Pet care experience

Safe, loving care while you’re away

I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up surrounded by pets and have always had animals in my life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I often take care of my friends’ pets when they’re away, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Every pet has its own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one happy and comfortable. I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and lots of affection. I always joke that I love animals… and they usually love me right back!

Vanessa took excellent care of my dog. He took to her immediately when they met. He came home stress free. Will use Vanessa again.

Vanessa has been caring for my two energetic senior dogs (11 and 12) for over a year, and she's genuinely one of the best things to happen to me - and to them. I travel frequently, and she's always flexible, accommodating whatever I need whether that's staying at my place or hosting the dogs at hers. Both have worked seamlessly. My dogs require a specific medication routine, and Vanessa handles it without me ever having to worry. She also has a natural way with them - they fell for her instantly, which says everything. Her background working with children brings a level of patience and attentiveness that really shows with older dogs who need that extra care. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dogs like her own and go beyond the basics, I can't recommend Vanessa highly enough!

Schedule

I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule, and I also spend a good amount of time working from home. This allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I enjoy having animals around and can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine while making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.
