Pet care experience

Infinite love to give

Hello everyone! I’m Vanesa, originally from Aruba with Colombian roots, and I’ve been in Amsterdam for 3 years now, working hard toward my goals as a student. Animals have always been a big part of my life! I have two wonderful dogs back home in Aruba a 10 year old Golden Retriever mix named Toby and a 5year old Husky named Skyler who I miss dearly and adore so much. Since I can’t be with my own pups right now, I would love to take care of yours! My student apartment is cozy, and I live near a lovely park where we can go for fun walks and playtime. I’m excited to give your furry friend lots of attention, love, cuddles, and care when you can’t be there. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I speak Papiamento, Spanish, Dutch, and English and am here to make sure your pets feel right at home. Hope to meet your babies soon!

Doggy Day Care • Feb 13, 2026

Vanesa took care of Mambo and Mambo had an amazing time! Mambo was completely relaxed during his stay with Vanesa, and he was calm and very happy when I picked him up. Vanesa told me how the day went and I noticed, based on what she told me, that she really took good care of Mambo while at home but also during walks. I definitely recommend Vanesa if you're in need of a nice and careful person to take care of your dog.

Vanesa took in my rescue Costa for a stay over and he was super excited. He can be a bit difficult and scared especially the first time but Vanesa and her boyfriend took great care of making him feel at home. They played with him, kept to his schedule and took him for nice walks. He was both excited and well spent when I picked him up. Great caretaker and dog lover I can certainly recommend to everyone!

Vanessa took care of Simba for three days, and it was incredible! Simba came back home super calm and happy, as if he had been in his own house. She sent me pictures every day, took him for walks, and made sure he was well cared for. I could really see how happy he was! The stay was very smooth, and she even bought a little stuffed toy for Simba — he came home proudly carrying it, all excited. I truly recommend Vanessa and would definitely book with her again.

Vanesa is een topper. Houdt echt van honden en en snapt ze. Voelde Jack (een Aussie, dus een gevoelig manneke) heel goed aan en is heel zorgvuldig in haar verzorging.
