Full-Time Pet Sitter: 1-on-1 Care
I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter with years of animal care experience. As a full-time sitter, I’ll devote my full attention to your pets throughout the day. I’ll follow their routines closely, including meals, walks, potty breaks, and playtime, so they always get the care and attention they need, even during typical work hours when other sitters might be too busy. Please note: on most Saturdays, I have another commitment from 5am-12pm. Please keep this in mind before booking, especially if your dog can’t be left alone for that length of time or requires meds, feeding, or other care during those hours. For boarding or house-sitting, I take only one client at a time and have no pets of my own, so your pets won’t need to share my care or space with other animals. This ensures a stress-free, calm environment that respects their routines and individual needs. I’m a UC Irvine graduate and former paralegal who now happily focuses on personalized, hands-on pet care. I’m experienced with administering some oral medications, including pills, powders, and liquids in food, and following detailed care instructions provided by owners to ensure every pet receives the best care. I treat every pet like my own, and my calm, positive energy helps them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Their happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. I create a calm and loving environment where pets can relax and feel truly cared for, even when their owners are away.

Ratings and reviews
Viviane was willing to take my boy on short notice, and provided plenty of pictures during his stay. Great sitter!
Did a great job caring for my dog and following the instructions I had for her. Thanks!
Was super impressed with Vivian and her care for our super anxious Gertrude. She took her on walks, made sure she was calm and not stressed on the 4th of July especially when fireworks were going off. Highly recommend her and will be back! Thank you Vivian!
Vivian took care of our dog for 5 nights. Vivian is a kind, professional person. She is very responsive from beginning to end. She also sent daily updates with pictures. Her thoughtful notes helped reassure us our dog was doing okay and adjusting while we were away. We could tell our dog was comfortable and had an amazing time with her despite him normally having separation anxiety. Her place was quiet, clean, and has access to outdoor for walks and potty breaks. We are happy we found Vivian and would not hesitate to have her care for him again in the future. Highly recommend. Thank you!!
Vivian did a great job walking my dog through the neighborhood. She was very attentive to the dog
Vivian was very attentive to Ollie. She made sure to provide daily updates and the adventures they went on for the day. We very much appreciated this! :)

Schedule
Throughout the day, your dog will receive plenty of attention and pets or cozy cuddles, helping them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I tailor walks to each dog’s energy and preferences, whether that’s a calm stroll around the neighborhood, potty breaks in your yard, or extra playtime in a safe, open area. Safety is always a top priority while we explore, sniff around, and enjoy our walks together.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Housesitting: I treat your home with care and respect, keeping everything clean and tidy. I double-check doors and appliances to make sure everything is secure, so your home is just as you left it when you return. Boarding: I live in a quiet, single-story home with my mom, who also loves dogs. Your pet will enjoy a calm and peaceful environment with no other pets, helping them feel completely at ease. They’ll receive plenty of attention, love, and care, just like part of our family!
A typical day
I follow each pet’s routine and any special instructions, making sure their day stays comfortable and stress-free. I pay close attention to your pet’s unique needs and personality so they feel happy and safe. My clients appreciate my reliability, responsiveness, and nurturing presence for their pets. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, or needs extra TLC, I take the time to build trust and provide gentle, individualized care.
