Pet care goes smoothly with my schedule as a mom and a flea market vendor. My husband Julian does help out in every activity with our pawed guests too. We include a free walk for every day of the stay. Dogs will be taken out to the yard on demand or twice an hour for potty times. For all dogs we will provide two separate hours of play time during the day. If a dog has high energy we will play for about 10 minutes after every potty time.

Safety, trust & environment

Some of the safety measures with my service include having a fenced back yard, being outside with the dogs until they are ready to go back inside, and having a calm and cozy environment for each individual dog or cat guest.

Information Vanessa A. would like to know about your pet

If there are any special things that make your dog feel more comfortable I would be more than happy to take notes and use it during your pet's visit. I will appreciate to be informed of any pains that your furry buddy has so we can be careful or go slower during activities like walks and playtime.

A typical day

A fun activitiy I like to do with dogs is learning new tricks or practicing known tricks! I enjoy running around with dogs like a chase game and also playing with different squeek toys or bounce balls.

Pet care experience

As an owner of two senior dogs I have learned that they need extra patience and care. I make sure the dogs are feeling comfortable and relaxed by taking the dogs outside as they need to use the bathroom and sun bath for a while. But I also like to give them plenty of time inside if they just want to rest and be pet or cuddled. It's important they get excersise too with some play time or a walk.

Great service, very friendly. It was our first time using Rover and we were very hesitant at first. Vanessa made us feel confident since the first time we had communication with her. Throughout our baby's stay with her she maintained communication and sent us pictures with updates. Our pet is very energized and when we picked him up and in the pictures Vanessa shared with us our Leo was very happy. We would most definitely recommend her services with our famiky and friends!

We have a 9 year old poodle who has many issues like anxiety and she doesn't trust many humans. This year we had an emergency leave and needed a caregiver. After talking to a few people, we decided to leave our Destiny with Vanessa. After our returnand to our surprise we saw Destiny socializing with other dogs and very comfortable with Vanessa. There are many ways to choose a caregiver for our Destiny but seeing Destiny so happy with her new pack and Vanessa, is what sold me

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
