Pet-Loving Pro!

Pet care experience

Ever since I was six years old, pets have been an integral part of my life. Growing up in a household where dogs and cats were cherished members of our family, I developed a profound understanding of how to care for, love, and respect them. At present, I have a delightful 12-year-old dog and a playful 7-year-old cat who bring immense joy to my life. Working from home provides me with the flexibility to offer my undivided attention to their needs, ensuring they receive ample exercise, engaging walks, and rejuvenating playtime breaks. I recently completed basic dog training to further enhance my understanding of canine behavior. This knowledge allows me to provide the best possible care for dogs of all ages, whether they are energetic puppies or wise seniors. Rest assured, your furry companions will be treated with the utmost love, care, and devotion under my watch.

Vanessa was a perfect fit for my 3 year old dog, who needs a lot of TLC. Wonderful delivery and excellent pictures during my puppy’s stay

Vanessa was wonderful! Communication was super easy and our cat was so happy to have her company. She also brought up our mail and packages which was so appreciated. We’d book her again!

We left our 10 lb wanna tussle with our Akitas with Vanessa. He's a rescue and it was the first time we left him since February. She was willing to chance the outcome. This willingness speaks volumes about this sitter. We received videos numerous times a day. I highly recommend without any reservations. Undoubtedly, you'll be just as happy as we were.

Vanessa and her partner took great care of my little Mochi for a week and half. They went above and beyond what i would expect from any dog sitter. They made sure to exercise Mochi multiple times a day. They also taught my little one new tricks! Truly amazing. I had also left Mochi with a set of new treats I was hoping she would enjoy. Unbeknownst to all of us, Mochi ended up getting some diarrhea from those treats. Luckily, Vanessa was able to weed out the culprit very quickly, allowing Mochi to regain her appetite after discarding the treats. Vanessa made sure to send me plenty pictures and videos of my little one. Mochi felt right at home with them. I can't stress enough what a blessing it has been to have Vanessa take care of my little one in my absence. :D

I'd like to know as much as possible regarding your furry baby's behavior (likes and dislikes), habits, previous trainning, fears, food preferenced and food allergies as well as any medical condition or prescribed medication.

A typical day

It's important to stimulate a dog mentally and phisically, I like to take them for long walks so they explore new smells, teach them basic tricks or re-inforice previous trainning, play fetch, socialize them with well balanced dogs, at home I like to play game like toy hunt and hide and seek.
