About Vanessa

I am an experienced pet sitter living in leafy Hawthorn with my partner and our friendly 3 year old Cocker Spaniel dog, whose name is Chicken!

I work from home in our spacious 2 bedroom apartment with adjoining communal backyard so I'm always there to keep your dog company, feed them, walk them and entertain them. Chicken is looking for friends and loves all dogs, large and small. My partner and I walk Chicken 3 times a day (short local walks, morning at 8am, lunch time and after work around 5/6pm), so your dog will come along on these walks or rest at home if they wish. I want to pet sit more doggies to give Chicken a friend and socialise him, and also as I love dogs and love their company.

I have had dogs and cats my whole life and have owned Chicken for 3 years now, raising him from a puppy and reading up lots on dog behaviour in the meantime. He is crate trained and toilet trained.

I can take pups of any age (puppies/dogs/older dogs), and any size. I just ask for them to be friendly and toilet trained, and used to apartment life or being inside apart from walks. I can only accept vaccinated pups.

I offer in house pet sitting, or I can stay over and look after your pets whilst you're away. Thanks, Vanessa.

We are so happy to have found Vanessa to look after our cocker spaniel Maple. Vanessa kept us updated with pictures the entire time we were away and made us feel at ease. Vanessa and her partner also took Maple out on exciting adventures with their own dog Chicken and it’s safe to say Maple had the best time. It was our first time leaving Maple with a dog sitter and we’d definitely recommend Vanessa!
