Virgina is very sweet and communicated well with us throughout her three week stay at our home with our dog Louie. She took great care of our beloved dog and home. He has meds and specific diet which she followed at our request. She also took him on lots of walks. The home was clean and tidy before we arrived home. I definitely will use her services again and recommend her for any help you may need.

Virginia was a great communicator, she took great care of our home and our dog Finn. She followed all our directions and was great to work with.

Virginia was a lifesaver! We needed a dog/house sitter last minute, and she gladly accepted without hesitation. She even showed up at 5 AM when we were panicking about our puppy Chico barking and the neighbors possibly complaining. That alone already meant so much to us. She took such great care of Chico, played with him, kept him entertained, and he genuinely seemed to have an amazing time with her. We came home to a happy pup and a clean house, which says everything about how thoughtful and responsible she is. We’re super grateful for her help and would absolutely book her again. Highly recommended! 💛🐾

Absolutely phenomenal, dog care, with extremely personalized service and very attentive to our very hyperactive dogs needs. If you’re looking for someone who is very trustworthy to look after your your pet, I could not recommend anyone more – she was absolutely fantastic. We received photos every day, and it was very clear all the time that our dog was first priority, and being treated very well.

Safety, trust & environment

My dog was fed a mix of wet and dry food, water bowl always full, and daily drive/park/play/walks/hikes (regarding the weather at the current moment of time).

A typical day

I start the day with water, a walk, followed by some food. Open fenced backyard, nearby a dogpark for social interaction, and a nearby hike (if needed for pets with high energy).

Cats

I believe in being very encouraging, interactive, and docile with pets while always learning about their needs. Adapting to follow pets' daily lifestyle, regimen, promoting their health and longevity.
