About Our Team
“Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen.”– Orhan Pamuk
Greetings! I'm Victoria, the enthusiastic and compassionate animal enthusiast behind VikiTikiTailTrails. Allow me to introduce myself, along with my lovely companions, Betty and Bentley.
Betty, a Ukrainian refugee Labrador, adores water activities, rolling in mud, and, of course, receiving plenty of cuddles and kisses. Bentley, the handsome black Labrador, is almost six years old and has become Betty's best friend, guiding her to be a well-behaved girl. Their bond is truly heartwarming.
Now, let me share a bit about my journey into the world of dogs. Like Betty, I hail from Ukraine. Last year, my family, including two children and our beloved dog, fled the ongoing war and found a safe haven in this amazing country.
Throughout my life, I've had an unwavering love for animals, particularly dogs and cats. They've been constant sources of joy and happiness for me. As time went on, I realised my true passion lies in caring for these beautiful creatures and making a positive impact in their lives.
Having spent a year here, juggling work at a school along with managing two children and our furry companion, I've come to a decision. With my son entering secondary school, handling three responsibilities might become overwhelming. Thus, I've decided to turn my passion into my profession, and that's how VikiTikiTailTrails came into being.
With years of experience and a deep understanding of canine behavior, I take immense pride in offering top-notch dog walking services that go beyond a simple stroll.
When your furry friend is in my care, rest assured they're in safe hands. The well-being and happiness of every dog under my watchful eye are my top priorities. I take the time to comprehend each dog's unique personality, preferences, and needs, ensuring a personalised and enjoyable experience during our walks.
Whether it's an energetic playtime at the park or a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood, I make sure every dog receives the exercise and attention they deserve. I firmly believe that a well-exercised and content dog is a happy dog, and this positively reflects in their behavior and overall well-being.
Safety is paramount in everything I do. I'm certified in dog handling and pet first aid, and during our walks, I maintain a keen eye on the surroundings to ensure a secure and stress-free experience.
Yet, beyond being just a dog walker, I strive to build lasting relationships with both my four-legged clients and their caring owners. Trust, open communication, and genuine care form the foundation of my service.
When you entrust your beloved furry companion to VikiTikiTailTrails, rest assured they will be treated as a member of my own family. Your dog's happiness, comfort, and safety are of utmost importance, and I'll go above and beyond to ensure they enjoy every moment with me.
I eagerly look forward to meeting you and your wonderful dogs. Let's embark on this pawsome journey together, one wagging tail at a time!
With warmest regards,
Victoria, Betty and Bentley
