Vivian looked after Patty’s pets & home
Vivian has been a foster Mom for the Humane Society of Fairfax County, Mt. Vernon Rescue, and Pets Bring Joy for over 2 years. She fostered and cared for adult cats and kittens in her home. She provided excellent care, was totally reliable, and the cats immediately felt safe and loved in her care. Vivian was flexible with foster periods, and she provided detailed feedback on how the cats were adjusting and progressing, which helped our cats transition to forever homes. I felt completely relaxed when she was caring for one of our cats because of her level of experience. She also went the extra mile by socializing each cat and kitten, providing each with much needed personal attention. She has a gentle demeanor and a kind heart making her the perfect foster Mom. She was in high demand during the time that she volunteered with our rescue groups because of her commitment to the cats and her willingness to always help. She is an outstanding caretaker and a friend to all animals.

About Vivian
Hello! I am currently retired and am looking forward to doing a lot of travelling! I was a lawyer and then a stay-at-home-mom. I am planning on trying out housesitting to see if I like it, and eventually I will get my husband to do it…
Why I want to house sit
It seems to be a win-win situation for both the sitter and the homeowner. Staying in a comfortable home and taking care of cats (which I love to do!) sounds like a great way to travel.
