Pet care experience

Hybrid schedule - love all pets

I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember. Currently I have Eevee, a one year old corgi who is the light of my life. In my home country, I’ve worked for a non-profit rescue where we took care and rehomed stray and abandoned animals. I’ve taken care from puppies and kittens to seniors, and I’m comfortable with taking care of wounds, administering medication and cleaning litter boxes.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a corgi named Eevee who would love to spend some time with your furry friends chasing after them and being silly. We do not have a fenced backyard but we do have access to a fenced dog park which is mainly desert — I bring Eevee there every day for her unleashed sniff time and play.

Venessa is great as always! She takes a big interest in playing with my cats when I’m gone and takes amazing photos that make me miss my pets! Thank you!

Vanessa was great with Xiao Guai! She was communicative, attentive, and went above and beyond what we originally agreed to. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals. Would definitely book her again!

Vanessa did a wonderful job of taking care of our cats while we were out of town. Also cleaned up after one of my cat. Very thorough at her work and provided a timely care.

Vanessa is so genuine and kind. She spoiled our cat during her visit which made me feel less bad about having to travel for work. I know Pesho will love to have Vanessa come back in the future.

Schedule

I have a pretty flexible schedule which allows me to spend lots of time with your furry friends. I love all pets and know we’ll go along well - I had cats, dogs, parakeets and turtles growing up and I think I’m very attuned to how pets are feeling.

Please let me know ahead of time of any medical issues your fur friend may have, their potty/feeding schedule, and any triggers they may have. Other important things to know are how they react to other dogs and to being approached by strangers.
