Reliable Love & Care for Your Baby

Pet care experience

Hey there! My name is Vilma. Growing up I had all different types of animals, from turtles and fish, to rodents and dogs, I love all animals! I currently own a ‘Chorkie’ dog that I’ve had since he was 5 months old, now a senior, named Alvin and a 1 year old tabby cat named, Olive. They’re 60% of my camera roll and a guarantee to be brought up at least once. The most therapeutic and fulfilling part of my days are when they’re spent with my pets, so much that I became a dog walker full time. Dog walking has given me the discipline in care and responsibility required when caring for other dogs. Having pets of my own, I understand the care and patience that must be given. Becoming a dog sitter, I’ll be able to reciprocate the love I have for my own onto yours. I recognize that each dog has their own personality and will require a different approach. Much like my own experiences, I would never want anyone incompetent of handling my dog, that is why I am very keen to give the best care I could give to every dog I meet. My home is 100% pet friendly, which means there are no restrictions, making it a comfortable environment for your dog to feel at home. I also have a large fenced backyard for your dog to get their playtime and energy out. I read animal behavior well and train as I go. If given the chance, I can’t wait to meet your best friend!

Vilma is not only a great caregiver to the pets in her care, she goes above and beyond. My dog Odie gets super excited when Vilma picks him up for doggie day care and I feel a lot less stressed knowing he is in good hands.

I’ve known Vilma for a little over six years now and you’ll know just by how she cares for her own pets, how amazing she is with animals. I cannot think of anyone who would be most suitable for taking care of someone else’s pet more than her. Vilma has the enthusiasm and personality for any task. She feeds the stray cats in her neighborhood and even took in a stray one winter when he was found hiding in her stairwell outside. Funny enough, she’s constantly sending me silly videos of cats and dogs she follows on Instagram. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, reliable, loving sitter who isn’t just looking out for her own interests, choose her! You won’t regret it.

Information Vilma F. would like to know about your pet

1. Has your dog ever been watched by a stranger? If so, how did they react? 2. Does your dog have separation anxiety? 3. Does your dog have any behavioral problems such as biting, growling or barking at children/ adults? 4. Does your dog have any triggers that may lead to aggression or fear? 5. How is your dog with other cats and dogs? 6. Is your dog potty trained? 7. Are there any restrictions or allergies they have for food? Please be honest for your dog and everyone’s safety.

A typical day

Every dog is different, and depending on your dog’s personality and preferences, they’ll be treated accordingly. If they’re the energetic kind, they’ll be given a lengthy walk and be taken to a gated park and come back to my home to play fetch. If they’re the moderately low energy, not good with other dogs/ people they’ll be taken on a small walk and be played with in the backyard or indoors, they’ll be given plenty of belly rubs! I also realize this weather can make any dog not want to be outdoors, so they’re given the option to use the kiddie pool outside!
