Animal Loving Traveler

I was executive assistant to someone for 10 years and one of my most important roles during that time was caring for his dog, Cheyenne. He didn't trust anyone during his 16 years with her but he entrusted me with traveling across the country with her on a regular basis. I also had to cook every meal for her as she was on a very strict diet. I have always had animals and currently have one very sweet chocolate lab of my own named Roux Ga Roux (the Cajun swamp monster). I'm self employed so my schedule is flexible and I am out and about frequently. I can work from home most days so I could work from your home (as long as you have Wi Fi!). I would be giving your pets lots of love and attention. I'm respectful of rules you may have, such as no table food or must have lots of treats. :)

Virginia took amazing care of our dog Tana! She's a great communicator - she was prompt with responses, kept us updated with lots of photos, and welcomed any questions we had. She's organized and made sure that she had all of the information about Tana that she needed during the drop-off. As soon as Tana entered Virginia's beautiful yard and home, Tana seemed immediately comfortable, which was a big deal because Tana is generally pretty shy. We also felt very comfortable, as it was obvious that Virginia is a loving and caring person with dogs and people.

Virginia did a great job taking care of our elderly, blind, diabetic dog. She took care of our pup for 3 days with drop-in feedings, walks and hang outs. She is very dependable and our Hank loves her!!

Virginia was wonderful! Her big dog, Roux is a sweetheart and willingly shared his spot on the bed with our 4 year old mixed breed goofball. Our dog, JoeB was very happy and content to share time overnight with Virginia and Roux! Virginia sent lots of photos and videos which were really appreciated. She’s a great pup sitter👍

I'm self employed so my schedule is extremely flexible. I tend to work from home and I drive all around frequently so I'm usually pretty available.

Safety, trust & environment

I give walks around the neighborhood/property. Any animal I care for will receive lots of lovin. I’ll play fetch or run with more high energy dogs. I can also practice any training regime you might be working on with the dog.

If the dog is aggressive or does not like new people. Would also like to know what rules the dog has like no table food, not allowed on the couch, etc.
