Pet care experience

Love is an open “doggy” door

Animals have been in my life for as long as I can remember, I have a deep rooted appreciation for all animals and reptiles. I have personally cared for and fostered many dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, rabbits & reptiles throughout my life. I have experience administering medication to pets and assisting pets with disabilities including, Blindness, Deaf, dementia, and diabetes. I know how much these animals must mean to you as they mean to me, and I promise to look after them with the upmost care and respect that is possible.

Vanessa was a dream pet sitter. She loves our babies and took such great care of them! She has become a part of the family and we will definitely have her watch our pets again.

Vanessa is an amazing person. She gives above and beyond care in watching over our fur family members when we are away. Thank you Vanessa for always taking care of Daisy and when Max was around.

Vanessa made sure our dogs had plenty of play time during her drop in visits which helps reduce the anxiety of one of our pups. Highly recommend and will use her services again.

Vanessa did an outstanding job once again! She took great care of our dogs and sent us some really great pictures of them too. Because we knew they were in good hands, we could relax and focus on the wedding we were attending. She is also very courteous and respects our house. We will be booking Vanessa again in the future!

If they have any specific circumstances that may make them uncomfortable (loud noises, cars, etc) it is important to specify with me please and tell me what could increase their stress! Any routines, strict diets, certain rules, past aggression, or known allergies please tell me in advance so we do our best to avoid any issues and/ or possible injury to your pet.
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.
