Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I create a calm, secure, and pet-friendly environment tailored to their needs. I follow routines closely, keep a clean and hazard-free space, and always treat pets with kindness, patience, and respect. I take trust seriously; communicating clearly, sharing regular updates, and making sure you feel confident that your furry friend is in caring, capable hands at all times.

We have had Vanessa watch our dog multiple times and she is always reliable, communicative, and easy to work with! Juniper loves having her around.

Tucker had a great time with Vanessa and her family! She was very communicative and he was nice and wore out when we got him back😂 5 ⭐️

There are very few that I would leave my sweet babies to, but Vanessa and Tate would be at the top of the list. Vanessa is so organized, loving, and always educating herself to keep up. I highly recommend her.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to adjust my schedule around appointments and stays. I’m used to juggling responsibilities- between my own cats and kids in youth sports, I’ve mastered the art of time management and staying on top of routines. Because I already care for animals at home, I understand how important consistency, communication, and attention to detail are. I make caring for each pet part of my day like second nature, always ensuring they get the quality time and attention they deserve.
