Pet care experience

Here for you and your pet

Family, friends and acquaintances of theirs have relied on me as a source of care that they consider a piece of their family. If you’re that kinda person , I might just the right fit. I like to understand an animals personality, and created a trusted bond. I am willing to do whatever silly thing your animal requires to feel safe and loved. I am very flexible and am open to discussing your needs for safety/care and the animals need as well. Please don’t hesitate to contact me. I often am available most Holidays.

Safety, trust & environment

I did security for nine years and have a level one fingerprint clearance card. I will treat your home with respect and when watching animals and my own home, I do not watch multiple animals from different households to ensure that no issues were to ever arise in a negative altercation. I do have a preference of housesitting at clients homes due to just the comfortability of the animals environment not changing. They tend to already have a little bit of anxiety with the owner, leaving and changing their environment can sometimes for some animals heighten that anxiety.

Vannessa has watched my dogs and they love her. Every time she comes over they are excited. She plays with them, loves on them, and makes sure to feed my pets only the things I ask. She has given them their medication as expected too. I would trust her to watch my doggies anytime.

Very reliable!! takes care of my 2 box turtles and very large dog when my family goes on vacation. Very much, appreciate her communication style and the approach is understanding , she really try’s to work with people on their time preferences and the needs of their pets. She understands that an animal is an extension of your family and cares for them as such.

Schedule

Pet sitting is not just something to bring in an extra income but something that brings real joy, happiness, and fulfillment to my life. While having an animal for me, every single day isn’t realistic unfortunately ,I find that the ability to do this periodically throughout the year and to be around animals is very rewarding . This also gives me the ability to focus entirely on your animal and the comfort they need when family is away.

Vannessa can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I like to know quirks, as well as cautions. I do typically prefer meeting the animal in person before sitting, but I understand that’s not always an option provided, but I do think that it’s important because it provides a safe space ,builds familiarity when entering a home.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
