Experiencia en el cuidado de mascotas
In love with every single dog
I grew up with large breed dogs and my girl, Lilly, was a traumatized special needs high energy rescue who came to enjoy friendships, travel, other animals and children in our 15 years together. I miss her SO much and her care was such a primary purpose for me that now that I’m without her I don’t know what to do with myself- unless I’m taking care of other dogs that I love. She really taught me about body language, trust, and how to find the secret dog-friendly beaches! I love watching other people’s dogs because when I send them a picture of their baby they are required to think it’s as cute as I do. Gaining the trust and respect of a dog is just the most pure and beautiful connection, I take it as a high compliment. I can give oral medication and know cpr and other emergency first aid procedures for dogs. I don’t currently have any experience with injection medication, but if that need arises please message me and I will seek the proper training. Having had a very senior dog for years, I am familiar with the needs that come with age, and I am also very comfortable establishing and maintaining boundaries and routines for puppies. I keep an active lifestyle- I am a trained dancer in my day job- so I’m very confident that I can give your baby the exercise they deserve. We’ll have so much fun and I’ll try not to overwhelm you with pictures of them! If we do get dirty outside I am very comfortable giving your pup a bath, please just let me know if that’s ok in your initial text. Due to limited availability I am unable to offer unpaid visits at this time. We can hop on a video call to discuss your dog’s care and any questions you may have for free. If you would like to meet in person simply book a Drop In Visit and I will be happy to add you to my schedule.

Seguridad, confianza y entorno
My apartment is small and open, with very few hiding places for a dog to find trouble. It’s a studio, so your baby will always be under my direct supervision, and I am comfortable crating them while I’m out if that is something you require. Our storage is organized so that everything below chest-height is nontoxic and human food is inaccessible to even the most enterprising pup. We don’t have any furniture with glass panes and all chemicals are stored in closed cabinets.

We LOVE Viva!! She is the absolute best. So patient, loving, kind to our crazy pup. We are so thankful for all the dog love she has given our dog ♥️
Viva was amazing with my little Otis! I was out of the country and she sent me pictures everyday to let me know he was doing well and let me have my peace of mind knowing that he was happy and being loved while I was gone. She also washed the sheets and towels so everything was nice when I got home. 100% will be booking with Viva again. Could not have had a better experience :)
Viva is fabulous. She took wonderful care of my house and my dog, Maya, while I was away for work. She has excellent communication, and I really appreciated the photo updates. Viva also is very accommodating and really helped me out because my flight was delayed and I was unable to make it home until the following day. I appreciate her understanding and flexibility. I could tell Maya warmed up to her very quickly- she looked very happy in all the photos. I returned home and Maya's demeanor was so relaxed, calm, and overall at ease. We both look forward to her next stay. Thank you, Viva.
I have outdoor cameras as well as pet cameras in the main living areas of my home. (No cameras in the guest area of the home designated for the sitter) Viva failed to notify me that she had a personal requirement that these cameras be disabled until after I’d left town and was in critical meetings. This forced me to leave my meetings to make other arrangements for my dog and to impose on a friend to cover until I could get home. The lack of up front communication and the way she made it a crisis that I had to address immediately was deeply unprofessional.
Leon had a great time with Viva! He came home happy and tired :) viva definitely knows how to build relationships with dogs and also their humans! She sent fabulous pictures of Leon clearly happy and relaxed. I can’t thank her enough! Also communication was clear easy and accurate.
Viva is the absolute best!! I am so grateful to have found her and cannot recommend her enough. It’s such a relief to know your dog is not only in caring, knowledgeable hands but is also having the most fun day!! Our pup absolutely adores her. We appreciate all the picture updates she sends, her flexibility, clear communication, and her incredible positive energy.

I attend two 1hr dance classes every day, very close to my home, and unless I have a scheduled performance I work from home, running my music business from the computer. Thank you for sharing your puppy with me so I have a reason to get outside!

- If you have cats or smoke cigarettes I will not able to provide care in your home and ask that you book either Boarding or Daycare services instead. It is policy that pet parents disclose the details of all audio and visual recording devices in their homes prior to booking. If that doesn’t work for you I can recommend a colleague who specializes in cats.
