I usually don't like to leave reviews, but i just HAD to for Vanessa! She was so amazing and really helped me in a bind. I had a death in the family, and had to fly to Texas that same day. Not only did I need someone to watch my toy fox terrier Gabi, I also was looking for someone to watch my house(it was brutally cold that week and I was scared of the pipes freezing). I contacted Vanessa who returned my inquiry very quickly, and was so pleased with her positive and helping nature. She assured me she would be able to come watch Gabi that same day. She arrived within 2 hours and Gabi and her hit it off at once! Seeing how helpful she was I asked if Vanessa would be willing to watch my house, as well. We agreed over the terms and I was on my way to Texas. Vanessa kept me in the loop the whole time, sending me picture texts of Gabi, letting me know she was dripping the faucets to keep the pipes from freezing, etc. When I arrived home Gabi was so pooped it gave me time to rest after a stress filled few days. Vanessa even left me a sorry for your loss card! She went above and beyond and I just had to share my experience with her. I would totally recommend her if you need someone to watch your furry kids!
