Availability
I’m a mother of two so we like kid friendly Dogs. And we always have a good time there is enough love for them in our house. I am not home full-time, but I do have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to properly care for any pet staying in my home. Pets receive lots of attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and a loving family environment.

Safety, trust & environment
Our House has a nice front and back yard the back yard is fenced and they can play a lot there. When weather and my schedule it’s clear like to take play in backyard with them and do long walks around my neighborhood as a fitness instructor that would be a great motivation to complete my daily steps 😅 also kids love to be outdoors.

Information Vanessa A. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed preferences actually I haven't bought a dog in my life ! I adopted them or rescued all of them. All puppies are welcome if they are kid friendly :)
A typical day
Since I spend a lot of time at home, I’m usually with them throughout the day and rarely leave for more than 2–3 hours. When I’m home, dogs have frequent access to my fully fenced backyard, often every hour, for potty breaks, playtime, and enrichment. Most of the time I host other friendly dogs as well, so they enjoy supervised socialization, indoor play, outdoor activities, and lots of family interaction. We treat every dog like part of our family.

Reviews
Absolutely amazing! Took great care of my puppy on short notice and provided plenty of updates.


Vanessa did an awesome job taking care of our two doodles! She was very good at communicating and sent pictures daily of our pups. She took them on walks and has a big back yard for them to play. They seemed very happy there with her & her family & playing with some new puppy friends. I would definitely recommend her!

Vanessa is thoughtful, super sweet and knowledgeable with dogs. He takes care of Bobby like he was her own. I trust her every time we travel to care for him, without worrying about if he’s going to get taken care of correctly. Highly recommend 10/10

I’m so thankful for Vanessa! She was able to take in Marshall very last minute and watch him for the whole weekend. She was great at sending pictures and updates of him throughout the weekend too. He loved it and came home a happy dog!
