About Vanessa

Experience: 5 yrs

I am a recent college graduate who has been pet sitting through Care for the last four years. I enjoy keeping busy and helping people (and animals) out in any way that I can. I have been an animal lover my entire life and believe that their happiness equates to my own. My experience working with animals includes volunteering at an animal shelter for over 5 years, working at a pet store, and caring for a variety of clients' pets. Animals I have experience caring for include: cats, dogs, ferrets, rats, chinchillas, hamsters, fish, and various reptiles. Some of the things I offer include: feeding, walking, nail trimming, grooming, exercise, playtime, transporting to veterinary appointments, cleaning, administering medication, etc. Essentially, anything you need in regards to your pet's care, I will gladly help you with. My schedule is very flexible and I am able to work holidays, weekends, and on short notice. I also provide overnight care.

Vanessa was a fabulous pet-sitter and gave us that much-needed peace of mind when we were out of town. Our two dogs -- including a dog who was rescued from a puppy mill and often shies away from people -- took to her right away and she was a natural with them. I would absolutely recommend and hire her again.
