In-Home Pet Care + Daily Updates

Over the past 4 years, I’ve cared for several dogs for friends, family, and referrals, gaining hands, on experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and maintaining a calm, structured environment. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and communication, I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m patient and attentive, which works especially well with shy dogs, puppies who need consistency, and older dogs who need a gentler approach. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Vanessa was an amazing cat sitter for my cat, Ruby. She was attentive, caring, and made sure Ruby felt comfortable and loved while I was away. Vanessa kept me updated regularly, which gave me so much peace of mind, and it was clear that Ruby was in great hands. I came home to a happy, relaxed cat and everything perfectly taken care of. I would absolutely recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.

Vanessa was great at taking care of my dog Jack. Jack was always so happy to see her. She has watched Jacked on numerous occasions and treated him with respect. She always made sure Jack had food to eat and water to drink and would take him on walks as well. Vanessa is very trust worthy and treats each pet as if they were her own. I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter. I still regularly use her services. If you would like any further information, please feel free to call me at (916) 385-6039.

Schedule

Pet care fits very easily into my daily routine, which means I’m always at home to give pets attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I have a very flexible and stable schedule that allows me to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship consistently. I also have a friendly 2-year-old Brussels Griffon mix who loves other dogs and enjoys having playmates. My home is calm, welcoming, and set up for pets to feel comfortable and safe.

Safety, trust & environment

I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I follow all owner instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, and any special care needs. In my home, pets are supervised throughout the day. The environment is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. I also provide regular updates and make sure each pet feels secure and well cared for.

Pets

A typical day

Your dog will be treated like part of the family. We enjoy daily walks around my peaceful neighborhood, playtime in my safe side yard, and lots of games, toys, and attention throughout the day. I love keeping dogs active and happy while also giving them time to relax and feel at home. I adjust activities to each dog’s personality, energy level, and routine to make sure they have a fun and comfortable stay.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medical conditions, or routines. I also like to learn about each dog’s personality, favorite toys, and what they enjoy. This helps me provide the best care and make their stay comfortable and fun.
