Pet care experience

Dog lover who will spoil your baby!

I have had a dog for 11 years now, and both my mom and I are her primary caretakers. I LOVE dogs (more than humans)! My family knows me as the crazy dog girl and love to tease me about it. I have volunteered at an animal shelter and taken care of neighbors' dogs as well. I also watch my cousin's dogs while they are out of the house. Your pet will get plenty of belly rubs and playtime with me!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very friendly dog who would love to play with other dogs (as long as they don't come to our house- she gets territorial at home). I would love to take them to the dog park or on a walk together! If your pet doesn't like other animals, I would love to cuddle up with them on the couch or play fetch with them. I tend to spoil my dog- I let her sleep in my bed whenever she wants and go outside with her whenever she asks me to, but I will respect whatever the house rules are with your pets!

Virginia came to stay at our home with Olive and did such a wonderful job! She was great at communicating with us, sending us pictures throughout the week we were gone. She also checked our mail and took care of things around the house through freezing temperatures. Highly recommend and will be using her again.

Drop-In Visits • juin 26, 2024

Virginia is an exceptional pet sitter whom I've relied on twice for drop-in visits with my dogs. From our first meeting, it was clear she has a genuine love for animals. Virginia is delightful, pleasant, and very conscientious. My dogs adored her, and she went the extra mile to ensure each one had ample outdoor time. She even patiently stayed with one of my dogs who needed encouragement to go outside. Additionally, Virginia's kindness extended beyond pet care. Recognizing my current recovery from an injury, she willingly assisted me with various tasks. Her care and assistance surpassed my expectations, both for my dogs and for myself. I enthusiastically recommend Virginia for anyone seeking a compassionate and dedicated pet sitter.

House Sitting • juin 02, 2024

Virginia stayed at our house and watched our 2 pups for about a week while we were on a family trip. She was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She met them at an earlier date and took detailed notes concerning all responsibilities. She took care of their every need in our absence-walking them, feeding them and playing with them in addition to a few unexpected accidents with no problem. She also kept us informed each day as well as texted any additional questions she had. She even left a sweet blanket as a gift for our youngest pup. It was nice not having to worry about our dogs while we were gone and knowing they were well taken care of. I would highly recommend Virginia to anyone in the area if they are looking for a responsible, caring and experienced sitter for their family pets. You can tell she truly enjoys spending time with animals and does her best to provide the best care possible. Thank you so much again Virginia! We are so thankful for you and can’t wait to have you watch our pups again soon!! :)

Schedule

I have over 3 years of pet sitting experience! I recently returned from a year of teaching English in South Korea. While in South Korea, I fell in love with their dog cafes and would constantly go there. I currently teach English online, so my job works perfectly for house sitting!

I want to be aware of the dog's exact schedule day-to-day. When owners are on vacation/out of the home, it can be stressful on the pet, so knowing their schedule and following it can make the transition less stressful. I also want to be aware of any medications that your dog takes or any special needs they have.
