I make every effort to learn about your pet before we meet, including researching specific breed needs or medical conditions, all to ensure they get the very best possible experience in my care. Your dog will be pampered with belly rubs and pets, receive plenty of play engagement, and will enjoy being in my pack while you’re away.
Reviews
Nacho had another amazing stay with Jane and Tike. Jane does everything she can to accommodate schedules and make sure Nacho is happy and having fun. He loves staying with her!
Jane is excellent and highly recommended. She took on the tough assignment of boarding a 5 month old puppy and handled it very well. Most importantly, Jane is a great communicator who kept me at ease throughout the process.
Nacho loves staying with Jane and Tyke. We are so glad to have found them!
Our little Nacho had so much fun with Jane and Tike. She took great care of him, gave home his meds and special diet, and made sure he had a lot of fun at the dog park. We know Nacho can’t wait to hang out with them again.

Safety, trust & environment
My policy is to never let the dog leave my sight, even if in a fenced yards. There are many threats to an animals safety, even in one’s backyard. Please have either a secure yard if you would like my to take your dog in the yard, or provide a secure harness so I can take them for walks.

Information Jane O. would like to know about your pet
Questions I ask owners are: Do you have a harness for your dog? Does your dog get separation anxiety? Is your dog crate trained? During our meet & greet, please share any personality quirks, including sounds or tastes your especially likes or dislikes. FAQ Will you be walking other dogs at the same time? No. I do all check-ins separately and generally limit to 2 households per day to ensure each one is getting the attention and flexibility needed to stay close tho the pet’s routine. I see that you charge per day, even for walks?Correct. This means that if you need 2 visits in a day, it will be the same price as 1 visit. In addition to building relationships with “regulars”, this allows for better preparedness in the event of an emergency, like a last minute flight delay. Would you consider an overnight? I have a 11yr old, non-neutered male chihuahua who does not enjoy other dog breeds and is no longer comfortable sharing my attention at home. Overnights would only be for other chihuahua mixes and would require a meet & greet. Do I have to have a harness? Yes. Your dog must have a properly fitted harness to enjoy a walk in my care. Can I leave the key under my mat? No. You must have a lockbox or arrange to pickup/drop off your key with me at a later time. Since I only accept visits in my neighborhood, this usually isn’t an issue!
A typical day
Aside from frequent walks and outdoor play, I like encouraging zoomies daily! I get them going in the morning or evening (whatever is closest to your routine). If your dog is very social, we can arrange playtimes with other dogs at my favorite fenced dog park. Also, sharing mealtimes with the dogs and showering them with love and cuddles constantly. Your dog will love being part of my pack while you’re away!

I work from home so weekdays are an all day puppy party for me. The dogs I watch enjoy frequent breaks to go out and play/walk, and laying in my lap or close by while I work on my laptop.
