Pet care experience

Caring for your pet is an honor

I grew up in a family that always included at least one dog member and now am excited to have my own. I currently have an exuberant 85 lb rescue named Copper, but growing up my family has had everything from a dachshund to an Alaskan malamute - any size or personality - I would love the opportunity to brighten your pets day with a visit or excursion. As an avid dog and nature lover it would be my pleasure to help your furry friend stretch their legs and breathe in the many smells of the great outdoors. With so many area parks to explore it will not only be excellent exercise, but great mental and social stimulation as well. I work from home and can be flexible with your pets needs. In addition to plenty of outdoor time throughout the day, I take at least one daily longer walk with my dog Copper at an area park (Round Valley, Voorhees, Spruce Run, etc) that we would love to share with your pet. Copper is very friendly and happy to make new dog friends, but of course we will schedule a time for our dogs to meet before the stay and make sure everyone is getting along well.

Vanessa took wonderful care of Carson! He got to enjoy two walks a day and play time with other dogs. He had a great “vacation” at her house! She was very responsive and kept us up to date with pictures throughout his stay. We would definitely use Vanessa again!

My husband and I needed a sitter in relatively short notice for our wedding. Our pups mean the world to us and we are so thankful to have found Vanessa. During an already stressful time with wedding planning she made us feel at ease and the girls loved her! We will definitely be repeat clients ?

Vanessa is great! She’s super reliable, communicative and thorough in her reporting. Our pups are in good hands when she’s with them.

My poor Cooper had pretty bad separation anxiety cutting his visit short, Vanessa and her husband were patient and tried to be as accommodating as the situation allowed. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Vanessa was so awesome. If I could give her more stars I would. She took Dro on nature walks and let him play outside with her loving dog. Dro seemed to have so much fun while with Vanessa and her family. I highly highly highly recommend her! ?

I would like to know what life is like for your dog at home, so I can make them as comfortable as possible in my home. Whether it is special games they like to play, way and times they get fed, treats they enjoy, or where they like to sleep. My goal is to make the stay as fun and comfortable for your pet as possible, so you can rest easy on your travels.
