Park trips,fetch,endless bellyrubs!

Pet care experience

During college I would always dog-sit for my friends on vacation. That being said, I have worked with many high-energy pups who need endless fetch and multiple walks a day! I have interned with multiple veterinarians and I am skillfully perceptive of animal behavior. I have trained with dogs and horses. Therefore, I enjoy the strong bonds that these precious animals can make with their human companions. I enjoy jogging/biking with dogs, as well as, taking them to to the park. I am unable to keep a dog of my own as of right now, so let me treat yours as I would treat my own. Exercise for our animals is just as essential and beneficial as exercise for ourselves, and remember, a tired dog is a good dog!

Vanessa did an excellent job caring for my senior dachshunds. They can be challenging at times and need a lot of patience, which Vanessa gave them. I would recommend Vanessa to anyone, she is sweet and patient. Thank you so much!!

Vanessa and her family did an amazing job taking care of our boxer, Sophie! They took her on walks, gave her lots of massages and even taught her how to jump through a hula hoop! They also worked with her pulling while taking a walk! We already booked our next visit with Vanessa and we highly recommend her!

Vanessa and her family were wonderful taking care of our dog and even teaching her new tricks during her stay. We are so happy to have found a great and reliable pet sitter in town to give us peace of mind that our dog is in good hands while we are away. We have had a perfect experience with Vanessa and look forward to the next time!

Vanessa and her family provided excellent and loving care to Skye. Their home with it's very private fenced backyard gave Skye the security she needs. They even taught her to jump through a hoop. I think she might have been a little depressed when she came home ... missing them all and missing access to to a back yard.

Information Vanessa S. would like to know about your pet

Before dog-sitting I would like to know a feeding schedule and amount of food, any food allergies, if the dog needs any medications and any triggers to be aware of. Triggers may include things like seeing other dogs on a walk or disliking vacuum cleaners!

A typical day

I will likely be walking the dog around different neighborhoods and parks.
