Flexible schedule, running/hiking!

Pet care experience

Like most dog lovers, I’ve always considered my pets to be part of the family; and when someone is part of your family, you only want the best for them. Since my first dog-sitting gigs as a kid, I’ve always enjoyed caring for pets. Since then, I have had dogs of my own and have done my fair share of watching pets for friends and family. I have a flexible schedule year round, am attentive and experienced, and enjoy getting outside to run, hike, swim and ski. I am comfortable with all kinds of breeds, large and small, from puppies to seniors. If you’re looking for an attentive and loving helping hand with a flexible schedule, who enjoys canine company, I’m the dog-sitter for you!

Vanessa's active lifestyle and flexible schedule make her ideal for taking care of a pet. She is a loving and attentive caregiver. She even got my pup a squeaky squirrel toy when he took an interest in the abundant fauna in the woods near her home, and he still totes it around. I would highly recommend Vanessa for any of your doggy needs.

I work odd hours with an unusually rigid schedule, and Vanessa has been able to accommodate these difficulties with grace and punctuality. She has become a trusted resource when we need help caring for our black lab on short notice, extended trips, or even just to get him out more often during particularly busy months. Despite his large presence and frequently boundless energy, she has always handled him with ease. I cannot overstate the quality of the canine care giving that we have come to expect from her, and would recommend her services without reservation.

My dogs are always excited to see Vanessa. She takes great care of them, and brings them back ready for a nap, which I know is important since I can't always take them out every day. She's super professional and is always on time. 10/10 would recommend.

Vanessa is a super caring dog lover! She's friendly & responsible, you can trust that she will take great care of your dog and never let you down when you book with her. She's always been so wonderful with my dog Fern, who can be a little skittish at times, and Fern is always so happy to see her. Vanessa is an active person and will be able to give your pup the exercise and attention he or she needs. Any dog would be lucky to have Vanessa walking or dog sitting them!! :)

All breeds are welcome! I would love to know how your dog is on/off leash, if they get along with other dogs (or specific breeds), and any other specifics or nuances you feel are important to share.

A typical day

I frequently enjoy running and or hiking in Mill Creek, Red Butte and Emigration Canyon (to name a few). Tanner Park can be fun for a swim and visiting other dog parks throughout the city are great places to make friends.
