Availability

I'm currently working part time, so your pet will have plenty of play and cuddle time. I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and have my own 8-year-old Lab mix who is calm and well-socialized. I’ve handled various breeds and sizes, and I always prioritize safety and comfort. I also have 3 three kids (ages 4, 7, and 9), but they will NOT be present during boarding times to avoid stress situation for everyone. Please check availability carefully.

Pet lover with years of experience

Pet care experience

I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Throughout my life, I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets—including dogs, cats, turtles, amphibians, and even insects. Growing up, our home was always full of animals, and that experience taught me how to meet the unique needs of different species. Over the years, I’ve also helped families in my community with dog walking, feeding, and general pet care whenever they needed an extra hand. These experiences have made me patient, reliable, and confident in handling pets of all temperaments. Your pet will be in caring, experienced hands and treated like a member of the family!

Vassa is amazing. King had a wonderful time with her and Chase. She was very patient and mindful of him. She made him feel at home. She is very understanding of dogs and will give your pet the attention it needs. King and Chase are now besties!

We had a great experience with Vassa! She made sure to play with our dog every day, which we really appreciated. We also loved receiving lots of pictures and updates of Raya, it gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Her dog, Chase, got along really well with Raya, and it was clear they had a great time together. Raya came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We would definitely book with Vassa again!

Vassa is fantastic! She took extra care to make sure my pups felt at home. She has a fantastic yard that my pups were very happy to play in, as evidenced by all the amazing pictures she sent. Great communication, beautiful home, just an A+++ experience, thank you Vassa. :-)

Vasa was an absolutely outstanding pet sitter for my beagle. From the moment we met, it was clear she genuinely loves dogs and understands their needs. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and caring, making sure my beagle felt comfortable, safe, and happy the entire time. Vasa kept me updated with regular messages and photos, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She followed all instructions perfectly, paid close attention to my dog’s routine, and even went the extra mile with walks, playtime, and affection. I came home to a relaxed, well-cared-for, and very happy beagle — the best sign of excellent care. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Vasa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving, and professional pet sitter.
