Information Vanessa S. would like to know about your pet

I love all dog breeds. My favorite breed is the Pembroke Corgi, but I have taken care of several different breeds from a chihuahua to a Great Dane

A typical day

Playing fetch, long walks, lots of hugs and kisses and belly rubs. Whatever it is that your furry friend loves your furry friend gets. With the exception of people food unless you allow that sort of treat

Passionate critter sitter

Pet care experience

I treat every animal like my own and have years of experience rescuing, fostering, and placing cats and dogs in loving homes. I’ve worked with ill and high-anxiety pets, providing patient, compassionate care. My passion is helping animals — and their owners — feel safe and supported. I offer flexible pricing to fit your needs and budget, with a military discount available.

Vanessa has taken care of my cat multiple times. She always tries to find her, but if she doesn't have any luck, she lets me know she's eating and drinking.

Thank you Vanessa for taking such great care of all of our kitties! I’m sure they will miss you. Great with the cats and made sure they were taken care of while we were away. Prompt with visits and sent lots of pics to us. ♥️ Definitely will use again!

We're a repeat customer of Vanessa's. She always tries really hard to find our cat, who is an expert at hide and seek. If she can't find her, she does report back that she's eating and using the litter box so we know all is well. Highly recommend!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
