About: I have 12 years of pet experience. I love fitness- so I love playfully engaging with furry friends! Also, I was a vet tech in high school, therefore, I am very knowledgeable on their demeanor and evolving needs. I do not accept dog walks that occur past sunset for safety reasons. Currently, I work remotely before starting school- so I’m always home and attentive to your pet’s needs. Unless specified otherwise, I am free during the week and some weekends. I’ve very intuitive to pets needs and cater to their personalities. Because I took vet tech in high school, I have vast experience with pets outside of dogs as well.

About: Will always treat them as my own! I have such a passion for taking care of pets. Absolutely love all kinds of fur babies/ pets! I’m a stay at home mom! I am usually always free! Just need a day or two in advance to make sure i can make it! I have two cats who can be placed in another room while pet sitting. I love going outside so i’d love to take them for walks!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the real-world experience I bring from living and working with dogs every day. I’ve raised and trained a variety of breeds, including high-drive working dogs like Dobermans and a Donovan Pinscher, and I currently share my home with three dogs and a cat. My dogs are actively involved in dog sports. Giving me a strong foundation in obedience, structure, and engagement. I understand how to meet each dog where they are—whether it’s a playful puppy needing boundaries or a senior dog requiring calm, attentive care. I take a thoughtful, balanced approach with every dog I care for, focusing on clear communication, calm energy, and consistency. My experience allows me to confidently handle dogs with different needs and personalities, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. Whether you’re looking for someone to reinforce good habits, provide mental stimulation, or simply give your pet a safe, peaceful break from home, I offer more than basic care—I bring a lifestyle built around respect, trust, and a genuine love for animals. Pet care fits naturally into my work schedule because it’s already a central part of my daily life and routine. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I’ve built my lifestyle around. With experience raising and training multiple dogs, including high-drive working breeds, I’m used to managing feeding times, structured exercise, training sessions, and downtime throughout the day. My schedule is intentionally designed to support the physical and emotional needs of the animals in my care, allowing me to provide reliable, consistent attention without it ever feeling rushed or secondary. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm, structured environment. In my home, I maintain clear routines, supervise all interactions, and ensure every animal has their own space and comfort. When in your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely, respect their space, and provide consistent, attentive care. I read body language carefully, move at your pet’s pace, and focus on building trust through calm, confident handling. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, no matter the setting.

“Vanessa was great - she also didn’t mind me over explaining lol (first time on Rover what can I say?!) She braved the rain and made sure to even play with my dog which was above and beyond what I expected. Thank you”


“Leroy was so good with my boy even when he would pull his leash out of excitement and just handled him really well. He listened to all download. I gave him about Ranger and put me at ease immediately. I was out of town for work so he picked my boy up from my parents and ended up chatting with them. Also just showing what an overall friendly and helpful person he is I would recommend him to others and my Boy being a lab is strong and he handled him really well.”


About: I've had pets starting from the age of 2, I am now 30. Ever since I can remember I have always had so much love to give to any animal I see. Whether it be a dog, cat, snake, or even donkey (yes, I've even cleaned donkey poop). Because I have always had pets in my home, I learned early on the ins and the outs on how to care for them. My first dog was a Japanese Akita, who I had until the age of 15 and was my best friend, which means I have never had any issues or even fear dealing with large dogs. By age 15 I was being asked by family/friends/& neighbors to walk/watch their pet. This particular job has always been something I take very seriously, animals are your family, and I always intend to treat them as such. I will make sure to show each and every pet I come across with as much love as I can, as well as patience and care. I will be sure to send you lots of photos of your fur baby while under my care. Whether it's for a short walk or a long week together! I am currently unemployed, so I have plenty of time to play with your fur baby. I am available any day to walk & feed your pet/s. I am also available to house sit while you are away, I typically would like at least a week notice. However, I am very flexible. Before starting any job, whether it is just to walk or feed your pet, I require meeting them first. It's important as a pet owner to feel comfortable with the person you are leaving with your fur baby, but most importantly we want your pet to feel safe/comfortable! I have done this with every new animal I have cared for and it always makes it to be a smooth and easy visit!

About: I’ve taken care of and self-trained various dogs from pugs to pit bulls, from puppies to adult dogs. They all have their own personalities that make them special. I am an educator and coach for a couple of local youth programs. My days are now free from early mornings to 3pm. Weekend times vary. As I begin my training, walking and running will be paramount. Being an animal lover will allow me to have extra fun while I train. If your dog likes to run and explore and loves affection, I am the one for them. Living near by I will walk their normal path for comfort or we could visit several paths that will excite their senses in the surrounding areas. Dogs are family members. Love is given to them as such. When I had my dog, he was given love each time I left and returned home. He had scheduled play times, training times, and “cuddle” time. I’m a firm believer that a dog should have their own space and objects and is trained on the places or objects that they should not encroach upon. I will always follow a client’s home rules whether they give their dog carte blanche or not.

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs all ages from kittens/puppies to senior. I have experience with bunny/rabbit care as well. I am very detail oriented with my notes and make myself available whenever I can. I always make sure all pets are fed, given clean water, and have some play or interaction time. I also have experience giving medicine. My favorite part is being able to give love and attention to animals because I know being away from their owners are stressful. I am patient and understanding of all situations. I am currently working remote so I am home majority of the time which makes my schedule pretty flexible. I normally only go into office twice a month. I make sure to greet the pet with love. I then will make sure their food and water is replenished. I will make sure cats get playtime and take dogs on a walk or let them run around outside in a fenced backyard. I will then make sure if they need any extra care including medication or other routines instructed by the owner. I will can stay for longer to make sure that the pet is happy before I leave.

About: I have previous experience working for a dog walking service part time. I really enjoyed getting to know the dogs I walked! I also grew up with two amazing dogs, and at one point we had four! Now we have a shepherd and a chihuahua rescue. For the next few months I am available full time Monday-Friday. I am available for dog sitting or dog walking during the week and some weekends. In the clients home I am very careful to be cautious with a new dog I meet to make sure they are comfortable! I make sure the walk is thorough and that the water bowl is always full. I enjoy playing with the dogs as well!
