Safety, trust & environment

When visiting your home, my priority is that your pet feels safe, comfortable, and unstressed. I follow your routines closely: feeding schedules, favorite spots, walk routes, and any quirks only you know about. I also keep an eye on their health throughout every visit, hydration, mobility, behavior, appetite, and I'll flag anything that seems off.

Information Vivien G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I should be aware of. Complex medication schedules are everyday business for me.

A typical day

When I care for your pets, I focus on activities that provide both physical enrichment and mental stimulation tailored to their specific personality, energy level, and health needs.

Finding someone you can fully trust with your dog is honestly such a big deal, and we’re so happy we found Vivien. She’s always amazing with Frieda, super reliable, really caring, and always pays attention to what Frieda needs. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs, and Frieda absolutely loves her too. We couldn’t recommend her more. Five stars! 🐶🤍

Vivien took exceptional care of my dog, providing the perfect balance of playfulness, attentiveness, and affection. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such capable and loving hands. Highly recommended to anyone needing a trustworthy petsitter!

Vivien has taken care of our 15-year-old Golden Retriever, Abby, several times, and we couldn't be happier with her support. Abby is a senior dog with chronic pain, arthritis, and various health issues, so she requires a lot of attention, patience, and understanding. Vivien always treated Abby with incredible kindness and compassion. She took the time to understand her special needs, followed all care instructions carefully, and made sure Abby felt comfortable and safe. It gave us great peace of mind knowing that Abby was in such caring and capable hands. I would highly recommend Vivien to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring dog sitter, especially for senior dogs or dogs with special medical needs.
