vikki did! I think they sorely miss her absence! She was respectful of our house took good care of our dogs we are so impressed that she is booked for the next trip already! She’s dependable and ready to help! Is
Vikki was easy to get to know and she helped us out when we were in a pinch. The dogs and cats all seemed happy and comfortable while we were gone. We have a dog who is sometimes slow to “like” people and he rapidly accepted Vikki during our meet and greet. Thank you Vikki.
Stellar service! Our gigi loves vikki. Great job! We will use her again and again.

- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsDogs over 1 year oldVikki can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- I don't have any breed preferences but I love to know about their personalities and medical histories. If you can provide any of the following information before agreeing to pet-sit, it would be appreciated: -prior injuries or medical procedures -triggers or anything else that may upset or frighten your dog -favorite things you do together, games, treats or toys -age -allergies There might be some beyond this, and any information that you feel is necessary to know is always welcome. I also insist on meeting with you and your dog before the official date of the job to ensure compatibility.
