About Vanessa

Experience: 10 yrs

I'm a complete animal lover. I am a graduated veterinary assistant with a 3. 8 average. I've worked in a doggie daycare and boarding facility, two vet clinics, dog kennel and currently a pet shop. I've spent year's dog sitting, and even watching up to 19 dogs at a time. I'm very honest, reliable, trustworthy, and hard working. I treat every animal like they were my babies, and will always give them the love and care they deserve. I can also help people heal from Cynophobia with the assistance of my service dog Millie. She is calm, quiet, and very sweet. She loves both animals and people, and will make you feel safe. I know what it's like to be controlled by a phobia, but I was able to conquer mine (arachnophobia). So let Millie and I help you start the healing process if you or your child has a fear of dogs.

Most recent review

Taylor Van D. has been taking care of my two dogs when we are gone for a year. The dogs like her very much and almost don't want us to come back. Taylor takes very good care of the dogs and our house. I ask her to do small chores, and pay her for these, and she is very reliable. She is very neat. The house looks great when we get home. Most of all, it is clear Taylor loves animals and they love her. She has a magic touch with them.
