Pawsitive Animal Lover

I am truly passionate about animals—they are my world and never fail to brighten my day! 🐾 I offer training, walking, and sitting services for your beloved pets. With over 15 years of experience caring for animals, I bring both unconditional love and strong expertise in behavior management when needed. Whether it’s walking, running, training, socializing, cuddling, or providing mental stimulation, I’ll make sure your pet’s needs are fully met. I’m also experienced in administering medications and can do so with care and ease. My favorite moments are spent going on walks and relaxing with dogs at home. I’m very excited to meet your furry family members and spend quality time with them. Looking forward to connecting, Vanessa I have an extensive photo library showcasing many of the different breeds I’ve worked with.

Hi I just want to say a big thank you to Vanessa! I gave her very short notice, due to my home being sold, to look after my dog Riggz as our back yard was super muddy and it was his first time away from home and he absolutely loved her! She brought him on walks, sent me beautiful pics and videos everyday and made the whole experience stress free! He had super fun with her dogs and got to socialize! Thank you so much! Nina and Riggz! p.s. I know who to contact if I need a pet sitter!

This was the first time I have left my dogs with anyone and I could not have been happier. Vanessa was kind and welcoming with them and sent me tons of pictures to settle my worried heart. I will be using her in the future for any of my dog needs !

Vanessa took fantastic care of my dog. She is definitely an animal lover. She’ll be the first person I contact next time I need a dog sitter. Venessa went above and beyond, I had mentioned to her my pup likes to play outside in snow during winters. She made sure he got to go out enough to the enjoy the snow. She treated him like a family. Highly recommend.

Vanessa is wonderful. She's like a young dog whisperer. She has a way with animals that's quite impressive. She's kind but firm. Charlie loves her and looks forward to her visits and walks. She has an older small dog and a big puppy and wants more! I have full confidence in Vanessa and you can too. I highly recommend her.

Vanessa est une personne très attentionnée. Elle possède deux chiens depuis très longtemps. Elle a gardé mon chien pendant 2 mois et quand je suis revenu, elle lui avais appris donner la patte et à rouler sur lui même. Elle est une passionnée des animaux et de la nature c’est donc pourquoi je vous la recommande fortement comme gardienne de chien!
