Pet care experience

Patient, Compassionate Animal Lover

I will love and care for your pets like they are my own. My passion is working with animals, I get so much joy seeing them happy and well taken care of. I have eight years experience volunteering for a no kill animal shelter where I worked 1-5 days a week. I was in charge of medicine, cleaning, day to day activities, dog walking, lead duty, and adopting animals out to loving homes. I served as kennel coordinater and four years as the Vice President on their Board of Directors. Animals cared for include cats and dogs of all ages. I have three senior dogs myself. One has degenerative spine disease, another has arthritis, and my other one has a collapsing trachea. My elderly cat has an autoimmune disorder and a heart murmur. Each get medication every day. I am very used to taking care of those that have special needs and accomidations. I have cared for animals that have had to have diabetic insulin shots, post surgery care, and daily medication. I have a history of working well and gaining the trust of animals that are shy, past neglected, and have an anxious personality type. I am very patient and slow, allowing me to gain their trust. In the past eleven years I have cared for new born puppies/kitties to animals that are close to their twenties. I treat them all the same, with all the love and affection they deserve. I would be more than happy to care for your babies while you are away. I have been pet sitting in people's homes, dog walking, and cat sitting for the past eleven years now.

Safety, trust & environment

My husband and I are moving into a house that will have a fenced in yard. I will be able to offer a boarding service when we are all set up there. As for my services, I am able to adjust to your schedule whether it is letting your dogs out in the backyard or walking them around the neighborhood. I like them to be able to keep their schedule and I am happy to discuss any adjustments you need me to make while caring for your little ones. I am able to crate animals while I'm away if needed.

Virginia took fantastic care of our two fur babies! We appreciated the time she took to make sure they got lots of playtime and love. The daily pictures were a treat as well. We will definitely book her again!

Virginia was amazing with Aspen and Willow! I had to request an extra last-minute visit, and she was so flexible and accommodating. She gave them great care with each visit and even sent photo updates—which I really appreciated. Aspen and Willow looked happy and comfortable in every one. I’ll definitely be booking again with her and highly recommend her to anyone needing a dependable and caring sitter! 🐾♥️🐾♥️

Right now this is my full time job. I have regular clients I have worked for for years. I cared for their babies even while I had another job and was in college. My husband takes care of our animals while I am away taking care of my clients' pets. I am happy to adjust to your schedule so your animals do not have to get out of their routine.
