Dog lover with home office

Pet care experience

"A dog will teach you unconditional love. If you can have that in your life, things won't be too bad." Robert Wagner I've had a German Shepherd and Coton de Tuléar as a kid, and since my arrival in Seattle in February 2016, I've been taking care of my friend's dogs (walks, hikes, and overnight stays). My husband, Azar, is a dog-lover too and dogs (mainly Boxer) have been a part of his life since his childhood as well. We're the kind of people who say hi to dogs on the street... We don't own a dog because my job keeps me away from Seattle far too much to take good care of a pet on a full-time basis, however, when my schedule allows, I love to take care of other's people dogs. We live in a 1300 Sq. Ft. loft in Pioneer Square. We don't have a yard but will make sure to take your dog to parks / green spaces (Olympic Sculpture Park / green space by Century Link stadium, etc) during their walks, if that's what you/he/she like/s. I partly work from home so if you do place a booking with me, I'll make sure to be with your dog during the day and take him/her out according to her/his "normal" schedule. We do not let dogs on our sofa and bed (so if it is important to you, we might not be the best fit!), but have plenty of room in our apartment to have his/her favorite bed/kennel in our bedroom corner, living room,... Generally speaking, we like to have only one dog at a time but it happens that some requests overlap (daycare / overnight stay). Should that be the case, I will make sure to check with all involved owners, that this is fine. Thank you for reading my profile. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have!

The best sitter we have ever had. He was spoiled while we were gone!

Tallulah loves her time with Virginie. Walks, dinner and love - what's not to like?

This is our first visit with Virginie, and she was lovely. She keeps her apartment warm, which is great for our thin-coated little min-pin/rat terrier girl. Easy communication,easy drop-off/pickup, and a very loving night for Tallulah.

Virgine has been so incredibly kind and welcoming to our dog, Sage, and my partner and I. She has been a life saver for our busy days of work and school and Sage comes home so happy. She gives our dog so much attention and walks, we are so grateful to have found her. Would definitely recommend!
