WFH Dog Mom with Flexibility!

Pet care experience

I've always loved animals, and always had animals of my own until I started my career. My schedule didn't allow me to care for a pet the way I wanted to. Now that I have more flexibility, I'd like to help care for other people's pets so they don't have to worry that their dog or cat has been fed, loved, and cared for. I love each pet’s personality and think they bring a certain calmness and fun to our home environment. I couldn't imagine life without dogs running around! In college I was a vet tech, so I have experience with many different breeds. I also was a dog walker previously, so I'd say my experience spans over 12 years. I'm comfortable caring for and walking dogs of all ages and any dogs with special needs. I live with my fiance and my dogs Louis, Emma, and our new rescue Ollie. Louis is 6yrs old, Emma is 5, and Ollie is 1. I'm quick with communication and am always sure to update a pet's parents with a text or photo. They are free to contact me anytime for multiple updates! I want each pet parent to feel at ease when their beloved pet is in my care. I want the best for each animal and intend to do everything I can to make their experience the best.

Vanessa is amazing! She's always on time & reliable. She gives great updates which is important when you have a puppy! :) I will continue booking with her & I'd highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of a walker or sitter.

If and when I travel Vanessa would take care of my dog like it was her own. I am sad she moved. She is a great dog lover, do not hesitate to leave your dog with her!!!

Vanessa is the best! She helped me out on short notice, and I could tell my dog had so much fun while he was at her house. Her and her dog definitely wore Winston out, and we'll be using them again!

This was our first time using this service/site. Vanessa was awesome and took great care of our elderly dog. She followed all of our instructions and was very timely. She worked out great for us on really short notice. We would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of pet care!

Information Vanessa B. would like to know about your pet

Every dog is unique, and I do my best to cater to their particular needs. You can facilitate this by telling me all about your dog’s routines, trainings, socialization, medical needs, play preferences, and any other info you think I’ll need.

A typical day

My schedule is flexible, so we usually start each day with a walk of our own pups. During the day I take work breaks and am available on short notice!
