I'd look after your dog as my own.

Pet care experience

I have lived with dogs (and cats) for more than 10 years in Asia and US. I also raised two lovely Shih Tzu since they were 3-month old. Each and every dog (and cat) is precious in his / her own way. They certainly make our lives happier and more fulfilling. To help my dogs to make more furry friends I started babysitting dogs since we relocated to Seattle three years ago. Babysitting dog is not just fun but a serious responsibility. I have promised to myself that I shall treat every dog as my own by accepting their uniquesnes and giving them absolute love. I have kept this promise and will continue to do so. The care I would expect from other sitters for my dogs I shall do the same for yours.

Virginia was absolutely amazing with our dog, Lyla! She is everything you want in a sitter - caring, communicative, experienced and flexible. Right from the start, Virginia and Francis welcomed Lyla to share their home with their two dogs Mochi and Mocha. We scheduled a pre-stay visit to introduce Lyla and I could immediately see how loving they were going to be towards her. Both Virginia and Francis are very attentive and constantly watching out for the dogs in their care. During her stay, Lyla was taken on long walks, brushed, kept mentally stimulated through games and generally very well taken care of. In addition, Virginia shared frequent updates including pictures and videos of Lyla. She even had some great tips on probiotics for dogs (Lyla has a sensitive tummy). She is an amazing sitter and we would reach out to her again in a heartbeat. Thank you Virginia and Francis!

I could not have ask for better care for Max. Virginia ask for all the details about Max's needs and she followed them to a T. Both she and her husband were so loving to my dog. She kept me constantly updated with pictures and messages. She is truly a dog lover and very reliable. She is a great caregiver.

We highly recommend Virginia. We left our little guy with her for about 10 days and he was well taken care of. We received a lot of updates and great pictures. She and her husband really love dogs. We would leave him there again. Thank you!

Virginia and her husband Francis were so kind to Mia! They went out of their way to make her feel comfortable and their dogs were so sweet! We got constant pictures of her playing with toys, getting neck massages, and going to dog parks with her pals! We are 100% going to send Mia next time! In fact, when we picked her up, we were joking about how she might not want to come home because she looked like she had such a good time!

Information Virginia K. would like to know about your pet

Daily routines. Like and dislike. Health issue. Medical condition. Special needs. I do not have breed preferences as long as not aggressive or dread; and comfortable around my dog in particular for home boarding.

A typical day

I live in a gated community where provide lavish green space and inter trail so I can walk dogs frequently and safely. On top of that, there are few parks with off lash dog playground in my neighborhood. Within 10 mins drive we can get down to Lake Samammish trail for a relaxed and peaceful walk.
