Vanessa did a nice job taking care of our dogs and a cat who isn't always nice. She even cared for 2 guinea pigs and a snake while we were gone. Next time I will make sure to write down additional care info for the animals not in the app so it is easier for her to remember the care for them. We were pleased when we came to our home and loved that she meet and took time interacting with our pets before our trip.
