Information Vanessa G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any sensitive issues I should be aware of prior to meeting with you and your pets. I definitely understand that change can be a difficult adjustment for some babies and I want to be sure to give them the space and attention to be comfortable with a new person in their life.

A typical day

I love to learn from your fur babies how they want to be stimulated and how they want me to show up for them. Of course I love walks and fetch, but sometimes they want to be cuddled and snuggled, and I’m here for that!

Archie stayed with Vanessa while we were on vacation and he did so well! He absolutely loves staying with her, and we always feel at ease knowing he’s in great hands

Vanessa went above and beyond to show Grigio the love and attention that he needed. I had absolutely no worries or concerns that he was being well taken care of while we were gone. What a relief and blessing to have her!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
