Furbabies are equal to human babies
Pet care experience
Hello! Vanessa and my husband Bruce here with our adoring two dogs and cat. From a very young age, I've always cared about animals. I’ve grown up with dogs and invested much of my time training them and giving them lots of attention and care during my childhood years. When I watch your furbabies, it is done with full attention and deep care. I am able to monitor and read your pet’s behaviors and modify their environment to ensure they are comfortable, satisfied and having fun! Family and friends have asked me to dog-sit for them starting at an early age of 8. I've always had a bond with all pets. Maybe I was a dog in my previous life ;) My husband has also grown up with dogs and is the best fur-father I’ve ever seen (why do you think I married him?!) He gives so much love to all of our furbabies and your furbabies! We are a fur-family of positive and fun vibes only! Dogs with aggressive behaviors are not welcome as we have our own pets and their comfort and safety always comes first. We require meet and greets prior to a stay where we will monitor how your dog(s) interact with our dogs. We have a large, mellow and super friendly Yellow Lab mix dog (Toby); a contagiously happy and playful 3 legged Australian Blue Heeler dog (Angus) and a perfect balance of sweet and sassy, beautiful cat (Bootsie). Toby will most likely play the “watcher” and watch dogs play. Angus likes to play with other dogs for a bit then gets tired after awhile. Bootsie has fun with dogs playing “chase” around the house. She loves the attention! (She is declawed and has never hurt a dog). I work from home full time so I am almost always home with the furbabies. We go for walks daily (weather permitting) in our beautiful neighborhood as well as lots of playtime in our fully fenced in backyard! I'm certain your dog will have a blast with us! :) I am experienced with medical administration. I take all special instructions seriously and carefully. I 110% promise you that your pets will receive the best care there is! Hope to meet you and your furbaby(s)!! WOOF! Vanessa and Bruce

Happy puppy after 2 plus weeks! Many photos sent of joy rolls!
My dog loves Vanessa, Bruce, Angus, Toby and Bootsie the cat.They are the only caregivers I trust. Loving people are loving people...
I am always amazed at the nurturance of this family, dogs and cat included. I feel so lucky to know them.
Another great stay for our girl at Vanessa's. We love the text updates of her playing and relaxing. It's such a gift to know she's enjoying herself while we're away. Thank you again!
