Pet care experience

I LOVE animals and they LOVE me 🐾✨

I truly love animals! I’m pretty sure it has everything to do with the special bond I share with them (especially dogs) 🐾 They love me! You’ll see 😊 My schedule is open and flexible, so that gives me plenty of time and availability to care for your four-legged baby. I am open for walks, day sitting, drop-ins and even overnights! I have a large fenced in yard where your dog can freely run around. My Puggle mix can be a bit moody around other dogs, so I do prefer your home for overnights.

Vanessa has been watching my girls Bella and Lola for years when she visits New Jersey. We absolutely adore Vanessa. She has a way with my girls that I have never seen before. She is so accommodating, sweet and always goes over and beyond for my family. She is truly a pleasure to have in our lives. We absolutely recommend Vanessa to watch over any fur baby. I will forever keep Vanessa as long as she will have us.

What a great experience I had finding Vanessa during desperate time have to fly back to CT for a family funeral. She bonded with our little Yorkie as soon as she walked in the door during our meet and greet at our house. During her stay she keep me frequently updated and had us at peace caring for our fury love during a difficult time. Lucky to find her on Rover.

Vanessa is our “go to for all dog” supervision and help. She is smart, logical, familiar with multiple breeds, patient, communicative, dependable, and reliable. Without fault. We are never in doubt and we believe her to be “extended family” as she is, in addition, hyper respectful of our home and our protocols ( both dog and lifestyle). Look no further, you have a winner.

I hired Vanessa to care for my pets during our last vacation. To say she is phenomenal doesn't even cover my satisfaction with her care for our dogs. Vanessa is very dog centered, even taking each dog for a separate walk so they could have some special attention (which is not something we expected) but the dogs love to get that personal walk and attention. We received pictures and videos throughout our vacation and daily updates on how the pups were doing. All of that made the vacation so much more enjoyable for us. And when we arrived home, the house was immaculate, and the dogs smelled wonderful! I could not say enough good about Vanessa! We will definitely be using her again and again as we plan our future trips.

Vanessa is absolutely amazing!!!! She is loved so much by my chihuahua (Truffle) and has cared for her as if Truffle was her own! I truly recommend her to anyone for the utmost care of your pet. She is patient and very understanding!

Vanessa is kind and gentle. I would trust her emphatically with my fur babies. I have seen her interact w/ her pooch and her love is unconditional. My 90 lb Stafffordshire Bull Terrier melted in her energy. During Yoga Teacher trading our mentor would bring her Pomeranian puppy (who was quite hyper) and he would navigate to Vanessa sit in her lap and be still. Vanessa can be trusted, I admire her empathetic integrity. You will not be disappointed in connecting with Vanessa and allowing her into your dog family. Let your fur baby decide, she will beam with contentedness and know she is safe and loved. Michele Prickett
