House Sitting in Victoria

“Katherine and her daughter Nora have taken care of our dog several times now and every time is an absolutely great experience. Highly recommend!”

“Our dogs loved being with Victoria while we were away on a trip! It was our first time having someone watch them in our house, but it went really smoothly and the daily updates provided us with the peace of mind that they were doing well. We would love to have her watch our dogs the next time we are away!”

“Ryan was awesome! He was adamant about meeting my chihuahuas and giving updates often! He made sure that they were comfortable when some big storms moved through and was so considerate of being in our home. We are grateful and would use again.”

About: I have had both cats and dogs for as long as I can remember! I have had both through all stages of their lives, puppy/kitten - senior. I also have experience with administering medications. I am a college student who misses my own pets, and I would love to help care for yours so they do not get lonely! I am currently a college student and I do not have another job at the moment. This semester I am in class from 12pm-3pm M/W/F, and 8am-1:30pm on T/Th. Outside of that, I am a student leader so I have meetings on Monday’s from 3:30-5pm and events on some Friday's. However, I make sure to find time on my lunch breaks and before and after class to make sure pups can get outside and get a little love in between the times I have to be away. At my home, I have a fenced in yard for my dog, who is generally very well behaved, but I do not leave him unattended for long. He loves to wrestle and be brushed, so we do that often. He gets food once daily, per vet recommendations. In the past when I have had cats, they loved to cuddle and were pretty lazy. I cleaned out their litter box’s every 1-2 days, and they were grazers so I kept their food and water full daily.

“We love Grace! She is always willing to work with us even when it's last minute! Thanks Grace for taking such good care of our pets! We truly appreciate you.”

About: Hi everyone, My names Ellana! Im currently 20 years old and absolutely adore animals! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old and currently have a frenchie of my own back in MN! Being away from home can be tough at times but spending time with animals is really an escape for me. I love all dogs from big to small, I do have a little bias for all breeds of bulldogs though, they are my fav! I am currently looking into going into canine physical therapy as a full time role for my future:) I’d love to help out as needed so please send me a message! I am a very active student so I love being able to give dogs the time outside that they need. That being said I am always willing to stay in for some cuddles. I have weekends off from all class and job requirements so I like to fill those times with some furry friends! I have my own room and plenty of space and capacity to take dogs on adventures via car or walk! I love spoiling pups when they are with me.

“Stephanie took great care of my girls and my house. She was an excellent communicator and I loved the photos she sent while I was away. I would definitely have her back to care for my dogs again!”

About: I’ve had a dog for 6 years and have always loved being around animals. I’m experienced with daily care including feeding, walks, playtime, giving attention, and making pets feel comfortable. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I recently graduated college and have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with pets. I’m available for walks and drop-ins during weekdays. I am available for pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away. Because I have cared for my own dog for 6 years, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable. I always make sure pets have fresh water, attention, exercise, and a calm environment. I’ll follow any routines or instructions closely and treat your pets like they’re my own.

About: I have taken care of dogs and horses and absolutely enjoy making sure they feel safe and loved. Pets bring so much joy and comfort. I hope to do the same for the pets I am watching. I'm currently working part-time, so I am available for more time. My son is off to the Marines, so I can stay at the client's house. This love for pet sitting began when my friends asked me to take care of their animals while they were on. vacation I prefer the pets at the client's house, where they feel more comfortable. Building trust with pets is key; they feel safe and secure while parents are gone. I will communicate with you as well as you see fit when you are gone to ensure you are happy and safe.

“Elizabeth was an amazing dog sitter for our 12 year old Golden Retriever, Maggie! She was patient with her and communicated with me regularly during her stay at our house. Maggie was very well taken care of and happy when we returned! Many thanks to the time and attention that Elizabeth gave her!!”

“Camille provided regular updates throughout her stay. In particular, she reiterated what she had done in terms of feeding, medication, and potty breaks so I felt very confident my instructions were being followed. I also appreciated her frequent photos along with her updates. She was respectful of our home and belongings; nothing is out of place and she even tidied up before she left. I hate leaving my baby, but Camille’s updates kept me from worrying.”
