Pet care experience

The best care for your Furr Babies!

I am a compassionate pet caregiver with 12 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including those with medical needs, so I’m comfortable administering medications and providing extra TLC. My home features a securely fenced backyard, perfect for playtime, and I love taking adult and senior dogs on walks to keep them happy and healthy. Your furry friend will be treated like family, with plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away!

Vanya was a wonderful sitter for my little dog. Clear and prompt communication, lots of reassuring photos/updates, and a professional demeanor...I (and my dog) would re-hire Vanya with no hesitation!

Cannot recommend Vanya (and Shawn) enough! I was worried about my chilihuahua mix because he’s tentative with people — but not with them! I’m over the top happy and already have another visit booked.

Our pets seemed to like Vanya and had a good time with Vanya and her husband. She communicated with us just enough and kept them safe and active enough.

Vanya was very communicative with updates and sent a lot of photos, my dog loved staying with them and we will be looking to book again whenever needed.

Safety, trust & environment

In our home, dogs have free run of the spacious downstairs level and access to a secure, fenced backyard for fresh air and playtime. I tailor care to each pet’s needs, providing feeding services, administering medications as required, and ensuring plenty of walks and interactive play. Whether your pet stays with me or I visit your home, their comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities.

A typical day

During the day, I tailor each pet’s experience to their individual needs and preferences. If they love to be active, we’ll go for a walk and enjoy some playtime. For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, I provide a cozy, stress-free environment where they can nap, lounge, or enjoy gentle companionship. Whether it’s exploring outside, playing with toys, or simply soaking up attention, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well-cared for throughout the day.

Let me know if your pet has any special needs, such as medication or specific feeding times. I have firsthand experience providing attentive care, as my senior dog needed daily medications and special meals. He was such a wonderful companion, and caring for him taught me the importance of timely and gentle treatments. I'm happy to provide the same level of care and dedication to your furry friend!
