Pet care experience

Pet-friendly farmgirl turned beachy

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.

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.

Safety, trust & environment

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.
