Pet care experience

Your dog's wellbeing is my priority

I have taken care of dogs since I was a small child. With over a decade of experience, I have utilized my skills to help my friends and family take care of their furry babies while they are away or out of town. From puppies to senior dogs, I have the patience and skills needed to ensure their wellbeing and happiness.

I've never met anyone who absolutely loves animals as much as Vanesa. She has a few cats right now that she adores with all her heart and makes sure they receive all the love, care, and respect they deserve plus more. Any pet in her care is in good hands.

Good day, Vanesa Navarrete has been a great loving pet giver. She has cared deeply for her pets since childhood. She loved and took great care of her ferret for years until it passed away, she cried for days. She has taken care hamsters and dogs. During her teen years she decided to become a vegetarian and them became vegan in order to save animals and their abuse. Over the last 10 years she has loved and cared deeply of cats. Currently she has rescued 4 wonderful cats. All of her cats live in harmony. One of her cats was diagnosed with cancer almost two years ago, she along with her husband gave it all in order to save the cat, two years later the cat is still alive, under a strict diet and care. Another of her cats got sick a few months ago and they gave it all the care possible, sadly this one passed away. This was a hard reality for Vanesa, she still cries cause she misses her cat named “chapo” she rescued the cat cause the mother rejected him. She bottle fed him and took great care of him for years. She cares for all animals and is against animal abuse. She would adopt and care for all the animals if could. She has a great soul. She is a great cat advocate.
