Pet care experience
Hello my fellow pet parents! I moved to NYC 9 years ago from Texas. I grew up with dogs all my life, and recently moved my partner’s 8 year old, sweet Bulldog from Maui to the big city. I have 2 adorable and friendly kitties that love making new fur friends that come to hang for the day or sleep over. Buster, the bulldog, is also great with new friends and very sweet to cats. I would love being able to walk, sit, or board your pup and would enjoy hanging out with them, especially on my walks in the city! I live in the upper 80s so I’m between Carl Schurz Park and Central Park for all the dogs that love to run around and play:) For all my cat parents, I am a proud cat mom and would love to meet your cat babies. I would take care of them as if they were my own, and I totally understand different behavioral issues so please let me know what I can do to make your kitty the most comfortable! My gallery of photos will show all the pups and kitties I’ve cared for from walks to drop-in to day care and boarded. You will also see my kitties, Loma and Roo, playing with the fur friends that come and visit or stay with us at our home. My kids LOVE a good playmate 🐶🐱 My work schedule is very flexible as I work from home, so I can walk dogs or check on your kitties when needed. With my work schedule being flexible, I figured applying for Rover would be great for all my fellow pet loving New Yorkers. Please feel free to reach out with any questions!
Reviews
Vannessa took great are of my cats while I’m away! She sent detailed pictures of them every time so I know that they’re doing well. Thank you!!
Vannessa Y. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
This was my first time using Rover and Vannessa is fantastic. She's great at what she does - communicative, thorough and just easy to work with - I look forward to working with her again :)
Vannessa was so helpful to take care of my diabetic cat while I was away - I knew I could rest easy because she was around. I’ll turn to her any time I need!

For my home, I make sure it is puppy/ dog proof, as it is already cat proof with my 2 cat babies. If the pet has a crate, I will use it as owner requested. I always like to spend time at home more to watch my cats and their new furry friend adjusting to each other and hanging out with them. I will take your dogs on walk, like I would for my own dog back home or for my Rover pups! Mainly, directions that are provided will be followed to a tee.

Information Vannessa Y. would like to know about your pet
I have no preference on breed. I do want to know their behavioral issues, if any, how they get along with cats, their behavior on walks, any thing they love or would comfort them, what scares them or they don't like, what I need to be aware of, etc. BOARDING: Please make sure they are all up-to-date on their vaccines and rabies shot and flea/tick medication. For cats, PLEASE make sure they are FIV negative and safe to be around other cats. Flea/tick medication is also up to date.
A typical day
DOGS: I live by a few parks, including Central Park and I would love to take him or her on walks. If they like to run, maybe they could be a good motivation for me to want to run at the park or along the river for the nice views. There are a few dog runs and dog parks that I would enjoy to take them, if they are allowed and do well at dog parks with other dogs. Playing fetch and running around with a dog is something I love doing. CATS: for drop-ins, I will feed, refresh water bowl, scoop litter and anything else needed to be done. If the cat allows it, i love to sit and play with their favorite toy or give them lots of love, belly or head rubs. Boarding: I have 2 super playful and friendly cats that love making new friends, as long as they are nice to them. They are patient with cats who need time to adjust and just eager to play and hang out.
