Pet care experience

Divas & Darlings❤️🐾❤️

My specialty is small dogs, but I will keep medium size dogs, as long as they do well with small dogs. If you are afraid of leaving your small fur baby with large dogs, then I'm the sitter for you. I will treat your small fur baby just like my own with lots of tender loving care! I am married (to Bob) and have two adult boys whom have families of their own. I have always loved dogs since I was a young child. I have 2 adorable little Yorkies (Daisy & Kaleesi). I often get accused of treating them better than my grown children. LOL! They are true Divas! I understand the needs that a small dog may require. They often love a lap to lay on and nice warm cozy spaces. I have a good size yard with a fence that keeps little dogs in, so your fur baby will get adequate outdoor fun time. Come join the pack, and let me care and love on your sweet fur baby! Note: Fees are based on a 24 hour period. For Example: If drop off is at 9 a.m., pickup should be 9 a.m. on the day of pickup. Otherwise, an additional boarding/daycare rate will apply. The earliest drop off time is 6 a.m., and the latest pickup time is 6 p.m. Any exceptions are subject to the extended stay rate.

Vanessa took great care of our dog, Piper! This was our second time booking with her, and we were just as happy as the first. It’s clear that Piper is comfortable with her, and we had peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Vanessa is reliable, communicative, and genuinely attentive. We’ll definitely continue booking with her in the future! Thank you, Vanessa!

Vanessa has watched our dogs multiple times and always does a great job! She sends us regular updates and pictures. The dogs are also very excited when they arrive to her house at drop off!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and two little Diva Yorkies for playtime. I offer care based on your pet’s needs. I take my job very serious and my desire is for the owners to feel confident that their pets are in a loving and safe environment!

Pets

A typical day

We will have fun times fetching toys and mingling with other small fur babies. Your fur baby will get to enjoy the great outdoors, several times a day (weather permitting), in our backyard with a fence designed to keep little dogs inside. They will always be supervised. I have a potty pad area inside for the dogs to potty on, as well as taking them outside. I also have experience administering medications.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Vanessa can host up to 15 pets per night
I would like to know about your dog's temperament, eating, and potty habits, as well as any special needs and any medication taken, etc. Also, you will need to provide a copy of your dogs current vaccinations.
