5+ Years Care: Dogs & Exotics

With over five years of dedicated pet-sitting experience, our family offers a unique, multi-species "home away from home" experience. Our household is a true animal-loving environment where every guest is treated like one of our own. Our 10-year-old Jack Russell, Mel, is the ultimate hostess, she is incredibly friendly, gentle, and loves playing with new friends. Because we share our home with everything from dogs to snakes, turtles, and lizards, we are uniquely equipped to handle a wide variety of needs. Our 16-year-old is particularly passionate about exotic pet care, ensuring that even the smallest or most unique pets get the specialized attention they require. Whether it’s a senior dog needing a gentle pace or a high-energy pup ready for the backyard, we have the experience to make them feel safe and loved. IMPORTANT PRICING NOTICE: The base rate shown applies ONLY to small and medium dogs (under 40 lbs). Large dogs (41–100 lbs) require a +$15/night surcharge, which will be manually applied to your quote before booking confirmation. Please note that we do not accommodate giant breeds (101+ lbs).

Such a wonderful boarding experience for Mia! The whole family was so sweet to her and made sure she had everything she needed the entire stay. I loved getting so many updates and photos throughout the visit—it gave me total peace of mind. Mia came home happy and well-loved. We will definitely be rebooking

Vivian, her husband Cris, and their two kids provided excellent care for my sweet Beagle. Vivian sent me daily photos and updates. These photos showed that my Beagle was a happy boy. I highly recommend Vivian for dog-sitting with love, care, and lots of walks.

This was our dog Casey’s first - and hopefully not last - booking with Vivian. She sent pictures every day which made it easy to enjoy our vacation knowing our dog was in good hands. It was a pleasure meeting the family and we thank them all for taking such good care of Casey. We hope to book again for our next vacation and would recommend Vivian to anyone else looking for a trusted sitter.

Schedule

My home is active and full of life! My routine is centered around pet happiness: morning walks in our pet-friendly community, plenty of playtime in our spacious backyard, and quiet relaxation in the evenings. Your pet will never lack for attention. Whether it’s feeding time for our fish and reptiles or a game of fetch with my dog Mel, pet care isn't just a task for me- it’s a central part of my daily life.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is my absolute priority. I live in a large house with a beautiful open backyard. While my yard is not fenced, I operate on a strict "100% Eyes-On" policy. Pets are never left unattended outdoors and are always leash-walked for bathroom breaks and exercise. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment where guest animals have plenty of room to explore or find a cozy corner for a nap. To build trust with you, I provide: - Constant Communication: Frequent photo and video updates so you can see how much fun your pet is having. - Socialization: Carefully supervised interactions with Mel to ensure everyone is comfortable. - Specialized Care: Deep knowledge of reptile and aquatic needs, ensuring your exotic pets stay on their specific light and feeding schedules.
