Your Fur Baby’s New Favorite Friend
Hi, I’m Vivian—a dog person (especially the snuggly & silly ones!). I’m a proud pawrent of an English Bulldog named Oso, who I’ve raised since he was just 2 months old. Being Oso’s human has taught me all about the quirks of high-energy puppies and the patience, maintenance, and unconditional love that dogs of all ages need. I also foster a senior German Shepherd named Scottie, so I’m comfortable caring for pups at every stage of life. Whether your dog is playful and bouncy or more of a chill couch potato, I tailor my care to match their unique personality and routine. (I’m a Gemini—versatile by nature!) I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting with plenty of love, snuggles, and personalized attention. Something that sets me apart is the genuine joy I find in bonding with every fur baby I meet. I know how important it is to find someone you trust, and I can’t wait to care for your pup like they’re one of my own. Let’s chat about how I can make your fur baby feel safe, happy, and right at home—even when you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment
I’ll treat every fur baby like my own. I take the time to understand their routines, preferences, and any special needs they may have—because I know how comforting consistency is for pets. I make sure they get plenty of love, playtime, potty breaks, and snuggles. I keep their environment clean and safe, and I always send regular updates and cute pics so you feel connected while you’re away. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and follow all instructions closely to keep things just how your pet likes it!
Ratings and reviews
Thank you Vivian! My senior dog needs medication and lots of gentle care. Vivian made it all work and took great care of managing and delivering medications for my big old guy. I will call Vivian first when next we need care and am happy to recommend her services.
Vivian was an absolute lifesaver for our little nervous little guy, Disco. He can be very anxious, but she handled him with so much patience and warmth. She quickly helped him settle into a happy routine filled with walks and snuggles. We could tell he felt safe and happy with her. Highly recommend Vivian to anyone looking for a compassionate and trustworthy dog sitter.
Vivian took care of our senior dog for 4 nights of our trip and did an amazing job. She was attentive, caring, and went above and beyond in terms of keeping our place clean! We really appreciated her thoughtfulness and would definitely trust her with our dog again.
My experience with Vivian was great! She demonstrated a high level of responsibility and attentiveness, consistently ensuring that my dog, Thor, was well cared for. She followed his feeding schedule precisely, took him on regular walks, and provided thoughtful, attentive care throughout the stay. She made sure to follow the instructions I provided her with when it came to feeding and grooming him. Throughout his stay she was also responsive and kept me updated on their time together. Her professionalism and dedication gave me great peace of mind. I highly recommend her care as she demonstrated great care towards Thor.
Vivian has watched my dog Clifford various times & I couldn’t be more grateful for her! She’s very patient with him & takes him for long walks as he’s VERY active and needs a lot of exercise. Definitely recommend her, & I know Clifford can’t wait for his next adventure with her.

I want your pet to feel as comfortable and cared for as they do with you! Don’t worry about over-communicating—I welcome texts and updates, and I’m happy to keep you in the loop while you’re away.
