Pet care experience

Animals love me and I love them!

Most animals sense I am an animal lover right off the bat! I love ALL animals (no breed restrictions).. I’m an Arizona native but new-ish to the Phoenix area. Besides being a pet owner of 2 cats, I do have multiple years of dog sitting/walking experience. I’ve volunteered for a couple years at the human society (in Tucson,az). I have also helped with birthing and raising of toy poodles. I’m organized, responsible, punctual and a hard worker. I do obtain a fingerprint clearance card (in case that helps with trusting me with your fur babies) I do not smoke or drink, I also have my own reliable vehicle. I’m always willing to communicate about your animal when I’m visiting or walking them. (Text/ photos/ email whatever is preferred) I will love every animal as if he or she were my very own!

Safety, trust & environment

N/a. I do not desire to have animals at my place. I would like to care for animals in their home and environment. It’s easier for me to adapt.

House Sitting • Jul 02, 2026

Virginia was great/ she kept me informed the whole time, sent me plenty of pictures and videos. Our pups are not high maintenance by any means but I like for them to stay active and not just lay around and she did a good job of keeping them entertained through out the day. Will be using her for drop ins that how much we enjoyed her !

Virginia was prompt, courteous, and took great care of the cats and the house. She sent lots of pictures and she fit right in with my little kitty guys' routine. Would definitely recommend!

Virginia is probably the biggest animal lover I know. She has nothing but compassion and consideration for every animal and pet she encounters. Her own pets are some of the best behaved and well cared for critters I’ve met. She’s probably one of the most excellent choices you could make to help care for your own furry loved ones.

Virginia is an incredible caring, passionate, and loving woman for not only her children and partner, but also her 2 cats and her dog that she has had in the past. She loves all animals, not just her own pets. She can't stand to see any animal even on TV be abused or hurt. She has previously cared for my cats when I went on vacation out of town and anytime I go out of town she will be there to care for my cats and I fully and completely trust her with my cats. Anyone who entrusts her with their pets can rest assured that they will be well taken care of and loved while they are away.

Virginia has watched my dogs for over 10 years and does an awesome job everytime! I always call her when I'm in need of a sitter for my babies. And my babies love her! Your definitely in good hands.

Important information I like to know about dogs before I sit them is their normal routine and any quirks they acquire. I want to make them feel comfortable with me and I am flexible to adapt In anyway
