Animal lover extraordinaire

Pet care experience

I have taken care of numerous animals since I was eight. Family, friends, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I have watched animals grow from babies to adults. I’ve always felt that pets are part of the family and should be treated as such I do client therapy sessions throughout my days, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur babies! I love that it helps keep me active I adapt to any environment I am put in and utilize what is around me when needed to play or train accordingly based on need

Vanessa is great! I had to leave my diabetic cat for a week and was very nervous as this was the first time I had to trust someone outside of my family to give my cat insulin injections, twice a day. Vanessa came over for a meet n greet before I booked her so that me and my cat could meet her and she could give an insulin injection. She was great and I felt very comfortable leaving my cat in her hands for the week. Not everyone can give insulin injections, but Vanessa has the skill and I highly recommend her!

Vanessa is phenomenal. We have 3 dogs and they all love her and are at ease around her. She spends extra time ensuring they have play time and plenty of pets. We receive videos and pictures daily. All 3 of our dogs have special requirements and Vanessa easily accommodates their needs.

Vanessa was wonderful. She sent me pictures of my dog, which was greatly appreciated as he’s rather old and I was anxious to leave him. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her.

Pet sitting is currently my full time job along with being a caregiver. I have one client I do varying times with so that allows for all my free time to be given to your fur baby throughout the week. I love that it helps keep me active
