Hi there! I grew up on a farm and as a child I had different kinds of pets, but mostly dogs. Right now my husband and I have a Yorkie. We've had him for 11 years. My love for dogs has grown over the years! When your dog is in my care I will take care of him or her as if it was my own fur child! I like to reward dogs every time they perform good behavior. If you let me know what works for your dog (as far as commands) I will make sure to use them. I want to make your dogs' stay as comfortable as possible. I want to make him or her feel like they are at home.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 16, 2024

Vanessa was so accommodating with my long hours and weekend schedule. Oscar was happy to be dropped off every morning and exhausted when I picked him up. Would definitely recommend!

Our dog stayed with Vanessa for two weeks, and I would give her a 6-star review if I could. She sent pictures and videos each day to let us know how he was doing. I would recommend Vanessa to anyone and everyone looking for someone to help with their dog.

I was so nervous leaving my dog with a sitter for the first time. After messaging with Vanessa, my fears were put at ease! After meeting her, I felt 100% confident my little dog, Cricket, was with a loving, caring, and knowledgable caretaker. By the time I got home from our initial drop-off, Vanessa had already messaged me photos of Cricket enjoying a walk and loving their time together. During Cricket's stay, I received daily updates, pics, and even videos. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that my beloved pet was in such wonderful hands. I look forward to booking stays with Vanessa again! She is truly amazing!!!

Vanessa was a really great dog sitter for my furbaby Chopper (yorkie). Chopper is very fearful of new humans but when I explained his character to Vanessa I could tell that she was listening and really cared. As a pet parent I can definitely tell between a sitter that cares about the well-being of your dog versus one that just does it as a job. Vanessa was super great with giving Chopper his medicine since he was sick during his stay with her. She was very communicative and sent pictures everyday which was great. I feel safe leaving Chopper in Vanessa's watch and hope to keep booking her in the future!
