I currently live in a two-story townhouse and there is an outdoor fenced area. If I were to provide care for your pet, I would like to know what works best typically for your pet and see how that would work best in my home. If I provide services your house, I would love to know more about the routine that your pet is currently in so that I can fit into their schedule.

Pet care experience

Hi everyone! I grew up on a small farm in the Midwest where I took care of our animals, including horses, dogs, cats, chickens, etc. I moved to Los Angeles for school and recently have lost my 18 year-old American Eskimo dog due to cancer. I am looking for this opportunity to provide a few extra bucks, but also provide a way for me to fill the void in my heart, as I have a passion for taking care of animals and having them in my life. With my past experience and my passion for animals, I hope that it is clear that I will take care of your pets to YOUR standards and do what is best to provide the care that they need.

Vanessa was wonderful and took the best care of my cat while away. Her flexibility was invaluable. Will for sure be rebooking in the future!

We had a great experience with Vanessa. She was very communicative and sent us pictures and updates during the stay. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her.

Vanessa is very responsive and I appreciate her flexible availability. My dogs loved her company. She is very calm and patient with the dogs. I highly recommend her services.

Vanessa was great with my kitten Millie! She followed all instructions, and made me feel very comfortable when I was away. Highly recommend!
