About: We have always had at least one dog for over 30 years if not horses, cows, chickens, cats, pigs...even birds! You could say we enjoy animals!

I have a fenced area off the barn for play times and an unfinished basement to play when it is to cold outside! I can adjust feeding times etc to fit your pets needs because they are all different!

About: I will dote on your pets. They will not lack feeling loved. I love to go walking and it makes it more fun with dogs. Being a renter with a flexible schedule and not traveling much makes pet-sitting a perfect gig for me. Since I can't have my own dog, taking care of other people's pets lets me enjoy the company of furry friends without the long-term commitment. It's a win-win situation—pet owners can count on me to take great care of their pets, and I get to hang out with some adorable animals, even if it's just for a little while. Building trust with my clients is a top priority when it comes to caring for their pets. I strive to ensure that they can enjoy their time away, confident in the knowledge that their beloved animals are in capable, loving hands. My clients can rest easy knowing that their pets will never be neglected under my watch, as I take great pride in providing attentive and compassionate care.

Jessiny H.
“Jessiny Howard has cared for animals since she was a little girl. When the family calico would have batches of kittens every spring and fall, the neighbors would all ask for a kitten because Jessiny spent so much time with them that they were very well trained. Growing up she cared for dogs, cats, chickens, and little lambs. She raised lambs every fall, doctoring them when they were sick and making sure all their needs were met, and she even sang to them. She was responsible for all of their care. They would follow her around the yard. As an adult she still loves animals of all kinds. She trained her own dogs incredibly well, creating healthy meals and treats and even special healthy dog birthday “cakes”. She is gentle, kind, and very intentional in her care of all animals. She has walked hundreds of miles with her own dogs, making sure they got exercise and social stimulus at dog parks and trails. A person can be 100% confident that Jessiny Howard will take excellent care of their pets.”
