Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Vivian. I am a fellow dog owner looking to care for other small/medium dogs at my home. I am a proud owner of my sweet 3 year old Shih Apso and often care for pets (cats and dogs!) belonging to family and friends. My dog, Levi, is most likely epileptic and has been having seizures since the summer of 2023. I’m hoping to give him the best life possible by hosting other dogs in our home and giving him all of the playtime in the world. Because of Levi’s medical condition, I have experience in administering daily medicine orally and will continue to adjust to this new lifestyle for our family. My main option on here is dog walking but would be more than happy to host your furry loved one. I look forward to welcoming and caring for your pet!

Vivian sent frequent updates about Jasper’s daycare! I enjoyed all the videos and photos. Jasper and her dog Levi had a great day together. I felt at ease knowing Jasper was well cared for while I was at work. Her hours are flexible and I was lucky to find her last minute for Memorial Day. I would definitely use Vivian’s services again.

Thank you Vivian for walking Gracie. She was very happy when I got home and I am glad you were available to walk her. You have my highest regard.

Vivian is sweet, caring and very attentive. She gives full attention to her dog on walks, never uses her phone and is very safe and responsible. If I were looking for a well organized type A dog-sitter then she is at the top of my list.

Although I do not have a yard, my neighborhood is dog friendly and I can provide your baby long (or short!) walks. I also have a small, friendly pup, Levi, who can keep your dog company and is always up for some play time! We also have a ton of enrichment toys, puzzles, natural treats/chews I can give to your baby with permission.

A typical day

I am an early riser and love to get a coffee to start my day. In the morning, we can walk to a nearby coffee shop and the nearby parks/grassy areas. At home, we will play with toys and puppy puzzles - my pup Levi, will definitely help :). In the evening, we'll go on another walk before or after dinner to get some fresh air. Levi also loves cuddling and watching tv - we can also do absolutely nothing as well!
