Active home for your bundle of fur!

Pet care experience

Hello fur parents! My name is Vanessa, and I am an experienced pet sitter and loving pet owner. Having been surrounded by cats and dogs my entire life, I know that every pet has different needs and its own personality! I have had many experiences as a pet owner and can manage a number of situations, whether that's snuggling on the couch, taking long walks, or even practicing some light training. I have experience with small kittens and puppies as well as your run-of-the-mill couch potato. I also have experience with high-energy dogs who may have some anxiety that comes out in the form of aggression. I know this happens sometimes from my own experiences, and am comfortable mediating situations should your pup start to show signs. I work from home so have the flexibility to come to your home and spend quality time with your fur baby. As long as you tell me what your pet needs, I'll make sure it gets done!

Vanessa is so compassionate. She went above and beyond to care for my puppy. Not only does she have exceptional experience in caring for animals, but has been very flexible with my hectic work schedule. If you want undivided attention and love for your animal, look no further than Vanessa!

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs will always be on a leash when out of your home/yard. Since I'll be watching your pet in your home, it will be vital for me to know if they need to be monitored at any point while in or out of the house.

Information Vanessa H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any feeding instructions, special needs, and mannerisms to be aware of in your home or out in public. If your dog would like some interaction with another dog, I don't mind bringing my dog over for a play date. I would be sure to monitor all playtime and ensure that our dog's temperaments match.

A typical day

I love taking long walks and having interactive playtime in your spaces. Exploring local neighborhoods and trails is always great. There will also never be a shortage of treats if your pet is allowed to indulge!
