Loving Sitter with a Fenced Yard

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs of all ages. Friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets for many years now. My kids now share that experience and love running around with energetic puppies and cuddling with the older animals. I currently work full time but am available on the weekends, holidays, and certain weekdays. We go on walks and visit the dog park daily. I have a big fenced in backyard and 1 fur baby that loves making friends and playing with other dogs. We enjoy games of fetch and tug-o-war and do light training.

Norman stay with Mike and Vanessa went very well. We were in a bind as to find a sitter without doing a meet and greet due to living in Ohio. They graciously took my word on Norman's temperament with children, people dogs. I felt that Norman was taken care of, and his needs were met during his stay there.

Vanessa and her Family did an outstanding job of taking care of my 2 huskies for the 6 days and nights when I was traveling..... I will definitely be using her services in the near future. Thank you for your love for dogs. John S.

Vanessa went over and above. She took great care of our cat, let her outside for supervised time, amd sent very cute photos of a very happy cat. Highly recommended. Thanks, Vanessa!

Our dogs were super well cared for and seemed very happy with Vanessa! It is so comforting to have them be happy while away from us.
