Pet care experience

🎥📸 For videos and portraits of my surrogate fur babies check out their Insta page: @dogscatsandbeyondco Having grown up on a ranch, I have taken care of almost every pet of every kind. From tiny finches to giant Texas Longhorns. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me for a wide variety of services for 26 years. Animals have been the light of my life with the love and joy they bring and I look forward to returning that same affection to your fur child.

had a last minute change in our hotel arrangement and thankfully Jodie was a 3 minute walk away. we had never left our dog with someone else, and i couldnt have had a better experience. she sent us pictures and videos the entire time and we could not have been more at ease. we were worried we werent going to be able to get her back after everything haha! if we ever stay in hollywood again she'll definitely be the first person we go to!!

Jodie is awesome. My cat was well taken of and you can tell that she really cares about all the animals she cares for. I highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future.

Jodie has had Hermes a couple of times and he seems to love his stay. Happy with what I found!

I had the honor of loving a sweet Yorkie for almost 18 years. In those years she taught me me how to hand make food and treats from scratch. That brushing our beloved fur babies teeth is just as important as brushing ours. That elderly dogs need their walks broken up into three small increments (I can do longer as well depending on your dog’s needs). She taught me that rugs and/or carpet can prevent wear and tear on your pet’s legs from hopping on and off of furniture. I’ve also learned that doggie massages and medicated baths equal a stress free, itch free happy fur baby. I’m not certified in grooming but am happy to give your fur child a scrub. Last but not least she taught me how to get over my fear of needles and administer her monthly allergy injections. If you prefer that I don’t allow your fur babies on the furniture, please let me know. Otherwise they’re allowed wherever they please. I have a large balcony for babies to relax on and bark at pedestrians passing by as well haha. Seems to be the highlight of their day, so why not let them have it? Also, if there is a specific type of treat, or if you don’t want your baby having any treats, please just let me know. Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know me, and I can’t wait to get to know you and your furry loved one(s). If you choose to book with me, reviews are greatly appreciated!

Information Jodie B. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know if your fur baby is potty trained and what their potty schedule is, a dog’s breed, age, size, temperament, medical history including any medications or allergies, exercise needs, dietary needs and any behavioral issues and commands the dog knows. It’s also important to know the mom and/or dad’s contact information as well as emergency contact information for the furry baby in case of any issues that may arise.

A typical day

There is no typical day, because like people, animals have big personalities making them all wildly different individuals. Each day will be catered to your little (or big) one’s specific needs. I do love to play training games and watch them grow into pros at new tricks. I also enjoy relaxing on the safely enclosed rooftop while letting the fur babies run free for a while on top of walks. I’m close to Runyon as well, if you have a high energy pup. And I’d be lying if I said I didn’t need the exercise! Haha. If you have an elderly pet, or one with special needs, their day will still be filled with an abundance of love and attention, light/more frequent walks, and little massages at the end of the day. I also have a red light therapy brace for pets to soothe their joints after walks. And, of course, I’m more than happy to follow any further instructions from mom and/or dad.
