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.

Vivian was great! Super nice and responsive. She sent me videos and photos of my puppy Zoey during her 4 night stay. It was my first time using Rover. This app made everything very easy. Would use this app again in the future and absolutely recommend Vivian.

Vivian was amazing! I was very nervous about leaving my puppy for three days, but she immediately made me feel comfortable. She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave me great peace of mind. I loved that there were children and another dog around to play with my puppy, and everyone was so kind and welcoming. My puppy came home happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her! 😊🐾

It’s beautiful to see someone caring for an animal with such gentleness and presence. You can tell it's not just a job—there's affection, patience, and a welcoming approach that makes the animal feel safe and well cared for.

“Vivian has been caring for my dogs for many years, and I trust her completely with my two pups. She is incredibly attentive and treats them as if they were her own, showing them genuine love and care. I always have peace of mind knowing my dogs are safe, happy, and well cared for when they’re with her.”

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 "100% Eyes-On" policy. Pets are never left unattended outdoors; they are always on a leash and supervised. 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.
