🏆 Loving Pet Care - WFH 🐕

Pet care experience

My volunteering at the Animal Care Center of NYC, where I cared for dogs and cats waiting for their forever homes, has given me a deep understanding of your pets' needs and behaviors. I've also cared for a wide range of pets while pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, ensuring their comfort and well-being. With two cats and a reptile in my own home, I know the importance of tailored care. My love for animals extends beyond cats, as I'm comfortable around various species, even horses due to my horseback riding experience. Your pets will be in capable and caring hands.

We loved having Vanessa! Dogs were happy and well taken care of. Vanessa followed all of our requests and answered very quickly. Went above and beyond spending her days with my babies!

Vanessa came to take care of my pup at my hotel during a work trip. She did a great job! Was always on time and even snagged some pics!

Vanessa was great for our 2 dogs with some particular and specific needs of being separated. We took a 2 week trip away which was a source of anxiety for my wife and I regarding our two large dogs. We had a group chat that Vanessa was very responsive in and gave us updates as frequently as we wanted and plenty of photos. She gave meds on time and also took care of our home while away. We highly recommend her for in house sitting! We will definitely be using her again for future pet sitting needs

Information Vanessa R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know your pet's daily routine, dietary preferences, any medical conditions or medications, behavioral quirks, and emergency contact information. Knowing the pet's favorite toys or activities and any specific house rules is also valuable. If you have shy cats, let me know of their favorite hiding spots.

A typical day

I love engaging in various fun activities with the dogs I watch. Some of these activities include playing fetch in the backyard, going for long walks in nearby parks or trails, and even arranging playdates with other friendly dogs if it's safe and approved by the owners. I always make sure to tailor the activities to the dogs' preferences and energy levels.
