“Olivia , really seems to love animals and Leon was always very happy to see her. No complaints followed all instructions and made herself available on short notice. Would use her again!”
“Leah was great!”
About: I have had household dogs since I was a baby I have grown up taking care of them. I dog sat for my parents frequently and still do. I am a nurse so I work 3 days a week with frequent large gaps. I am available most days and I walk on my days off. I am able to drop on visit to play with the dog, walk, feed, let outside on a flexible schedule. I can stay for awhile or I can do a quick drop in. I am flexible for the owners usual schedule for the pet!
“We had a great experience! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a Rover in the Teton valley. She was kind, timely, and our pups enjoyed their walks with her!”
About: My life has revolved around dogs! I grew up with them, have owned and expertly trained German Shorthaired Pointers (GSPs) as an adult, and possess a natural connection that dogs truly respond to. As the founder of Barron's Leash, Jackson Hole's premier pet care service, and with a history as the #1 rated Rover.com sitter in our area, I bring an exceptional level of dedication and professionalism. With hundreds of successful boarding nights and a loyal base of repeat clientele (booking with me can sometimes be a delightful challenge!), you can rest assured your pet is in highly experienced, loving, and capable hands. I'm committed to providing an elite, personalized experience for every guest. Pet care is a central and joyful priority in my daily life here in Jackson. Thanks to a flexible schedule with my other ventures (which never compromise pet care), I'm home most of the day. This allows me to dedicate significant, quality time to your furry family member, ensuring their needs for attention, potty breaks, and companionship are always met. My commitment is 100% to the pets in my care; their well-being and routine guide my day. Your pet's safety, comfort, and trust are non-negotiable. My home is a secure, dog-friendly haven featuring large windows that offer fascinating 'dog TV' – views of local deer, birds, and ducks, providing calm stimulation. My yard is securely fenced for safe play where all outdoor time is supervised and on or off leash for complete safety. I maintain a structured, respectful environment, which includes polite manners like sitting before exiting or eating. Dogs adapt quickly and thrive on this clarity! Critically, I provide 101% attention to prevent any escape possibilities – doors are always secured. When adventuring in Jackson, my deep local knowledge ensures we stick to safe trails and areas, whether on or off-leash (with your explicit permission and for well-trained dogs). Discretion is also a hallmark of my service.
“Claire took such great care of my dog Ackee! Claire was super communicative and flexible. Ackee loved her time with Claire - they went on so many adventures and I felt so good having someone who I could trust look after her.”
“Makayla was very professional and personable. She took the time to come meet our pups before the walk and talk to us and to learn about them. I would very much recommend her.”
“Donalyn was great! Very communicative and sent the cutest pics of Willow on her walk :)”

“She kills it every time!”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all ages and sizes (Cocker Spaniels to Saint Bernards) raising most of them from puppies with my family. We almost always had 3-5 dogs at a time so I am very experienced with handling single or multiple dogs at a time. I am currently raising and training a 1.5 y/o Australian Shepherd who is a ball of loving energy! I adopted him at 2mo/old and know all about puppy training and now entering the world of teenage dog-hood. We work together caring for children and other pups as he loves anyone and everything! We are an extremely active duo - taking at least one big hike every week and numerous walks throughout the day/week. We like to bike ride together so if your pup likes hiking/running/biking/playing… we would LOVE to hang out:) I’m currently working around 8-5 M-Th so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup outside of these hours! This schedule changes throughout the summer so I may be available for walks/potty breaks during the day as well. Please message for my most updated schedule! Once summer ends, I will have even more time to care for your pup(s). I have a loving, playful pup to keep yours exercised and cared for during our stay/visit. I have a dog-proofed car so I’m able to take your furry pal on adventures all over the valley if needed. I’m experienced in crating and am more than happy to chat about specific needs your pup has.
