WFH Techie w/ friendly Aussie 🐶

I’ve been around dogs my whole life and now have a 5 yr old Aussie who keeps me on my toes! I love being around dogs. I know how much pets mean to their parents, and I'll make sure they’re happy, relaxed, and having fun while you’re away.

Vanessa was a fantastic sitter, communicative/responsive with us and sent frequent updates. She was very flexible and helped pick our girl up from someone else who was watching her, which I really appreciated. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Mila absolutely loved her stay with Vanessa and we were very thankful that Vanessa took such good care of her. She was super communicative and made us feel at ease knowing she was safe in her care! This was our first experience leaving Mila with a sitter outside of our family and we will definitely be booking with Vanessa in the future!

Vanessa took excellent care of Biscuit. She was very communicative and he developed a solid bond with her and Kenzo in the short time that they were together. Highly recommend and would have no hesitation rebooking with Vanessa.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets like they’re part my own! I'll do everything I can to make them feel safe, comfy, and totally loved. I try to stick to their usual routine: meals, meds, walk times, because I know how much pets thrive on familiarity. My goal is to make them feel like they’re on a fun little staycation, not sad while their humans are away! If it is a puppy, I do require a crate for when I step out to work out or while they sleep. And a stain + oder spray incase of accidents.

Pets

A typical day

We'll start the day with a long walk to the park (usually Crane Cove or China Basin Park) so your dog can get some exercise, sniff around, and burn off some energy. Throughout the day, they'll get at least 4 potty breaks and plenty of attention. We'll mostly just hang out together during the day, go on walks, play fetch, and do whatever your dog enjoys. Whether that's playing, exploring, or just relaxing, they'll get lots of attention.

Before I care for any dog, I mainly like to know about any triggers, allergies, and whether they tend to get into things they shouldn't. I also like to learn about their routine, energy level, and any quirks that help them feel comfortable. The more I know about your pup, the better I can make sure they have a safe, fun, and stress-free stay while you're away.
