Only the best for your pet

Pet care experience

I have two years of experience dog walking and cat sitting. I absolutely adore animals, but I am not able to be a pet owner myself because of living arrangements and how much I travel. I am excited to be part of the rover community and meet and care for your pets when you are not able to. I am also an avid runner, so I can definitely take your energetic puppy out for a good run around the neighborhood. I can also take them for trail runs if that is something you’d prefer. I an very much looking forward to being your pet’s caregiver for those times when you need a bit of help. I look forward to meeting you and your beloved pets!

Vivian went above and beyond for our dog's visit. She sent us photos and videos everyday of our pup going on beach adventures. He was a tired and content boy at the end of the visit.

Vivian boarded my car for a few days. She was gentle and patient with Kitty while she was getting adjusted and Kitty settled right in. She has a very calm demeanor and a quiet calm space that made Kitty feel right at home. She communicated with photos and videos and was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. 10/10 recommend and would 100% board with Vivian again!

Information Vivian A. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet had any special needs, medications, and allergies. Aside from not working with doggies under 1 year and those over 100 lbs - this is simply for both of our safety. I have no strict restrictions

A typical day

There are various trails around my home and also a beach that allows dogs all the time. I typically like to walk to the beach and let them off leash to wander and explore and make friends. Then we come home and can play with other neighborhood dogs in the yard or just nap. Whichever they’d prefer

I am currently a grad student writing her dissertation which means I work from home everyday except 2 days of the week. This provides me a lot of time to walk around the neighborhood and even go on runs with doggies that stay with me
