Pug mom and dog lover

Hi, neighbors and friends! I’m a millennial pug mom who loves dogs. I have raised pugs since I was 3 years old. I come from a family of dog breeders, adopters, fosters, and truly love pets as family. I am offering to love on your dog as much as I love my two pugs. I am available for drops ins visits in the morning time frames from 6-8:00 AM and evenings 6-8:00PM. I have open availability on the weekends and I am flexible! I also take dog clients to the dog park while you are at work or out of town. Coming soon: overnight boarding! Do you also need a ride to or from the airport? You are already planning a lot, I’m happy to provide ride services since I don’t live far! My mission is to help dogs feel safe with someone at home or your home if you need to leave town.

Vanessa was wonderful with Coco. And Coco loved her. She would send pics which I love. And my house was well cared for. I have booked her again for another upcoming trip.

Vanessa was a great sitter! We appreciated her reaching out to schedule a meet and greet before her sit to meet our dog. She was friendly, communicative and we will definitely use her again!

Vanessa is the most caring , respectful, loving person! When it comes to her dogs, they are her babies & I could see how much she loved them so we decided to have her as our dog walker because we knew our Oreo would be taken care of! He absolutely loves her & I know yours will too! Thank you so much Vanessa . I recommend her 1000%

Vanessa’s bubbly personality and lovable energy is a perfect match for pets. She’s also highly reliable. I would trust Vanessa to be responsible with my pets.

Schedule

I'm currently available to walk your dog in the mornings and evenings, as well as take them to the dog park for a play date. My dogs keep a routine so let us know if your dog also has a special routine so we can accommodate! I'm also happy to sit with them so they don't feel alone if you are out of town.

Safety, trust & environment

I can visit your pet and make sure they are fed and have water, play with them, let them out and take them for a walk to the dog park if you like.

A typical day

A typical day includes lots of petting and walks, making sure we enjoy a treat to relax. My favorite thing is seeing my dogs smile on their face, so I will do the same for your dog.

Is your dog shy and nervous or playful and energetic? Are they motivated with treats? I will accommodate their needs if they eat special meals at special times.
