Pet care experience

I love taking dogs on walks/runs!

Hi, my name is Vanessa. I am currently in school and training for a marathon, but I am always available. I love staying active. I'm excited to be introduced into Rover dog-boarding/dog sitting for the opportunity to work with variety of pets. I am animal-loving person and also a proud owner of 13 year old pitbull. My love for animals motivated me to provide helping hand for those who are in need to care their loving pets. I am willing to negotiate to meet the need for you and your pets. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to be in service for you and your pets! Thank you for visiting my page and I can’t wait to meet your loved fur babies! (If you need me to take your dog on runs, I'm more than happy to!)

Vanessa was terrific and easy to coordinate with. It’s clear she loves animals and is quick to learn their ways. She did a great jobs and I will definitely rebook with her in the future.

I am so glad we found Vanessa!! She is amazing with our senior pup. We have been booking with her for walks weekly and she is super communicative and reliable, always sends sweet photos, and is extremely trustworthy. I don’t know what we would do without her!

So grateful to have found Vanessa on here! Super reliable, very communicative and always takes lots of pics. My schedule is very inconsistent and she always quick to respond and be flexible with what I need.

I would like to know how well your dog gets along with other dogs. Although it would not be an issue if your dog prefers to be alone. No breed preferences.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
