About Vinaya
Hello I am Vinaya, I am a caring, responsible, and passionate pet sitter and dog walker who truly understands that pets are family. I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with each pet by following their routine, personality, and individual needs.
I’m confident handling pets of different temperaments—whether that’s an energetic dog who needs long, engaging walks and playtime, or a shy or senior pet who requires patience, gentle care, and reassurance. I pay close attention to behaviour changes, eating habits, and comfort levels, and I know how to respond calmly in new or unexpected situations.
My home is clean, pet-friendly, and safe, with plenty of space for pets to relax and feel at ease during boarding or daycare. I ensure a calm environment with constant supervision, secure areas, and lots of affection. Pets are never left unattended for more than 2 hours as my partner works from home and I plan my schedule around their care. My partner generally WFH so he is more than happy to look after them while I am away. We both love animals.
Please let us know if your dog has separation anxiety and then I can plan my routine around them.
Safety is always my top priority. I follow feeding instructions carefully, maintain hygiene, secure doors and gates, use leashes at all times during walks, and keep pets away from hazards. I also provide regular updates, photos, and messages so owners feel relaxed and connected while they’re away.
For Cats- they have secure home with no access to backyard for their safety.
For Small dogs- they can access our backyard anytime of day. I generally take them two times a day for a walk in the park. They get their meals on the times provided by their owners.
I will try my best to stick to the routine that owner provides so that your pet feels happy and safe.
Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering love, patience, play, and comfort—so both pets and owners feel happy, safe, and confident in my care.
