About Vanessa
Hi there! I’m in my early 30s and currently based in Sydney. I’m a warm, caring and easy-going person who has always shared a special connection with animals. With my friendly and approachable nature, your pets and I will become mates in no time.
I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve looked after kittens just a few days old through to senior cats up to 18 years old, including those needing extra love and special care. I’ve also cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities — from rescue dogs adjusting to a new life, to much-loved family pets settling into a new home.
As a new arrival in Australia, it’s not possible for me to have my own pets right now. When I moved here, I had to leave my beloved dog and cat with my family — and I miss them dearly. That’s why caring for other people’s pets means so much to me. If you trust me with your furry family member, I’ll treat them as if they were my own, giving them plenty of love, patience and attention.
I truly enjoy spending time with animals — it makes me so happy to see them relaxed and content. I also understand that every pet has their own unique personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. It’s always rewarding to help owners feel at ease, knowing their pets are safe and well cared for.
Services I offer:
House sitting (daytime or overnight stays)
Home visits
Dog walking
Optional dog wash during walks (at a nearby self-service wash)
Basic dog grooming and hair trimming
Pet photos
Whether it’s a fun walk around the neighbourhood or some quiet cuddle time at home, I’d be delighted to care for your pet.
I can’t wait to meet you and your furry companion! 🐶🐱🐰🐹🐔🐴🐠
