Information Vanessa D. would like to know about your pet

I am OK with going the extra mile with your dog. I don’t have experience with special needs dogs, but I’m willing to learn. I will let you know if I feel unable to fulfill their needs

A typical day

We will start with a morning walk. I have a dog park in my area so midday we would go play fetch there. Followed by an evening walk.

Pet care experience

I was a Chihuahua mom for 15 years until April 2025. I will treat your pup like a prince/princess. I have knowledge on how to administer pills to senior dogs. Right after Christmas 2025, I rescued a male chihuahua. He is barely a year old & a very happy boy. He loves all dogs, so if you board with me your fur child will make a new friend.

Vanessa was an awesome dog sitter. My dog got sick day one and was ill for 5 days. She took detailed care of all her needs and gave my dog medicine once I was able to get her to the vet. Maggie has never enjoyed being with a sitter so much. Vanessa is very caring and loving with dogs.

A Truly Exceptional Pet Sitter & Walker! I cannot recommend Vanessa highly enough! With years of experience and a heart full of compassion, she is everything you could ever want in someone caring for your pets. From the very first meeting, it’s clear that she doesn’t just love animals—she understand them. Vanessa has been reliable, patient, and genuinely devoted to my pet’s well-being. Whether it’s a walk around the neighborhood or an overnight stay, I always know my furry family member is in the best hands. She treats my pet as if they were her own—with love, attentiveness, and the utmost care. What sets her apart is her ability to read and respond to each pet’s individual needs. My pet is always excited to see her and comes home happy, calm, and well-exercised. She communicate clearly, send updates and photos, and goes the extra mile without being asked. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pet like family, Vanessa is the one. Trustworthy, experienced, and full of heart—simply the best!
