I would love make your pets happy!

Pet care experience

I have been raised with dogs and cats my whole life. I used to volunteer at a local animal shelter when I was younger to walk dogs so I have experiences with different sizes. I also have worked as a house cleaner for 10+ years, where I see all different kinds of dog breeds daily. Clients would ask us to let their dogs out, some clients occasionally had me take them outside on a quick walk. Some people we cleaned for would have me pet sit/walk their dogs. I would watch dogs in the clients home. I may not have years of experience but I have always been passionate about caring for animals and would love to have an opportunity to gain more experience. I am trustworthy and organized and would love to get to know your pet!

Vanessa has been caring for my pets for years. She is so sweet and caring to them! She treats them like her own, and I know they are always in the best of hands when they are with her.

I have known Vanessa for a very long time now and she is one of the most avid dog lovers I know. She has owned many different dogs throughout her life and has always put the dogs needs as a number 1 priority. She also encountered many dogs in her past place workplace with cleaning houses, this way she encountered many different dog breeds of all shapes and sizes and loved every single one with same over the top adoration. Any person lending their dog to Vanessa should truly know that she going to respect and love your dog as if you have never left. Vanessa is the ideal dog sitter not only because of her immense love for dogs but for the caring and responsible individual that she is.

Vanessa is both my roommate and a close friend. I can attest that she is incredibly responsible, kind, trustworthy, and organized. She is a wonderful hard worker at whatever she puts her mind to, and is an excellent student as well. I would trust her with almost anything, including my dog! (if I had one)

Safety, trust & environment

In my home my pets have always been a top priority. I make sure I give them the treatment that is most applicable to their breed. I believe pets need to socialize just like us and deserve a lot of love and attention, they will never be neglected in my care! To me, a pet is a part of the family and may as well be another sibling!

Information Vanessa D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is shy around other dogs/around different ages of people so I can account for this. If your dog comes to my house it will be spending time around people in their 20s, no children will be around.

A typical day

I live in an area where there is an abundance of trails around me that are great for dog walking. We have dog toys in the house and if the owner is okay with it there is a dog park nearby that I could bring pets to. I like to go on walks/runs so if your dog is higher energy and would do well with running I can do that.
