Lifelong dog lover ready to help!

Pet care experience

I have had many years of experience looking after friends, and neighbors dogs. I have always been a dog lover, and when I was younger for many reasons I was unable to have my own dog. So I have always deeply enjoyed building trust and showing care to the dogs I was lucky enough to be able to look after. I now have a dog of my own, Lulu a two year old Parson Russel Terrier mix. She helped me learn even more about loving and caring for dogs, and just how special of a bond there is between an owner and their dog. I raised her from when she was three months old and I also helped my sister raise her dog from when he was two months old, until very recently after we decided to live on our own. Lulu and my sister’s dog are very high energy and I had to learn a lot about training and mental stimulation to be able to manage a lot of their behaviors. After many years of working as a dog sitter I provide personalized care tailored to your dogs unique personality. Whether they are high energy like my dog or calm dogs I will prioritize their safety and happiness every time I am with them!

Vanessa has forever been an animal lover. Since she was little she would love connecting with all the animals she would see especially dogs. Seeing her with her dog and their relationship over the years has shown me how in tune she is with her pet and their needs. She is an amazing dog trainer as well and has a tremendous amount of patience with dogs who may be reactive. You won’t regret your decision of choosing Vanessa as your dog walker!
