“Tried to have someone to walk Freddy for the first time and it was a success ! He loved Holly right away and willingly went out to walk, thanks for accommodating last minute request as we fell sick and wasn’t able to walk with our 6 months old pup.”

“Jenna was punctual and responded quickly to care request. I was in a bind trying to find someone at the last minute and she pulled through. She messaged me to let me know she arrived and took a photo. Thank you so much Jenna greatly appreciated! :)”

About: I got my first cat when I was 10, and I’ve taken care of cats ever since. I currently have 3 kitties that are 13, 8, and 3. My sister also has a 6 year old Australian Shepherd who I have helped care for since he was a puppy. We have been on many hike adventures, had too many slumber parties to count, and I’ve even picked him up and cared for him post surgery. I am an animal lover, kind person, and can follow instruction. I genuinely care about animals and have deep respect for the bond one has with their beloved pet. I’m currently working part time, usually in the mornings. I can check in on your animals any day , but can only accept a pet visit that fits around my work schedule. I will try my best to match with the schedule you are looking for. I will follow all instruction I am given to care for your pet in your home and will lead with respect, attention to detail, and the upmost care.
About: With over 20 years of experience providing quality pet care, I am passionate about ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. As a proud cat owner myself, I understand the importance of treating pets like family and always go above and beyond to meet their individual needs.

I have experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities and am comfortable with everything from daily care and companionship to dog walking and exercise. Whether you need pet sitting in your home or mine, I provide reliable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s individual needs. No pet is too big or too small This is my second job, BUT my work hours are flexible. I never work more than 8 hours, and can work around pet care based on the needs of the client!! YOUR pet's safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Whether caring for your pet in my home or in yours, I strive to maintain their regular routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise requirements, and any special care requests provided by owners. In my pet-friendly condo, pets are always supervised and given plenty of attention, affection, and exercise through regular walks and playtime. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their space while ensuring their pets receive the same level of care and companionship they are accustomed to. I am attentive to each pet's individual personality and needs, and I am happy to provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away.

“Loved having Jackie walk my dogs while we were away for the weekend. She is responsive, personable and I could see first hand she loves dogs. I felt very comfortable leaving home with Jackie walking my dogs while I was away. She kept me updated and sent pics of her walks, very professional. I would definitely use Jackie in the future.”

I feel comfortable knowing Bear is walking with Veronica as she is patient and caring with him. She is able to handle him around other dogs if he gets excited, but also understands when he needs to slow down as an almost 12 year old pup now. I love that my Bear has Miss Veronica!

Jamie is fantastic she’s always early, and accommodating. From the minute our dog and our family met her she was very friendly, professional and very nice person. Our dog Mylo loves his weekly walks with her. She’s very honest and reliable, trustworthy which is why I trust Jamie to walk my dog Mylo! ❤️🥰
