About Vanessa

Experience: 1 yr

COVID-19 vaccinated

Animals have always been a very important part of my life, and dogs, in particular, hold a special place in my heart. I am truly an animal lover, and I deeply enjoy spending time with them, understanding them, and caring for them with all the love and patience they deserve. In Colombia, I had the opportunity to take care of two Golden Retrievers, an experience that strengthened my bond with dogs and my commitment to their well-being. I loved spending time with them, playing, taking them for walks, and seeing how happy they were with simple acts of love and attention. I learned to understand their personalities, their needs, and to cherish every moment with them. For me, dogs are not just pets; they are loyal and loving companions. I always strive to provide them with an environment where they feel safe, loved, and understood. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a healthy, joyful, and energetic dog.

I highly recommend Vanessa as a pet sitter! She grew up with two dogs in her family and loves animals as if they were her own children. She is responsible, caring, and truly attentive to the needs of every pet. Vanessa ensures that animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable under her care. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just giving them affection, she goes above and beyond. She is professional, reliable, and always punctual. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family, Vanessa is the perfect choice!
