Pet care experience

Caring and responsable animal lover

Hi, I'm Vanessa. I'm a true animal lover who cares for them as part of my family. I have years of experience in caring for my own and other pets. I love dogs all size and breed. I am used to taking care of dogs with different background. I'm very passionate about helping dogs in shelters. Throughout the years, I've gained experience with a lot of medication and special needs in dogs. I have experience administering meds and I'm very aware of dog's behaviors.

Sharkee was very well taken care of by Vanessa and her mom. I would definitely have her watch him again if I’m back in Atlanta and need a dog sitter.

Abbey had a great time with Vanessa during our 10 day trip, and she sent us picture regularly so we could see Abbey living her best life!

Vanessa was great! The dogs looked like they were having a blast the whole time, which is all you want for your fur babies when you miss them on vacation. Vanessa sent pics and photos and was a good communicator.

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how difficult it can be to leave fur babies and how much they mean to your family. I am determined to provide the best possible care and fulfill all their daily needs. I will always be in consistent contact and keep you updated with details of their routine during our amazing time together.

A typical day

Furry friends can expect lots of activity, attention, cuddles and love throughout their stay in my home. Around my neighborhood, I have a lot of walking pathways and dog parks. My home is full of cozy places to rest and relax after long walks or play session in dog parks.

In my home, I provide a comfortable, safe, loving environment for the pets I care for. Please let me know about your pet routine. This includes medications, allergy, potty and feeding routine, leash training, housebroken or any triggers. I have a XL crate in my house if your dog is crate trained, if not, your fur baby is welcomed to snuggle with me on the couch. Feel free to bring any item that would make your pups stay more enjoyable.
