House Sitting • Jun 14, 2026

Vanessa was a wonderful companion for my baby Livy while I was out of town. She stayed in my home with my girl & provided the love, safety & security we needed. Livy absolutely loved her. Livy even slept in bed with her the first night while I was still home! I'd never left Livy with anyone but family previously. I didn't worry about my baby or my house. I won't hesitate to ask Vanessa again to watch my girl. I will happily recommend Vanessa for anyone needing her services.

Safety, trust & environment

I will follow any instructions given by client! For any day services and walks I will treat your pet as if they were my own!

A typical day

Your dog will be stimulated physically and mentally! We will play plenty of games during their visit and go on walks. I have a pond with a mile long trail in my apartment complex that your pets will love! I love running so if your dog is someone with a lot of energy that needs to run a few miles to get that energy out I am up for the task!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs and how to accommodate for them properly. Please provide any medication schedule that I need to follow to ensure your fur baby is feeling their best during their stay.
