I have a fenced yard for the pets, I love to snuggle up and play, and I tend to build emotional bonds with pets easily

Information Vanessa R. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know how they are with other dogs or cats. I would also like to know if they're spayed or neutered. I'm a bit skeptical of aggressive mannered dogs, so that would be something I'd like to have a heads up of beforehand. I'm good with all breeds, but have had bad experiences with german shepards and pitbulls.

A typical day

I like to take dogs to the dog parks around my house, as well as to the beach when it’s nice out. Sometimes we can even go on car rides if they like!

Fun, loving animal buddy!

Pet care experience

I have grown up with animals my whole life and I love them more than humans. I’m a cat girl at heart, but I haven’t met a dog I didn’t like. I love to play, walk, and teach tricks. I have a dog of my own named Pebbles; he is a Pom x Havanese and loves to play! I also have a cat named Miso, he was a covid stray I decided to keep. Super lovable and likes to play. I'm pretty good with training dogs, especially ones that are food motivated. I love taking dogs on walks and I'll tend to any needs a dog requires.

Vanessa is awesome, this is my third time having her look after my cat. She truly cares for him and I know he’s well looked after.

Vanessa was great with my cat, Cairo. 10/10 would book with her again!

Vanessa did a great job of taking care of my cat. I loved seeing the photos each day and it seemed like he was very friendly towards her and appreciated the company. She used the time each day to brush him and play with him which gave me peace of mind to know he wasn't just sleeping or hiding the whole time I was away. Vanessa also vacuumed a little bit and brought in a package for me that was left outside which wasn't necessary to do but was greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
