Highlights
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.

Reliable and great with my dog!

Theo seemed like he enjoyed his walk, he was very chill when he got back. Great experience booking with Vanessa!

Vanessa took wonderful care of our cats while we were away for two weeks. She was always on time, incredibly responsive, and kept us updated with detailed report cards after every visit. It was obvious from the photos and updates that our cats were comfortable, well cared for, and genuinely loved by her, they looked like they were having a great time! She also went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and helping with a few small requests around the house, which we really appreciated. Knowing everything was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. We highly recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy cat sitter!


Vanessa made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup with her this week. I got regular updates and I could tell my dog had a fulfilling time at her place. Will definitely be using her in the future!

Vanessa was great! Incredibly responsive and nice. Very accommodating when we had to make a last minute change to our pickup day/time. Would definitely have her watch our pups again!


Since my dog returned to me, she hasn't shown any signs of being hurt, sad or angry. She has a good appetite and is very energetic, so I believe she had wonderful time with Vanessa. Vanessa texted me about the dog's condition every day with pictures, which allowed us to travel with peace of mind. Thank you so much. I look forward to working with you again next time.

Calendar and availability
Schedule
I’m currently in my last semester of law school and I am relatively free. I will be working from home, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. These would be the best days for me to routinely provide pet care for you.

Home characteristics
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.
