Pet care experience

With over four years of dedicated pet care experience, I bring not only a profound love for animals 🥰 but also a set of specialized skills that ensure your pet receives the utmost care and attention. My experience is not limited to pet sitting; I'm also adept in handling various pet-related situations that require a deeper understanding and connection with animals. Firstly, my proficiency in training puppies sets me apart. I employ positive reinforcement techniques, making the training process enjoyable and effective for the young ones, fostering good behavior from an early age. This approach helps in nurturing a well-behaved and socially adaptable pet, easing your journey as a pet parent in the long run. Furthermore, I hold a special place in my heart for senior pets and have garnered substantial experience in senior pet care. I understand their unique needs, be it administering medication, assisting with mobility, or providing the gentle companionship they need during their golden years. My approach is always patient, empathetic, and tailored to each senior pet's specific health and emotional requirements. In addition to these, my first-aid skills for pets, knowledge of dietary needs, and ability to handle emergency situations confidently ensure that your beloved furry friend is safe and happy in my care. My commitment to providing personalized care that meets and exceeds your expectations truly distinguishes my services in the pet care industry. 💕

Teddie always has the best time at Vy’s house! I honestly can’t remember how many times Teddie has stayed here, but every single time has been such a great experience. They provide frequent updates and send pictures every day, which gives me so much peace of mind. I also really appreciate how flexible they are with pick-up and drop-off times, even when it’s super early or really late. Teddie is always so happy and comfortable here — we’re so grateful to have found them!

We’ve booked with Vy 3 times now. Every experience has been great. She takes care of Charlie and always keeps us updated with photos which gives us peace of mind knowing Charlie is happy and doing well. Charlie gets to spend time with other dogs during his stay and we think that’s good for his socialization and overall wellbeing. Vy has convenient drop off and pick up services which have been helpful to us. We often neeed to catch flights or are exhausted after traveling home so having that flexibility makes the whole experience much less stressful. We appreciate the care and help Vy gives us. Thanks!

Thank you Vy for great communication since the start and throughout my 1 week trip. I appreciate your flexibility in extending my dog’s stay when my trip home got delayed by a day. And of course, thank you for the many pictures you shared - definitely looks like my dog had a great time! :)

Vy and Ben were beyond amazing!!! Our dog Rob absolutely loved his time with them. There wasn’t one single photo that Vy sent us where he wasn’t smiling or having a great time. They treated Rob extremely well and kept us updated throughout his entire stay. We will definitely be booking with them again 🩷
