Pet care experience

Local pet sitter!

I have owned cats and dogs my whole life, of all ages. I have been taking care of other people’s animals for the past 2 years, and it’s honestly been such an amazing experience, seeing how grateful owners are that their babies are taken care of, and seeing how happy the pet is to have someone to play with or cuddle with.

Safety, trust & environment

I have clients who have pets who have never been alone before, and anytime they need to leave the house I’ll go over and sit with them, feed them, walk them if necessary. But it gives them a lot of peace of mind that their baby is not anxious with them gone, and is well taken care of.

I have been using Vanessa as a dog walker since January. My dog is always so happy to see her and give her lots of kisses. She is very reliable and I know she will always take good care of my baby. She goes above and beyond. She even carried my dog up and down 3 flights of stairs 3xs a day for a week because the elevator went down in my building.

Vanessa cared for my dog while I was out running errands. She gave my dog plenty of attention, exercise, and fresh water. I came home to a happy relaxed pup and had complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Vanessa for dependable and caring pet sitting.

Vanessa has pet sat my cats on several occasions. She is very attentive, playing with them and knowing what they want. She also has a calming effect on them when they approach for affection. She always shows up, right on time and does a great job. I never have to worry about my precious little ones.

“I mentioned to a friend of mine I could use some help walking my dog. She gave me Vanessa’s name. We have been using Vanessa on a regular basis for about a year. Vanessa is reliable, has been there in all types of weather, and most importantly loves my dog! I would highly recommend Vanessa to take care of your pet!"​

I have been using Vanessa now for a while to sitwith my two Havanese dogs and she is the best pet sitter I’ve ever come across. One of my Havanese loves her just like he loves me. He gives her lots of kisses and just loves her to death. She’s really good. She follows any instructions you have for the pets but the thing I like about her the most is my pets are never stressed out when I get back from a few hours of being gone, so it just completely eases my mind to know that there’s somebody like Vanessa out there that can watch my pets. Give her a try. You won’t be disappointed.
