Pet care experience
Where Dogs Feel Safe & Loved
Growing up with a Chihuahua, Jack Russell, and Dachshund mix taught me how rewarding it is to care for energetic, affectionate dogs. Since then, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities; from helping raise a litter of Poodle puppies to walking Golden Retrievers and spending time around farm dogs. I believe every dog is different, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable, whether that's an active play session, a long walk, or simply quiet companionship. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I'm available seven days a week. I work part-time in catering at my college, but I choose my schedule around bookings whenever possible, giving me the flexibility to prioritize your pet's care. When caring for pets in their own home, I treat both your pet and your home with the same respect I would my own. I carefully follow your routines, from feeding schedules and walks to medications and any special instructions. I also provide regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. For overnight house sitting, I want to be completely transparent that my husband accompanies me for my personal safety while staying in an unfamiliar home. He does not provide pet care, and I remain your pet's sole caregiver throughout the stay. All walks, feeding, medications, playtime, updates, and communication are handled entirely by me. If you have any questions about this arrangement, I'm always happy to discuss them before booking.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in their own home, I do everything I can to keep them comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walking routines to any special needs your dog may have. I pay attention to details like locking doors, checking gates, and keeping an eye out for anything that could pose a risk. I believe trust is built through communication, so I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pup is safe and happy. My goal is to care for your dog the same way you would, lovingly and responsibly. I would also like to mention that for overnight housesitting I feel more comfortable having my husband stay with me.
Ratings and reviews
She came at the very last minute! My dog sitter had canceled last minute and I had to find another with only 45 minutes till my train was leaving and she replied and came right over. Very good with both my dogs.
Excellent care provided. Great communication!
Wiktoria and her husband stayed in our home with our dog, Millie, for seven nights. Overall, Millie was well cared for and happy. They were also very flexible in extending their stay when our travel was disrupted, which we truly appreciated. We did have a few areas that didn’t fully meet our expectations. Millie was only taken on two walks during their stay, despite our request for daily walks or outings (even short car rides). We understand February weather in Massachusetts can be challenging, especially with a snowstorm during their visit, but we were hoping for a bit more activity. On the first day, Millie was left alone for over nine hours without prior discussion. While she can handle being alone for up to eight hours, we had emphasized that she typically spends very little time alone, and we had chosen Wiktoria based on her open availability. Thankfully, once we raised this concern, it didn’t happen again. Communication was limited — we received only a few pictures and updates, usually after we reached out first. As new users of in-home dog sitting, we realize we might have needed to be clearer about wanting daily check-ins, but it was something we expected based on other reviews. During their stay, Wiktoria let us know about ants appearing in the guest room — unusual for our home and especially for February. We offered our usual treatment suggestions, and although we found a few crumbs on the rug upon returning home, the issue now seems resolved. Overall, while Millie was safe and content, the experience didn’t quite meet our expectations given Wiktoria’s strong reviews. It was a helpful learning experience for us as first-time Rover users, and we appreciate the care she provided.
We love Wictoria and more importantly Katarina von Pickles loves Wictoria! Always responsive and takes great care of the house and our beloved princess. Our go-to sitter...
Wiktoria did a great job with Bentley. He loved having her hanging out with him for an hour. We are so glad to have found her. We will definitely use Wiktoria again!
Wictoria is great. Katty adores her. She takes great care of my house and is always very responsive.

Schedule
I am available every day of the week. I work part-time in catering at my school, but I’m able to choose my shifts weekly based on events occurring. This gives me a lot of flexibility, especially when bookings are made in advance, so I can plan my catering schedule around your pet’s needs.
