Pet care experience

I love being a dog mom.

I currently have a Yorkie/Silk Terrier we adopted 4 years ago and love him as if he was my child. I’m at stay at home step mom with one teenage daughter who doesn’t require much from me and enjoy giving most of my time to my dog. I’m available most weekdays and weeknights and 50 percent of weekends. I’ve made the step in joining Rover because I would love to help others in providing a great experience to other dog owners with a peace of mind that their loved one is in good hands. In my home I treat my dog like a family member and I can assure you I will do the same with yours. Dogs are truly man’s best friend. They make the world a better place.

Vanessa was amazing. Or fur baby has a few issues and she took really good care of him. She kept us informed with messages and photos. We will definitely be using her services again.

Vanessa is the best! I only trust her with my fur babies. When you meet Vanessa you can tell she really has a passion for dogs. With that comes a peace of knowing you can trust her to really take good care of your pet. I recommend her to all my friends.

Vanessa has took care of our 3 dogs on multiple occasions when my family has gone out of town. She is caring, loving, attentive, nurturing & always keeps me informed via text with what is going on while we are away. She even sends me pics! My 3 dogs used to stay at a local pet resort when we would go out of town, they would come home nervous, anxious and would pick at their food while we were away. The first time Vanessa watched our pups, when we got home from our trip, My family noticed a huge difference in their behavior and overall demeanor. Vanessa is a true dog lover who is responsible, trustworthy and kind. I never worry when she watches them. I’m so glad I found Vanessa!

Pets

A typical day

I have all sorts of toys to play fetch with them and if the weather permits would also walk them in my neighborhood. Once I get to know the dog and they feel comfortable with me I enjoy cuddle time and just giving them attention.

0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Vanessa can host up to 2 pets per night
I don’t want to sit for any aggressive breeds and prefer breeds no more than 15 pounds. I don’t have any preferences on breed but do want a dog that has been house trained and is up to date on vaccinations.
