Your pets will be in great hands!

Pet care experience

My partner, Brandon, and I own an adorable 9 yr old Rhodesian Ridgeback/German Shepherd mix, Shiloh, whom I rescued 7 years ago, and a 9 month old kitten, Diesel. We also have an 11 year old daughter, Izzy. We have been assisting friends and family with their furry family members for over 10 years. We are well versed in commands and we are in excellent shape, so we have no issues handling large dogs! We would love the honor of caring for your furry family members!

Vanessa was wonderful with our dog and cat. She was very attentive and flexible with timing a meet and greet and sent great pictures of our pets twice a day while we were out of town! It was nice to know they were in good hands! Will definitely contact her next time we need a sitter for them!

Information Vanessa L. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know of any triggers (cats/cars/loud noises/people/dogs/etc) that we should be aware of as well as your pet’s temperament. We love to spoil the animals in our care so please let us know their favorite things/treats/activities so we can help your furry loved ones feel at home. We request a meet and greet to make sure we and our pups (both yours and ours) are a good fit for each other prior to booking your first visit. Please include in your message a few dates and times in the coming week that would work for you! Please also let us know if your pet has any special needs and please be sure to let us know their typical schedule as well, so that we can be sure to mirror it. We look forward to meeting you and caring for your furry loved one!

A typical day

There are several parks within walking distance of our home. We will take walks, explore all the different sights and smells, and play games like fetch or tug of war to keep your pup stimulated and help them expend their energy. We will also enjoy cuddles and lots of pets inside on big comfy couches.

Availability

We both own our own businesses. I am an esthetician, and Brandon is a general contractor so we have the flexibility to provide walks, drop in care, day care and boarding. My esthetics studio is 5 min from my home and I see clients there sun-wed, however, I usually only see 1-2 clients per day so I have flexibility those days as well. I am home Thursdays through Sat to provide daycare and boarding. Brandon works Mon-Fri but is home evenings and weekends. We are flexible though, so If you need daycare or boarding Sun-Wed just let us know and we can often accommodate!
