Vanessa was extremely attentive and loving with our puppy Hercules. I would highly recommend her for boarding services. She contacted me often to keep us updated on him and we were so happy with the care he received. We will definitely utilize her services again in the future.

Recently boarded my 2 dogs with Vanessa. C. One is a 7 year old Terrier mix, and the other a 9 year old Chihuahua. Both are rescue dogs. My dogs often don’t play well together at home, and tend to compete for attention. I was concerned how they would react to Vanessa’s playful, medium size friendly dog. So Vanessa arranged for all of to have a “meet and greet” After a few minutes and minor corrections the three were playing and socializing very. I felt very confident with Vanessa’s dog caring skills. During the 3 days of boarding she sent text updates as well as photos and videos each day from one of the parks nearby, showing the dogs getting lots of exercise and playtime. I would highly recommend Vanessa C as a great choice for next dog boarding.

Ryder loves Vanessa so much I now call her his girlfriend. She loves on him the same as I would and I don’t have to worry that he’s in the best possible hands when I’m traveling. Could not recommend Vanessa more!

Doggy Day Care • Oct 17, 2025

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Vanessa. She is possibly the best pet sitter we’ve ever had!! After ending a poor visit with another sitter early, our last minute request to Vanessa was warmly received. I could tell right away that my dog felt comfortable and happy in her presence. Dulce was wagging her nubbin nonstop and was eager to see Vanessa at drop off. My dog had tons of playtime, healthy treats, and lots of love. Booking Vanessa is the best choice!

Vanessa sat our 2 small dogs, Kody & Sia for a little over a week. It was our first time using a sitter so we weren’t sure what to expect but the experience with Vanessa definitely set the bar high for us! She’s friendly, easy to communicate with, kept us updated, and was attentive to our dogs’ needs. We also love her dedication to taking the dogs on daily walks, along with park visits! Not to mention, her sweet dog Olson is easy going and willing to share his boiled chicken! We would recommend & we look forward to Vanessa sitting our dogs again in the near future!

We prefer small to medium dogs that are fixed and are house trained. Low to medium energy, good with other animals. Olson likes to cuddle.
