Pet care experience

Trustworthy and experienced

Ever since I was a kid, my family always owned a dog or two. When I moved on my own and had my kids, I became a dog owner myself. We were blessed with 2 wonderful dogs that I have potty trained and more. Through the years, my family members have had dogs and I have helped train them and take care of them sitting for them when on vacations. Our kids are dog lovers and huggers. We have a small loving dog. She loves all the new friends that visit. Always waiting to play. Your furry loved one will be treated as part of our family during their stay since we have lots of love to give.

Vanessa is awesome. Our dog is getting older and has some peculiarities and Vanessa takes great care of her. She is also very accommodating with our chaotic schedule and odd drop-off and pick-up times. We really feel like Vanessa treats Sophie like a member of her own family.

Vanessa and her whole family took great care of our puppy while we went on vacation. She was responsive to my messages and she also sent updates with pictures and videos.

Vanessa and her family cared for both my very energetic young dog and my very low-energy senior dog. She administered oral medications to my older dog, and provided both dogs with love and care. She sent photos and was an excellent communicator when she had any questions. Her kids were so sweet with my babies, too.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dog physically and mentally. I enjoy playing catch, games and also taking walks. We can explore the areas around my neighborhood or enjoy a nice calm and relaxing time just lounging around either inside in the comfort of the AC or outside underneath a tree or on the porch.
