Meet Viv

A lifelong animal lover, now caring for your pets full time.

Safe at Home with Viv was born from a simple belief: pets are happiest and healthiest in their own environment, surrounded by familiar sights, smells and routines. Boarding and kennels can be stressful. Home should not be.

I offer personal, one-on-one care in your home across Gauteng. From feeding schedules and medication to walks, playtime and plenty of affection, every pet is treated as if they were my own. Your home stays lived-in and secure while you are away, and your animals never have to leave the place they feel safest.

Whether you are travelling for a weekend or a few weeks, you will get regular updates and complete peace of mind.
