Taking care of pets since day 1

Pet care experience

I have always lived with cats and dogs. I currently do not have a dog for the simple reason that my current living and working situation is not ideal to be a full time dog mom. However, I do have one cat which seems to be very happy with the apartment life. She is very friendly and is used to living with dogs and other cats. Taking care of dogs has always been something I strongly enjoy doing and we have always had a family dog. Don't tell my parents, but the best part about going to visit them is seeing the dog.

Vanessa was great. She sent us updates daily and took care of our rather large dog without a complaint. I would recommend her to anyone.

Vanessa is so nice and responsible. We received updates of pictures and text about our doge (yes a Shibainu) on a daily basis! She is a very patient host and easy to communicate. We feel our pet is very safe and we are really happy the whole time that we’ve found her to take care of Aqua while we are out of town. We trust her and definitely will go to her again. Recommend!

She was super sweet and made sure to send me daily texts/picture updates! Lloyd looked happy when I picked him up. Highly recommend :)

We were glad that we found someone like Vanessa amd her boyfriend to take care of our dog. She sent us photos of Maui while we were gone and we can see how our boy are having a great time with them. They were very flexible as well and communication was amazing! When we got Maui back, he sure was tired when we got home which was a good thing lol. Highly recommend them and would surely book with them again in the future and recommend friends who needed a sitter! A+++
