I am your dog's 2nd best friend!
Pet care experience
You may say that I have a personality similar to a dog's; I am energetic, warm, and love to play. I am extremely patient and calm by virtue of working with both puppies and little kids! I love dogs and pretty much fall in love with each dog who comes my way so you can be reassured your dog will gets lots of love and attention. I have taken care of dogs of all kinds! Mini to giant, puppies to seniors, shy or hyper pups! I can tire out an energetic pup and cuddle a quiet dog. I look forward to meeting you and your pupper! I am very attentive and affectionate and will ensure your dog feels safe and loved. I will also reach out to you with any questions or techniques you use to help your dog adjust better to new situations.
Reviews
Vanessa was so kind, loving and attentive to our golden retriever Milo. We got regular updates and photos on how he was doing while we were out of town, and felt so confident that he was in the best of hands! Milo felt right at home and probably got more attention than he gets normally. Biggest of thanks to Vanessa for taking such great care of him 🐶
This was my first time using Rover and I was very nervous to leave Rue with a stranger (she really, truly is a second child to me). Vanessa was great with Rue. She sent me many photos and videos to ease my worry, and made sure Rue felt safe and loved during the NYE fireworks that scare her. I would absolutely use her service again!
Great experience, Penny seemed very happy staying with Vanessa. Vanessa was very communicative, and shared lots of cute snaps of Penny while we were away. 100% would recommend.
Vanessa was amazing! Our pup had the best time ever and that made our trip so easy and stress free. 10 out of 10 for sure and we will definitely look to board again. Thanks for being awesome.

Information Vanessa S. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know where they sleep at night, do they have separation anxiety, have they had any overnight stays with a stranger before, and any challenging behaviours (e.g., chewing) they might have.
A typical day
Walks, running, playing solo or with other dogs, cuddling, practicing the things they are learning, basically whatever they need that I am able to provide!

Availability
I mostly work from home with meetings interspersed throughout the day but go into the office 1-2 per week for ~5 hours. Weekends are very open and flexible for me. I am active and have time in my schedule before and after work to meet your dog’s exercise needs.
