Safety, trust & environment

I will ensure the upmost safety and comfort for the pets in your home. Whether that involves a crate or many hours of outdoor play, I am flexible.

Information Vanessa D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time if your pet has any medication I would need to give them. I would also like to know any specific eating or bathroom habits they have so I could know what is normal and abnormal for your pet.

A typical day

I love hiking as a fun way to allow a dog to experience the world around them and to tire them out. I consider different levels of exercise and exploration depending on the ability and needs of a dog.

Pet care experience

I have grown up in an animal filled house and I am especially good with reactive and shy shelter pets. All three of my animals were adopted from difficult environments and I understand the patience needed to attend to them. Two of my animals are high energy dogs and I am conscious of how much work it takes to tire them out.
