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 fantastic with my precious dog, Leo. I usually take him everywhere with me, including when I travel, but wasn’t able to this time and she took such great care of him. It made a huge difference in me being able to enjoy my time away without worrying and without my little guy by my side, knowing he was so well taken care of and loved. Vanessa is a great communicator and sent tons of photos, which I really appreciated. Her dog Kenzo is also super sweet. Highly recommend

Doggy Day Care • May 28, 2026

Vanessa is quite literally the best! I was in a huge bind and needed someone to watch my two large dogs very last minute while in the midst of the chaos of a cross country move and she went above and beyond to take care of my dogs within a couple of hours of me contacting her. One of my dogs was even sick during their stay and she was so caring and helpful making sure he was okay as well as following up after the fact to make sure they were safe/doing well! She also provided photos and updates throughout the stay which as a pet parent when bringing your dogs to a new place is always appreciated. I would highly recommend Vanessa to care for your pets if you want to leave them with someone who is compassionate, responsible and trustworthy :) ty so so much!

Vanessa was so great with Bento and Ada. She sent pictures of them regularly. They looks very happy, and they had a lot of fun with her dog Kenzo. Her apartment is clean and her communication is great. Highly recommend, we will definitely be back!

Vanessa was an amazing rover for our dog Chico! Lots of photos, long walks, and activities to keep him busy. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive and active rover. Thank you again!!

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.
