About Vanessa
Experience: 10 yrs
Caring for animals has been a big part of my life and career for the last 10 years. I've worked with dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and needs through daycare, boarding, rescue, management, and in home pet care. I currently provide pet care as an independent contractor, caring for pets in their homes while their families are away or need an extra hand. I'm comfortable following instructions, providing updates, administering medications, and adapting my care to each pet's needs. I'm certified in Pet Tech CPR & First Aid, and canine body language. I have experience with senior, young, and special needs pets. While I'm new to this app, I'm definitely not new to pet sitting! I have experience caring for clients' pets independently and have referrals I'm happy to provide upon request! In my spare time, I love taking my poodle, Sage, on hikes, Urban Dog Bar, and dog friendly events. My boyfriend and I also enjoy exploring new restaurants and little hole in the wall spots.
Most recent review
Vanessa has been around and cared for animals her entire life, but dogs have always been especially important to her. She is patient, attentive, dependable, and naturally understands that every dog has its own personality and needs. I’ve personally seen how comfortable dogs are around her and how seriously she takes their care. I would confidently recommend Vanessa to anyone looking for a responsible, experienced, and genuinely compassionate dog caregiver.
