About Vanessa S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I follow your instructions and treat your space with respect, noting hiding spots, food preferences, and behavior cues to keep your pet at ease. Meds are given carefully, on schedule, and I stay alert to any changes in health or behavior. Whether in my home or yours, my priority is a calm, therapeutic experience for the fur babies.
Information Vanessa S. would like to know about your pet
I always require a meet-and-greet first, since knowing your pet’s personality, not just their routine, makes for a smoother visit. Helpful things to share: • Routine: feeding schedule, portions, dietary needs • Medical: meds, dosage/timing, health conditions to watch • Personality: shy or social, hiding triggers, how they warm up to new people • Comfort: favorite spots/toys, need for space vs. company • Emergency: vet contact, allergies Little details matter most, like knowing your cat only drinks from a running faucet, or needs 20 minutes before coming out from under the bed.
A typical day
Depends on the pet: wand toys and play sessions for the active ones, quiet cuddle time for the more laid-back cats, and walks or outdoor time for dogs. I let them set the pace and send photo updates along the way!

Pet care experience
Hey! I’m a work-from-home sitter in Lago Vista with 10+ years of cat experience and grew up with dogs. My husband and I used to team up, but now it’s just me visiting while he stays home with our five cats. Mom to five different cats, I get how unique each pet’s routine and quirks can be. I stick closely to your instructions- meds, feeding, whatever your pet needs- and keep things calm and low-stress. I only take local clients so I can be consistent and actually present. Since I can’t have a dog right now, time with yours is my puppy fix; I love all animals. You can expect clear updates, quick responses, and care that’s genuine and dependable.

Reviews
Vanessa did a wonderful job watching the dogs. She communicated well and sent plenty of updates.
Steven and Vanessa are an incredible team. They take great care of our pets, and go above and beyond to make us feel good being away from home. Will definitely use them again!
From the minute Steven walked into our house, both my dogs thought he was their new best friend! He is patient, sweet and kind to my pups! Steven is reliable and trustworthy! I highly recommend him!!
Steven is great with our dog... and our kid. Suffice to say, we’d leave him in charge of either. You’ll never meet a more responsible soul to care for whatever you put him in charge of. 10/10, would recommend.
