About Vanessa V.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I rent a house and live with two cats, so most of the time I stay at the owners home. I find it’s best to keep dogs as close to their normal routines in the spaces that are familiar and safe to them. I can also help take care of minor chores then such as making sure the garbage can is out or watering plants.* not a big fan of biters since I had an infected dog bite a couple years ago and got attacked again last year while volunteering as a dog walker.
Information Vanessa V. would like to know about your pet
I love all animals, but like to have any information needed ahead of time so I can take care of them. If they have any medical needs I need to have specific instructions. I adore when owners give me information about their personality quirks as well so I can make sure I am making them feel as comfortable as possible.
A typical day
I love taking nice walks with dogs either around their usual neighborhood route or checking out a fun park or something nearby. When at home snuggle time on the couch is what I do this for to get my dog fix since I don’t have a pup of my own.

Dog person with two cats.
Pet care experience
I have taken care of pets through word of mouth for about 10-12 years and have been on Rover for a few years now. I can take care of any pet really as long as the owner can help communicate their needs.
Reviews

We always try to book with Vanessa when we go out of town. She communicates well and does a great job with our cat.


Once again Vanessa did a great job being attentive to my 2 kitties. Thanks!

Vanessa is great! Our 2 huskies love having her!
