Hi, I'm Vanessa!

I've always loved animals since I was a child. Growing up, my home was always filled with small paws—from my childhood hamster Kidi and goldfish Goldy, to my two sweet guinea pigs, Winnie and Piglet. My love for dogs started when my grandmother would pick me up from school, and we'd spend time looking after her sister's Westie dog, Tia. That early bond taught me that animals are truly part of the family, and they deserve to be treated with the exact same kindness, respect, and patience we give to humans. When I was a teenager, I dog-walked weekly for my sister's friend for 6 months, and in recent years, I have helped my best friend by walking her rescue dog, Maple, and dog sitting whilst she is on holiday.

I live in the Westminster / Pimlico (SW1P) area, and my goal is simple: to give your pet a joyful, comforting experience and give you total peace of mind. Whether your dog is a high-energy ball-chaser, an easy-going stroller, or a bit more sensitive and shy, I easily adapt to their unique energy levels. I have hands-on experience walking dogs, playing, feeding, replenishing water bowls, giving cuddles and belly rubs, and taking them out for toilet breaks.

I also have hands-on experience taking care of cats—feeding them, replenishing water bowls, playing with them whether they love chasing a wand teaser or a piece of string, relaxing with them for cuddle time on their terms, brushing them and refreshing their litter boxes.

I can offer your pet true companion care, dedicated attentive presence, and a consistent familiar daily routine. I love going for walks and what makes it the most special is when it's with a furry friend 🐾. You can always expect frequent photo and video updates from our time together and outdoor adventures so you always feel connected and can be at peace knowing that your pet is happy, safe, and being well cared for. I'm consistent with feeding, exercise, and specific routines, and I promise a respectful, quiet and clean presence in your home during overnight house stays.

I would absolutely love to chat, get to know your pet's unique personality, and set up a free Meet and Greet to see if I’m the right match for you and your furry family member! Feel free to reach out and I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
